New Delhi: Shashi Tharoor crooned ‘Ek Ajnabee Haseena Se Yoon Mulaqat Ho Gayi…’ recently. He attended an event in Srinagar where he was asked to sing a song at the end of the meet. The writer and Member of Parliament took to social media to share a video from the event where he is seen singing Kishore Kumar’s song.
Lyricist Javed Akhtar couldn’t resist his reaction! Finding it amusing he took a dig at the politician for his Hindi pronunciation and tweeted, “Wow! We have almost a similar song in Hindi too!!! .”
Sharing the video, Shashi Tharoor wrote, “After the cultural programme by Doordarshan Srinagar for the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology, I was persuaded to sing for the Members. Unrehearsed and amateur but do enjoy! (sic).”
