obsession !) by requesting all music lovers of INDIAN CINEMA
,including my Pakistani brothers/friends - to enumerate their personal
FIVE BEST FILM solo numbers of LATA MANGESHKAR of her career:
Besides, you will have to indicate why you like the song, preferably

The best thing happened in Hindi Film music Lata-CR Combination. HE
knew exactly how to create tunes for Lata and lata knew exactly what
to deliver. This pathos filled song in IMO was their best. His sweet
and melodic tunes was forte of Lata.
The other combination close to this was Lata with anil biswas but i
think CR tunes were more simple and more sweet more melodic.
2. Woh to chale gaye ae dil ( Sajjad- Sangdil)
I personally do not consider Sajjad genius due to his limited output
but this tune is ablsolutely brilliant. Lata's singing in early 50
fulfills all demand of this song and adds some little extra.
I prefer this song over humara bad ab mehfil mein and hum par mein
jalane walonko by MM.
3. julmi sag aankh ladi ( Madhumati- Salil)
Sweet folk tune. I wanted one folksy song in my list and could not
find better one even by SDB. I would have preferred Salil composing
this way than his westernised intricate tunes. Agaian utter sweetness
of this demanded Lata and what a performance !!
One more reason add folk song to this song. Lata never composed tunes
in Hindi but she composed for 5 movies in Marathi. The flavour of all
those songs was very folk based.
4. Kuch dil ne kaha ( Anupama- Hemant Kumar)
Dream song !!! Song sung by heart and not by lips. This song required
very delicate singing and choice was obvious.
I prefer this song over Chhip gay koi re , Phaili hue hain sapano ki
bahane, yeh dil aur unki nigahon ke saye, Aap yu phasalone se
guajarate rahe & rahe na rahe hum which in IMO similar kind of songs(
By mood) .
Also I consider HM as better composer than singer . My other favourite
of same combo is Sun ri sakhi mohe sajan bulaye from Nagin.
5. Man mohana bade zhuthe ( Seema- SJ)
SJ song in my list ???but wanted one classical based song and i think
this was the Best!!! Again this song was sung so softly inspite being
classical.( Compare with the noise Rafi and manna dey create in
classical based songs as if they are khan sahibs) . Also in IMO one of
best picturised songs. Nutan did perfect lip movements which Again IMO
best actress for lata's playback. ( Other 2 are madhubala and
vaijayantimala whose songs i have already included. I wish i could i
have included one song picturised on Sadhana also).
If given choice to include few more songs i will add
1. kail kali raat yeh dil bada sataye
2. duwa kar game dil
3. saware saware
4. tere pyar mein dildar
5. julm ulfat pe hamien log saja dete hain
