Pankaj Kapur makes singing debut

The film ‘Mausam’ will mean many firsts for Pankaj Kapoor. Apart from making his directorial debut, Pankaj plans to take it up by a notch by actually agreeing to sing live at the success party being organized for film’s soundtrack.

This will be for the first time that the actor-turned-director would be singing live. He has been rehearsing and training his vocal chords for the last few days to be able to sing live and know his perfectionist attitude towards everything he does, we can be assured of a flawless performance. Kapoor is going to perform to song, ‘Saj Dhaj Ke’, a song he has sung himself in the film as well, also along with Mika Singh.

Apart from Pankaj, singers Mika Singh, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Tochi Raina, Hard Kaur etc are also going to perform live at the success party to commemorate the other tracks in the album. A source reveals, “Pankajji loves music and has a lot of knowledge of Punjabi folk songs. He gave a lot of valuable inputs to the music of the film. He keeps singing in front of his friends, but has never sung live in front of a huge gathering. He is very excited to perform live in front of the entire star cast of the film, especially his son Shahid and wife Supriya, who mean the most to him.”

Talking about the success the film’s songs have received, Pankaj Kapur says, “I am glad that the film’s music has really been appreciated and we wanted to celebrate that. We are trying to get all the singers to come and sing. I too would be singing.”
