Amaal Malik composed 'Salamat' when he was 17

"I had made this tune when I was 17 years old. Mahesh Bhatt heard this song five years ago, and he wanted it to become the first song of 'Sarbjit'. So, I ran to the studio to sing it out in front of Bhushan Kumar and Bhatt and in no time the song was completed," Amaal, 24, said in a statement.

"I hope my song is loved by the masses as it touches their hearts and hits the right emotional chord." he added.
