But do you know the story behind it? Recently in a conversation with ETimes, singer Honey Singh revealed that Shah Rukh Khan didn’t like the song at first.
Honey Singh said, ‘I have always had trouble composing music for Bollywood. When Shah Rukh bhai called me to make a song for Chennai Express, he asked me to make something like ‘English Beat’. I asked him why, he said because the song was a huge hit. I told him that I will not make such a song, but will make a number which has his vibe. I did lungi dance and he didn’t like it. He took three weeks to decide whether he should sing or not.
Earlier, speaking to news agency PTI, Shah Rukh Khan praised the track saying, “I found it very apt for Rajini sir and wanted to be a part of it as a fan of one of the greatest actors we have.” . Deepika, on my request, happily agreed to be a part of the song as she is also a huge fan of Rajini sir. The song is fun, happy and totally Rajinikanth style.”
