It was jazzed up as a biggggggg celeb night! Though, after the jubilation, it was time to sort out the serious too. Akon, the famed hip hop singer was in India on the express invitation of Shah Rukh Khan to snazz upp his swanky party and record a song number for SRK’s new production: ’Ra.One’


Tunesmiths Vishal Shekhar will do their number, er, record their score with Akon and the R and B singer will show up in the music video too.



This apart, Akon plans to pull in Khan for an altruistic cause: raising funds for the Haiti earthquake victims. Weeks after the calamity, Akon joined forces with renowned musician Wyclef Jean; the duo performed at the Yele Festival in Haiti for the disaster affected.


"There is so much more that needs to be done for Haiti," asserts Akon in a media chat. "I visited the place and it was a very moving experience for me. I definitely plan to speak to Shah Rukh about raising help for the Haiti victims. The idea is to involve as many people as possible."
