This is a soulful song from film Dil-E-Nadaan-1953,sung by Asha Bhosle,very effectively.
I know I have not been doing justice to Asha’s songs, for a long time now. It’s not that I dont like them, but somehow these songs almost never made it to my writings. Some of the solo songs of Asha, both Filmi and Non filmi are, in my opinion, any day better sung than Lata Mangeshkar !

Earlier today, Atul informed me that we are now closing in on 1400 songs for Asha Bhosle on the blog and maybe I’d like to do a write-up for her 1400th?
To date, I have never ever refused a request from Atul to do a write-up – and today was no exception. I immediately said “Sure”. For it is not just a pleasure, but also an honour, to do a write-up here on this blog. And if I ever have to say “no, sorry” to Atul, it would only be because of genuine constraints, never because of any other reason.
Thankfully that day hasn’t come yet – and hopefully it will not. Anything I can do to contribute to this blog in any capacity, I’d be happy to do.

Today (31 july 2013) is the 33rd death anniversary of Rafi(24 december 1924- 31 july 1980). Today is the day when we pay our heartfelt tribute to him. It is not that we do not remember him on the other days of the year except his anniversaries. Far from it. We in this blog have averaged more that one Rafi song a day for the five years and more that this blog has been in existence. In other words, we remember him everyday. He is in our thoughts everyday in almost every waking hours and sometimes in our sleeping hours as well in our dreams.

Namkeen (1982) tells us the story of the truck driver Gherulal (Sanjeev Kumar), who arrives in the life of an old woman (Waheeda Rehman) and her three daughters, and how his arrival changes their lives. He falls in love with the elder daughter (Sharmila Tagore), who reciprocates his love. Mitthu (Shabana Azmi) also thinks that he is in love with her and is happy since she has fallen in love with him too. Mitthu, though speech-impaired, writes poems. After Gherulal has gone, she starts spending time in the hills and writing poems. This is one of them.
