They weren’t R(aa)(ig)h(t)on the M(o)N(e)Y

If Raahon Mein Chhayee, from Dillagi, were to be described using just one word, it would be passable.

But music aficionados cut Shankar Mahadevan, Noorani (Ehsa)and Loy Mendonsa some slack, because it was one of the first Hindi films for which they composed.

The track, which was penned by Javed Akhtar, was rendered by three singers, (Naraya)namely Alka Yagnik, Mahadevan and Udit.

Its opening lines – Raahon mein chhayee aisi rangeeniyaan, dekhoon jidhar bhi hain nazaare jawaan – could be translated to, “The paths are filled with colour. Wherever I cast my gaze, there are youthful scenes.”
