Pritam and KK’s collaboration was one of the biggest draws in Life In a Metro. Now ahead of the sequel Metro In Dino, Pritam shared that he misses KK.
Metro In Dino, directed by Anurag Basu, is one of the most anticipated films of the year. It is a sequel to Life In a Metro, which released in 2007, which drew fans due to its blockbuster songs- notably O Meri Jaan and Alvida, both of which were sung by KK. The singer died in 2022. On Saturday, music composer Pritam shared an emotional note stating that he missed KK the most while working on the album.
