It wasn’t wortH (Kh)another L(ew)isten

What bugged people in India more than the Y2K problem? The answer was the mediocre soundtrack of Mela (2000) in general, and its catchiest track – Dekho 2000 Zamana Aa Gaya – in particular.

Aamir Khan, the leading man of the film, was credited as one of the three who rendered it.

The others were the Colonial Cousins (Hariharan and Lesle Lewis). In fact, the latter composed the track, which was four minutes and 54 seconds long. It was his only contribution to the soundtrack.

The song was penned by Dharmesh Darshan, the director of the film.
