Ms Mangeshkar’s compLa(ta)ints were melodious

If the three songs from Roti Kapda Aur Makaan (1974) were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the ascending order of their durations, Hai Hai Yeh Majboori would be the first – it was four minutes and 16 seconds long.

It was rendered by none other than Mangeshkar, and picturised on Zeenat Aman, whose compLa(ta)ints about her inability to spend time with the protagonist (Manoj Kumar) because of his do takiya di naukri (which could be translated to a lowly job) while it is raining.

Verma Malik penned the song, which Laxmikant-Pyarelal composed.
