A.R.Rahman just couldn’t have had it better. While he is on an all time high courtesy the Oscars, he is all set to put the listeners on an all-time high, by having none other than Australian pop sensation Kylie Minogue to sing for his forthcoming film Blue. For the uninitiated, this film stars the dashing Akshay Kumar, dynamic Sanjay Dutt, suave Zayed Khan, along with the lovely ladies Katrina Kaif and Lara Dutta!

Produced under the banner of Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd, Blue is supposed to be India’s first ‘official’ underwater film! But something that promises to float for decades to come is none other than Rahman’s magical wand that has now got the sensational Kylie lending her magically mystical voice to not one but two of the songs in the film. While one of the songs is a duet with the supremely talented Sonu Nigam, the other is a racy solo number for the promotional video of the film. The USP of her duet track with Sonu Nigam is that while Sonu recorded the song in Mumbai, Kylie recorded the same in London, after she got a copy of Sonu’s song. How this fusion was made possible, is something that only the musical maestro A.R.Rahman can tell us!

The latest news is that Kylie will be shooting for the duet song with Akshay Kumar while gyrating to ace choreographer Farah Khan’s dancing instructions. It really seems like the makers of this film are leaving no stone unturned to give the film a truly international feel. After all, it’s only once in a ‘Blue’ moon that we get to see the clubbing of such mega talents under one roof!
