तेरी मेरी मेरी तेरी प्रेम कहानी है मुश्किल

"When we are made for each other, we got separated from each other" — each lover sings to the other in sadness and desperation. And, then each goes on to elaborate on that one theme.

You can see intense collusion between Bollywood's storywriters and lyricists. It almost seems that each feeds the other inexorably in creating the final product, the movie.

साथिया ... साथिया ... पगले से दिल ने ये क्या किया

The female lover sings how her [miscreant] heart has chosen its lover without her knowledge ... 

The poet has chosen to refer to the heart in third person, as though the real she is different from her heart. Such separation helps in understanding when the heart does good things and bad, a clear ingredient in making the head rule the heart. That all of this woven to memorable music is, of course, the beauty of this creation.

ಅವರಿವರಾ ಜೊತೆ ಸೇರದೇ, ಅವರಿವರಾ ನುಡಿ ಕೇಳದೇ

The song is about lovers' romantic overture to each other, although one line in the lyrics is somewhat baffling: ನನ್ನನ್ನಷ್ಟೇ ... ಸಾಯೋ ಹಾಗೆ ನೀನು ಪ್ರೀತಿಸು¹. The male lover exhorts the female "to love only him ... so as to make him -- her? -- feel dead." I wonder what the lyricists had in mind. This song is penned by two lyricists: Shashank Raj and Yogaraj Bhat.

As usual in Indian movies these days, this is a dream sequence that escapes from the main story line; nevertheless, there is a certain believable aspect to it.

Why I did I have to write a blog post on this song? Sonu Nigam is the male singer, of course, and the musical interludes are quite pleasant to listen to.
