Shahrukh
Khan
is
a
self-confessed
fan
of
Akon's
music.
Now
that
they
have
jammed
together
for
a
song
in
Ra.One,
the
two
have
become
so
close
that
Akon
has
promised
to
give
Shahrukh
some
tips
on
"cool
rapping" in
exchange
for
Hindi
lessons
from
Shahrukh.
R&
B
singer
Akon
has
sung
in
Hindi
for
a
track
in
Shahrukh
Khan's
Ra.One.
Initially,
it
was
meant
to
be
only
a
smattering
of
words
in
Hindi.
Now
there
are
passages
of
Hindi
by
Akon.
The
absence
of
an
accent
in
his
singing
of
the
Hindi
words
in
the
track
took
Shahrukh
Khan
so
much
by
surprise
that
he
decided
to
add
some
more
Hindi
words
and
lines
into
Akon's
song
in
Ra.One.
Confirming
this,
composer
Shekhar
Ravjiani
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
duo
Vishal-Shekhar,
who
have
composed
the
Akon
track,
says,
"Akon's
Hindi
took
all
of
us
by
surprise.
It
was
almost
like
he
had
been
speaking
the
language
all
his
life.
No
one
could
believe
Akon
was
seeing
those
Hindi
lines
for
the
first
time.
He
just
rattled
of
the
lines
as
if
he
was
conversant
with
Hindi.
When
you
hear
the
song
you
will
see
no
difference
in
the
singing
quality
of
Akon's
English
and
Hindi
lines."
Ra.One
is
expected
to
have
10
tracks.
Vishal-Shekhar
are
in
the
process
of
creating
the
soundtrack.
Says
Shekhar,
"The
director
Anubhav
Sinha
has
such
a
keen
ear
for
music.
He
understands
ragas,
rhythm,
melody
and
the
format
of
music
composition.
Shahrukh
too
is
very
clued
to
world
music.
We
are
creating
the
kind
of
global
sound
in
Ra.One
which
has
never
been
heard
in
Indian
cinema
before."
