B Praak ‘honoured his songwriter’

My blog on the music of Hindi films that released between 1969 and 1986 contained Jaanu Meri Jaan from Shaan, which released in 1980.

And the subject of this post could be called Jaani’s Meri Jaan Meri Jaan, because it was written by the songwriter whose name was always on veteran actor Raaj Kumar’s lips.

It was the longest of the four songs from Bachchhan Paandey in my collection – it was four minutes and eight seconds long.

The involvement of B Praak in the song wasn’t restricted to composing it, but he sang it too.
