Singer Nakash Aziz, who lent his voice for Salman Khan's film "Bajrangi Bhaijaan", says it "feels like a dream" to associate with the superstar.

"I think 'Maine Pyar Kiya' would have been one of the first few films I would have seen as a kid, so ever since I came to senses in the real world, I have known Salman to be a superstar. And now, it feels like a dream to be associated with him," Nakash told IANS.

Nakash sang the song "Selfie le le re" in "Bajrangi Bhaijaan".

He has now sung the song "Jabra fan" (Fan Anthem) in superstar Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film "Fan".

Asked about his experience working with both Salman and SRK, Nakash said: "Singing for the Khans is something that I never prepared myself for. I am very poor when it comes to approaching people. I feel that I do not want to invade someone's personal space by going and approaching them as a fan. I believe one should respect the privacy of a public figure."

"When I went up to Shah Rukh khan as I could not hold myself back and to my surprise the SRK actually recognised me and greeted me," he added.

Directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra, "Fan" also features Shriya Pilgaonkar among others. The film is slated for an April 15 release.
