wada song (aka what a song!)

Thanks to the efforts of Renu I finally have a rough copy of a lost (yet famous) song of the 80s by the late R D Burman from an Anil Kapoor-Madhuri Dixit action vehicle called Hifazat. Starting off as an ode to the delectable batata vada the song employs all the 80s RDB trademarks: potentially unrelated phrases and oodles of electronica, mridangam and loops mixed together in a heady mix with conventional Bollywood violin sweeps and flourishes to burgeon into a duet about the unpredictability and inevitability of love. 'Nuff said.
