Dhurandhar has overshadowed all other film/film music discussions these past few months. One topic of discussion around it was the number of singers used in the film. So I used @myswar data to collate a list of Hindi films that feature 15 singers or more. mavrix.in/2026/05/hindi-…

Trivia - This was the first time Nasir Husain experimented with a song sequence in a medley format. The medley consisted of two original compositions followed by two lines from R.D. Burman's hit song from another film, "Dum Maaro Dum" ("Hare Rama Hare Krishna", 1971). Husain went on to use this format more extensively in two more films - "Hum Kisise Kum Naheen" (1977) and "Zamaane Ko Dikhana Hai" (1981). myswar.co/song_details/y…

@kalyan_sundares Thanks. Incorporated a bunch of trivia from this interview.

@myswar Here goes. youtu.be/P2eYBcnxP4E?si… It's after the 9:25 mark.

Trivia - This was only the second Shankar-Jaikishan film released during Shailendra's lifetime that did not feature any songs written by him. Shankar-Jaikishan collaborated with Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri in almost all their films until Shailendra passed away in 1966. Before this, there was one film in which the composer duo did not work with Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri - their film "College Girl" (1960) had lyrics by Rajendra Krishan. myswar.co/album/arzoo-19…
