The
Baadshah
of
Bollywood
has
done
it
again.
And
if
you
are
wondering
what
we
are
talking
about,
it's
Shahrukh
Khan
getting
behind
the
mike
once
again
to
sing
a
song,
this
time
for
his
Kolkata
Knight
Riders
music
album.
Shahrukh
first
sang
the
popular
number
"Apun
Bola" in
the
film
Josh
in
the
year
2000.
Thereafter,
he
has
not
really
sung
a
full-fledged
song
but
has
done
a
few
things
which
come
close
to
singing
like
reciting
a
few
lines
of
poetry
in
Shaurya,
giving
a
motivational
message
in
Chak
De
India,
a
few
lines
in
Don
and
even
rapping
a
bit
in
his
music
video
Kar
Le
Kar
Le
Tu
Ek
Sawaal.
So,
it
is
indeed
a
big
bonus
for
die-hard
Shahrukh
fans
to
get
to
hear
their
favourite
star
sing
a
full
song.
The
man
who
has
got
the
superstar
sing
to
his
tunes
is
none
other
than
Disco-King
Bappi
Lahiri.
Asked
on
the
song
and
Shahrukh's
singing
skills,
Bappi
Da
said,
"Yes,
it
was
a
great
pleasure
recording
a
number
with
Shahrukh.
He
is
truly
the
Baadshah
of
Bollywood.
We
recorded
this
song
called
'Run
Just
Run"
which
talks
about
running
ahead
in
life
and
not
just
on
the
cricket
field.
Whatever
has
happened
earlier
is
a
thing
of
the
past…so
just
keep
moving
ahead
and
do
not
look
back
is
what
the
song
is
trying
to
convey.
This
is
the
first
time
Shahrukh
has
sung
a
hip-hop
number.
He
has
not
just
hummed
a
few
lines
here
and
there
but
has
sung
the
whole
song
along
with
backing
vocals".
So
was
King
Khan
nervous
or
did
he
sail
through
it
smoothly?
"He
was
very
comfortable
and
has
sung
very
well.
In
my
36
years,
I
have
had
the
privilege
of
getting
some
big
stars
like
Amitabh
Bachchan,
Anil
Kapoor
etc.
to
sing
for
me
and
now
getting
Shahrukh
to
sing
is
truly
amazing.
He
gave
the
exact
attitude
and
feel
which
was
needed
for
this
song
and
I
am
really
very
happy.
I
am
sure
when
the
song
hits
the
market
(very
soon),
it
will
create
total
hungama,"
claims
Bappi
Da
Is
it
true
that
there
are
2
versions
of
this
song?
"Yes,
I
have
composed
3
songs
for
Shahrukh's
album.
The
main
song
is
"Run
Just
Run"-
a
solo
version
sung
by
Shahrukh
himself,
there
is
another
version
of
this
hip-hop
number
sung
by
Kunal
Ganjawala.
The
lyrics
for
these
2
songs
have
been
written
by
Virag
Mishra.
There
is
also
a
third
song
which
Usha
Uthup
has
sung
which
has
some
Bengali
words
like
'Anando
Hi
Anando' meaning
total
happiness.
It's
also
an
encouraging
song
with
a
winning
attitude,
written
by
Deepak
Sneh.
Usha
has
also
sung
it
very
well
and
we
both
always
make
a
winning
combination,"
smiles
Bappi
Da.
So,
when
is
the
album
likely
to
release?
"Very
soon…I
believe
within
3-4
days
it
should
be
out
in
the
market," says
the
veteran
composer.
And
finally,
would
we
also
be
seeing
another
music
video
for
this
SRK
hip-hop
number
"Run
Just
Run"?
"Yes
of
course...
Ganesh
Hegde
is
choreographing
the
video",
signs
off
Bappi
Da.
