Aamir sings for Ghulam
Aamir Khan recently rendered a duet with Alka Yagnik for Mukesh Bhatt’s Ghulam under the baton of Jatin-Lalit. The original score was composed by Nitin, an upcoming music director from Gujarat. “Nitin had casually mentioned about the song that he wanted to be picturised on me," elaborates Aamir. When I heard the song, Aati kya Khandala..., Mukesh and director Vikram Bhatt were so impressed with it that they insisted I should sing it myself for the film. Jatin and Lalit consented most willingly to incorporate this number on the album and recorded it accordingly,” explains Aamir.
