Someone once asked water, “Water, water, what color is yours?” The answer water gave was, “My color will resemble whatever I am mixed with.” This isn’t a quality, a skill, an art, or anything significant. It’s the very nature of water, a gift from God, bestowed upon water.

Today’s song is from the film Veer Ghatotkach (aka Surekha Haran)-1949. The meaning of Ghatotkach is a person with a bald head.
The film was made by Homi Wadia’s Basant Pictures and it was directed by Nanabhai Bhatt, a veteran in directing such films. Music was by S.N.Tripathi, who, as usual, also acted in this film.
