Pakistani out, Hindustani in!


Indians are Indians when it comes to patriotism. Even if the talent across the border is the best, the Hindustani feeling always reigns. Literally in this case, for Sunny Hindustani, the young talent from the Indian Idol 11, recommended by Vishal Dadlani and roped in by composer Shamir Tandon, has actually replaced the legendary Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in the song ‘Main Jaanta Hoon’ of the Emraan Hashmi starrer, The Body. 

That’s not all! A little birdie tells us that a scared Sunny Hindustani managed to impress Shamir Tandon at a one-take recording in his studio. And what’s more is that Emraan Hashmi seems to have developed a liking for the duo’s soulful melody. “I like music that touches the soul. When Sunny Khanna made me hear this song composed by Shamir (Tandon) and sung by Sunny Hindustani, I loved its nuances, the delicate melody and its meaningful lyrics.”

Will we get to hear more from the duo in Emraan’s next… only time will tell!
