It is for the first time that the 'Dabangg' star has performed a special song with the ace choreographer-director in a film. Its a Janmashtmi number.
"There is no dancing and singing behind the trees. The film has wonderful music. There are meaningful songs," he said.
The film, based on a Gujarati play, 'Kanji Viruddh Kanji' has been directed by Umesh Shukla and is a 'divine' comedy.
