Lata was the only choice

It is crystal clear that continuity was the buzzword as far as the soundtrack of Mera Gaon Mera Desh was concerned.

Therefore, it wouldn’t be incorrect to state that while the track in question (Maar Diya Jaaye) was about a choice, it was Lata Mangeshkar who lent it her voice.

The listeners, of course, had to choose between sun liya jaaye (listening to the song) and skip kiya jaaye (skipping it). And everyone knows what they did.

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