Jagjit Singh's version was soporific at best. The original Salilda tune has been used in another song and has also been sung by Mukesh. I'm not sure which one came first the Bengali or the Hindi version. The arrangements are different. The hindi song starts with a distinct chord on the guitar. The bengali version has a much more interesting string arrangement in the background.<br />Here is Mukesh singing in Bengali. <br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6GkHnEopdw<br /><br />I really like Arundhati Holme-Chowdhury singing it though I prefer the orchestral arrangement of the Mukesh original. This is her version.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHHBgm3MIyk<br /><br />Salilda even used it in a Malayalam version sung by Unni Menon with yet another arrangement. <br /><br />http://www.salilda.com/songs/nonfilm/malayalam/yaathrayay.mp3SSWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309362817539389132.post-3289230157388697722015-02-22T12:11:43.702-05:002015-02-22T12:11:43.702-05:00Shalini's post reminded me of Jagjit Singh'...Shalini's post reminded me of Jagjit Singh's "shaam hone ko hai".<br />http://youtu.be/4StSMuVyyBoNeerunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309362817539389132.post-27677239009578235672015-02-22T12:10:08.723-05:002015-02-22T12:10:08.723-05:00I had heard this one in Asha's voice, I like M...I had heard this one in Asha's voice, I like Mukesh's rendition .
