Lata asked a pertinent question

If the two songs from Mehboob Ki Mehndi (1971) on this blog were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the ascending order of their durations, Jaane Kyon Log Mohabbat Kiya Karte Hain (which could be translated to, “Why do people fall in love?”) would be the first – it was four minutes and 24 seconds long.

Besides being a melodious number, it remains an unanswered question.

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

It was rendered by none other than Lata Mangeshkar.
