Lata's lone contribution was outstanding

When I began creating my playlist, Tere Liye Palkon Ki Jhalar Bunoon was the only song I knew from Harjaee.

Although a literal translation would make no sense, it could be translated to, “I'll weave a decoration of my eyelids for you”.

Of course, I knew it was rendered by Lata Mangeshkar. In fact, it was her only contribution to the soundtrack of the film.

But it wasn’t until recently that I read the names of the lyricist and the music director.

The track was penned by Nida Fazli, and composed by R D Burman.
