Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka by Ashok Khare, Shailendra Singh

Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka is the kind of song that earns its place in a playlist and then refuses to leave. Raam, Laxman has a history of strong work, and the music on Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka is among the most memorable of it.

Ashok Khare, Shailendra Singh's vocal here has a quality that is difficult to describe but impossible to miss — it simply feels true. Hearing Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka without thinking of Mithun Chakraborty, Vijayata Pandit, Danny Denzongpa, Jagdeep is almost impossible for anyone who has seen Deewana Tere Naam Ka.

By the end of 1987, Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka had moved well beyond its original audience and into everyday playlists. The song rewards full attention but also works as company in the background — a flexibility that most tracks never achieve.

The concision of Ek Taraf Hai Apni Yari - Duet - Deewana Tere Naam Ka — just 5:55 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. The track stands as evidence that Ashok Khare, Shailendra Singh and Raam, Laxman, working together, are capable of something well above the ordinary.
