still a primary school student when qayamat se qayamat tak came out, it' s incredible how affectionate i continue to feel towards this film, which released on this day, april 29, 25 years ago. it' s like that line,' humpar aapka bahut acha impression pada hai.'

the film qayamat se qayamat tak (1988) doesn’t need any introduction. an important landmark in popular hindi cinema history, it will be forever cherished for gifting us two heartthrobs: aamir khan and juhi chawla. needless to say that mansoor khan, too, emerged as a directorial force to reckon with. the film that revived hindi cinema — qayamat se qayamat tak (harper collins), authored by gautam chintamani, offers an in - depth look at the way the film impacted hindi cinema and explores the journey that both aamir khan and juhi chawla embarked upon following the release of the film. excerpts from an interview with the author .
you went to iit, then dropped out; went to usa for further studies and then dropped out of that as well. then, you made your first film, qayamat se qayamat tak and then after josh in 2000, you disappeared and took up farming. why do you keep moving on one thing to another ?
as mansoor khan’s timeless romantic film turns 27 today, i bring you a list of 5 reasons for why i think qayamat se qayamat tak is a cult classicwilliam shakespeare’s tragic play on two lovers, romeo and juliet, has been revisited umpteen number of times by filmmakers across the world. but there was something special [ … ]
filmmaker mansoor khan says the film “qayamat se qayamat tak” was supposed to initially have a happy ending but looking at the drift of the film, he gave it a sad climax. directed by mansoor, written and produced by his father nasir hussain, the film released in 1988. it was a blockbuster which catapulted aamir [ … ]

maybe it’s the fault of films like qayamat se qayamat tak that we expected so much out of love and loved ones. but for some reason, i still want to believe in it! that’s what’s so great about everlasting romantic films—whether it’s qayamat se qayamat tak, dilwale dulhaniye le jayenge or hum aapka hain koun. even though we now it’s not very realistic, we don’t lose our faith and hope on love. these films keep us hoping and dreaming that one day, maybe one day, it will also happen to us. i guess this is the one thing that humans never lose hope on—love! and this is why good films on love become iconic and make us want to watch them over and over again .
mansoor khan' s directorial debut qayamat se qayamat tak released 25 years ago today, april 29, with then upcoming actors aamir khan and juhi chawla, starring in their first major roles. fondly referred to as qsqt by cinephiles, the film went on to create box office history and catapulted the lead actors to superstardom overnight. sukanya verma revisits the magical film .
but he reappeared, with further grooming and more confidence in the 1988 hit qayamat se qayamat tak, a cult film on unrequited young love. he has had many set backs but the actor has transformed from a tongue - tied romantic hero of films such as love love love and dil to an intense character in socially relevant films such as taare zamin par and 3 idiots .
the chirpy actress makes tons of cute faces and delivers various flirtatious lines in her sing - song style - - dettol wali koi chhot nahi / humari shaan mein kuch aur kehna chahein toh hum sunne ke liye taiyaar hain - - says,' qayamat se qayamat tak was like a college play. we would rehearse, laugh, play, shoot - - it was wonderful.'
twenty - five years ago, when qayamat se qayamat tak (qsqt) was first released, i didn’t see it in the grandeur of a cinema hall. as an eight - year - old movie addict, marinating in a healthy mix of jeetendra - sridevi potboilers and conan the barbarian films, i was indifferent to the beguiling charms of a chocolate boy man romancing a somewhat dumpy girl .

indian film has pulled from the same story for many years .
romeo and juliet
is a dozen hindi films and by and large they have all been successful. take
qayamat se qayamat tak
as a break out film in the late 80' s and
ishqzaade
in this decade. both heavily influenced by the shakespearean tragedy. both successful, both relatable to their audience of the time .
sahrukh is not hit uski film hit hoti he. uski sari hit film dekh lo unke director ke vajeh se hit hue he weh sirf y chopra, karan johar, ke camp se hi safe he .
hussain' s last couple of films had bombed badly and the success of qayamat se qayamat tak (which would go on to become one of the first movies - - at least in my memory - - to be addressed by its abbreviated title, qsqt followed by the likes of mpk, jjws, ddlj, k3g, etc) was imperative. as luck would have it, it became a huge blockbuster and turned its leading duo into overnight sensations .
