The ‘title track’ was (Ku)marvellous

Koi Hota Jisko Apna wasn’t just the ‘title track’ of Mere Apne*, but it wouldn’t be incorrect to state that it was also one of the most underrated songs of the one and only Kishore Kumar.

The longer of the two songs from the film on this blog, it was three minutes and 27 seconds long. In other words, it was just a second longer than Haal Chaal Theek Thaak Hai.

Gulzar penned the Salil Choudhury composition.

(*Note: A line of the opening stanza of the song contained the phrase, “Mera apna”. Well, close enough.)
