Yet they would invariably be attached to the director, as if he owned the movie.

It is a good comparison, and I in fact feel that the likelihood of coming up with musical diamonds in the metaphorical musical coal mine is far more, seeing how many of them I discover on a regular basis.

With this post I am requesting Atul ji to add a new and peculiar category to this blog. This is a song sung on a ‘thhelaa’; and as far as I can recall, this is the only ‘thhelaa’ song in Hindi movies.
