This Lata solo was unforgettable

Both the Lata Mangeshkar solos on the soundtrack of Dil Ek Mandir were at opposite ends of the spectrum as far as their durations were concerned.

Hum Tere Pyar Mein was the longest song in the film – it was four minutes and 47 seconds long.

It was penned by Hasrat Jaipuri, who surprised Hindi film buffs with such lines as, “Jab pyar hua is pinjre se, tum kehne lage azaad raho”. It could be translated to, “When I fell in love with this cage, you said, ‘Be free’.”

The song was composed by Shankar Jaikishan.
