Kalyanji-Anandji

1980–1994: Continued success, setback, resurgence and final works

Kalyanji-Anandji began the 1980s with huge blockbusters like Vinod Khanna starrer Qurbani (1980) and Amitabh Bachchan starrer Lawaaris (1981), both of which had notable songs like "Laila O Laila", "Hum Tumhain Chahte Hain" in the former and "Apni To Jaise Taise", "Mere Angne Mein" in the latter. The soundtrack of Qurbani proved to be the sixth best-selling Hindi film album of the 1980s with Kalyanji-Anandji receiving another nomination in Filmfare Award for Best Music Director category. In 1982, they delivered music in Subhash Ghai's top-grosser Vidhaata. Its songs "Hathon Ki Chand Lakeeron Ka" and "Udi Baba Udi Baba Udi Baba" were equally successful among the masses.
