The songs of #Aashiqui 2 supplied the breakthrough for a younger #Arijit Singh looking for his foothold as a playback singer in #Hindi cinema.
#Arijit Singh and KK each lent their voices to the #Aashiqui 2 soundtrack.
KK recorded #Aashiqui 2 songs
#Aashiqui 2 was a non secular successor to the 1991 superhit Aashiqui. Like the predecessor, the #Aditya Roy Kapur and #Shraddha Kapoor-starrer was additionally heavy on its music. Director #Mohit Suri says that he went with KK for the voice of Rahul Jaykar, Aditya’s character.
In an unique chat with HT, Mohit says, “When I was making #Aashiqui 2, I recorded the songs in KK’s voice, and I had done many songs with him, like Kya Mujhe Pyaar Hai and all. But after I recorded that voice, I realised that voice was right for Emraan (Hashmi), a generation earlier. But #Aditya Roy Kapur was coming in, and I wanted to find a new guy.”
How #Arijit Singh got here on board
Mohit says that he then began to search for a brand new voice, for which he ‘auditioned everybody attainable’. Eventually, he got here throughout Arijit’s voice and appeared for him. “I went insane looking for someone called Arijit. I realised this is the voice required for the film. Putting in anyone already established would not cut it,” he provides.
Composed by Jeet Ganguli (with #Mithoon and #Ankit Tiwari serving as visitor composers), the soundtrack of #Aashiqui 2 was a smash hit. Almost all of the songs of the album topped the charts. Tracks like #Tum Hi Ho, Bhula Dena, Chahun Main Ya Na, Aasan Nahin Yahan, and Milne Hai Mujhse Aayi have been all sung by Arijit. Each one was a grand success. KK did sing one tune within the album – Piya Aaye Na. That, too, was a hit.
#Mohit Suri’s upcoming movie
#Mohit Suri is returning to the romance style together with his upcoming movie, Saiyaara. It stars newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. Tanishk Bagchi composed the movie’s music. Saiyaara will launch on 18 July.
