It has been a long time since me and Swatiji were planning to do a song together. We were planning to do a cover version of some Hindi song. That is when Ajay suggested this wonderful idea. He said he would write Hindi lyrics for a Malayalam song that was a hit some time ago. The Malayalam song is Thumpi Kinnaaram from the movie Naran, which was composed by Deepak Dev. What a wonderful idea, I thought. So here is Tanha Lamhon Mein, written by Ajay Chandran and sung by me and Swati Kanitkar.
So here is my first duet with Swati Kanitkar. Do listen to this song and let us know your thoughts. :-)

Wonderful song, very well sung by both of you! Enjoyed it a lot.
Hat's off Ajay for the brilliant idea! I wish I knew hindi to enjoy Ajay's poetry!
Deepak Dev is awesome!!
A good team effort and its a great idea too..! Hope we can expect such songs with malayalam tune with hindi/tamil lyrics more..:)
Wonderful !!! Good team-work :).
wonderful job Jo and Swati ...keep it up...!!
Hii Jo,
Beautiful rendition. Swati has also done a wonderful job.
Nice song Jo. Well sung...congratulations and best wishes...
Me thinks,this is a very novel idea in the audio blogging world. Am I right Jo? A very good one by both of you. And kudos to Ajay :) Keep going guys. You are bound to scale greater and greater heights
When I read your comment and before I listened to the song I was sceptical of how it will sound. Usually, many of the songs written for south indian movies may not sound very good in hindi esp. sometimes the lyrics do not go with the music well. However, after I listened to this song I said FANTASTIC !!!!
Hats off to Ajay...wonderful lyrics..
Swati..you are too good..I loved your voice... and
Jo..You sung very good...your hindi was 99.5% perfect !!!!!
I am waiting for more such songs....This idea will give lot of hindi speaking music lovers to listen to different and wonderful songs from malayalam/tamil movies.
nice Song...........Jo & Team
Best Wishes....

Hey Jo,
Here are some of the words were you had some diction issues (it will be difficult to correct here though):-
dil udtha hai yahan (dont stress on 'l' of dil so much.)
khwabon ka (n is just an enhancer here not to be completely pronounced.).
Aaj hum kho jaaye (kho sounded like ko)
in haseen sapnon ko (again n)
nice lyrics and gud singing..
hats off to ajay, u and swati..!!
>> Bindu: Thank you very much!
>> Sabu: Thank you for pointing these out Sabu! I appreciate it a lot. I shall take a note of it when I attempt a Hindi song next time.
>> Sreeja: Thank you chechoos! :-)
Cool idea, well rendered...been some time since I visited ur blog...good going!
Excellent Chetta....sorry have not been visiting here often...with Kaju around life is pretty hectic..
Swati's voice is amazing...as someone rightly said it seems like listening to some good old Asha Bhosle song....
>> Awatts: Thanks Ajitha.
>> IBH: Hey! Good to see you back after a long time! :-) I can guess how motherhood can make you busy. Had seen 4 sisters struggling with it. :-)
Very nice adaptation. Nice singing by both of you. Keep it up.
hey Joe,
Excellent work man, I used to hear your songs but just leave without sending any comments before.
But this is really brilliant, was not able to just listen and leave today.
I do hope we will be able to hear more Hindi version of Hit Malayalam Songs from you guys...
Once again, brilliant work..!!!
and yea.. Swatiji...
Your voice is simply awesome..
As someone posted here b4, feels like to hear old Asha Bhosle songs. You really recreated the mood of the song exactly the same, eventhough you dont understand Malayalam.
Ajay, good job man the lyrics are really great.
Thank you Murali and Vikas. :-)
Superbbbb team work!!! Glad I heard this albeit a lil late...
Jo,
WOW! really , WOW!
