Amitabh Bachchan lents his voice for Chehre's title track

Amitabh Bachchan took his social media handles and shared the first glimpse of the title track of his upcoming movie Chehre. In a black and white montage layered with stunning VFX, Bachchan recites a stirring poem with the powerful punchline, "Jism chale jayenge, zinda rahenge chehre.'' Anand Pandit, the producer of the movie said that he had always been a fan of Bachchan's oratorial skills from the time he  brought to life the poetry of Sahir Ludhiyanvi and Javed Akhtar in classics like Kabhi Kabhie and Silsila.

Producer of the film Anand Pandit in a media statement said, "The poem is so well-written by  Rumi Jafry and sums up the powerful theme of the film. The suspense and mysterious elements in the film all come together wonderfully in the score. In April this year, Vishal-Shekhar had recorded the orchestral rendition of the title track with 107 musicians in Prague. Shekhar Ravjiani has composed the tune beautifully. And now Amit ji has lent his matchless voice to add another dimension altogether to the track. He is a perfectionist and you just have to hear the title track to be mesmerised by every intonation, pause and emphasis. His voice was made for poetry."
