Talking about collaborating with Gulzar again, AR Rahman says, “Gulzar Saab’s soulful lyrics are extremely inspiring for a musician and I hope I can do justice to the lyrics and the story. I am looking forward to this collaboration.”
Gulzar adds, “It will be wonderful to collaborate with Rahman again. Subrata Roy’s life is enigmatic and inspiring. Rahman is a wonderful artist and musician and I look forward to this collaboration.”
Filmmaker Sandeep Singh shares, “It gives me unbelievable joy to bring these legends of lyrics and music together for a project that is extremely close to my heart. I have been an ardent admirer of the work of AR Rahmanji and Gulzar Saab. Their contribution to the cinema cannot be measured and I am humbled that they are a part of my project.
