When a small kid has to be put to sleep, the mother sings him/her a soothing lullaby. It is not just that only small kids appreciate lullabies. Grownups are just as receptive to them. So I see no reason why a female should not sing lullabies to her husband/lover in case he too is required to be put to sleep.

Minerva Movietone is the renowned flagship company that was launched and nurtured by the great Sohrab Modi. He has given such powerful historical epics to the Indian cinema as Pukar, Sikandar, Prithvi Vallabh, Jhansi Ki Rani, and many other great creations like Mirza Ghalib, Nausehrvan-e-Adil, Kundan, Jailor and Raaj Hatth. His films carry a message of strong commitment to social and national issues. A whole generation’s image of Indian history and Indian society is based on his films. Not all of his movies were commercial successes, but each of them has an indelible imprint of Sohrab Modi’s uncompromising quality and classic cinema.
