Neelesh Misra Excluded from 2006 Music Launch

Lyricist Neelesh Misra has publicly expressed disappointment over not being invited to the music launch of the 2006 film 'Woh Lamhe', despite writing the popular song 'Kya Mujhe Pyaar Hai'. His comments came after actress Kangana Ranaut shared an archival video from the event, highlighting the ongoing issue of writers being sidelined in the music industry. Misra's experience reflects a broader problem within the Indian music scene, exemplified by recent controversies involving the T-Series label, which holds the rights to the film's music. T-Series has faced criticism and legal action from artists regarding exploitation and unauthorized use of music. Misra's revelation has sparked discussions online, with many fans recalling the song's impact on their lives while criticizing the industry's lack of recognition for lyricists. His situation underscores the need for greater acknowledgment of writers' contributions in the film industry.
