The song was released within a week or so of my recording the song for him," Chinmayi told PTI."I guess Shahid and Ileana didn't know of me.

Chinmayi Sripada notched up another musical hit in 'Phata Poster Nikhla Hero.

Pritam had briefed the singer on how he would like the track to be."Once he heard what I sent him, he asked me to redo a couple of lines which I sent him later from Chennai. It is quite normal these days to record a song in the absence of the composer," she said.Chinmayi has recently rendered 'Sitakokachiluka' with music composer Shekhar, a single whose proceeds will go to Ma Niketan, a non-profit organisation that takes care of abandoned girl children in Mumbai."He chose to work in Telugu first and I recommended that Rakendu Mouli, an upcoming, but very good lyricist write the words in the song. He did an outstanding job."The singer also doesn't think the process of sound recording has become mechanical."I don't feel the process of sound recording has become mechanical. However I shall also say that the veterans know both eras. Which someone in my generation doesn't. I don't know what the process of rehearsals and song recording is at all as I have not experienced that to have a comparative study.
