King

composed

here’s
the
whole
story
from
the
director
R
Balki
himself.

“It
all
happened
very
impromptu.
I
had
asked
Amitji
to
see
the
movie
(Chup).
After
seeing
it,
he
called
me
over
and
he
played
me
a
tune
on
his
piano
and
said
that’s
what
the
movie
and
the
characters
made
him
feel.
He
was
very
touched.
I
was
ecstatic.
I
asked
him
if
I
could
use
the
tune
and
he
immediately
gifted
it
to
the
movie.
Today
Chup
is
the
first
film
that
has
got
Amitji’s
official
composition
as
the
score
for
the
credits.”
