Will you do it?’ Pancham and I shared a very warm and close relationship. He rang me up and said, ‘Didi there‘s one final song in 1942: A Love Story which (director) Vidhu Vinod Chopra is very keen that you sing. “I only knew what Pancham (R D Burman) told me. Was Lataji aware of the song’s history? Absolutely not. The song had already been recorded in Kavita Krishnamurthy’s voice when it was done again by Lataji. Of the two versions of the songs sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Kumar Sanu, there was a bit of controversy over the female version, sung to immortality by Lataji. If Rahul Dev Burman’s swan song ' Kuch na kaho, kuch bhi na kaho' is remembered so vividly to this day, it has more to do with the staying power of the limitlessly talented composer rather than any intrinsic merit of the song’s parent film 1942: A Love Story.
