But do you know that this song was not only in the voice of Amitabh Bachchan, but it was also sung by Alka Yagnik? There is an interesting story behind this song!

How did Alka Yagnik's career game makeser?
Alka was new to the Yagnik industry in the eighties. He had studied classical music since childhood, but his journey in the film industry had just started. At that time, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle dominated women singers. In such a situation, it was not easy to make space for Alka.

When composer Kalyanji-Anandji talked about choosing a singer for the female version of 'Mere Angane Mein', Asha Bhosle did not talk and Alka Yagnik got a chance. This proved to be a big break for him. However, later 'Ek Do Teen' of 'Tezaab' made him a superstar, but 'Mere Angane Me' gave him the first identity.

Where was the version of Alka sung in the film?
The song for the role of Rakhi in the film was recorded in the voice of Alka Yagnik. According to the story, Rakhi is an artist who gives birth to a child without marrying, who grows up and plays the role of Amitabh Bachchan (diamond).

In the initial part of the film, Rakhi 'sings' in my limb', in which the mentality of the society is sarcast – “Jo hai hai namwala, he is notorious.”

When 'Mere Angane Mein' was released, Harivansh Rai Bachchan's name was recorded as its lyricist on the record. This made the audience felt that this song was written by Amitabh's father and sang, which made it even more popular.

Later, when the investigation took place, it was revealed that the song is an old folk song in Uttar Pradesh, which was sung in marriage. Its original writer was unknown, so the name of Harivansh Rai Bachchan was later removed from the record and it was “traditional”.
