Actors exercise their vocal chords

Actors seem to have taken to singing with a vengeance. Take a look...


We don't know if this is a case of moonlighting or done for pure fun. Many Bollywood actors are exercising their vocal chords. Let's get into discussing who's a better crooner, but for now, take a look at who's singing what.

Shah Rukh Khan:

He has sung previously for the film Josh. Now, he has just finished singing the new version of "Kaike Paan Banaras Waala" for Farhan Akhtar's Don.

Unmindful of being compared with Amitabh Bachchan, SRK has gone by the diktats of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and tried his luck.

Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi:

Munnabhai and Circuit have crooned together for the sequel of Munnabhai titled Lage Raho Munnabhai. Catch them on television crooning "Samjo Ho Hi Gaya", composed by Shantanu Moitra.

Gracy Singh:

The actress seemed to have disappeared after Lagaan, Munnabhai MBBS and Gangaajal. She has resurfaced to act and sing for the film Chanchal.

Meera:

This Pakistani actress will be seen in Pakistan's version of Devdas. While attempting to be at par with Aishwarya Rai, she will also be singing for the film.

Akshay Kumar:

No, he isn't singing for one of his new films. But alongside launching his own website, he's sung a song for the Punjabi album Nirgun Lakh Liya and dedicated it to the Mumbai blast victims.

Akshaye Khanna:

He's in the reckoning post 36 China Town. For his next film Aap Ki Khatir, which has music by Himmesh Reshammiya, he has recorded a nazm. Reportedly, the nazm bears a resemblance to the all-time hit Kabhi Kabhi.

We are sure there will be new additions to this list. While the actors take the acid test, let's wait to see if anyone belts out hit numbers like Aamir Khan did in Ghulam or Abhishek Bachchan in Bluffmaster.

SANGEETHA DEVI. K
