Kumar (Kisho)rendered this title song

If the subject of the previous post was the title track of Jaadugar (1989), the subject of this one was that of another Amitabh Bachchan-starrer that released the same year.

I am, of course, referring to Toofan.

The song, titled Aaya Aaya Toofan, was the last song sung by the one and only Kishore Kumar for Bachchan (who, incidentally, played magicians in both the aforementioned films).

By the way, Prakash Mehra’s arch-rival, Manmohan Desai, produced the film, which his son, Ketan Desai, helmed.

The song, which was penned by Indeevar, was composed by Anu Malik.

Jolly sang Sanu’s breakthrough song

My collection contains a couple of songs from Jaadugar, which released in 1989.

The subject of this post was the first of those (if they were arranged in the alphabetical order).

It was the title track of the film – Main Jaadugar Mera Naam Goga.

It would not be incorrect to state that it was the breakthrough song of Kumar Sanu, who went on to rule the Hindi film playback scene in the 1990s.

Jolly Mukherjee joined him behind the microphone for it.

Anjaan and Prakash Mehra, the film’s director, wrote the song, which Kalyanji-Anandji composed.

Rathod (Bhos)lent it his voice

Chandni released in 1989.

My collection contained five songs from the film, including the subject of this post.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Parbat Se Kaali Ghata Takrayi would be the last.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the penultimate one – it was four minutes and 22 seconds long.

The two people who (Bhos)lent their voices to the song were Asha and Vinod Rathod.

Anand Bakshi wrote the song, which was composed by Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma and Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia (a.k.a. Shiv-Hari).

This was a Sadhana-Sanu duet

Aasman Se Ooncha released on March 3, 1989.

The only song from the film in my collection was Jiya Pyaar Maange Jiya.

It was the title track of the film, because Aasman Se Ooncha were the three words that followed the four aforementioned ones.

The first time I heard it was during Kumar Sanu’s interview to an FM station’s YouTube channel.

The lady who joined him behind the microphone for the song was Sadhana Sargam.

The song, which was written by Shyamalal Babu Rai (better known by his pseudonym, Indeevar), was composed by Rajesh Roshan.  


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 Ind...
