Pehla Nasha is a song composed by a great Indian music director duo of two brothers, Jatin Pandit and Lalit Pandit. These two are known for making iconic compositions of the 20s that we are still deeply connected with.
Pehla Nasha was composed by Jatin-Lalit for Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, and it was the first film that got them a Filmfare Award for Best Music Director. Then, the duo also came up with another soundtrack in 1992 for the movie Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. Both brothers said that R.D. Burman inspired their style of music composition. Apart from Pehla Nasha, Jatin Lalit also gave us the unforgettable music of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, and this movie soundtrack is considered the epitome of Bollywood.
Pehla Nasha means the first addiction, but here, the addiction is used metaphorically to show that the person is talking about love. The song was part of a cult classic Jo Jeeta Wo Hi Sikander, which means "The One Who Wins Is The King," the movie was released in 1992 in an Indian-Hindi language coming-of-age sports film, which was directed and even co-written by Manso Khan. This movie shows stars like Aamir Khan, Ayesha Jhulka, Deepak Tijoiri, Pooja Bedi, and others. The movie was able to grab the Best Film Award in Filmfare, then in 1999, it was once again made in Telugu, and from there, it was made in multiple languages.
The film was directed by Mansoor Khan, and the plot was written and produced by Nasir Hussain. Before Deepak Tijori got the role, Milind Soman was signed to play Shekhar Malhotra. In many ways, the movie's plot was quite similar to what we saw in 1979's American film Breaking Away. However, the film director said he only learned about American films after release. The lyricsSultanpuri penned the lyrics of the song Pehla Nasha, and Udit Narayan and Sadhana Sargam gave the vocals.
