LyriKally, this track was outstanding

Once upon a time, the purpose of a song in a Hindi film WAS to take its story forward. I’ve deliberately used the past tense because most of today’s songs fail to do so.

But what if I told you about a track that wasn’t just about the lives of truck drivers, but was a journey itself too?

Well, the track in question was Raah Pe Rehte Hain.

It was the only song from Namkeen (1982) on this blog.

Gulzar penned the track, which was composed by R D Burman and (Kisho)rendered by Mr Kumar.
