It (Bis)was Kishore’s posthumous hit

Scores of Kishore Kumar songs were picturised on Amitabh Bachchan, but most of them released when the duo was at the peak of their careers.

The latter essayed the titular character in Shahenshah (1988), which released a few months after the demise of the former, who sang its title track, Andheri Raaton Mein.

That, obviously, has nothing to do with the Mumbai suburb (which is brightly lit and perpetually buzzing, while its name, ironically, means dark).

It (Bis)was penned by Bakshi (An)and composed by ace arranger Amar Haldipur and Utpal (veteran music director Anil’s son).
