MUMBAI: Aamir Khan is in the news again. He has gone ahead and convinced the late Bimal Roy’s family to let him use the hit song ‘Dil Tadap Tadap Ke Kaha Raha Hai Aa Bhi Jaa’ of the Dilip Kumar-Vyjayanthimala-starrer Madhumati for his production Dhobi Ghat.
Permission taken, the song will be mouthed by Aamair Khan and newcomer Monica Dogra who plays the female lead.
The film has Khan playing a painter who lives and works from a tiny studio apartment in the noisy and congested Bhendi Bazar.
Oscar award-winner Argentine music composer Gustavo Santaolalla who had earlier scored music for Brokeback Mountain, Babel and The Motorcycle Diaries provides music for the film.
Directed by Khan’s wife Kiran Rao, the film also stars Prateik Babbar.
