Begum Jaan: Asha Bhosle returns with soulful track in Vidya Balan’s film

Kausar Munir has penned the song for the film, which is directed by Srijit Mukherji, and is a remake of Bengali film Rajkahini.

One of the legendary voices of the Indian music, Asha Bhosle is again ready to enthrall her fans with a soulful track in Vidya Balan’s upcoming film Begum Jaan.

Begum Jaan is the Hindi remake of Bengali film Rajkahini.

Composed by Anu Malik, the song is titled Prem Me Tohre and has a minimalist approach. While mostly heavy strings are used in the background, Asha’s voice has been given enough prominence. It’s not exactly a ‘ghazal’, but has elements of it.

Malik has intelligently used his sources to give the song a modern outlook despite keeping the old-world charm.

Begum Jaan is scheduled to hit the screens on April 14, 2017.
