I did a song in Jhootha Kahin Ka, which had a lot of adlibbing to do,with dialogues in the song. He made it all very carefree just adapting to mystyle,” Kapoor says.The Hum Kisise Kum Nahin star feels that Burman’s music has a timeless quality and this why youngsters identify with his songs even today. “The music of ’1942-A Love Story’ was a national event.
