This song was a NameSake

The soundtrack of Zamaane Ko Dikhana Hai – which released in 1981 – contained a song titled Poochho Na Yaar Kya Hua.

Its namesake featured on the soundtrack of Mast, which released in 1999.

In fact, the new song even contained a few lines from the original.

Therefore, it could be called a tribute to R D Burman (who composed the original) by Sandeep Chowta, who composed the song from Mast (which was not a Mast song by any stretch of the imagination).

The track was sung by Sadhana Sargam and Sonu Nigam.

Nitin Raikwar penned it.

 

 

Sadhana San(u)g this song too

Put 1997, Sadhana Sargam and Anand-Milind in the same sentence again, and what you get is the subject of this post.

The song in question was Tum Bin Mann Ki Baat Adhoori, and spread across my blogs, it was the second song from Mrityudand in my collection.

Kumar Sanu joined her behind the microphone for it.

It would not be incorrect to state that it was an underrated song, and I remembered it vaguely when I heard it on the radio recently (but I had to look it up online).

Javed Akhtar wrote the song.

(Ud)It was sung by Sadhana

This is the second track from the No. 1 film series (starring Govinda) on this blog.

The song in question was Mohabbat Ki Nahin Jaati, and it was from the 1997 film Hero No. 1.

(Ud)It was sung by Sadhana Sargam and Narayan.

It wouldn’t be incorrect to state that lyricist Sameer and composers Anand-Milind hit a six with this song (because that was the number of songs from the film, spread across my blogs).

But it was the longest song on the soundtrack of the film – it was five minutes and 50 seconds long. 

It was S(an)ung by Sadhana

Including the subject of this post, this was the third track from Vijaypath, which released in 1994.

But there were three differences between this song – which Anu Malik composed – and the others.

Firstly, this song began with the letter A (Aayiye Aapka Intezaar Tha), unlike the other two (which began with the letter R).

Secondly, it was written by Faaiz Anwar.

While Shyam Anuragi wrote one of the others, Zameer Kazmi wrote the other.

And thirdly, Sadhana Sargam shared singing credits with Kumar Sanu for this song.

Alka Yagnik and Sanu sang the other two.

Sargam’s solo didn’t impress Kolhapurkars

Main Kolhapur Se Aayi Hoon wasn’t the first time Madhuri Dixit returned to her Maharashtrian roots in the 1990s.

But unlike Humko Aaj Kal Hai Intezaar from Sailaab (1990), this song – from Anjaam (1994) – was a run-of-the-mill track.

If the three songs from the film – spread across my blogs – were arranged in the alphabetical order, and the descending order of their durations, it would be the last – it was five minutes and eight seconds long.

Unsurprisingly, Dixit’s lavni was the highlight of the Sadhana Sargam solo, which was written by Sameer, and composed by Anand-Milind.

Sargam sang this (Bhos)lengthy song

The subject of this post is the third song from Dil Tera Aashiq, which released in 1993.

It was titled Mujhe Kuchh Kehna Hai, and the longest of the all – it was eight minutes and 26 seconds long.

Interestingly, Sameer thought, “Aapko”, the last word of the first line, rhymed with an English line that went, “I’ve never been in love before”.

Unlike the other two songs from the film in my collection, this one wasn’t sung by Alka Yagnik – Sadhana Sargam was joined behind the microphone for it by Sudesh Bhosle.

Nadeem-Shravan composed it.

It was another Sargam-Sanu duet

Before I downloaded the subject of this post, my collection contained five songs from the 1992 film Deewana.

I recently heard another song from the film – Teri Isi Ada Pe Sanam.

It was the second song starting with the word Teri in the film.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, the Nadeem-Shravan composition – which Sadhana Sargam and Kumar Sanu sang – would be the fifth.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the last – it was five minutes and a dozen seconds long.

Sameer wrote it.

(Am)It was sung by Sadhana

Spread across my blogs, the subject of this post is the fourth track from Kishen Kanhaiya, which released in 1990.

The song in question was Aap Ko Dekh Ke*.

(Am)It was the second contribution of both Mr Kumar and Sadhana Sargam – the duo who lent it their voices – to the soundtrack of the film.

Anwar Sagar wrote the song, which was composed by Rajesh Roshan.

[*Note: I did not understand why Dekh Ke (which could be translated to, “Seeing”) was followed by Dekh Dekh Ke (which could be translated to, “Observing and then following someone”).]

Mazumdar’s item number was (b)lous(e)y

Women’s clothing have always inspired male songwriters in Hindi films. And Sameer Anjaan was no different. He wrote Jawaani Se Ab Jung Hone ...
