Look what song I have stumbled upon today ! This movie is called “Jhoola” (1941). It is as old a movie as any, and surprisingly, the quality of audio and video of this song is quite good.

I was not aware of this movie called “Kinaare Kinaare” (1963), but what a musical bonanza this movie turns out to be !

I keep stumbling upon forgotten gems almost on a daily basis, and look what I have unearthed here ! This song is from a movie called “Biraadari” (1966). I am sure most people, including me , are aware of “Baraadari” rather than “Biraadari”.
