After actress Alia Bhatt, it's her father and filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt who has made his singing debut and the star daughter is happy about it.

Mahesh will debut as a singer in Emraan Hashmi-starrer 3D thriller "Mr X". He will sing a song titled "You can call me X" for the Vikram Bhatt directorial.

"Music is an inseparable part of me. And every time before we record a song first I sing it. I was doing the same for 'Mr. X' when (composer) Jeet's eyes shone up like a child who had found a rare gift. He said, 'You are going to do it'. I didn't see a reason, why not! Perhaps the song was made for me," Mahesh said in a statement.

The ecstatic Alia too shared her feelings on micro-blogging site twitter.

"It runs in the family !!!!!! @MaheshNBhat"," Alia, who sang the unplugged version of the song "Samjhawan" for "Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania", tweeted Friday.
