A heartfelt conversation unfolded on Indian Idol Legends Return as singer Nihal Tauro spoke about his experience of working with filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya for Yeh Prem Mol Liya. Recalling his first meeting with the filmmaker, Nihal shared how Sooraj went beyond simply briefing him about the song and patiently narrated the entire film’s story, helping him understand its emotions and context.Sharing his experience, Nihal said, “Toh pehli baar jab main Sooraj Sir se mila, iss gaane ke liye maine Sir se brief poocha tha. Sir ne patiently mujhe bithake poori film ki kahaani sunayi thi. Thank you so much, Sir. Aisa kabhi nahi hua hai. I am singing for a long time now, Sir, aise kabhi bhi nahi hua hai.”Appreciating Sooraj’s way of working, Himesh Reshammiya shared that the filmmaker has a unique way of narrating stories and inspiring people through different perspectives every time. He said, “Sooraj ji toh har kisi ko kahaaniyaan sunate hain, baar-baar, every time ek nayi variation mein, ek naye tareeke se inspire hote hain.”Himesh then playfully pointed out how Nihal had thanked everyone, including Ayushmann Khurrana, Sooraj Barjatya and Sharvari, but seemed hesitant to look towards Sharvari. Teasing him, Himesh said, “Tumne Ayushmann ko thank you bola, mujhe thank you bola, tumne Sooraj ji ko thank you bola, tumne Sharvari ko bhi thank you bola. Tum aaj Sharvari ko dekh kyun nahi rahe ho? Kyunki main aaj pakad lunga, kone aankh se dekh rahe ho!”Nihal responded with a laugh, “Main thodi kam aankh se dekh raha hoon,” while his singing partner joined in with a playful compliment, saying, “Main sabse zyada ma’am ko hi dekh raha hoon, kitni sundar lag rahi hain!”The light-hearted exchange added a fun moment to an otherwise heartfelt conversation, as Nihal expressed his admiration for Sooraj’s personal involvement and the effort he takes to help singers connect with the story and emotions behind a song.Produced by Fremantle, Indian Idol Legends Return brings together celebrated personalities and talented singers for memorable musical performances and conversations.
