माझे गुरु आणि संगीतातील आयडियल महोम्मद रफी यांच्या गाण्यांना असलेला गोडवा साधेपणा या दोघांनी नेमके पणाने या गाण्यात उतरविला. प्रेम ही एकमेव भावना जी जगाच्या पाठीवर कायम आणि सारखीच आहे अशी भावना गाण्यात ऐकायची असेल तर प्रितेश-मितेश यांनी लिहिलेलं आणि संगीतबद्ध केलेलं ‘मन उगाच हासते कशामुळे, हृदय ही धडकू लागते कुणामुळे‘!… ‘मेमरी कार्ड‘ सिनेमातील एव्हरग्रीन सॉंग रेकॉर्ड करताना मी सुद्धा जवळपास दोन तास घेतले आणि त्यातील प्रत्येक क्षण माझ्या मेमरी कार्ड मध्ये सेव्ह करून घेतला.
