Chaahe Meri Jaan Tu Le Le – the song from Dayavan – was sung by a pair who shared a surname.
While Mr Mukherjee’s
name gave Hindi film music aficionados ample indication of his disposition [and,
of course, the mood of the track, which is, in fact, punctuated by a woman’s
laugh and several repetitions of Haiya Ho,
a Jo(ll)yous cry], what Ms Mukherjee was living at that point was nothing short
of a Sapna.
It’s Indee(var)d
mandatory that everyone associated with a song R(a)ises to the occasion, as did
Shyamalal Babu, who penned this Laxmikant-Pyarelal composition.
