Megastar Aamir Khan’s first cousin Tariq Khan, the ‘dancing rockstar’ of the ’70s, released the current edition of the popular book R.D.BurMania, authored by senior award-winning journalist Chaitanya Padukone from Mumbai.
At the funtion Tariq said,”It’s my honour to soft-launch this classic book of R.D. memoirs, as I also owe my stardom during the ’70s mainly to the genius composer, besides my uncle Nasir Hussain saab,”
The book gives the readers fascinating anecdotes, the master composer’s idiosyncrasies, and some startling photographs as he brings the most loved music composer of India alive. The book also includes personal views and shared memories contributed by stars like Amitabh Bachchan, composers like A. R. Rahman, and cricketing legend Sunil Gavaskar, along with a foreword by Snjay Leela Bhansali.