i saw this film for the first time ever just a few weeks ago and i regret not seeing it before. how i got the idea to see the film is funny. i got the idea from aiyyaa. in aiyyaa, rani’s character dreamt of herself in different iconic bollywood songs. one of the songs was gazab ka hain din, a song picturized on juhi from qayamat se qayamat tak. when i saw that, i decided that i have to see this film .
p erhaps the only thing i didn' t like (even then) is the unexpected, distressing end. okay, so maybe the grandiose twins in its title qayamat se qayamat tak makes its intention quite obvious. but as a kid, i had a hard time believing it actually happened. as an adult, i deem it, like jai' s death (in sholay), plain unnecessary and almost always skip the last 10 minutes. such denial doesn' t hurt .
qayamat se qayamat tak or qsqt (from doom to doom) is a 1988 indian romantic drama film written by nasir hussain and directed by his son mansoor khan. the film' s plot hints to be inspired by shakespeare' s romeo and juliet. the film starred hussain' s nephew, aamir khan, along with juhi chawla in their first major roles. upon release, the movie was a major success and was declared blockbuster at the boxoffice and shot its leading stars to fame overnight .

king sirf aik hi hai wo hai srk. ye film chalane k liye pent tak utar deta hai amir dekhte hain ye kitna kamata hai
it was their father’s bhojpuri innings that also gave qayamat se qayamat tak its playback singers in the form of udit narayan and alka yagnik. udit narayan had come to bombay in the late 1970s and was on the verge of giving up on his dream of becoming a playback singer when the faint possibility of mansoor’s future project inspired him to hang on. mansoor was also clear about using a new set of voices for both aamir and juhi as opposed to the established ones and even though abhijeet was discussed as an option in the end mansoor opted for udit narayan .
back in the year 1988, a young boy with dreams in his eyes, made his debut in bollywood. that boy is none other than aamir khan and the movie is qayamat se qayamat tak. he started his acting career with this movie opposite yet another promising star – juhi chawla. of course, this movie went on to being a hit movie and loved by the audience. today, this movie finished 27 years! damn! i feel old now. to celebrate the glorious 27 years, we compiled the images of the star cast then and now .

: when raj and rashmi were going back to dehli, rashmi says
tum dilli mein hum se milo ge naa! agar na milna ho to milne ka vaada hi kar do, kam se kam hamein tuhara intezar to rahega
and two tears come out of her eyes .
sales of records and listeners votes decided which song made it to the top. the first sar taj geet was ‘yeh zindagi usiki hai’ (anarkali) sung by lata mangeshkar. the year raju was born it was ‘hai apna dil to awaara’ (solva saal) sung by hemant kumar. the year i was born it was ‘teri pyari pyari surat ko’ (sasural), sung by mohammed rafi. in 1988, when it was still binaca geetmala from radio ceylon, the top song was ‘papa kehte hain’ (qayamat se qayamat tak) sung by udit narayan. that was also the year my son was born .
it’s not that qayamat se qayamat tak was the most relevant love story. before qsqt, we had love story and ek duje ke liye, which were very successful love stories on celluloid. but what attracted qsqt most to the audience was that the teenagers could relate to the movie. may be it was aamir’s chocolate boy looks or juhi’s chirpiness and how their innocent love blossomed against the background of their brutal family feud (romeo and juliet, anyone ?) – these were the few factors that endeared the movie to the young viewers. and the songs of course, just what to say about them…absolutely timeless !

no wonder, this was one opportunity that i didn’t want to let go. as an 11 year old school kid who was mesmerized by the music that played along the film and the tragic ending that sunk my heart even as a child, i vividly remember wondering who were these two new faces – aamir khan and juhi chawla. well, it is these very facets i. e. a newcomer cast, music and the tragic ending that made qayamat se qayamat tak a film that turned out to be ultra - popular amongst one and all. this was also perhaps one of the first instances of a film earning an acronym for itself .
a couple of years ago, author gautam chintamani had come up with a fabulous book – the loneliness of being rajesh khanna – dark star. the book, in one word, was ‘brilliant’. it had thrown open so many facets of rajesh khanna’s personal and professional life that it was tough to put it down. hence, when i realized that the author had now come up with another book, this time around qayamat se qayamat tak, i really wanted to check out what he had to offer. unlike many other classics from the past, the mansoor khan directed film hasn’t been dissected to a great extent. yes, it has been spoken about, but not analysed !
