Only Raina’s version was included

The second song from I Love NY in my collection was Gud Naal Ishq Mitha.

As a kid growing up in the 1990s, I remember Bally Sagoo’s version of the song, which ruled the Indi-pop charts back in the day.

But in case of the film version of the song, the traditional lyrics were complemented by Mayur Puri’s lyrics.

Anupal Amod composed the song, which was sung by Tochi Raina.

The song was three minutes and 41 seconds long.

Another version of the song was sung by Sukhwinder Singh. But my collection didn’t include it.

Mauli sang this RecreateD track

I Love NY – a long-delayed film – released in 2015.

My collection contained a couple of songs from the film.

If they were arranged in the alphabetical order, the recreated version of R D Burman’s composition, Aaja Meri Jaan (the title track of the 1993 film of that name) would be the first.

DJ Phukan was credited with composing this version, which was sung by Mauli Dave, a contestant on Zee TV’s reality show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007.

The song – which was five minutes and 14 seconds long – was written by Mayur Puri.
