Hindi cinema's super singer Sukhwinder has recorded a song for Danny Boyle's film 'Slum Dog Millionaire'. Starring Irrfan Khan and Anil Kapoor, its music is given by AR Rehman.

"Lyrics of the song were amazing. It is written by Gulzaar saab and music is naturally peppy, the way all Rehman songs are. I loved singing Jai Ho and I must have sung the song so many times that eventually Rehman got really perplexed. Now they are wondering who would edit all the versions and which version is the best," laughs Sukhwinder. 

Film is based on a true story, and it's about a kid from the slums of Mumbai, who has nothing – he's ill educated, he's illiterate – and he goes on the Hindi version of 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' and wins it. It has tongue-in-cheek humour. This film is written by Simon Beaufoy.

As for Sukhwinder Singh he is all set to ride the Hollywood wave after winning over Indian audience with his voice and melody. His other Hollywood venture as music director and singer is Steven Spielberg's next film. For this film Sukhwinder is recording a kutch song.

"I chose folk because it will stand out in the crowd. I refused to take any techno music because Hollywood is way ahead in it. We need to have our own flavour and make our mark with what is ours."