aamir ko aamir nahi aamir sir bolo pehle srk fans, phir respect se baat karo aamir sir ke bare me. he is the only rular of bollywood. samjhe .
this film is truly remarkable, a love story which catches the essence of romeo and juliet, raj - aamir khan falls in love with the daughter of a rival family reshmi - juhi chawla, their love for each other means more bloodshed. their fathers despise each other and do not want this relationship but raj and reshmi are both determined and do not listen to their fathers, an emotional story, lovely songs - especially aye mere humsifar - this film will go down in history of indian movies. an epic tale, which leads to the ultimate conclusion - but raj and reshmi are finally together. lets let the sun go down and begin another journey - qayamat se qayamat tak - a tragic and epic tale of two lovers brought together by fate. a must see
everyone knows that aamir had played a child actor in yaadon ki baarat. ashutosh gowariker paid tribute to this fact, when he inserted a scene from the movie in swades, where aamir as a child so innocently sang the title song. but many think qayamat se qayamat tak was actually aamir’s adult debut – which is wrong. aamir had, in fact, played the role of a rebellious college student in ketan mehta’s hard hitting drama, holi, which incidentally also starred ashutosh. before that, he also made a 40 - minute silent film called paranoia. there was another film that he signed before qsqt, that could only be released after the success of qsqt. it was a little known revenge drama called raakh, for which aamir received the national award – special jury category .

‘dad had a great flair for titles. one day he came home, fixed his whiskey and then he got it, “bingo”. so he called us and said, “achha, listen with an open mind. just listen to it, don’t react. i’ve thought of a title. ” we were all very excited. i remember aamir, nuzhat and i were there. he said, “ qayamat se qayamat tak ”, and all three of us went, “we don’t know why, but we like it. ” see, we were looking for a rationale for nafrat ke waaris and literally trying to tell the story [ with the film’s title ]. ’ mansoor admitted that this was yet another good example of husain’s literary bent. husain even vetted the title with majrooh sultanpuri. ‘i remember he spoke to majrooh sa’ab on the phone. and majrooh sa’ab said it’s very good. ’
ghajini – father of 100cr 3 idiots – father of 200cr and now dhoom 3 – father of 500cr and peekay is easily earn 300 se 400cr. so we can call a. k baap of the bollywood .
ae mere humsafar ek zara intezaar sun sadaayein de rahi hain manzil yaar ki ae mere humsafar ek zara intezaar sun sadaayein de rahi hain manzil yaar ki ab hai judaai ka mausam do pal ka mehmaan kaise naa jaayega ndhera kyoon naa thamega toofan ab hai judaai ka mausam do pal ka mehmaan kaise naa jaayega andhera kyoon naa thamega toofan kaise naa milegi manzil pyaar ki ae mere humsafar ek zara intezaar sun sadaayein de rahi hain manzil pyaar ki pyaar ne jahan pe rakha hai jhoomke kadam ek baar vahin se khula hai koi rasta vahin se giri hai deewaar pyaar ne jahan pe rakha hai jhoom ke kadam ek baar vahin se khula hai koi rasta vahin se giri hai deewaar roke kab ruki hai manzil pyaar ki ae mere humsafar ek zara intezaar sun sadaayein de rahi hai manzil pyaar ki ae mere humsafar ek zara intezaar sun sadaayein de rahi hai manzil pyaar ki .
besides mansoor’s clarity and his willingness to be open enough to ideas, it was also the manner in which anand - milind approached the musicians that made a huge difference to the songs of the film. the duo had their favourite set of musicians contributing to the score and this list included some of the best in the trade such as kawas lord, homi mullan (percussion), viju shah (keyboards), shayam raj (sporano sax), raju singh and sunil kaushik (electric guitar) (electric guitar), tony vaz and ramesh iyer (bass) and dubey (dholak). with the advent of synthesised sounds in the mid 1980s and the general decay in the quality of music most of these musicians rarely got a score that would push the envelope but here they knew that they were on to something. but the enduring impact that qayamat se qayamat tak’s music would have on hindi cinema was still some distance away .
produced by the man behind dazzling entertainers like tumsa nahi dekha, teesri manzil, yaadon ki baarat, hum kisise kum nahin - - nasir hussain, qayamat se... , directed by his son mansoor, worked as a clutter - breaker during a time bollywood reeked of action and revenge, re - launching the career of two previously unnoticed actors - - nephew aamir khan (in ketan mehta' s holi) and juhi chawla (mukul s anand' s sultanat) .

