“Sooha Saaha” was the track Alia Bhatt sang in her film ‘Highway‘ and the world came to know about Alia’s singing talent. And now, Alia is going to once again showcase her singing talent by crooning track “Samjhawan” from her upcoming film ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania‘. We earlier reported about Alia unveiling the song in her voice, which is sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Arijit Singh in the film.
As the producer Karan Johar believes in giving a chance to rising talents, he came up with an idea to record the song in Alia’s voice and made her sing the song. The track sung by Alia is called “Samjhawan Unplugged” and it will be unleashed on select online portals on July 2 and an exclusive video of the song will be out on July 4, reportedly. Alia will be performing live in front of the media and the audience today and the event arrangements are entirely done by none other than the lead actor of the film, Varun Dhawan. Alia has dedicated this song to Varun. This song will definitely fuel up the fan base of Alia.
