Alia Bhatt turns singer; hums A R Rahman's tunes for 'Highway'

Alia Bhatt is too excited about her upcoming film 'Highway', not just because this will be her second big movie, also because she has debuted as a singer for this movie.

And cherry on the cake for her is that the songs sung by her are composed by music maestro A R Rahman.

In the film Veera (Alia's character) and Mahabir (played by Randeep) take the road and traverse through six states of northern India.

About her singing skills, Alia said, It was unreal.. I am a bathroom singer but to have the opportunity to sing a song composed by Rahman sir was unbelievable.. This film is so close to my heart not just for acting but for singing too now!

Both Imtiaz and Rahman agreed that if Alia sang a stanza herself, it would add more poignance to the scene.
