/> Bappi Lahiri is on Cloud Nine.

Recalls Bappi, "In New York there were a 100 eager contestants in the freezing snow. And the girl who topped the list was Mouli Dave. After she won she said she had a present for me. She sang the whole of my Guru song for me. It was a tough male song and she sang it so well."

Bappi auditioned contestants from all over Delhi and its neighbouring areas....Now he's all set to record a track with Jackson 5.

"That's all the five brothers of Michael. We've finalized the deal. They've signed the contract and they'll be coming down to Mumbai in July. I was with Randy and Jermaine Jackson this month.

In LA I released a meditation album with poetry Rajshri Chowdhary. It was released by Michael Jackson's brothers. Now I'm so happy they'll be singing with me."

The song will feature in a movie score. "It will be in the style patented by the Jackson 5 in the 1980s. You know Jermaine was with Shilpa Shetty in Bigg Brother. All the Jackson brothers love India and Indian music. I've met them several times."

As for the pending song with Whitney Houston, "She'll decide in a month which song she'll sing for me."
