Mid-Day

This man does not only act, he throws mean punches and apparently can even sing! For his upcoming film with Neeraj Pandey, Akki turned singer. The actor crooned for a romantic song in it. While he has also lent his voice for a couple of numbers earlier in Singh Is Kinng and Chandni Chowk To China, this will be Akshay’s first full-fledged track.

A source informs, “The song is called Mujh mein tu. Neeraj wanted Akshay to sing a song right from the beginning. It took music director MM Kreem and Neeraj a good month to convince Akshay.”

And finally when the actor agreed, he trained for five months daily to perfect his voice. The source adds, “He took up the challenge seriously and delivered what was simply amazing.”

Neeraj says, “Kreemji and I were really keen that he should sing this song and he has sung it beautifully.”
