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).
