Rahul Vaidya will sing in 'Shaadi No.1'

It's champagne time for Indian Idol Abhijeet Sawant, no doubt. But there's another lad who is celebrating with the bubbly too: Rahul Vaidya, one of the last four, who will start his playback singing career in Vashu Bhagnani's Shaadi No.1.

Vashu Bhagnani has asked Vaidya to lend his singing talent (unquestionable) to his forthcoming film Shaadi No.1 directed by David Dhawan. Vaidya has agreed.

When contacted, Bhagnani said, "Annu Malik music director of Shaadi No 1 kept telling me that Vaidya is extremely talented. I hadn't watched the earlier episodes of Indian Idol but at Anu's insistence when I did watch, I got hooked to the programme, especially Vaidya."

Bhagnani further informs that the song would be picturised on Fardeen Khan, Zayed Khan and Sharman Joshi. "Rahul's voice will be utilised for all the three heroes in the same song. I can't spill the details on how that would be done. But I promise, it's a beautiful song," he gushes.

Rahul Vaidya has recently signed a contract worth Rs. 20 lakhs with Sony Entertainment Television. Vaidya was unavailable for comment. But his sister Shruti offered, "His contract with Sony debars him from participating and judging any singing competition on any other channel, or doing any albums, for 60 days. Bhagnani's song will not be a problem."

"As far as I know, I can record with him anytime after 7 June. I may organise the song recording for 9 June," Bhagnani added.

Dhawan and Bhagnani are doing a film together after six years, their last joint effort being Biwi No 1.

Shaadi No 1 which is a laugh-a-riot stars Fardeen Khan, Zayed Khan, Sharman Joshi, Esha Deol, Soha Ali Khan, Ayesha Takia, Sophia Chaudhry, Riya Sen, Aarti Chhabria, Satish Shah and Rajpal Yadav.
