Pic:Abhishek with American rapper Wyclef

Bollywood star Abhishek Bachchan has churned out a couple of songs with American singer Wyclef Jean while shooting for his film Dostana in Miami.

Recorded under the musical ear of top film composer Aadesh Shrivastava, Abhishek sang Main yahan ka desi don and Khai ke Banarsi paan, modified versions of the original songs. Aadesh said, "It was unbelievable. Wyclef and I were discussing a track where we needed hip-hop-rap in Hindi by an Indian star, and he said, 'How about Abheee-shake?' I jumped at the idea. I've recorded many songs with Amitji. And I've been waiting for the right opportunity to record with Junior who I know has a terrific singing voice."

Wyclef flew down from New York to ad his vocals alongside Abhishek's chorus. Admiring Abhishek's crooning, Wyclef joked, "Yehi hai right choice, AB Baby."

This is the first time an Indian actor has done a duet with an African-American rapper. The songs will be released as a tribute album to Hindi cinema and Abhishek's father Amitabh Bachchan.