the signs might have been there but most in the industry weren’t able to fathom the manner in which the music of qayamat se qayamat tak would ultimately end up signaling a return to melody. as the film underwent a long period of endless trial shows with distributors expressing their doubts about the film’s potential at the box - office, the lukewarm response to the film’s music ended up being a common factor of doubt across the array of prospective buyers. they questioned the ending, debated over the title but simply couldn’t get over the music which most felt was poor when compared to typical nasir hussain productions. this was still a time when a distributor’s word could seal the fate of films and although nasir hussain was still a revered figure, a film from his banner with what they called thanda or lukewarm music was an anomaly too conspicuous to ignore. in spite of some air time on radio and an official launch by rishi kapoor, the music was still to hit the bull’s eye but it was one of the trials that a close friend of nasir hussain finally saw what the world was yet to witness. shammi kapoor and nasir husain were close friends and the star whose career was practically resurrected by the filmmaker told him that no one could stop the film or its music. but the biggest compliment that the music got was from the man who could have been the one composing it .
at the time when the music of qayamat se qayamat tak was being created the format of recording was also undergoing a transition from mono to stereo and this was one of the first few films with stereophonic sound. while recording on multi - tracks gave the music director the freedom to record the song and music separately, the singer still had to sing the full song as option of plugging in a part or cutting and pasting portions or even effects such as pitch - correction were a few years away. most of the songs were recorded over a couple of days with the rhythm and strings on one and the vocals on the second day. in some cases such as gazab ka hai din the entire song was recorded in a single day. while anand - milind, mansoor and nasir hussain were on the same page for most of the recording the only time the three differed was during the recording of the lullaby kahe sataye. milind often wonders that the tune wasn’t done justice to keeping the short duration of the song in mind. “it was such a sweet melody and i wanted to record a full song, ” recalls the younger brother but anand is quick to add that nasir sahab wanted to keep it as is. mansoor, on the other hand, remembers his father toying with the idea of a song but he wanted to go a step ahead and keep a threadbare version with just alka yagnik humming the song without any music. interestingly this is one of his favourite things about the film, which ironically enough is also one of the few things he regrets not doing right and given half a chance this would perhaps be the only thing he’d like to change about the film .
et me unravel an absolutely delightful kannada track, endendu ninnanu, that anand milind ripped off oh - so - blatantly to compose their 1992 track,' bin tere kuchh bhi' from the govinda starrer,' jaan se pyaara'. the original is by the composer duo rajan nagendra, one of the most talented composers from karnataka and was featured in the 1974 rajkumar starrer,' eradu kanasu' .
to phir amir fans kyun ro rahe ho. pata chal jayega saal ke end mein. amir chun chun ke script lekar film banata hai. with out which is he is useless. srk fans hokar bhi kehta hoon ce 3idiots se acha na hokar bhi use phad diya. bachu samjha srk king hai. 3idiots didn’t face any movies for 3weeks but ce faced so much movies every week. that’s the value of urltoken thing srk does that amir can never do is to enter and win billions of heart. he is the hero of billions of hearts not for you mindless amir fans .
for regular itwofs visitors not familiar with kannada film music... does the names rajan nagendra ring a bell? check out nadeem shravan page, listing no. 28! the plot of' jaan se pyaara' was a lift too. from the 1985 jackie chan - samo hung starrer,' long de xin' (called' heart of the dragon' in its english release). samo hung plays jackie chan' s mentally retarded brother, while govinda perhaps insisted on playing both the roles himself... these indian heroes and their fetish for double roles... !
back then, the local grocery shop sold something known as jolly sweets - - something along the lines of willie wonka' s golden tickets concealed in a candy wrapper. only instead of a trip to chocolate factory, the coupon would get us a free postcard of qsqt (or shahenshah and later maine pyaar kiya). i accumulated an entire stack of its postcards. when i met juhi to interview her role as producer with phir bhi dil hai hindustani and to compile a list of her pick of the best - looking actors in hindi cinema, i lightly mentioned how her pigtails were a huge hit among schoolgirls when qsqt came out and how i hated not being part of the' thing' since i had a boy cut. her response was a giggle mixed in disbelief and delight. she' ll probably react the same way if i tell her how even after 25 years,' mazaa aa raha hai, kasam se.'
