Yash (film)


Yash is a 1996 Indian Bollywood musical film directed by Sharad Saran. It stars Bijay Anand, Kartika Rane, Dilip Dhawan, Mangal Dhillon, Dina Pathak, Parikshat Sahni, Ajit Vachani and Sonu Walia. Its songs "Subah Subah Jab Khidki Khole" and "Yaaron Na Jane Mujhe Kya Ho Gaya" went on to become surprise chartbusters at the time, giving instant fame to its debutant composer Tabun and its lyricist Mehboob Kotwal. The film bombed badly at the box office since it was never intended to be made into a full-length feature film until the songs became a rage.
