Apna Bombay [Bombay Talkies] 🎶

As many as 20 screen stars have united for a special title track for unique movie 'Bombay Talkies', which celebrates 100 years of Indian cinema.

Around 20 singers have also come together to lend their voices for the actors. For the first time, 20 singers will be part of the same song. The title track has been sung by some of the most reputed singers in the industry. And the interesting part about this is that the singers have recorded for those actors whom they generally do the playback singing for in their movies.

Some prominent singers, who have sung the track, are Sunidhi Chauhan, Shaan, Kavita Krishnamurthy, S.P. Balasubramaniam, Abhijeet, Kumar Sanu, Alka Yagnik, Mohit Chauhan, Sonu Nigam, Sudesh Bhonsle, Shreya Ghosal, Shilpa Rao, Udit Narayan, KK and Sukhwinder Singh.

Vaibhavi Merchant has beautifully choreographed 'Apna Bombay Talkies'. All the men had to wear black tuxedos and the women wore gold outfits, designed by their own stylists. The song took over a month to be shot entirely as all the actors have independently shot for their parts.

Bombay Talkies is an amalgamation of four short films by four filmmakers - Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap, Dibaker Banerjee and Karan Johar. The movie released on May 3rd, 2013 and it was also screened at Cannes film fest that year. Sridevi's shimmer gold maxi was designed by Manjaree Jindal.
