As timeless as the film itself, R. D. Burman’s virtuosic touch is felt here on one of Bollywood’s classic soundtracks. The unforgettable buddy tune, “Yeh Dosti Hum Nahin”, incorporates bubbly ‘70s disco vibes—underscored by an absorbing performance by Kishore Kumar and Manna Dey. The upbeat feel is carried into the stringed and percussive accents of the effervescent “Holi Ke Din”, brightened by Lata Mangeshkar’s sweet tone. Another highlight comes from the composer himself, as the yodel-like refrains of “Mehbooba Mehbooba” worm their way into the ear to be hummed days later.
