Manoj Muntashir Shares Untold Story Behind MS Dhoni Song 'Kaun Tujhe' and Its Last-Minute Change
Manoj Muntashir: Lyricist Manoj Muntashir has made a big revelation about the song "Kaun Tujhe Yun." Find out what he revealed...
Lyricist and writer Manoj Muntashir talked about an interesting story regarding the famous song "Kaun Tujhe Yun Pyar Karega" of the film "MS Dhoni: The Untold Story" during an episode of the TV show "Tum Ho Na" presented by Rajeev Khandelwal. He mentioned the discussion that took place during the making of the song.
He talked about the discussion that took place during the making of the song, and he revealed that there was something funny that occurred when they were filming for the song. Not many people knew about this story. In fact, the song was actually planned to be sung by a man, not a woman.
So, my situation is, Mr. M.S. Dhoni is a legend, and his character was being played by our younger brother, Sushant Singh Rajput. But when the song was composed in a male voice, our director, Neeraj Pandey, and Bhushan Kumar felt that our captain is very shy.
You can't imagine Dhoni declaring his love like this. This isn't MS Dhoni's character. I said, "That's right, let's write something else." We couldn't come up with anything as good. About 10-15 days passed, and Neeraj Pandey came up with the idea. MS Dhoni can't sing for his girlfriend; a girlfriend can sing for him. Let it be a female song.
Manoj concluded by expressing how relieved and grateful the entire team felt that the song ultimately remained a part of the film. He said, "We're all so happy that the song wasn't removed from the film."
During the conversation, Manoj also revealed that the song's origins were deeply personal and stemmed from a simple moment he shared with his son. Recalling the incident, he said that his son innocently said, "Mummy loves me more." This immediately triggered a playful reaction within him, leading to a line that eventually became part of the film.
A timeless tune. Manoj quickly said to his son, "Who will love you the way I do?" Hearing this, Rajiv immediately said, "And the song is done." Talking about the song, it was filmed on Sushant Singh Rajput and Disha Patani.
