Reception
In 1983, EMI awarded it a Platinum disc for exceeding 150,000 cassette sales in Pakistan.[5] The album went on to become a success in India,[3] and in South East Asia, where it was awarded a Double Platinum Disc.[6] The Hong Kong magazine Asiaweek reported that the album sold 100,000 cassettes in its first three weeks, with demand remaining consistent afterwards.[7] The album went on to sell over 40 million copies worldwide.[1][2]
Over thirty years later, an India Today article titled "Nazia makes a lovely comeback" celebrated Nazia Hassan's music appearing in the cult 2012 film, Miss Lovely that had premiered at the Cannes Film Festival: "The film has made the audience nostalgic over Ahluwalia's use of the song "Dum dum de de" from Hassan's 1984 album, Young Tarang."[8] Miss Lovely director, Ashim Ahluwalia, described keeping the original track untouched: "The song symbolises the '80s and the lyrics of the song were in sync with the mood of the film. [We] retained the original voice of Nazia. We didn't want to remix this song because the original was perfect."[8]
