Anjaana-a-a-a anjaani-i-i-i. a peppy track from the Ranbir Kapoor-Priyanka Chopra starrer Anjaana Anjaani is on high rotation on music channels and FM Radio. Hear it once and you are likely to get hooked on to its rhythm.
The fast-paced catchy number has been rendered by Monali Thakur and Nikhil D’Souza. A former Indian Idol contestant, Monali is best known as the singer of racy numbers like Zaraa zaraa touch me and Khwab dekhe jhoothe moothe from Race.
Though Monali has sung in some Hindi films since then, including Khudaya khair in Billu and Ishq mein in Prince, she is making news for her latest song. “Since I am young, I loved the song even when I sang it, for it has a youthful feel to it,” grins Monali. “And to think, the song was almost axed from the film.
They had another title- track, which is why Siddharth Anand decided to chuck this song. I was really heartbroken, but then fortunately they had a re-think and the song was back. At the last minute, a video was shot and this became the title-track. It was just meant to be,” informs the youngster happily.
It was in December last year that Monali called up Vishal Dadlani and requested him to give her a hearing. She told him that she would sing ‘live’ without instruments and crooned Leona Lewis’ international hit Bleeding love. Impressed, Vishal promised that he would get in touch with her for the right song, and within a few days, they called her for this track. “I am glad that I got to sing the last-minute club track,” beams the singer.
