Behind the Scenes of Akon's 'Chammak Challo'



In a private session in the studio, Akon sits down with music composers Vishal and Shekhar. The conversation between the threesome has left us in hysterics, especially when they
translate to Akon what the term 'Chammak Challo' means, Village Hottie? At this point in time, Akon is left feeling utterly confused and looks like his about to depart from B-town anytime soon. However the professional singer keeps his cool and actually makes a few notes about the wording of the song. Literally five minutes later Akon gets up and stands in front of the mic and sings the first line, which to us sounds absolutely amazing for someone who doesn’t know much about the language. It’s got to be one of the best renditions in a Bollywood studio given by an international singer! Akon also shows off his humble side as he thanks his producer Shahrukh Khan for his hospitality, and bringing together world music. Has Akon succeeded in showing that music has no barriers?
