Daata Tere Kai Naam - Daata by Mahendra Kapoor, Manhar Udhas, Sadhana Sargam

Daata Tere Kai Naam - Daata is one of those rare Hindi tracks that manages to feel both fresh and familiar the moment it begins. The music, composed by Kalyanji, Anandji, carries the song forward with a confidence that matches the performance.

The performance by Mahendra Kapoor, Manhar Udhas, Sadhana Sargam is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. The chemistry of a talented ensemble cast is embedded in every moment of Daata Tere Kai Naam - Daata, making it as much a performance as a song.
