Believe it or not, ace playback singer Sonu Niigam has done the unbelievable. The singer has sung in 54 voices for the same song in Farah Khan’s forthcoming comedy-thriller ‘Tees Mar Khan’
Sonu verifies, “Yes, that is true. I have sung the title track of ‘Tees Maar Khan’ in 54 voices. Maintaining a consistency in the voice and the pitch which is not yours can be very tedious.”
Filmmaker Farah Khan tells, “Only a versatile singer like Sonu can pull it off. We will approach the Guinness book of world record and if we are not successful, then I’m sure it will be listed in Limca Book of Records.”
Wonder how the idea originated? It is said that while trying different versions for the same song and Farah’s writer husband, who has also done the music for the movie, Shirish Kunder suggested that they merge all the versions together. “After I recorded several versions, it was difficult to choose any one. So Shirish incorporated all of them in one song. I am the chorus as well as the singer for this one, and all have still managed to sound different,” includes Sonu.
The singer apart from singing in several female voices has sung the song with a Japanese, Spanish, Arabic, French and several such accents. “But the one I enjoyed the most was singing in Akshay’s (Kumar) voice. In fact, I sound so much like him that even Farah couldn’t make out the difference,” Sonu tells with a smile.
As per common knowledge, no other singer has done this before for the big screen. Sonu Niigam is sure gunning for a world record!
