Let’s hark back
to the days when the protagonist’s threat to his beloved was a treat for the
listeners’ ears.
“Keh do ke tum ho meri warna jeena nahin,
mujhe hai marna” (Say you’re mine, or else I don’t want to live; I’ll die) –
which was seven minutes and 57 seconds long – was the longest song on the
soundtrack of Tezaab.
Penned by Javed
Akhtar, the track was composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
(Am)It was
rendered by Kumar and Anuradha Paudwal, who was nominated for a Filmfare Award
in the Best Female Playback Singer category in 1989.
