Bachchan rendered Shammi Kapoor’s composition

Shammi Kapoor’s ear for music was the stuff of legend.

Apparently, he composed Neela Aasman So Gaya on the sets of Zameer (1975).

So, it would also be appropriate to credit the actor for the tune of the Shiv-Hari track from Silsila, which was penned by Javed Akhtar.

The soundtrack of the film contained two versions of the song – a female solo and a male solo.

This blog contains a post on just one – the latter, which was rendered by Kapoor’s Zameer co-star, Amitabh Bachchan.

The former was rendered by none other than Lata Mangeshkar.
