The
R.D.
Burman
revival
rage
seems
no
sign
of
waning.
In
Kaminey,
Vishal
Bhardwaj
has
used
two
RD-Asha
Bhosle
tracks
Duniya
mein
logon
ko
and
Do
labzon
ki
hai
yeh
dil
ki
kahani.
And
now
in
Sohail
Khan"s
production
of
Main
Aur
Mrs
Khanna,
R.D.Burman"s
Bade
achche
lagte
hain
makes
a
vital
appearance
and
mainly
because
the
word
'Raina" plays
a
prominent
part
in
the
song….Bade
achche
lamge
hain
yeh
dharti
yeh
nadiya
yeh
raina
aur
tum…..
Kareena
Kapoor"s
character
in
Main
Aur
Mrs
Khanna
is
named
Raina.
The
film
required
a
strong
nostalgic
theme
song
between
Kareena
and
Sohail
to
create
a
sense
of
intimacy
between
the
couple.
And
since
the
Amit
Kumar"s
song
from
Shakti
Samanta"s
Balika
Badhu
was
everyone"s
favourite,
Bade
achche
lage
hain
became
the
chosen
one
in
Main
Aur
Mrs
Khanna,
overriding
the
other
popular
choice
Raina
beeti
jaye
also
from
a
Shakti
Samanta
film(Amar
Prem),
Says
Sohail,
“It"s
a
song
that
we
all
chose
unanimously.
It
comes
on
when
my
character
meets
Kareena.
When
we
meet,
the
song
plays
in
the
background.
Since
her
character
is
named
Raina
we
loved
the
idea
of
having
the
song."
Interestingly
Sohail
Khan"s
other
production
Kissan
also
revives
an
old
song
Mere
desh
ki
dharti.
But
there"s
a
difference.
Explains
Sohail,
“While
Mere
deshi
ki
dharti
is
part
of
the
film"s
soundtrack
we
won"t
put
Bade
achche
lagte
hain
in
the
album
for
Main
Aur
Mrs
Khanna.
Though
we"ve
legitimately
bought
the
rights
for
the
song.
Let"s
just
say,
we
mean
it
to
be
a
tribute
to
R.D,
Burman
and
the
tradition
in
Hindi
lyrics
celebrating
raina
(night)."
