It was a mind-BLowing number

Honthon Mein Aisi Baat was the longest of the six songs from Jewel Thief on this blog – it was seven minutes and 58 seconds long.

Its last two verses – which went, “Raat kaali nagan si hui hai jawaan” and “Aisa mera jwala sa tan lehraaye” – began with, “Ho Shalu”, a shout-out to Vyjayanthimala’s character in the film.

The outstanding S D Burman composition, which was penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri, was rendered by Lata Mangeshkar, Bhupinder Singh and a chorus.

It was one of the tracks in the Antakshari sequence in Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) too.
