Amitabh, 75, also wrote on his blog about the song.
"One could sit inside the portals of a studio for hours just jamming and having the time of your life... those moments are special and precious. But with that comes the fear of the shooting of it and the apprehensions of its performing. Never a dull moment in our lives!" he wrote on the blog.
