New friendship blooming in B-Town?

 

Initially, Akon was committed only for an interlude here and there amidst the main soundtracks, but things changed when the R&B artist, famous for his songs such as 'Smack That' and 'The Sweet Escape', uttered his lines in perfect, crystal clear Hindi. That, without an accent!

 

SRK, composer Shekhar Ravijani and director Anubhav Sinha were so impressed, that King Khan promptly decided to add a few more Hindi lines to Akon's part, who himself was only too glad to oblige. Shekhar Ravijani has confirmed the buzz himself.

Apparently, ever since SRK and Akon worked together for this said song for Ra.One, which has been in the pipeline for quite a while now, the two have struck off a great camaraderie. The duo have now agreed to exchange a few lessons - with Akon promising SRK some tips on rapping if SRK in return, taught him some more Hindi.
