Genius of Jaidev – 54
———————————-
Four songs out of eleven from the 1971 film EK THI REETA are still to be covered. I am unable to locate a Sarla Kapoor song ‘main to usise karungi naina char’ and an English song ‘Mamma says I am nineteen’. So that leaves two Asha solos to be covered by me. After this one presented today the next one will follow soon if approved by Hari Ichchha.

Probably, the film must have ended with the sinner getting reformed.

But the fact is one can not talk about the 50’s music without mentioning C Ramchandra !
