Happy Birthday Arijit Singh: The singer once sang Aamir Khan’s favorite song, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’s title song. He was showered with praise for the actor. Watch a video. Espanyol, in the last match.
Singer Arijit Singh once found a huge fan in actor Aamir Khan, who showered him with praises. Arijit and Aamir Khan were part of a Covid-19 fundraiser where the latter played chess with world champion and Indian grandmaster Vishwanathan Anand.
During the Checkmate COVID Celebrity Edition, Arijit was asked to say something before signing out. He started saying, “Closing thoughts are a big hug to…” but Aamir interrupted saying, “Aese nahi chalega, aese nahi chalega (It won’t work this way).” Laughing Arijit asked, “Phir kaese chalega (Then how)?” Aamir replied, “Ek do line gaa k sunao yaar (Sing a few lines).”
When Arijit asked Aamir which song he wanted him to sing, the actor replied, “Mera favourite toh tujhe pata hi hai (You know my favourite song).” At this, Arijit asked him which song he was talking about and Aamir said, “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
Arjit then asked them to wait for a moment as he got his guitar. Aamir said, “Hann guitar lelo (Ya take your guitar). He’s amazing, he’s such an amazing singer. Such an amazing singer. I’ve seen him live so many times and each time he blows my mind. Toh main sab kuch chhor ke, main ekdum stage k aage baith jaata hun. Ki yeh chance dobara mile kab mile, apun sunte hai bhai (I leave everything and sit in front of the stage. Let’s listen to him, don’t know when I will get a chance again).”