but it has been worked upon so well that its really hard to say that its inspired! very unanand - milindlike! there is such a huge difference between the two but there are a few give - aways too. to start with, the original is neil diamond' s' play me'. in the hindi song there is a slight twist which the singer gives in the second line (gazab ka hai din is sung normally, while the second line' yeah deewanapan' has a mild twist in the word deewanapan !). play me has a similar twist in line 2 -' i one day woke up to find', the twist at the word' to find' (listen to this part from 00: 24: 0). also, the' tum ho akele, hum bhi akele, maza aa raha hai, kasam se' is almost exactly there in the english number - listen from point 01: 10: 0 onwards !
lol, naya karta hai. har aamir fans ka common dialogue hai. jab kam films kiya ho, jyaada flops ho, to yahi baat to bolna padega na. haan naya kiya aamir pehle cheapest south remake karke jisko sallu, akki follow kar rahein hain. waah! kya class hain amir ka! aur iska fans bol rahein hain ce crap hain. jab ghajini dekhi thi tabhi tumhari class kahan gayi thi? jab 90’s ki most romantic story flop ho gayi to amir sahab soche ye sab nahi hoga abhi desh bhakti movie nikalte hain kise pata kab hit ho jaye, uske baad kya ghanta different kiya amir. jab 3idiots success hui to talash kyun nahi hui? abhi tak ek bhi real villain wala movie nahi kar paya amir. see srk’s different roles in movies cdi, swades, mnik, don, rnbdj, ra one, at last ce (comedian). aur kitna different chahiye? ek baat samajh lo, log sirf amir ki film dekhne jate hain aur wohi log film jaate hain srk ki acting dekhne ke liye. because it was already decided by the film freternity who is the most powerful actor lol .
best known for musical blockbusters, legendary filmmaker nasir husain also wrote dialogues for his films. his words were true to the syntax of the timesthey were written in, whether it was formunimjiorpaying guestin the mid - 1950s or forjo jeeta wohi sikanderin the ’90s
while mansoor had a ‘bigger role’ to play in the dialogues for jo jeeta …, in that he would often write the scenes in english, it was husain who adapted the scenes and gave them his own flavour. this is true of the film’s title as well. mansoor gave husain ‘winner takes all’ as the film’s title, which husain correctly interpreted as jo jeeta wohi sikandar. ‘it was his title in that sense, ’ said mansoor. ‘but there were lots of scenes like, “ uss thaapar ka paapad bana ke aaoonga ” where it was his flair. ’
while on the subject of titles, mansoor also told me that qsqt was initially titled or had the working title, ‘ nafrat ke waaris ’. this was an offshoot from one of the dialogues in the film when raj has a confrontation with randhir singh. in the heat of the moment, raj tells randhir singh, ‘ main aur rashmi aap dono ke nafrat ke waaris banney ko taiyaar nahin (rashmi and i don’t wish to inherit the hatred between you and my father). ’ consequently, aamir, nuzhat and mansoor would suggest titles like, ‘ daraar ’ and ‘ nafrat ke waaris ’ .
