AR Rahman on how ‘Khwaja’ became part of Jodhaa Akbar

AR Rahman revealed that ‘Khwaja Mere Khwaja,’ the soulful track from Jodhaa Akbar, was initially a personal composition. Director Ashutosh Gowariker, seeking a song for a scene depicting Akbar’s visit to Ajmer, insisted on using Rahman’s existing spiritual piece, recognizing its profound connection. The song eventually became an integral part of the film.
