Kumar Sanu and Mahesh Bhatt

Movie-making almost always follows a series of set steps — scripting, casting and music. But in case of '90s hit Aashiqui, filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt wrote a story when he heard compositions by Kumar Sanu, and Nadeem-Shravan. In an episode of My Life, My Story, the singer revealed Aashiqui's music was ready before the film was conceptualised.
