Sanu sang this underrated solo

Uff is an interjection used by Indians to express a rage of emotions, including disgust and relief.

While Uff! Yeh Mohabbat (1997) elicited the former, there was one song from the film that elicited sighs of the latter.

It was an underrated song titled Utra Na Dil Mein Koi.

And that man who lent his voice to it was the one and only Kumar Sanu.

Though he sang four of the songs in the film, only this one was a solo.

It was written by Rani Malik, and composed by Nikhil Kamath and Vinay Tiwari.

This was another Yagnik-Sanu duet

There was just one difference between the subject of the previous post and that of this one.

And that, obviously, was the title of the song – Ishq Mein Mere Rabba.

Now, let us look at the four things those songs have in common.

Firstly, both of them were from Sanam.

Secondly, the lady who lent her voice to this song was the one and only Alka Yagnik, who was joined behind the microphone for it by Kumar Sanu.

Thirdly, it was written by Sameer Anjaan.

And lastly, it was composed by the Srivastava brothers, Anand-Milind.

ThiS(a)number was sung by Yagnik

While Sanam released in 1997, the film’s soundtrack released in 1993.

My collection contained a couple of songs from the film (which, incidentally, made it to Cibaca Geetmala’s Annual List for 1993).

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Aankhon Mein Neendein Na Dil would be the first.

In fact, it was obviously the first song on the soundtrack of the film.

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

The song, which was penned by Sameer Anjaan, was composed by the Srivastava brothers, Anand and Milind.

It was sUNg by Sargam

When I compiled my playlist containing Hindi film songs that referenced birds, I had not heard the subject of this post.

It was titled Dil Junglee Kabootar.

And it was the only song from Qahar (1997) in my collection.

On one hand, I was trying to wrap my head around the reason a person would liken his heart to a wild pigeon.

And on the other, I was looking up the lyricist’s name – by the way, it was Anand Bakshi.

The song, which was written by Anand-Milind, was sung by Sadhana Sargam and Udit Narayan.

Three (Fal)‘guni’ Sing(h)ers San(u)g this

Koyla released in 1997 (and was, in fact, the first Hindi film I went to a cinema hall to watch).

There were four songs from the film in my collection.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the descending order of their durations, Badan Juda Hote Hain would be the first – it was a whopping ten-and-a-half minutes long.

Kumar Sanu as joined behind the microphone for it by ‘The Dandiya Queen’, Falguni Pathak, and Preeti Singh, the daughter of composer Uttam Singh.

Indeevar wrote the song, which Rajesh Roshan composed.

It was S(an)ung by Sargam

Hameshaa released in 1997.

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

It happened to be the title track of the film, Hameshaa Hameshaa.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the descending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was half-a-dozen minutes and 54 seconds long.

Sadhana Sargam, the female voice of the soundtrack, lent it her voice.

She was joined behind the microphone for it by Kumar Sanu.

Rahat Indori wrote the song, which Anu Malik composed.

Kumar Sanu sang this trAcK

If the six songs from Gupt: The Hidden Truth in my collection were arranged in the alphabetical order, Yeh Pyaar Kya Hai would be the last.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was half-a-dozen minutes and 34 seconds long.

While Alka Yagnik and Kavita Krishnamurthy were the two ladies who lent their voices to the song, the man who joined them behind the microphone for it was none other than Kumar Sanu.

Anand Bakshi penned the song, which was composed by Viju Shah.

Sargam sang this UNderrated song

This is the second of the three Viju Shah compositions from films that released in 1997 on this playlist.

And it was one of the two songs from Gupt: The Hidden Truth on it.

If the six songs from the film were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the descending order of their durations, Mere Sanam Tujhko would the fourth – it was five minutes and 48 seconds long.

There is no two ways about the fact that that song, which Anand Bakshi penned, was underrated.

Sadhana Sargam and Mr Narayan sang (Ud)it.

It was rendered by Sanu

I remembered the subject of this post when I was compiling the playlist.

I was aware of a couple of things about it.

Firstly, it was from a film that released in the 1990s (but I did not know its title).

And secondly, it was sung by Kumar Sanu.

The song in question was Har Pal Chahe Mera Dil.

And when I added it to my collection, I found out that it was from Gudgudee, which released in 1997.

By the way, the song, which was penned by Yogesh Gaur, was composed by Bappi Lahiri.

 

Sargam sang it with Abhijeet

I concluded the previous post with a statement about three of the 10 songs from films that released in 1997 on this playlist being Viju Shah compositions.

One of them was the third song from Aar Ya Paar in my collection.

It was titled Mann Chahe Sanam.

It happened to be the only contributions of the two people who sang it to the soundtrack of the film.

Sadhana Sargam and Abhijeet were the singers in question.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that this song, which was written by Indeevar, was underrated.
