Question: Though popular, the soundtrack of “Akele Hum Akele Tum”(1995) had as many as four of its five tracks copied from other English songs. The title track was copied from a 1959 number ‘But You Love Me Daddy’. Name the singer.
Incorrect Answer
Correct Answer The Jim Reeves number was released in 1959, with words and music by Kathryn Twitty. The other three tunes were lifted from ‘Love Theme’ of the “Godfather” soundtrack by Nino Rota, ‘Last Christmas’ by Wham and Deep Purple’s ‘Sweet Child In Time’. The music director of the film, Anu Malik, is infamous for his ‘inspired’ tunes. Incidentally, the basic storyline of the movie is also a direct copy of Robert Benton’s “Kramer vs. Kramer” (1979).
