He further added, “Aashiqui songs are actually Pakistani tracks, with words (retained). Many of the songs! Music of a composer should reflect their style. If you listen to ours, you’d instantly know it is Jatin-Lalit music, because everything was done by us.”

He further added, “Inspiration is a must, even we have been inspired. But that involves a different way of working. Jatin was a truly original composer, he would get inspired by other track, but he would never completely lift a song. In fact I was the one who would take some bits from English songs that I had heard. So I would mix bit and pieces, and only I would know what I had done. But Jatin was a pure composer,”

Aashiqui released in 1990 and starred Rahul Roy and Annu Agarwal who became overnight stars after the film’s release. While Aashiqui 2 starred Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, Aashiqui 3 will star Tripti Dimri and Kartik Aaryan.
