On Wednesday, the team of Sushant Singh Rajput's upcoming film 'Dil Bechara' paid a musical tribute to the late actor. Composed by AR Rahman with lyrics penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya, the film's album features nine tracks.
In a 13 minute-long pre-recorded video, the musical team of the film came together to offer their tributes. The video began with Oscar-winning music composer AR Rahman singing the title track of the film, along with his son AR Ameen, daughter Raheema Rahman and musician Hiral Viradia from Chennai. Rahman said the 'Dil Bechara' album has found a "new meaning" and stands as a dedication to Rajput.
"The music of 'Dil Bechara' will always remain special to all of us. The nine tracks I composed for the film have a whole new meaning today, a whole new life. I wish Mukesh Chhabra and everyone who is part of this project my best wishes.
"May the Almighty give us the hope and strength to brave these challenging times. These songs are dedicated to the loving memory of Sushant Singh Rajput," the composer said.
Singer Sunidhi Chauhan, too, paid a musical tribute to Rajput. She sang the track "Maskhari" along with Hriday Gattani.
Chauhan said the track aims to capture the fun side of the late actor. "I think this song connects Sushant of reel and real life. Perhaps this is a small glimpse of his off-screen playful and mischievous self," she said.
This was followed by singer Mohit Chauhan who sang the ballad "Tare Ginn" with Shreya Ghoshal, dedicating it to Rajput's love for celestial bodies.
"Sushant was fascinated with space, stars, astronomy. He had even bought a plot on the moon! He had a telescope and would often look out for stars and the moon through that. So this song is dedicated to his passion," the singer said.
Later, singer Jonita Gandhi, along with Gattani, sang the slow-paced "Main Tumhara", which many have dubbed as the theme song of the film.
"Though Sushant isn't with us physically, he shall forever be with us, through his memories, through his promises. I'm so glad to be a part of a soundtrack that will help us all remember Sushant forever," Gandhi said from Toronto, Canada.
The film is set to start streaming on Disney+Hotstar from July 24.
