In a gesture that reflects his hands-on approach, Aamir Khan visited Arijit Singh’s hometown, Murshidabad, for the recording of Ek Din’s first song, as Aamir Khan Productions released a special video featuring the beautifully rendered track sung by Arijit.
Aamir and Arijit bond over Ek Din
Aamir had travelled to meet Arijit to convince him to reconsider his reported retirement. Speculation was put to rest when Aamir shared a poster and thanked Arijit for lending his voice to his upcoming film Ek Din, starring Sai Pallavi and Junaid Khan. Aamir stayed in Murshidabad for four days with Arijit and his family to personally persuade him to sing for the film. Known as one of the most loved singers in the country, Arijit’s emotional voice was exactly what Aamir envisioned for this romantic story.
Arijit and Aamir worked closely on the film’s first track, leading to the release of the soulful Ek Din title song. With touching lyrics and heartfelt music, the track feels like a timeless love anthem. The special video captures simple, warm behind-the-scenes moments from Murshidabad, with Aamir involved in every detail—discussing, guiding, and shaping the song alongside Arijit and the team, making the collaboration truly special.
