    Explaining how she got on board for the track which features Shah Rukh and Anushka Sharma, Shaimaa said: "Sony Music India were scouting for an Middle Eastern talent to sing the Arabic version of the song 'Radha' and they eventually discovered me through Dubai based A&R Consultant/Music Producer Richard Hussein who connected with my Producer Richard Elhaj."
     
    "We all ideated through the collaboration and I found the project fascinating. We love Shah Rukh in Egypt and thought this would be a great collaboration to celebrate Shah Rukh's popularity in our region," she added.
     
    "Jab Harry Met Sejal" revolves around how Sejal (Anushka) bumps into tour-guide Harry (Shah Rukh) and together they set off visiting the exact same spots that she and her family visited -- in the hope of finding her lost engagement ring.
