Yesterday this blog reached 5000 songs. Today is 14th november, which is celebrated as the children’s day in India. The day is over and it is night time, and not a single song has been discussed on this occasion !
No, I have neither run out of steam nor I have forgotten about this day. In fact I ensured that the 5000 th song was discussed one day advance so as to keep 14th november free for children’s songs. It is just that I was neglecting several important tasks which I completed in the day time. Now I have time to discuss songs for today. It may be too late for the real children, but those who are young at heart (which includes lots of readers of this blog), the day is not yet over. So I will try and discuss a few songs on the occasion as long as it is still 14th november in India. so I still have more than four hours at my disposal. 🙂

In the previous qawwaali I had posted (Poochho Na Hamen Ishq Mein Kyaa Kyaa Nazar Aayaa), we saw Dara Singh and Mumtaz enjoying the qawwaali being performed by Jagdeep, Mohan Choti, and Shakila Banu Bhopali. So how about Dara Singh actually performing a qawwaali. No, not impossible, if that is the first thought that came to your mind. This qawwaali is co-presented on screen by Dara Singh, along with Maruti and a host of junior artists.
