Mumbai: Legendary artist Amit Kumar is travelling in a time machine. The artist has started a new series with the cover version of his own songs which became super hits at some point in the 70s, 80s and 90s. He is choosing songs from the requests of countless fans who visit his fan page on Facebook and bringing back his own songs set to new age music arrangements. In this context, Amit said, "Many fans have been requesting their favourite songs sung by me. Performing on stage is not happening in this current scenario for over a year and a half. So I planned to choose my own songs from the requests that everyone wants to listen to and re-recorded some of those songs. Now everyone can enjoy listening to them with new age sounds."
At first I did ‘Bade
Acchhe Lagte Hai’, then ‘Roz Roz Aankhon Tale’. The first song got two lakh
views on YouTube, the second one a lakh views on merit. There are also some
stories behind the songs too." The official fan page has crossed one
million subscribers on merit recently.
The hit song from ‘Saailab’
'Mujhko Yeh Zindagi Lagti Hai Ajnabi' has just been released. Written by Javed
Akhtar it has music by Bappi Lahiri. Sung for Aditya Pancholi it became very
popular at the time. Amit added, "Besides my own songs, I have done a
series of my favourite Western songs which have been much appreciated. Many
people wanted me to sing my favourite Western numbers. I enjoyed doing it. I
have my own compositions too. Kumar Brothers Music will release more of my songs
tuned by me in the coming days," he added.
