Pandit claimed Sanu failed to acknowledge the contributions of both the composers and lyricist Anand Bakshi when discussing the song’s success. Pandit stated, “It was a little upsetting. It is not good on his part to continuously say, ‘Mera gaana hai, mera gaana hai’ (This is my song, my song).”
Kumar Sanu REACTS to Lalit Pandit’s claims
Kumar Sanu has responded to Pandit’s comments with his appreciation for the song’s creators. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Sanu said, “Of course, if the music wasn’t like this, the song wouldn’t have been a hit. The same goes for the lyrics. I never thought otherwise. Jatin-Lalit are such music directors… every song has something special.”

Sanu further highlighted the collaborative nature of successful music creation. He stated, “There are no two thoughts that if the composition of ‘Tujhe Dekha Toh’ wasn’t such, the song would not have been a hit. If the lyrics weren’t so beautiful… It was total teamwork. Because of that, the song became a hit.”

Sanu suggested a misunderstanding and expressed his openness to discussing the issue with Jatin-Lalit directly.
