In 1950s, it was difficult to imagine a music director making his mark without using the voice of Lata. But there were two music directors who achieved this seemingly impossible feat.

I know that “Anubhav” was an art movie ( as off beat small budget movies were called those days) and I was aware that it has one nice song by Manna Dey, viz “hansne ki chaah ne kitna mujhe rulaaya hai”. I have posted this song in the blog sometime back.

Meena Kumari is typecast in many people’s mind as a tragedy queen, but there were days when she used to play happy bubbly roles. For instance, I have watched her in “Miss Mary” and how cute and pretty she looks in that movie playing a normal female possessing a sense of humour. How dearly I would love to see her in similar roles.

This is one song that I just loved to listen to, when I paid attention to its lyrics. The lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni captures the feelings of a newly married typical India woman of those days beautifully. The words in the lyrics are so cute and realistic, and they are the kind of words that are used in rural areas of UP.

What does one do when one wants to sleep but the sleep would not come ? Count sheep ? That does not work with kids. Ask them to finish their home work? It may work, but long term outcome may lead to more sleeplessness. And what about small kids, who have not yet begun going to school, or who in fact have yet to even talk ?
Small kids who can understand talk can be told bedtime stories, but the smallest kids know only one way to go to sleep- viz lori. If moms are into Bollywood music, then they have quite a few immortal lories to choose from.
