It waS(adhan)a mildly offensive (Sa)number

On listening to the songs of Aankhen, which released in 1993, a purist would say, “I can’t believe my kaan”.

This blog contains posts on four songs from the film. Of those, Angna Mein Baba was the shortest – it was five minutes and 49 seconds long.

One of its lines went, “Akeli hoon ghar maa, tu aaja baalma” (which can be translated to, “I’m home alone, come over, my love.”)

The duet, which was rendered by Kumar Sanu and Sadhana Sargam, wasn’t rocking, but was shocking.

It was penned by Indeevar.

Bappi Lahiri composed it.
