Singer Mika Singh, who has sung playback for Akshay Kumar in Housefull 3, says that the superstar is his lucky charm.
At the unveiling of his song Taang Uthake for the film, Singh said: “My first song Singh Is Kinng was a big hit because of him, and then Chinta Ta, eight to ten songs, I can’t even remember all the songs.
“And so many times, I don’t even have to work hard. When Akshay paaji does a good dance, the song becomes a hit. And in this, all three of them [including Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh] are there, so it is just the icing on the cake,” Singh added.
Singh had also sung the song Dhanno from the first part of the Housefull franchise. He has also sung Bhutni Ke from Singh Is Kinng, Long Drive from Khiladi 786 and Subah Hone Na De from Desi Boyz.
Asked about his favourite from the lot, Singh said: “All the songs, but Singh Is Kinng is an all-time favourite, which has become an anthem.”
Kumar said that his favourite Singh song for him was Subah Hone Na De. He then quipped: “We should also give a bit of credit to the music director,” referring to Taang Uthake composer, Sohail Sen.
Singh said: “He is very talented, and deserves appreciation. He has also made the song Tune Maari Entriyaan so he’s very talented.”
Singh also sang a medley of his songs at the event.
Housefull 3 is directed by Sajid-Farhad and also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and Lisa Haydon.
