Amitabh Bachchan is a megastar in the Bollywood Film Industry. After his maiden singing stint in Bollywood with Mere Paas Aao from ‘Mr. Natwarlal’ (1979), there was no turning back. Amitabh Bachchan has used his rich baritone to add depth and drama to a number of Hindi film songs. His voice has graced many memorable songs like Neela Aasman So Gaya, Rang Barse from ‘Silsila’ (1981), Mere Angne Mein from Laawaris (1981) and Main Yahan Tu Wahan from ‘Baghban’ (2003). He has also sung tracks like Ekla Cholo Re from ‘Kahaani’ (2012) and Piddly Si Baatein from ‘Shamitabh’ (2015) in recent years.
Now the legend is all set to croon again. Amitabh has sung not one but two tracks in his upcoming Umesh Shukla directorial ‘102 Not Out’. The actor who plays one of the leads in the film took a keen interest in the music of the film. He has shared his experience of creating the track Badumbaaa, which was entirely his idea. Big B has sung this song with his co-actor, Rishi Kapoor. Amitabh revealed that there is another track that he has sung, which is extremely special and close to his heart. It is a new rendition of the timeless classic, Waqt Ne Kiya Kya Haseen Sitam, from the movie ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’ (1959). However, there is a mention of this song in the film. The film’s original music was composed by SD Burman and this song was beautifully rendered by Geeta Dutt.
The song was arranged by Rohan Utpat and Vinayak K Salvi.
