Kumar Sanu reveals idea behind Aashiqui’s iconic Poster after 32 Years

The romantic musical hit film ‘Aashiqui’ completed 32 years. Thus singer Kumar Sanu who sang some of the musical tracks of the movie shared how the poster of the film was finalized. He also revealed why the faces of the lead cast were not unearthed in it.

He shared how he and producer Gulshan Kumar chose the poster of the film, “While discussing the poster with Gulshan Ji, we wanted to create intrigue for the new actor.
