Most listeners of these ghazals would identify these songs with Mukesh, Lata Mangeshkar and Begum Akhtar, respectively, as it so often happens in case of popular Hindi film songs.

The first three songs in the movie (as well as the story) dealt primarily with cricket and the first three songs too dealt with cricket.
