Got inspiration from Meera’s bhajan
Harivansh Rai Bachchan very well understood the taste of Yash Chopra and composed such a song that even today it is special for Holi. Harivansh incorporated Awadhi words with Hindi for the song. The special thing is that the initial lines of this song are inspired by Meera’s hymn. As…
It rained O Meera, it rained in the house…
Kaun Aye Meera Tero Mandir Chinayao
Why Chinyo your brother-in-law…
It rained O Meera, it rained in the house…
Harivansh put the color of love in the song and threaded it in a new way.
‘Tujhe Dekha Toh…’ Shah Rukh Khan’s biggest hit, 195 million views, then why Kumar Sanu didn’t get the award?
The other specialty of the song was its music and voice. This song of 6 minutes 6 seconds was sung by Amitabh Bachchan. The color of the song increased in Amitabh’s voice. Along with this, Shiv Hari had included Kaharva in the rhythm of the song. The music of the song was made special using Indian instruments.
