Dunki: Lyricist javed akhtar created history, took such a huge amount for a song of 'Dunki'
This year, three films by superstar shahrukh khan were released. After giving two blockbusters one after the other, king Khan's recent release 'Dinky' is also performing well. Along with the story of this film directed by Rajkumar Hirani, its songs are also being liked by the people. The most liked song in this list is 'Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se', which comes at the end of the film. This song has been written by veteran lyricist javed akhtar, but do you know? How much money did he take to write this? Let us tell you.
According to media reports, the amount of money charged by javed akhtar for writing the song 'Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se' from the film 'Dinky' is a record in itself. To date, no lyricist in hindi cinema has received so much money for writing just one song. It is being told that he took Rs 25 lakh to write it. At the same time, it is also discussed that initially, javed akhtar had rejected Rajkumar Hirani's proposal, but later agreed to write this song after some conditions.
Recently, lyricist javed akhtar revealed in a show why he agreed to write this song. He said, 'I usually don't write just one song in a film. Raju Hirani sir asked me to write the lyrics of just one song. I refused, but he insisted and said, 'No one can write this song except you.' After this, I put some conditions before him and then wrote it. Javed Akhtar further said, 'They agreed to those conditions without blinking. This is not my miracle, this is the miracle of Raju Hirani, who had 5 super-duper hit films behind him, he understood that I would get this song from this man. Ego was not overpowering him, rather his love for his film was overpowering him. Salute to him!'
At the same time, in an interview, Raju Hirani talked about writing a love story for the first time. He said, 'Since Shahrukh is in the lead role in the film, I don't think you can get away from it. 'Dinky' was initially about people going abroad illegally, but as the film progressed it became a love story. Because we had to show the journey of 25 years in the film and what happens to people when they get separated. In this way, this film became a love story. However, this was not its intention.
