“Not only did the experimental genius compose evergreen chartbuster songs for my films, RDB even cooked fabulous food which I would fondly relish during late-nights we spent together. Honestly, his innovative music was  ‘instrumental’ in boosting my acting career to a great extent, whether it was for Jawani Diwani or  for Rampur Ka Lakshman or my own directorial movie Dharam Karam” recalls Randhir.
