Playback singer Chandana Dixit has recalled the time when she was lost out a song to the legendary Asha Bhosle in a Hrithik Roshan film.
The year was 2000, and the song in question is “Jaaneman jaaneman” in Hrithik’s debut film “Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai”, which would go on to become a blockbuster.
“The first dubbing I did was for the somng ‘Husn hain suhana’ (in the 1995 release ‘Coolie No. 1’) and my voice was retained in the final cut. That is how I started my journey in Bollywood playback singing. From then on, my voice was never replaced by any singers except for once. There was that song ‘Jaaneman janeman’ in ‘Kaho Na… Pyaar Hai’. I believe initially Asha ji recorded the song. I do not know why the music directors called me in the studio and asked me to sing the song. Then Asha ji re-recorded the song and my voice was not there in the final track. I think there was some miscommunication,” Chandana told IANS.
