Ms Mangeshkar’s rendition was magnificent

The two standalone female solos on the soundtrack of Sharmeelee were as dissimilar to each other as is chalk is to cheese.

This blog contains a post on just one of them* – Megha Chhaye Aadhi Raat, which Lata Mangeshkar rendered.

Gopaldas Saxena ‘Neeraj’ penned the S D Burman composition. 

(*Note: The other was Reshmi Ujala Hai Makhmali Andhera, which was sung by Asha Bhosle. I had heard it a few times on the radio, but I didn’t know it was from Sharmeelee till I looked up the film’s soundtrack online. It isn’t on the blog.)
