Hariharan rendered this superb (Chi)t(h)rack

By no means would it be incorrect to say that Hum Tumse Na Kucch Keh Paaye, from Ziddi (which released in 1997), was an outstanding romantic number.

Is it any wonder then that there were a couple of versions of it on the soundtrack of the film?

This blog contains a post on the duet, which was rendered by K S Chithra and Hariharan.

The other version was a solo, sung by Hariharan.

Both the versions of the track were penned by the one and only Sameer Anjaan.

They were composed by Dilip Sen-Sameer Sen.

This inspired (Chi)t(h)rack was S(an)uperb

There were a couple of versions of Payaliya Chunmun Chunmun on the soundtrack of Virasat.

This blog contains a post on the duet, which was the longer of the two – it was half-a-dozen minutes and 50 seconds long.

K S Chithra and Kumar Sanu rendered it.

The other version, which was just a couple of minutes and 16 seconds long, was a female solo.

It was sung by Chithra.

Javed Akhtar penned the song, which was composed by Anu Malik.

The tune which inspired it was composed by Ilaiyaraja. It was used in Thevar Magan.

The listeners did Keep Calm

M M Kreem is the name by which Koduri Marakathamani Keeravaani (who is better known as M M Keeravani and is a popular composer in the South Indian film industries) scores music for Hindi films.

It wouldn’t be incorrect to state that it is apt, because he is the Kreem of the crop, as was evidenced by the underrated Chup Tum Raho, from Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin, which released in 1996.

Besides composing it, he rendered the song. He was joined behind the microphone by K S Chithra.

It was penned by Nida Fazli.

It was an AweSome traCk


It wouldn’t be incorrect to state that Tum Mile Dil Khile, from Criminal (1995), was one of the most outstanding numbers of the 1990s. It was also one of the most underrated.

The song had four versions. This blog contains a post on the duet, which was rendered by Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu. It was six minutes and three seconds long, as was Sanu’s solo in the film.

Alka and Sanu also had a solo each. 

K S Chithra’s humming was common to every version.

Indeevar penned the track, which M M Kreem composed.

This (Chi)t(h)rack, indeed, was SuPerB

Love wasn’t just the title of a film that released in 1991, but also what the listeners showered upon Saathiya Yeh Tune Kya Kiya, inarguably the most remembered song on its soundtrack.

If one were a Salman Khan fan and grew up in the 1990s, he/she would perhaps agree that it was a standalone hit, because the film, unfortunately, was an average grosser at the box office.

It was rendered by his then voice, S P Balasubrahmanyam, who was joined behind the microphone by K S Chithra.

Majrooh Sultanpuri penned the track, which Anand-Milind composed.
