Yeah, the singers in those times had a healthy respect for each other even if they were competitors. In Basant Bahar, Mannada had to sing for Bharat Bhushan's character who would win in a competition against Bhimsen Joshi and he was horrified at the thought, the MDs had to convince him to do it.
I have heard Mannada speak in glowing terms about Rafi and Rafi do the same for him. In fact, Rafi said- A lot of people may listen to my songs but I only listen to Mannadey songs. And although Rafi and Kishore fans are usually at loggerheads, the two men in question had nothing but deep regard for each other.
I know, my dad was the same, though he wasn't too much into movie trivia, more into music trivia. And he would know stuff about what went on at the making of a certain song, but his era of expertise was the Saigal times upto the 50s.
I'm guessing it's actually "terenanu" which are common filler words in the alaap they use in Carnatic music. But "tere leloon" is funnier! 😆
