New Delhi: Omung Kumar’s upcoming movie ‘Sarbjit’ is one of the most awaited movies of the year. Starring Randeep Hooda, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Richa Chaddha, ‘Sarbjit’ is the story of an Indian farmer who wanders into Pakistan and is imprisoned in case of mistaken identity for over two decades.
Indeed, his story has moved the entire nation and the movie is creating a buzz for all the obvious reasons.
But it’s not just the story, in fact; the music of ‘Sarbjit’ is garnering a lot of attention from the audience with songs sung by some of the top singers of Bollywood like Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Sukhwinder Singh, Arijit Singh and many more.
And as per the recent buzz, the singers of the movie have come up with a rather exceptional gesture. As a mark of tribute to Sarbjit, Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Sukhwinder Singh, and Arijit Singh didn’t charge a penny for the lending their voice to the movie.
“Singers like Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Sukhwinder Singh, and Arijit Singh who have given their melodious voice for the movie have sung for their love for the subject of the film. All the singers who are currently at the top in the music industry took this decision with their own will and love. We are grateful to them for their sweet gesture,” a source reportedly told an entertainment portal.
On the other hand Sonu Nigam also confirmed the news saying money is secondary when it comes to a movie like ‘Sarbjit’.
“I sang for Sarbjit due to the love I have for the entire team and the topic. Bhushan Kumar, Sandeep Singh and Jeet Gannguli are like my family. I have just gotten to know Omumg through the song recording, but the entire team is like my extended family. Monies are secondary,” Sonu Nigam was quoted saying.
Sunidhi Chauhan added to this saying, “You know I had left with such a good feeling after recording this song that later I didn't feel like talking about money, and that's it. You get that kind of feeling only some times. Plus it's the least I can do for the suffering of so many who get trapped and jailed out of ignorance the world over. May the film bring the issue forward for all to see and raise the right questions.”
‘Sarbjit’ will hit the theatres on May 20.
