Speaking about this in a 2012 interview with Luka Neskovic, Bhatti said that "Life Is a Movie" is dedicated to his friend and mentor Michael Jackson. "When I look at it now it's definitely the song that I'm happy with, and the video," he stated. "But at that point in my life, what happened three years ago, was very sensitive to me. I make music of what I'm experiencing at that point of my life, my emotions are written there. Those emotions were still so strong. 'Life is a movie' is actually the first song that I wrote after what happened, you know, after he passed."

He joined the judging panel for the Norwegian Britain's Got Talent-inspired talent show Norske Talenter in 2013.
