“Atif has previously given the music of the Marathi film Pune 52, but with Baji, apart from composing the music, Atif will also be singing his first Marathi song. Shreyas was the one who convinced Atif to sing song Shravan Shravan for this film,” says a source close to Atif, adding, “Baji is like a dream venture for Shreyas so he didn’t want to leave any stones unturned. He was actively involved even in the music of this film. He approached Atif to compose the tunes as he was highly impressed by his earlier works. He insisted Atif to sing a romantic track, too. Being a non-Maharashtrian, it was little difficult for Atif to sing this track but when the final recording was heard by Shreyas, he was highly impressed, went and hugged him.”

Meanwhile, Atif will also compose the music for Anurag Kashyap’s next bollywood flick Monsoon Shootout that stars Nawazuddin Siddique, and he has also signed a Hollywood project.
