This song was Sure(sh)ly underrated

Spread across my blogs, Dhadkan Zara Ruk Gayi Hai was the second song from Prahaar: The Final Attack, which released in 1991.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that it was an underrated gem.

Unlike Hamari Hi Mutthi Mein (the Manna Dey solo from the film), which was a motivational song for children, this was a romantic number.

It was rendered by Suresh Wadkar.

The shorter of the two songs from the film in my collection, it was five minutes and 31 seconds long.

Mangesh Kulkarni wrote the song, which Laxmikant-Pyarelal composed.

JUSt about anybody could relate

Shiva was a Hindi film that released in 1990.

It was the remake of a Telugu film that released in 1989.

Ram Gopal Varma both of them.

In fact, they marked his debuts in the respective languages.

The only song from the film in my collection was Botany Chhodenge Matinee Dekhenge.

Even if one wasn’t a student of botany, he/she could relate to it if he/she ever bunked classes to watch the afternoon show of a film at the cinema.

S Janaki, Suresh Wadkar and Udit Narayan sang them.

Majrooh Sultanpuri wrote the Ilaiyaraaja composition.

It wASn’t original, but outstanding

My collection contains five songs from the 1990 film Dil.

But the soundtrack of the film had another fantastic song, which I hadn’t included in my playlist earlier.

It was titled O Priyaa Priyaa, and it was six minutes and three seconds long.

Anuradha Paudwal and Suresh Wadkar sang it.

Sameer wrote the Anand-Milind composition.

The song was inspired by a Telugu song titled Oh Priya Priya!

The Ilaiyaraaja composition was from a film titled Geethanjali, which released in 1989.

Veturi wrote the song, which was sung by K S Chithra and S P Balasubrahmanyam.
