For my next song we turn to a Lata Mangeshkar melody – “Sultana Mera Naam Hai” from Sangram (1976) which is a lively cabaret-style dance number composed by Bappi Lahiri with lyrics by Gauhar Kanpuri. It is a nightclub-oriented songs and reflects the changing musical trends of the mid-1970s, when Western rhythms and cabaret sequences had become popular in Hindi cinema.

Musically, the song combines a strong dance beat with brass instrumentation and a catchy refrain. Bappi Lahiri’s arrangement is energetic but not yet as disco-driven as the style he would become famous for a few years later. Instead, it sits somewhere between the traditional Hindi film cabaret of the 1960s and the emerging disco sound of the late 1970s.

“Deewana Hoon Pyar Ka” sung by Kishore Kumar is from the film “Qaid” (1975). The song was written by Maya Govind and composed by Nitin Mangesh.

Nitin–Mangesh were a Hindi film music composer duo active mainly during the 1970s and early 1980s, remembered as part of a generation of talented but relatively lesser-known Bollywood composers who worked during an era dominated by giants such as Laxmikant–Pyarelal, R. D. Burman, and Kalyanji–Anandji.
