Alia Bhatt shot for Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani's romantic song, Tum Kya Mile, right after the birth of her daughter Raha. Four months into motherhood, the actress was back on sets, looking stunning as ever. The Arijit Singh-Shreya Ghoshal song was filmed in Kashmir with Ranveer Singh and Alia. In an interview with Hindustan Times, choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant revealed Alia visited Shah Rukh Khan to understand the nuance of lip-syncing.
At the press conference of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani held in Mumbai on Thursday, Alia spoke about visiting her Dear Zindagi co-star Shah Rukh to train in lip-syncing. The actress shared that she spent 2-3 hours with the superstar who not just trained her but also taught his daughter Suhana Khan the art of lip-sync.
Alia said, "This was my little secret. I was really nervous. I was resuming work after a couple of months. For the first time, I was doing a proper after Ishq Wala Love. I realised that I could do better. So, I told Karan. He told me that I should speak with Shah Rukh and that he'll share some tips. I called him and talked on the phone. I wanted to understand from him because nobody lip-syncs like him. He told me, 'Tu ghar aa ja (You just come home). Suhana also wants to learn. Toh tum dono ka saath mein tuition karenge! Toh tu gaana leke aa ja (I will give you both tuitions together, you just bring the song)'."

The actress further added, "I was there for 2-3 hours. Suhana (Khan) and I - we both were singing the song. There's a whole lip sync portion that Shreya has sung beautifully. The way he broke it down...he even downloaded some apps. He said 'Yeh baar baar karo (So this again and again)'. He learned the song by the end of it. It shows how large-hearted and generous that man is. He's so wonderful and ever willing to help! That experience will be irreplaceable in my life."
Tum Kya Mile was the first song to release from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani's album. Composed by Pritam, the lyrics were penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya.
