Asked to step into the studio to record a song, Nikhita Gandhi recalls her first reaction. “I said, hey, I know that song,” she says, referring to the rehashed version of the title track of Ishq Vishk (2003), which features in the upcoming film, Ishq Vishk Rebound. “It was a throwback to my childhood, and I was told Rochak [Kohli, composer] would be dubbing with the original singer [Sonu Nigam] as well. It’s my first duet with him. I didn’t know if things would eventually materialise, because, sometimes, singers get replaced after a dub, but I got to know that [my voice was being retained].”
