Rahman composed and S(hasha)ang it

If the four tracks from Mili in my collection were arranged in the alphabetical order, Tum Bhi Raahi would be the last.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the second – it was four minutes and 16 seconds long.

The involvement of the one and only A R Rahman in the song was not restricted to composing it, but he happened to be one of the two people who lent their voices to it too.

The other was Shashaa Tirupati.

The song was written by Javed Akhtar.

Mishra sang this title track

If the four songs on the soundtrack of Mili were arranged in the (Vish)alphabetical order, Sun Aye Mili – the title track of the film – would be the third.

And if they were arranged in the descending order of their durations, it would be the first – it was four minutes and 27 seconds long.

The song happened to be a male solo – it was, in fact, the second song in the film to which Mishra lent his voice.

The man who wrote it was Javed Akhtar, and the person who composed it was A R Rahman.

It was sung by Abhilasha

Only one of the four songs on the soundtrack of Mili happened to be a female solo.

The track was titled Main Toh Main Hoon, and the lady who lent her voice to it was Abhilasha Sinha.

Not only would it be the second if the songs from the film were arranged in the alphabetical order, but even if they were arranged in the ascending order of their durations, it would be the second, because it was three minutes and 47 seconds long.

Javed Akhtar wrote the song, which was composed by A R Rahman.

It was a Vishal solo

Mili released in 2022.

It has nothing to do with the 1975 film of the same name, but a remake of the Malayalam film Helen, which released in 2019.

My collection contains four songs from the film.

If they were arranged in the (Vish)alphabetical order, as well as in the ascending order of their durations, Jeena Hoga would be the first – it was three minutes and 41 seconds long.

The man who lent his voice to was none other than Mishra.

The song, which was written by Javed Akhtar, was composed by A R Rahman.
