Remarkable Soundtrack - The hero of Kabhi Kabhie is Sahir, his songs, veering close to autobiographical at times, pack in more emotion than anything else. And Khayyam lends an able helping hand, coming up with the exuberent “Tera phoolon jaisa rang” to lend variety to “Main pal do pal” and the famous title song “Kabhie Kabhie”. Sahir’s soaked-in-love words and Khayyam’s music made each and every song a mesmerising one. 

Unforgettable Dialogues – “Meri zindagi ka har ek pal, tere husn se hai juda hua, tere honth thirke toh subah hai, teri zulf bhikre toh raat hai” is one of Amitabh Bachchan’s most unforgettable dialogues. Also, how can we forget Raakhee’s iconic, “Tum insaan ke roop mein devta ho, yah devta ke roop mein insaan?”. The movie is packed with such well thought dialogues that don’t just stick with you for days, but years.
