The International R&B singer Akon is here from Tuesday to record some songs for Shah Rukh Khan’s movie ‘Ra.One’. He says that he is a huge fan of the Bollywood King.

“I am a big fan of Shah Rukh. I am very familiar with Shah Rukh’s work. I am meeting Kareena (Kapoor) for the first time today,” Akon told reporters in a press conference at Sahara Star hotel on Tuesday. The singer dedicated two lines from his song “Beautiful” to the sizzling actress Kareena Kapoor who plays a female lead in “Ra.One”.

He is not only singing but also composing song for the film. “I am also composing. You know, I will give him (Shah Rukh) a couple of versions of the song, the way I do it. And I will also integrate it with the traditional way the Bollywood films are done. I will give those options and they will decide, which one to use in the film,” said Akon.

The singer finds African entertainment traditions much similar to the Indian one. “You know the tradition in Africa is not different from India. There is same type of entertainment going on; the difference is only in language. I always wanted to expand my horizon, explore and enjoy,” said Akon who will soon be going on a world tour.

The film is produced by “Red Chilies Entertainment” that will feature Shah Rukh as a superhero.
