I had given up hopes of discussing any songs today seeing that I found myself internet deprived today.

Most people will agree that one Priya Rajwansh is more than enough for one movie. But Chetan Anand obviously did not think so. In “Hindustan Ki Kasam” (1973), she plays double role. In this movie, she plays two sisters separated at childhood (what an original idea ! 🙂 ). One girl ends up in India and grows up with Indian parents, whereas the other girl ends up in Pakistan and grows up with Pakistani parents.

We often read about real life following reel life and vice versa. I am not talking about movie actors playing roles based on some other real life people.
