Aamir Khan had travelled to meet Arijit Singh to convince him to rethink his reported retirement. The speculations were put to rest when Aamir shared a poster and thanked Arijit for lending his voice to his upcoming film Ek Din, starring Sai Pallavi and Junaid Khan, under Aamir Khan Productions. Aamir had gone to Arijit’s hometown, Murshidabad, and stayed there for four days with Arijit and his family, to persuade him to reconsider his reported retirement and personally request him to sing for the film. Known as one of the biggest and most loved singers in the country, Arijit’s emotional voice was exactly what Aamir wanted for this romantic story.
Arijit and Aamir worked closely on the film’s first track. Their collaboration has now led to the release of the soulful Ek Din title track. With touching lyrics and heartfelt music, the song feels like a timeless love anthem. The special video shows simple and warm behind-the-scenes moments from Murshidabad, with Aamir involved in every detail, discussing, guiding, and shaping the track with Arijit and the team, making the collaboration truly special.

As a producer and a father backing his son’s journey, his quiet commitment behind the scenes adds an extra layer of meaning to Ek Din, making the film feel even more personal and special.
