It was among Alka’S(an)underrated duets

My blog on the music of Hindi films that released in the 1990s contained posts on four songs from Akele Hum Akele Tum (1995).

But I hadn’t heard the fifth song from the film – Dil Kehta Hai – when I completed that blog.

I recently heard this underrated track, which happened to be the longest song in the film – it was half-a-dozen minutes and 44 seconds long.

It was Alka Yagnik’s second contribution to the film’s soundtrack, and the only male-female duet sung by Kumar Sanu in the film.

Majrooh Sultanpuri penned the Anu Malik composition.
