Each time you interact with Irshad Kamil, the erudite discussions ensure that you add at least five new Hindi/Urdu terms to your word bank. His love for poetry and language is evident, and the enthusiasm to contribute towards the betterment of the art, perceptible. When we decide to catch up with the lyricist, known for penning the songs of Bollywood films like Rockstar (2011), Love Aaj Kal (2009), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), Sultan (2016) and Jab Harry Met Sejal (2017), at the Bandra Fort, we are surprised to spot him walk in with four young musicians.
