Indeed, this mantra was (Kisho)remarkable

Given my long-standing love for finding humour even in tracks that were far from funny, I’ve often read songs containing the word Jeevan (which means life) in the voice of character actor Jeevan, who has essayed Narad Muni in many a mythological, and later, the baddie.

Unfortunately, the subject of this post – Jeevan Mein Tu Darna Nahin – made no sense in that context.

It wasn’t merely a song from Khote Sikkay (1974), but a mantra too.

The track, which was (Kisho)rendered by Mr Kumar, was penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by R D Burman.
