As we all know, music an important role in films as it is said to be an emotional backdrop of the scene that delves and portrays the emotions of the person especially when he is trying to imitate a situation whether it is happy or tragic. There are numerous examples from Bollywood films like ‘Naadaan Parinday’, ‘Ye Jo Des Hai Tera’, ‘Sach Keh Raha Hai Deewana’ and one that is closest to our ‘Lukka Chuppi’ and so on.
But, here we are talking about one of the sensational tracks that was released in the early 90s but is loved by audience till date. Not just that, this one song gave recoganition to an actress and made her an overnight star.
You might’ve been thinking that here we are talking about music stalwarts like Kishore Kumar, Mohammad Rafi, Sonu Nigam, Kumar Sanu, Alka Yagnik or about the Nightingale Of India Lata Mangeshkar but, sorry for keeping your hopes down, we are not. Instead of these prominent singers our industry has one more music composer who has given us iconic numbers like ‘Ae Watan Tere Liye’, ‘Khalnayak Hoon Main’ and the foot-tapping track ‘Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast’.
Yes, you guessed it right, here we are talking about singer-composer Kavita Krishnamurthy who has created a huge legacy for herself in the Indian Cinema. But, did you know that due to her one mistake, an actress got a lifetime opportunity of enormous fame in her life?
There’s a saying that even smallest of the small mistake can also be a huge opportunity for someone, the same happened here. In the year 1987, Kavita sang a song named ‘Hawa Hawaai’ from Shekhar Kapur’s blockbuster flick ‘Mr India’. The song featured Sridevi in her dazzling avatar, now here comes a catch! While singing the song, Kavita sang one of the lines in the wrong manner which was supposed to be like ‘Jaanu Jo Tumne Baat Chupaai’ while she said ‘Jeenu Jo Tumne Jab Baat Chipaai’. Later, instead of retaking the director decided to go on with the lines because of the dedication of Sridevi on set which turned out to be a massive factor in the success of everyone including Sridevi and Kavita as well.
The immensely talented star made her stellar debut in the industry as a child in the as a child in 1967 Tamil film ‘Kandhan Karunai’ at the age of four. Later, the actress made her debut in Bollywood with Bharatiraja’s ‘Solwa Sawan’. The actress rose to huge fame in the era of 80s when she was featured in films like ‘Chandni’, ‘Mr India’, ‘Chaalbaaz’, ‘Judaai’ and many more.
Sridevi died at the age of 54, after suffering from cardiac arrest. As per reports, she suffered loss of consciousness due to which she accidentally drowned in the bathtub of her hotel room.
