Himesh didn’t just compose it

The second song from Namastey London in this playlist, and the fifth overall, was Viraaniya.

If the were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the penultimate one – it was five minutes and 43 seconds long.

The involvement of Himesh Reshammiya in the song was not restricted to composing it.

But he lent his voice to it as well.

Interestingly, the song happened to be just a couple of seconds shorter than the other Reshammiya solo in the film, Chakna Chakna.

It was penned by the one and only Javed Akhtar.
