This article is written by Sudhir, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music and a regular contributor to this blog.
People who love music, never grow up – that is my theory. The logic goes like this. A true music lover will never lose the capacity to be thrilled at hearing a new song, a new melody that is fun or poignant, and touches the heart. If a person does not have this characteristic, then it is difficult for that person to appreciate music. Now, being thrilled at something new is a hallmark characteristic of a child. Hence, people who have this capacity and love music, always have a child’s heart and mind within, and hence they never grow up. QED. 🙂

The challenge in their case is to try and accomodate them in the blog within the limitation that one can only discuss a few songs in a day.
