Film: Raja
Our song of the day is the chartbuster ‘Akhiyaan Milaoon Kabhi’ from Raja, one of Madhuri Dixit’s best dance songs from the 90s. Madhuri and Anil Kapoor were a hit pair then, and this was her first film with his brother Sanjay Kapoor. She is said to have restricted her dance moves because Sanjay was not as good a dancer. The song is sung in praise of the hero’s charm, but it is Madhuri who steals hearts. The duet by Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik has been remixed many times since its release. The film won Madhuri awards and was also Sanjay Kapoor’s first box-office hit.
