Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh has been collaborating with various artists on his music albums. However, for the first time, he will be joining forces with the legendary music composer AR Rahman.
Rahman shared a video on Instagram which shows the music track featuring Diljit’s vocals being edited. AR Rahman shared the video with a post, “Welcoming Diljit Dosanjh to the Why? Musical …thanks for adding so much energy to the Encore!”
The Why? Musical refers to the musical that Rahman shared a few days back on page. Created by Shekhar Kapur, it features music by Rahman and is produced by Artists in Motion. His post was accompanied by details of the event, “Sifuna Nje Nje Ukadansa Dansa - Dance Of The Atoms from ‘Why, the Musical’ Why? The Musical, coming to Al Wasl Plaza in January 2022 (sic).”
Al Wasl Plaza is at the heart of Expo 2020, an exhibition hosted in Dubai and contains a huge dome that doubles up as a 360-degree laser projection surface, which is the largest of its kind in the world. In December 2021, The National News had carried details about the musical that included Kapur saying that it was an anthem to Mother Earth. It further reported that more than 100 performers and musicians were to come together for the musical.
The musical is scheduled to be premiered in January 2022.
