Imran
Khan's
upcoming
film
Once
Upon
a
Time
in
Mumbaai
Again
will
have
a
special
Tayyab
Ali
song
which
is
a
qawali.
The
genesis
of
the
song
is
taken
from
Rishi
Kapoor's
film
Amar
Akbar
Anthony.
The
song
has
been
shot
aesthetically,
and
it
features
the
lover
boy
of
B-Town,
Imran
Khan,
in
a
very
different
avatar
for
the
first
time.
Imran
will
be
seen
playing
a
Muslim
character
in
the
film,
which
is
very
new
for
his
fans.
Imran
will
be
launching
the
song
today
at
the
famous
Mohammed
Ali
Road.
The
location
was
decided
keeping
in
mind
the
theme
of
the
song.
The
makers
of
the
film
found
it
perfect
for
Imran
to
launch
the
song
at
this
unique
venue.
Even
though
the
logistics
were
a
problem,
they
managed
to
work
out
permissions
and
logistics
for
this
one.
Earlier,
the
song
was
going
to
be
launched
in
mid
July.
However,
when
the
makers
approached
Imran
for
dates
and
shared
the
idea,
Imran
requested
them
to
pre-pone
the
launch
of
the
song.
He
made
this
request
because
on
10th
July
Ramzaan
starts,
and
hence
it
would
not
be
apt
to
launch
the
song
at
that
point.
During
Ramzaan,
most
religious
ones
concentrate
on
fasting
and
praying.
In
fact,
it
is
also
considered
a
junaah
to
enjoy
oneself,
Imran
explained.