while husain’s literary and old - world sensibilities shone with qsqt, his ability to enunciate the grammar of a generation entirely different from his own (he was over sixty - five when he wrote the dialogues of jjws) is what added to the overall appeal of jjws. javed akhtar said as much. ‘ jo jeeta wohi sikandar was about the youth of that time... if you listen to the film’s dialogues, you will feel that it is written by someone who is twenty or twenty - two years old. that is because that youngster always remained within nasir husain, in his personality and in his writing. ’ mansoor agreed. ‘addressing the youth, or having that flair, was always the top thing in his mind. he had the knack of writing young dialogues, which would appeal to a new generation. ’
karan johar offered a more perceptive explanation for husain’s skill in writing such dialogues. ‘i think that dialogue is a reflection of your awareness of the times. he was constantly evolving. the fact that he had a lot of young people around him helped. i feel that about yash chopra also because he had two young boys, he kept himself alive and young. nasir sa’ab had aamir and mansoor and the girls, nuzhat and nikhat [ aamir’s sister ]. some were esoteric, some were evolved, some were internationally informed. aamir was a little more filmy. mansoor was a little more evolved in a different way. i think he surrounded himself with such a blend of energies even in their growing - up years; that definitely helped him. i also think he was an observer. the fact that his costumes were such, his music is contemporary, that means his awareness factor was huge. i’ve always felt that nasir husain was a very aware man. he was aware of his surroundings. he was aware of what was happening in the world, not just his country and city. ’
what the dialogues of jjws also established is that husain, who first started writing for films in 1949, remained relevant for close to forty - five years. he had kept himself updated to the changed idiom of every passing decade. his dialogues for amar / raj in munimji or ramesh in paying guest in the mid - 1950s were as true to the syntax of those times as sanjay lal sharma’s were to the early 1990s. aamir spoke at length to explain the significance of husain’s talent in dialogue - writing: ‘i think he wrote characters very well, which also come out through dialogues … dialogues are the main source from which you come to know what a person is like. what are the words that a person uses? this tells you a lot about the character. so dialogues are very, very important in building a character. dialogues also carry your scenes. so while i may have a story in the broad sense, the screenplay is one step deeper, the dialogues at the deepest level, which actually then incorporates all the things that the story and the screenplay originally intended. now if the dialogues don’t ring true, no matter what i’m imagining the scene is, it won’t turn out that way unless the dialogues actually carry that feeling. so that’s the final step in writing — the dialogues .
‘and what is amazing about nasir sa’ab is that he remained relevant creatively for a very long time. from 1949 to akele hum akele tum [ husain wrote the dialogues ], which is 1995, is forty - six years. there are a handful of names that cross five decades and remain relevant creatively over such a long period. now nasir sa’ab may not have remained relevant as a director, but he began as a writer. so as a writer he remained relevant over five decades. it is a very remarkable thing, to be able to write for an audience in the 1940s and then to be able to write for an audience in each successive decade all the way through to the ’90s. to remain relevant for different audiences of different decades really speaks about your longevity as a creative person. ’
this adaptability across decades made husain the majrooh sultanpuri of dialogue - writers. majrooh, who debuted as a lyricist with shahjehan (1946), kept his lyrics relevant and updated to reflect the voice of every successive generation right up to the new millennium, writing for films such as akele hum akele tum, khamoshi (1996) and pukar (2000) .
jo jeeta wohi sikandar, however, is a film that almost didn’t get made. mansoor, who directed the film, had severe problems with the original cast of the film. the actress nagma had been taken on to play devika’s role, but she bowed out just a few days before shooting commenced for the film in ooty. another lady, karishma pahuja, was then taken to play devika’s role, with south indian actress girija shettar playing anjali’s character and the model milind soman playing shekhar malhotra. but for various reasons, this cast didn’t work. mansoor had to sacrifice an entire schedule of the film before he replaced this cast with the cast that is now seen in the film…
…for all the obstacles that came the film’s way, jo jeeta wohi sikandar picked up best film at the 1993 filmfare awards .
jo jeeta wohi sikandar was the last film under the nasir husain banner. after this, husain wrote the dialogues of akele hum akele tum (1995), an adaptation of sidney pollack’s kramer vs. kramer (1979). the film was directed by mansoor, but was produced by ratan jain (venus). akele hum akele tum turned out to be the last film husain worked on. i asked mansoor whether husain had any reservations about him working as a director on akele hum akele tum outside the home banner, a film with a far more serious thread than husain’s cinema. ‘no, he didn’t, ’ mansoor said. ‘he felt akele hum akele tum was an emotional subject so it doesn’t necessarily have to be his style, but he felt that the story had enough appeal and it was worth making. ’

anand milind must be one of the most hated composers down south due to the number of songs they' ve copied from tamil and telugu films... mostly the southern maestro ilayaraja' s songs and occasionally a few of a r rahman' s. this page will bloat to an unmentionable size if i start including even half of those lifts .
the original was part of the soundtrack of the 1993 movie' only the strong'' .
inspired by neil diamond' s' play me'. but amazingly improvised that its almost hard to detect that its inspired !
lifted exactly from the song' chunni ud ud jaaye' by uk based bhangra pop group alaap .
