It was a dream come true for Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan as he recently recorded ‘Paa’ title track in the presence of Chennai based legendry composer Ilaiyaaraja!
Meant to be an alternative recording session, Big B recorded the title track of ‘Paa’ at Aadesh Shrivastava’s Mumbai studio. In this title track, Big B recorded the number in the voice of 12-year old Auro.
It is believed that the song, which is composed by Ilaiyaraaja was sent across all the way from Chennai. Initially, Amitabh regretted the fact that he was unable to meet the maestro himself and record the song in his presence. However, it was a boon of sorts when director R Balki and Big B much later realised the song had to be re-recorded as it’s recording in the Mumbai studio went kaput.
Speaking to a news daily, Balki in a jovial mood said, “I guess someone up there was listening. Our recording in Mumbai of Amitji’s number suffered a leakage in the headphone. The song had to be re-done all over again. So here we are in Chennai. We’ve just recorded the title number again, this time with Amitji and Ilaiyaraaja face to face.”
News has it that R Balki and Amitabh Bachchan wish to keep the song under wraps and will be coming out with the number at an appropriate time.
