Ms Mangeshkar (Kisho)rendered a gem

The longer of the two tracks from Heera Panna on this blog was Panna Ki Tamanna Hai – it was five minutes and 49 seconds long.

In fact, it was the longest song on the film’s soundtrack.

The song, which was penned by Anand Bakshi and composed by R D Burman could be interpreted in two ways – Heera, the name of Dev Anand’s character in the film, is also Hindi for diamond.

And it was truly a gem.

Lata Mangeshkar and Kumar (Kisho)rendered the track, which was 14th on the Binaca Geetmala annual list for 1974.
