"Koi Jab Tumhara Hriday Tod De" is a soulful song from the 1970 movie Purab Paschim, sung by the legendary playback singer Mukesh. The music for this song was composed by Kalyanji-Anandji, and the lyrics were penned by Indeevar.
The making of this song is quite interesting. Reportedly, Mukesh had some difficulty in initially rendering the high notes in the composition. To help him, Kalyanji-Anandji decided to record the song in a lower key. However, they were concerned about how the change would affect the overall feel of the song.
To ensure that the song retained its emotional intensity, Mukesh suggested that he sing the song while lying down on his back. This unconventional approach allowed him to reach the high notes more comfortably, and it also added a unique vulnerability and emotion to his vocals. The final recording was a huge success, and the song became one of the most memorable tracks from the movie.
This story is a testament to Mukesh's incredible vocal range and his ability to adapt to challenging situations. It also highlights the innovative approach of Kalyanji-Anandji in finding solutions to technical difficulties in the recording studio.
