Lata and Kishore were apt

If the two songs from Souten (1983) on this blog were arranged in the alphabetical order, Shayad Meri Shaadi Ka Khayal would be the first.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that given their real-life marital statuses, the pair who (Kisho)rendered it was apt – Lata Mangeshkar is a spinster, and Mr Kumar, of course, was well into his fourth marriage at that point.

The Usha Khanna composition earned Kumar, and Saawan Kumar Tak, nominations in the Best Male Playback Singer category and the Best Lyricist category, respectively, at the 31st Filmfare Awards.
