Anvita Dutt Says she's extremely grateful for her Directorial Debut Bulbul and Recent Release Dil Ki Shikayat

Song Dil Ki Shikayat is a real big hit now, in conversation with the lyricist Anvita Dutt, whose recently released Netflix hit film Bulbul came out, we asked her, What was her Idea behind the lyrics and the content of the song Dil Ki Shikayat? She answered "The lyrics came from the melody and its mood. Also Ayaz had given a very clear brief on the kind of song he wanted."

After her back to back success we quizzed her, How she felt after a successful debut as director of a and in the same month a successful song Dil Ki Shikayat?

She says that she is extremely blessed. Anvita has been a prominent lyricist since a long time, her repertoire includes Bachna Ae Haseeno, Dostana, Kambakkht Ishq, Student of the Year, Queen, and more. We also asked her if she enjoyed direction more or writing lyrics? and she told us "They are both very different and can’t really be compared. I enjoy both." Speaking about music producer Ayaz Ismail for his music and singer Mohit Chauhan about the song she says "The song belongs to Ayaz. Since the genesis was the melody. Mohit has always been one of my favourite singers since dooba dooba. And I love how the song sounds in his voice." Lastly we also asked her about her next project if it is a movie or a song and she says "The next movie is the one I am directing for Clean Slate Filmz. No song lined up as yet. Waiting for the phone to ring."

We also got a chance to speak to Ayaz and ask him a quick question about his experience and his next projects, he says "He said the experience with Anvita and Mohit was fantastic. Anvita was amazing to work with, very swift, thoughtful, and a smooth process. It took us a while but we finally had the song recorded. Nonetheless, it was a dream to work for Mohit Chauhan. I have a couple of Bollywood single tracks lined up with various artists. And I have a Tamil song which is coming up next as well. And an English track lined up too. We are working on a special project too where we are launching seasons of music. I want to explore Jazz and music in different languages"