blatant rip!' sona na chaandi' was part of the soundtrack of the pakistani movie bandish (1980) with music by robin ghosh .
partly inspired by the rock n roll track, blue suede shoes by carl perkins .
a note - to - note copy of the 1977 shadows' track,' return to the alamo' .
this would rate as one of the most heart - breaking lifts i' ve encountered so far! and its so damn blatant that you almost think that the instrumental piece i' ve added here is simply an instrumental version of the qsqt track. the first thing that came to my mind after listening to the original was,'... and they got paid for this?' note: i still think someone' s gonna mail me saying that the original listed above is nothing but an instrumental version of the hindi track and that this site sucks. i strongly suggest that such people check out the' shadows' site and the page which talks about' return to the alamo' .
direct lift from pakistani singer hassan jehangir' s song of the same name .
straight lift, made a bit more racy by anand milind in the filmi version .
the problem with working on more exotic sources of lifts is that simpler, pop influences by the likes of anand milind seems like a complete bore. but, lets not distinguish between interesting and uninteresting lifts and make the composer duo of anand milind feel neglected. so, lets honor them for their bland, flat, outright silly lift of jon secada' s 1992 hit,' just another day'. apparently anand milind used this track to create,' tere dil ne', a supposedly dropped - from - the - film track for the anil kapoor starrer' loafer' (1996). surprisingly, this is one of shankar mahadevan' s earliest tracks as a full fledged playback singer - this was during the period when he was doing fringe playback and studio versions, much like the singer krishna, these days. shankar does sound quite odd too and i' m sure would appropriately cringe if one were to point this out to him today !
lifted off the 1974 kannada number,' endendu ninnanu' from the dr rajkumar film, eradu kanasu .

in 1988, when the concept of channels dedicated to trailers were completely alien, we relied on the services of chhayageet and chitrahaar on doordarshan for a weekly dose of soundtrack videos to enjoy everything new, popular or timeless .
around then, i noticed the promotion for mansoor khan' s directorial debut is unusually keen. sometimes they' d air more than one song from the about - to - release romance starring two unfamiliar faces - - aamir khan and juhi chawla. and right before the clip, they' d play out its multiple posters, almost like a powerpoint presentation .
moreover, anand - milind' s gleaming score against majrooh sultanpuri' s fanciful poetry was a smash hit from the word go. every single song - - papa kehte hain, ghazab ka hai din, aye mere humsafar, akele hain toh kya gham and kaahe sataye sung by udit narayan and alka yagnik made a lasting impression on its listeners. i heard this over my transistor from the legendary ameen sayani on his musical countdown, cibaca sangeet mala and experienced it first hand when the frequent playing of its cassette resulted in recurring damage and buying three new tapes .
now, summer vacations had just started and i was holidaying with my family at my aunt' s home who neither had a vcr nor a colour television. owing to the instant hysteria it generated, tickets weren' t available easily (remember no multiple screens or show) but the video was out in the market within a week or so .
yielding to my constant pleas, my aunt rented its vhs tape and asked her landlady in the adjacent bungalow to play the video, which was then relayed on our tv by using a splitter. (at that time, it felt like the coolest technology ever. )
e ventually i watched it several times again, in colour - - (cinematographer) kiran deohans creates a ravishing imagery on plasma / lcd / led / screens, you name it - - to know its entire screenplay by heart .
though this romeo and juliet - inspired confection doesn' t have an exceptional storyline, mansoor creates an endearing equation around the shy, aloof raj (aamir) and spirited, jabbering rashmi (juhi) .
l overs facing parental opposition against the backdrop of enemy clans is not a novel premise. but what sets qsqt apart is how mansoor prefers to focus on building the connection between a boy and a girl from warring rajput families, making them genuine and likable as well as a steady refusal to spin them into melodramatic beings on discovering each other' s true identity .
where raj and rashmi are concerned, they' re both very young and petrified of their fierce, temperamental fathers preferring to lie through their teeth instead of engaging ugly confrontations. sparks fly between them immediately - - all through the time a trigger - happy rashmi clicks pictures of him against a sunset or when raj cleans her wounds with cotton swabbed in dettol following rashmi' s heartfelt admission of her feelings for him to right till the part where the twain elope and play house on top of a rugged hill.
