Kamat and D’Souza sang it

Between 2002 and 2005, Mahua Kamat was a member of the five- (later four-) member girl band, Viva!

It comprised the winners of Coke [V] Popstars, a reality show that aired on Channel [V].

But it was (obviously) for a song from a film that she featured on this playlist.

The track in question was Missing Sunday, the title track of Sunday, which released in 2008.

The man who joined her behind the microphone for it was Earl D’Souza.

Sajid-Farhad wrote the song, which was three minutes and 54 seconds long.

Sandeep Chowta composed it.

Sami sang this title track

Rama Rama Kya Hai Dramaa? was a film that released in 2008.

There was just one song from it in my collection.

And that happened to be the title track of the film - Rama Rama Kya Hai Dramaa?

The song had a series of nonsensical verses, which were credited to Kumaar.

The man who lent his voice to the song was the one and only Adnan Sami (who happened to be the voice of the soundtrack).

It was composed by Siddharth-Suhas.

While the former’s last name is Sharma, the latter’s last name is Shetty.

Mr Kher sang this SoNg

If the four songs from Krazzy 4 in my collection were arranged in the alphabetical order, O Re Lakad would be the last.

In fact, that was the only song from the film that was picturised on the titular quartet – Arshad Warsi, Irrfan, Rajpal Yadav, and Suresh Menon.

Of the three people who lent their voices to it, only one was a lady.

Her name was Sowmya Raoh.

The men who joined her behind the microphone for it were Kailash Kher and Neeraj Shridhar.

Javed Akhtar penned the song, which was composed by Rajesh Roshan.

It was sung by Dadlani

Z – the last letter of the English alphabet – is pronounced Zed in India and Zee in the United States.

But one song did not just have that pronunciation, but also a deliberate misspelling.

The track in question was Krazzy 4, which released in 2008.

Speaking of the alphabet, if the four songs from the film were arranged in the alphabetical order, it would be the penultimate one.

The song was picturised on Hrithik Roshan, and composed by Rajesh Roshan.

It was written by Javed Akhtar.

Vishal Dadlani was the man who lent it his voice.

Harshdeep sang it with Himesh

If the two songs from Karzzzz (2008) in my collection were arranged in the alphabetical order, as well as in the descending order of their durations, Lut Jaoon Lut Jaoon would be the first – it was five minutes and 36 seconds long.

It had three things in common with the other song from the film in it.

Firstly, they were composed and sung by Himesh Reshammiya.

Secondly, they were duets.

And thirdly, Sameer Anjaan penned them.

But there was one difference between them – Harshdeep Kaur joined him behind the microphone for Lut Jaoon Lut Jaoon.

Salim wasn’t just the composer

Fashion released in 2008.

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, the subject of this post – Aashiyana – would be the first (it was five minutes and 29 seconds long).

The song was composed by the Merchant brothers, Salim-Sulaiman.

And the man who sang it was Salim, the younger of the two.

The song was written by Irfan Siddiqui.

Its remixed version – which was credited to DJ A-Myth – was  five minutes and 50 seconds long.

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...
