Arivu joined Neeti and Vishal

As long as I can remember, I have preferred listening to the radio to watching television.

And one of the former taglines of a popular Indian FM station was Whattefun.

If that word were split into two, one would get Whatte Fun, which happened to be the second song from Ram Setu on this playlist, and the last of the four from it.

The shortest track in the film, it was three minutes and 37 seconds long.

Irshad Kamil wrote the Ajay-Atul composition.

Neeti Mohan, Vishal Dadlani, and Arivu lent their voices to the song.

Mr Sharma (Ha)sang it too

With the addition of this post, and the next one, there were four songs from Ram Setu (2022) in my collection.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Bahut Din Beete would be the first.

And if they were arranged in the ascending order of their durations, it would be the second – it was three minutes and 55 seconds long.

The involvement of Ved Sharma in the song wasn’t restricted to composing it, but he was also one of the two men who (Ha)sang it.

Raja was the other.

Manoj Muntashir Shukla penned it.

Armaan’s version was included too

When the soundtrack of a film has multiple versions of a song, I usually include just one.

But for no apparent reason, I made an exception for Sukoon, from Nazar Andaaz.

The female version of the song happened to be on my playlist about songs from Hindi films that released in the 2020s.

And I decided to add the male version to this one.

Armaan Malik lent his voice to it.

Raj Shekhar wrote the Vishal Mishra composition, which, interestingly, was as long as the female version – it was four minutes and 21 seconds long.

Mrs Tandon sang this song

If Sachet Tandon was one of the two people who lent their voices to the only duet on the soundtrack of Nazar Andaaz, his better half – Parampara Tandon – was assigned a solo in the film.

It was titled Jadoo (which isn’t a word one would associate with any of the Hindi film songs now).

If the songs in the film were arranged in the alphabetical order, it would be the second.

And it was the third-longest song on its soundtrack – it was three minutes and 29 seconds long.

Raj Shekhar wrote the Vishal Mishra composition.

Jubin lent it his voice

Nazar Andaaz released in 2022.

With the addition of this song, and the next two, to my collection, there were half-a-dozen songs from the film in my collection.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, the subject of this post would be the first – only a singer of Jubin Nautiyal’s calibre could turn an Aadhi Kahani and turn it into a poora gaana.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the second – it was three-and-a-half minutes long.

Raj Shekhar wrote the song, which Vishal Mishra composed. 

The singing credits were VAgue

Hum Hindustani released in 1960.

The opening line of its title track was Chhodo Kal Ki Baatein.

A recreated version of that song happened to be the fifth song from Sooryavanshi (2021) in my collection.

Alphabetically, it would be the second of those.

And if they were arranged in the ascending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was just two minutes long.

Various Artistes sang it.

Prem Dhawan, who wrote the original, was credited with writing this version too.

Tanishk Bagchi, unsurprisingly, shared composing credits with the original composer, Usha Khanna. 

Joshi and Khan sang it

Sherni released in 2021.

If the two songs from the film were arranged in the alphabetical order, an alliteratively-titled song would be the first.

The name of same track was Bandar Baant.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the second – it would be three minutes and 16 seconds long.

The two people who lent the song their voices were Aishwarya Joshi and Roshan Khan.

It was written by Hussain Haidry, and composed by Bandish Projekt (a.k.a. Mayur Narvekar, who was also a producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist).
