The listeners ASKed for it

Lambada, the 1989 song by Brazilian pop group Kaoma, became popular.

Needless to say, there was a desi version.

Titled Sochna Kya, it was the catchiest song from Ghayal.

Indeevar penned the song, which Bappi Lahiri composed.

It was rendered by Kumar Sanu, Asha Bhosle and Shabbir Kumar.

One of its lines went, “Saath hain hum sab, isse badi kya khushi” (which could be translated to, “Is there any greater joy than the fact that all of us are together?”)

It was, incidentally, the title of the sad version of the track. Sanu sang it.

No (Jana)kidding, (Am)it was mediocre

The soundtrack of Ghayal (1990) was a tad better than that of its sequel, Ghayal Returns, which released 16 years later. But by no means did that imply that it was outstanding.

In fact, the next line of Pyaar Tum Mujhse Karti Ho went, “Don’t Say No”. But that must have been exactly what the listeners said on listening to it.

The track, whose opening line could be translated to, “You love me”, was penned by Anjaan and composed by the King of BLing (Bappi Lahiri).

It was rendered by Amit Kumar and S Janaki.
