Supriyo's rendition (Srini)vas indeed fantastic

Ta Ra Rum Pum, from Doli Saja Ke Rakhna, was the song every young guy would croon upon discovering who he believes is the one.

And if he’s lucky to have a group of buddies who are genuinely worried about his habit of being khoya khoya (lost) and din mein soya soya (asleep during the day) and raaton ko uthke rona (getting up at night and crying), they’ll say, “Chalo usko dhoondhenge hum” (which means, “Let’s go and find her.”)

Mehboob penned the song, which A R Rahman composed.

Babul Supriyo and Srinivas rendered it.

Anuradha excelled in thiS(reekuma)romantic number

If you grew up in the nineties, and were (Paudw)alover of the Hindi film music of that decade, chances are you would have read Anuradha's name in the credits of numerous soundtracks.
Of course, she didn’t render many A R Rahman compositions. One of the pair's collaborations was Kissa Hum Likhenge from Doli Saja Ke Rakhna.
The romantic duet became quite popular for a while.
The man who joined her behind the microphone was none other than M G Sreekumar.
Kudos to Mehboob, who penned it, for capturing the innocence of that period so beautifully.


Ranu ably supported her co-Sing(h)er

Doli Saja Ke Rakhna, which released in 1998, derived its title from a track from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.

By no means was the soundtrack of the former as popular as that of the latter, but it had a few catchy numbers.

One of them was Chal Kheva Re Kheva, which celebrated the joie de vivre one associates with fishermen.

The track, which was penned by Mehboob, was composed by A R Rahman.

It wouldn’t be incorrect to state that Sukhwinder Singh had the listeners hooked.

He was joined behind the microphone by Ranu Mukherjee.
