Sachin-Jigar said:
- Jigar Sarvaiya of the popular composer duo Sachin-Jigar said in a statement.
- “Yes, it’s true that Sidharth will be rapping for the song. It is what we call authentic rap like what Eminem does in the West and incidentally, Eminem is Sidharth’s favourite artiste.”
- It’s a new age R&B song, a first of its kind in Bollywood and is in complete sync with his in-film character.
- At first, we weren’t sure of whether this would work but the first scratch itself was a hit and we decided to go ahead.
- Sachin Sanghavi said it was his idea to get Sidharth to rap.
- Because he understands the genre of hip hop and rap to a great extent.
- We discussed a lot about music in general in the studio and,
- If given a chance once again we would love to collaborate with him again.
- In addition,he has a baritone voice which is hard to miss.
- We are very excited with the kind of music we have scored for ‘A Gentleman’.
- It’s very experimental and diverse and we are touching upon every genre possible,he added.
- Sachin-Jigar are also composing for films like “Simran” and “Bhoomi”.
