Arijit Singh has been in news since the last few months for all the wrong reasons (remember his spat with Salman Khan). But now, here’s a good news for his fans. The singer has sung all the songs in Karan Johar’s ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ and has also revealed that Ranbir Kapoor plays the role of a professional singer in the movie.
Talking about singing songs in this film, Arijit said, “I’ve done it earlier in ‘Aashiqui 2’, where Aditya Roy Kapur played a singer. Now with Ranbir, I am again giving voice to the character of a professional singer and it’s different, more challenging than the usual playback singing. Ranbir had already shot the title song with a scratch recording. I sat and observed Ranbir emoting to the words. Then recorded my songs.”
“Ranbir isn’t just using my voice in the film. He is experiencing and savouring the words, letting them flow into his soul. It’s such a pleasure to sing for him because as a professional playback singer, I know Ranbir’s screen presence will carry my song very far,” he added.
Well, the singer says, they are still recording songs for the movie. He said, “We haven’t decided on how many songs I will sing for Ranbir. But I can tell you this. Whatever Dada (composer Pritam Chakraborty) and Karan Johar decide, it will all add up to a grand musical experience. And for those who are raving about my first song for Ranbir in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, here’s news. My second song for Ranbir is even better. I rate it as one of the best songs I’ve sung so far.”
