Even tAporiS were not impressed

Aye Chhori Tu Tapori was the only song from Taqdeerwala (1995) in my collection.

Though it was a catchy number, it would not be incorrect to state that it did not impress either chhoris (girls) or taporis (vagabonds).

I remembered the song, which Sameer Anjaan wrote, because of the line that went, “Kya mast jeans hai”.

The two people who lent their voices to the song were Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu.

The former was the voice of the soundtrack.

The track, which was composed by Anand-Milind, was five minutes and a dozen seconds long.

Only Yagnik’s version was included

Raja released in 1995.

My collection contained four tracks from the film, including the subject of this post.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, the female version of Tumne Agar Pyaar Se – which was rendered by none other than Alka Yagnik – would be the last.

And if they were arranged in the descending order, it would be the third – it was five minutes and 43 seconds long.

Sameer Anjaan wrote the Nadeem-Shravan composition.

(*Note: The male version of the song was sung by Udit Narayan. It was as long as the female version.)

It was a Lata solo

With the addition of this song to my collection, it contained five songs from Karan Arjun, which released in 1995.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Ek Munda would be the second.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was seven minutes and 38 seconds long.

It was the only female solo in the film – it was the only contribution to the one and only Lata Mangeshkar to its soundtrack.

The song, which was written by Indeevar, was composed by Rajesh Roshan.

It was another AVian song

When I created a playlist of Hindi film songs referencing birds, I hadn’t heard the subject of this post.

It was titled Main Tere Mann Ki Maina Hoti.

The next line of the song went, “Tu Mere Mann Ka Tota”.

If the four songs from Hulchul were arranged in the alphabetical order, it would be the list.

Alka Yagnik was the lady who lent her voice to it.

And the man who joined her behind the microphone for it was Vinod Rathod.

The song, which was written by Kulwant Jani, was composed by Anu Malik.

This wAS another insipid duet

If the four songs from Hulchul were arranged in the alphabetical order, Pehli Dafaa Is Dil Mein would be the second.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that it was another run-of-the-mill duet.

Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu were the two people who lent their voices to the song.

It was the only contribution of the latter to the soundtrack of the film.

Each of the songs in it was written by a different lyricist.

And the man who penned this one was Faaiz Anwar.

The song was composed by Anu Malik.

 

 

It was no 16-year-old’s fAVourite

Hulchul completed Ajay Devgn’s 1995 hat-trick on this playlist.

And there were four songs from the film in my collection (following the addition of this post and the next three).

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, I Am Sixteen would be the first.

Alisha Chinai was the lady who lent the song her voice.

She was joined behind the microphone for it by Mr Rathod.

Sadly, the song did not earn the (Vi)nod of any 16-year-old Hindi film music enthusiast.

The song, which was written by Zafar Gorakhpuri, was composed by Anu Malik.

Yagnik and Hariharan sang it

Haqeeqat (1995) was the second film of that name on this playlist.

Dil Ne Dil Se Iqraar Kiya was the second song from the film in my collection.

Alka Yagnik was joined behind the microphone for it by Hariharan.

They won the Screen Award for Best Playback Singer (Female) and the Screen Award for Best Playback Singer (Male) for it in 1996.

And Hariharan was nominated for it in the Best Playback Singer (Male) category at the Filmfare Awards that year.

The song, which was written by Nawab Arzoo, was composed by Dilip Sen-Sameen Sen.

Chinai San(u)g this one too

Before I mention the subject of this post, I must point out that it and the subject of the previous one had three similarities.

Firstly, it was from Gundaraj.

Secondly, the lady who lent her voice to it was Alisha Chinai.

And thirdly, it was composed by the one and only Anu Malik.

In the next few lines of this post, I will elaborate on the three differences between them.

Firstly, it was titled Ek Nigah Mein.

Secondly, Kumar Sanu joined Chinai behind the microphone for it.

And thirdly, it was written by Zafar Gorakhpuri.

It was a BAd song

Gundaraj released in 1995.

My collection contained a couple of songs from the film.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Bad Boy would be the first.

In fact, it was the first song on the soundtrack.

The two people who lent it their voices were Alisha Chinai and Bali Brahmbhatt.

Interestingly, the former happened to be the female voice of the soundtrack.

And it was the only contribution of the latter to it.

Putting ‘only contribution to the soundtrack’ and lyricist in the same sentence, Shyam Anuragi wrote the awful Anu Malik composition.  

It wAS a run-of-the-mill duet

Andolan released in 1995.

My collection contains a couple of songs from the film (including the subject of this post).

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Aayegi Har Pal Tujhe would be the first.

It would not be incorrect to state that it was a run-of-the-mill duet.

The two people who lent it their voices were Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu.

And that was certainly not a surprise, because the two of them were the voices of the soundtrack.

Sameer Anjaan penned the song, which Nadeem Akhtar Saifi and Shravan Kumar Rathod composed.
