Undoubtedly, Ms Gandhi sanGa(tta)niftily-arranged number

Although Main Tumhara was one of the weakest tracks on the soundtrack of Dil Bechara, there’s no two ways about the fact that its arrangement was outstanding.

Composed by A R Rahman, it was the longest of the eight tracks in the film – it was four minutes and 18 seconds long.

The male vocalist was Hriday Gattani, who – like Shashwat Singh, who bagged the lion’s share of the songs in the composer’s previous outing, 99 Songs – is a K M Music Conservatory alumnus.

Jonita Gandhi shared singing credits with him.

Amitabh Bhattacharya penned the track.

Rianjali co-wrote it, besides singinG(andh)it

Raakh Baaki was the longer of the two songs on the soundtrack of Mom that Rianjali co-wrote – it was five minutes and 43 seconds long.

She shared penning credits with Irshad Kamil.

But by no means was her contribution to the track, which was composed by A R Rahman, wasn’t limited to that – she teamed up with Jonita Gandhi to render it.

Since it was the seventh and final song from the film (if they were arranged in alphabetical order), it would not be incorrect to state that the best was literally saved for last.
