It runs in the family: Alia Bhatt on father’s singing debut

“Music is an inseparable part of me. And every time before we record a song first I sing it. I was doing the same for ‘Mr. X’ when (composer) Jeet’s eyes shone up like a child who had found a rare gift. He said, ‘You are going to do it’. I didn’t see a reason, why not! Perhaps the song was made for me,” Mahesh said in a statement.

The ecstatic Alia too shared her feelings on micro-blogging site twitter.

Alia, who sang the unplugged version of the song “Samjhawan” for “Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania”, tweeted on Friday:
