'Tere Naina' from My Name Is Khan
Shafqat Amanat Ali gets the tone just right for this Shankar Ehsaan Loy composition, and it's a smooth transition even when the song moves to qawwali mode as it progresses. Niranjan Iyengar's subtly passionate lyrics add to the effect.

There's just one word for this song - Amazing! You can trust the fantastic Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan to spot every musical and lyrical nuance, and add his special touch to it. Vishal Bharadwaj's music soothes and takes you back to the past with fantastic support from Gulzar's lyrics.
