Abhijeet Bhattacharya and Shahrukh Khan’s connection goes back years as the former lent his voice to some of the actor’s most iconic songs, including Tumhe Jo Maine Dekha, Tauba Tumhare Ishare, Chaand Taare, I Am The Best, and Zara Sa Jhoom Loon Main, among many more. Songs like these became a part of the Bollywood Hall of Fame and cemented the playback singer as the voice of Shah Rukh. However, after a public falling out, Abhijeet sang for the actor one last time seven years ago. Recently, he opened up about the relationship the two shared, and his eagerness to collaborate again for the purpose of creating memorable music.
Abhijeet Bhattacharya opens up about how hurt he was by his public fallout with Shah Rukh Khan
Abhijeet Bhattacharya recently appeared for a candid chat on Shubhankar Mishra’s podcast, during which he opened up about how hurt he was after his public fallout with Bollywood legend, Shah Rukh Khan. For the uninitiated, things between Abhijeet and Shah Rukh first began to sour when the former felt his contributions weren’t appreciated on set. During the podcast, the veteran playback singer recounted how he felt about it all and said:
“I didn’t say it in anger. I never abused him, there are so many people who did, some named their dog after him, his contemporaries. Then Farah Khan’s husband (Shirish Kunder) insulted him, they all then hugged it out. My problem is that I was expressing my pain.”
