ThiS(a)number was rendered by Alka

The tagline of Qayamat, which released in 2003, was City Under Threat.

My collection contains just one song from the film.

Or, should I say, it contains one version of a song.

I am referring to Woh Ladki Bahut Yaad Aati Hai.

Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu were the two people who lent their voices to that version, which was half-a-dozen minutes and 47 seconds long.

Sanu sang the solo, which was just a couple of minutes and 27 seconds long.

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

Azmat composed and sang it

Garaj Baras was the seventh track on the 2003 album Deewar, by the Pakistani rock band Junoon.

The song featured on the soundtrack of Paap, which released the same year.

The involvement of Ali Azmat, the frontman of the band, in the song wasn’t restricted to composing it, but he rendered it too.

The only thing he did not do was write it – Sabir Zafar was the lyricist.

Interestingly, the song was as long as Mann Ki Lagan, the other song from the film in my collection – it was four minutes and 51 seconds long.

K S Chithra S(ha)ang this

Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon released in 2003.

My collection contained just one song from the film.

It was titled Kasam Ki Kasam.

By no means would it be incorrect to state that it was the best-known song in the film.

K S Chithra, one of the two people who lent her voice to the song, happened to be the voice of the soundtrack.

Shaan, who joined her behind the microphone for it, was the only male voice on it.

Dev Kohli wrote the Anu Malik composition.

It was half-a-dozen minutes and three seconds long.

Jagjit Singh was the singer

When I sat down to write this post, it was the day after the 83^rd birth anniversary of Jagjit Singh*.

He lent his voice to one of the two songs from Jogger’s Park (2003) in my collection.

It was titled Badi Naazuk Hai Yeh Manzil.

Zameer Kazmi wrote the song, which was composed by Tabun Sutradhar.

(*Note: Jagjit Singh was born Jagmohan Singh Dhiman on February 8, 1941 in Sri Ganganagar, which was then in Bikaner State. It is in present-day Rajasthan. He died in Mumbai, at the age of 70, on October 10, 2011.)

Nigam sang this run-of-the-mill song

If the five songs from Ishq Vishk were arranged in the alphabetical order, Love Love Tum Karo would be the last.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, they would be the first – it was five minutes and 41 seconds long.

As far as the songs from the film in my collection were concerned, Sonu Nigam, who sang it, was the voice of the soundtrack.

It was the only male solo in the film.

The song, which was written by Sameer Anjaan, was composed by none other than Anu Malik.

ThiS(o)number was sung by Alka

My collection contained five songs from the 2003 film Ishq Vishk, including the subject of this post and that of the next one.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Dooba Re Dooba would be the third.

And if they were arranged in the ascending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was four minutes and nine seconds long.

Alka Yagnik, the voice of the soundtrack, was one of the two people who lent it their voices.

Sonu Nigam was the other.

Sameer Anjaan wrote the song, which Anu Malik composed.

Ms Yagnik S(ha)ang this song

Chura Liyaa Hai Tumne released in 2003.

My collection contained three songs from the film.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, the title track – Chura Liyaa Hai Tumne – would be the second.

Shaan, who was the voice of the soundtrack, was one of the two people who lent their voices to it.

The lady who joined him behind the microphone for it was the one and only Alka Yagnik.

It was one of her two contributions to the soundtrack, but it wasn’t included in my collection.

Sudhakar Sharma wrote the Himesh Reshammiya composition.

Sukhwinder lent it his voice

Chalte Chalte released in 2003.

There were half-a-dozen tracks from the film in my collection, including the subject of this post.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Layee Vi Na Gayee would be the fourth.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the third – it was five minutes and 45 seconds long.

In fact, it was the longest of the four tracks in the film that were shorter than the six-minute mark.

Sukhwinder Singh sang the song.

Babbu Singh Mann wrote the Aadesh Shrivastava composition.

 

Ms Yagnik sang thiS(an)underrated song

My collection contained a couple of songs from Andaaz, which released in 2003.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, Kisi Se Tum Pyaar Karo would be the first.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the second – it was five minutes and 11 seconds long.

It was an underrated song.

Alka Yagnik, the voice of the soundtrack, was one of the two people who sang it.

The man who joined her behind the microphone for it was Kumar Sanu.

Sameer Anjaan wrote the Nadeem-Shravan composition.
