This song wasn’t even pASSable

Hum To Mohabbat Karega released in 2000.

The film’s title was inspired by the song from Dilli Ka Thug, which released in 1958.

My collection contained just one song from the film.

It was titled Leh Liya Leh Liya.

Although I remembered it while compiling this playlist, it would not be incorrect to state that it was not even a passable song.

The three Sing(h)ers who (Bhos)lent it their voices were Abhijeet, Sudesh, and Sukhwinder.

The song was written by Majrooh Sultanpuri (who, incidentally, penned the Dilli Ka Thug track too).

Anu Malik composed it.

 

It was sung by Sudesh

Yeh Hai Mumbai Meri Jaan released in 1999.

The title track of the film – which was five minutes and 59 seconds long – was the second song from the film in my collection.

I added the song to my collection for a couple of reasons.

Firstly, I loved the song that inspired the film’s title (Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, from C.I.D., which released in 1956).

And secondly, I was once compiling a list of songs with cities in their titles.

The man who (Bhos)lent his voice to that track was Sudesh.

Indeevar wrote the Jatin-Lalit composition.

Anuradha and Sudesh sang it

In the past, whenever I thought of Dhanno, all I could remember was Basanti’s (Hema Malini) mare in Sholay (1975) or R D Burman’s song from the 1977 film Kitaab, Dhanno Ki Aankhon Mein.

But there was a non-Pancham Dhanno in the 1990s.

It was a song titled Dhanno Ki Aankh Sharabi.

And it happened to be the second song from the 1999 film Lal Baadshah in my collection.

The two people who (Bhos)lent the song their voices were Anuradha Paudwal and Sudesh.

It was written by Shyam Raj, and was composed by Aadesh Shrivastava.

Amit (Bhos)lent it his voice

Kohram released in 1999.

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

It was titled Hum Hain Banaras Ke Bhaiya.

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

I remembered the song despite having no other connection with the city in Uttar Pradesh, barring the fact that a couple of my mates hailed from there.

The two men who (Bhos)lent (Am)it their voices were Mr Kumar and Sudesh.

The song, which was written by Dev Kohli, was composed by Dilip Sen-Sameer Sen. 

Narula (Bhos)lent it her voice

International Khiladi released in 1999.

It was the sixth film in Akshay Kumar’s Khiladi franchise.

In fact, it also happened to be the last film in that franchise to release in the 1990s.

My collection contains just one song from the film, in which the actor’s would-be wife, Twinkle Khanna, was his co-star.

It was titled Lutiya Gaya.

The two people who (Bhos)lent the song their voices were Jaspinder Narula and Sudesh.

It was four minutes and 24 seconds long, and was written by Dev Kohli.

The man who composed the song was Aadesh Shrivastava.

Alka (Bhos)lent thiS(a)number her voice

Prior to the addition of the subject of this post to my collection, it had three songs from Andaz, which released in 1994.

The fourth was titled Laila Bechari Kya Karti.

If all the tracks from the film in it were arranged in the alphabetical order, it would be the third.

Two people from the previous song (Bhos)lent their voices to this one as well.

They were Alka Yagnik and Sudesh.

They were joined behind the microphone for it by none other than Kumar Sanu.

Indeevar wrote the song, which was composed by Bappi Lahiri.

Alka (Bhos)lent it Her voice

I had a vague memory of the subject of this post – Yeh Kanya Kunwari Hai, the second song from Aag in my collection.

But when I read the names of the three people who (Bhos)lent their voices to it, I wondered what on earth they were thinking when they consented to it.

The only female singer was the one and only Alka Yagnik.

Hariharan and Sudesh joined her behind the microphone for the song.

It was written by Sameer Anjaan.

And the two men who composed it were the Sens, uncle Dilip and nephew Sameer.
