One of the more delightful aspects of Vijay 69 is the use of the song "Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu". The song is portrayed as the favourite Hindi track of Vijay's (Anupam Kher) late wife in the movie. It is featured a couple of times throughout the narrative, most notably (SPOILER ALERT) during the climax, where it serves as a source of motivation for Vijay to complete the triathlon he has been striving to achieve.

For those unfamiliar with the song, here's everything you need to know about "Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu".

All You Need to Know About 'Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu'

The original song is from the 1965 film Waqt, which featured an ensemble cast including Balraj Sahni, Raaj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Shashi Kapoor, Sadhana Shivdasani, Sharmila Tagore, and Achala Sachdev, holding a distinction to be Bollywood's first multi-starrer movie. It makes perfect sense for YRF to include this song, as Waqt was directed by the late Yash Chopra, the founder of the banner, though it was under BR Films, the production house of his elder brother, BR Chopra. The Romantics Review: Celebrating Yash Chopra Aside, Netflix Docu-Series Loves Decoding 'Genius' of Aditya Chopra With Enough Sprinkling of Starry Nostalgia.

The soundtrack of Waqt was composed by the late 'Bombay' Ravi, with lyrics by the legendary Sahir Ludhianvi. The film's music includes timeless classics such as "Ae Meri Zohra Jabeen", "Waqt Se Din Aur Raat", "Maine Ek Khwab Sa Dekha", and "Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu".

Specifically focusing on "Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu", the song is set at a party that features most of the main cast, with actress Erica Lal performing the number on screen. In reality, the song is beautifully sung by the iconic Asha Bhosle.

In case you want to learn the lyrics of "Aage Bhi Jane Na Tu", here it is:

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai

Aage bhi jaane na tu

Anjaane saayo kaa raaho me deraa hai

Andekhi baaho ne ham sabko gheraa hai

Ye pal ujaala hai baaki adheraa hai

Ye pal ganvaanaa na ye pal hi teraa hai

Jinewale soch le yahi waqt hai kar le puri aarazu

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai

Is pal ki jalavo ne mehafil savaari hai

Is pal ki garmi ne dhadkan ubhaari hai

Is pal ke hone se duniya hamaari hai

Ye pal jo dekho to sadiyo pe vaari hai

Jinewale soch le yahi waqt hai kar le puri aarazu

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai

Aage bhi jaane na tu

Is pal ke saae me apnaa thikaanaa hai

Is pal ki aage ki har shay fasaanaa hai

Kal kisne dekhaa hai kal kisne jaanaa hai

Is pal se paayegaa jo tujako paanaa hai

Jinewale soch le yahi vaqt hai kar le puri aarazu

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai

Aage bhi jaane na tu, pichhe bhi jaane na tu

Jo bhi hai, bas yahi ek pal hai
