This gem by Nigam waS(on)underrated

The second track from Sangharsh on this blog was the solo by Sonu Nigam – Mujhe Raat Din, which was five minutes and 11 seconds long.

The song, which was penned by Sameer Anjaan, was composed by Jatin-Lalit. By no means would it be incorrect to state that it was one of their most underrated compositions.

That it sounded like Mujhe Dekhkar Aap Ka Muskurana, from the 1962 film Ek Musafir Ek Hasina was purely coincidental, but there’s no two ways about the fact that Nigam idolised Mohammed Rafi, who sang the O P Nayyar composition. 

(Pand)It didn’t fail to (Nig)amaze

By no means would (Pand)it be incorrect to state that the soundtrack of Sangharsh, which released in 1999, was one of the most underrated Jatin-Lalit scores.

Dil Ka Qaraar was the longer of the two tracks from the film on this blog – it was five minutes and 27 seconds long. In fact, it was the longest song in the film, which was a remake of the Hollywood film Silence of the Lambs, which released in 1991.

Sameer penned the Son(u)g, which was rendered by Mr Nigam, who was joined behind the microphone by Shraddha Pandit.
