Mangeshkar sang this popuLa(ta)r song

This blog contains a post on just one track from Nagina (1986). It happened to be the last song on this blog.

The song in question was Main Teri Dushman Dushman Tu Mera.

It was the only contribution of the one and only Lata Mangeshkar to the film’s soundtrack.

The track, which Anand Bakshi penned, was composed by Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar and Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that it was the first film in the ‘his(s)’tory of Hindi films to spawn a sequel – Nigahen: Nagina Part II (1989).

It wA(zi)z indeed (Manh)arelated song

The soundtrack of Naam contained a couple of versions of Tu Kal Chala Jayega.

But this blog contained a post on just one – the duet, which was rendered by Manhar and Mohammed Aziz.

The other version was a solo, rendered by the latter. It was (Udh)asad version.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that while Aziz rendered three of the six songs in the film, the Udhas brothers were the stars of its soundtrack.

The song, which was penned by Anand Bakshi, was composed by Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar and Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma. 

It became poPUlar with NRIs

In a country where one of the most favoured means of communication in the 21^st century (e-mail) can create a stir, a track that began with the word Chitthi became very popular, especially with non-resident Indians (NRIs).

The song in question was Chitthi Aayi Hai.

If the two tracks from Naam (1986) were arranged in the alphabetical order, it would be the first.

Pankaj Udhas’ involvement in the track wasn’t restricted to rendering it, but it was picturised on him too.

Anand Bakshi penned the track, which Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar and Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma composed.

This patriotiK song was aMAzing

Aye Watan Tere Liye was the title track of Karma, which released in 1986.

Not only was it the only song from the film on this blog, but it was also one of the most popular patriotic songs of all time from Hindi films.

The aforementioned line, which was penned by Anand Bakshi, was preceded by a line that went, “Dil diya hai, jaan bhi denge” (which could be translated to, “We have given our hearts, and can lay down our lives as well”).

The Laxmikant-Pyarelal composition was rendered by Kavita Krishnamurthy and Mohammed Aziz.

Undoubtedly, (Am)it wAs(h)a B(hosl)eautiful duet

Tomorrow (September 8, 2019) is the 86^th birthday of the (Bhos)legendary singer Asha.

Roz Roz Ankhon Tale – the only song from Jeeva (1986) on this blog – was the last track by her on this blog.

She was joined behind the microphone by none other than Amit Kumar.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that the song was underrated, but over the years, it has become popular.

The shortest song on the film’s soundtrack, it was four minutes and 14 seconds long.

It was penned by Gulzar, and composed by R D Burman.

Sapna (Kisho)rendered this (Ku)marvellous track

By no means would it be incorrect to state that Tera Saath Hai Kitna Pyara, from Janbaaz, was a very melodious track.

It was the only contribution of the one and only Kishore Kumar to the soundtrack of the film.

No prizes for guessing that he was joined behind the microphone by Sapna Mukherjee.

The hook of the track, which was penned by Indeevar, went, “Humein aana padega duniya mein dobara” (which could be translated to, “I will have to reborn in this world”).

It was composed by Kalyanji Virji Shah and Anandji Virji Shah.

Sapna's solo was recreated too

Of the four songs from Janbaaz on this blog, only one was a solo.

The track in question was Pyar Do Pyar Lo, and it was rendered by Sapna Mukherjee.

It was penned by Indeevar, and composed by Kalyanji Virji Shah and Anandji Virji Shah.

It was the second song in the film that was recreated. There’s no two ways about the fact that the recreated version was a nightmare for the listeners, who responded to it using the title of the 2011 film on whose soundtrack it featured – Thank You, but no thank you.
