Eros International and Vijay Galani's VEER starring Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan Bollywood's biggest epic film till date is very close to the leading actor's heart.

Since the movie is penned by Salman Khan himself he wished to leave no stones unturned for his magnum opus. Hence he brought together Sajid Wajid and Oscar winner Gulzar to compose the music for VEER which is set in the 18th century.

Ask Salman what's his favorite song - and promptly he replies "Meherbaniyaan"- sung by Sonu Nigam.

Reveals a source "Salman had a great time shooting for the song and was often seen humming the song on the sets"

The song "Meherbaniyaan" sees Salman have a great time with his brother Sohail.

Might we add 50 musicians across India came together for a live orchestral recording of the film.
