Shraddha Kapoor’s love for singing doesn’t seem to fade away. The actress has crooned yet another song in Sajid Nadiadwala’s Baaghi. This time it is a love ballad called Sab Tera. Director Sabbir Khan persuaded Shraddha to lend her vocals to the track.

Talking about the song she says, “We recorded Sab Tera in a couple of hours. For me it is very important that I am satisfied with the end result, so if that means taking some more time then it’s fine.” The actress says that her biggest critic back home is her father Shakti Kapoor. “Even though my relatives from mom’s side have been into music, my true critic is my father. While I get feedback from my entire family, it is my father who is my most honest critic.”

A lot of singers have certain rituals before entering the singing booth. Some of them go on vocal rest for a day others like to drink some sort of tea, does she have any such practice? “There is no ritual as such but all I do is try to avoid having anything too cold a couple of days before recording.”

On the international scene, Shraddha can’t stop obsessing over Beyonce. “She is my number one idol. I am totally in love with her vocals. She has a strong unique voice which is flawless. Beyonce is just phenomenally talented!”

Identical brothers Laurent and Larry Bourgeois, popularly known as the dancing duo Les Twins, have a long line of collaborators including Beyonce Knowles, David Guetta and Akon. And now the French dancers will soon be lending their talents to a Bollywood film.

Mirror can report that producer Guneet Monga has roped them in for a song-and-dance sequence in Zubaan, which is directed by debutant Mozes and features Sarah Jane Dias in the lead role.

Reveals a source, "The two are very excited to be a part of a Bollywood film as it is something they haven't attempted before. Moreover, they aren't just choreographing the number, but will also be seen in the music video."

The song featuring the twosome is expected to be shot over this weekend and the Les Twins will be flying to the country tonight. However, the source insists that the song is not a fast-paced high-on-energy number, but a slow romantic track, composed by rock artist Ashutosh Pathak.

Guneet Monga, who is in Cannes, could not be reached for a comment.
