Mukesh’s version was undoubtedly superb

The soundtrack of Kabhi Kabhie: Love is Life featured three versions of the title track, Kabhi Kabhi Mere Dil Mein.

While this blog contains a post on the Mukesh solo, the other versions were a duet (rendered by Lata Mangeshkar and Mukesh) and Amitabh Bachchan’s version*.

Mukesh (posthumously) bagged the Filmfare Best Male Playback Singer Award in 1977.

The track earned Sahir Ludhianvi the Best Lyricist Award at the same ceremony.

It was composed by Khayyam.

(*Note: If it were a song, it would have sounded awesome in the actor’s baritone. But he recited it.)
