Sanju will mark the first ever collaboration of the industry legends Rajkumar Hirani and A R Rahman.
While the album has been composed by Rohan – Rohan and Vikram Montrose, the phenomenal music composer has composed two tracks for the biopic on Sanjay Dutt. Rajkumar Hirani reveals that producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s dissatisfaction with one of the songs in the album led them to knock on Rahman’s door.
Rajkumar Hirani shares that, “Since the song had already been shot, it wouldn’t have been possible to record another number and re-shoot it. So, we needed someone to create a new song keeping in mind these visuals. Considering it required tremendous expertise, Vinod suggested Rahman’s name. We called him and he immediately agreed to help us. I was touched by his humility.”
