Most of the song farmaishes that I get are in the blog, but sometimes I also get farmaishes for songs in my email inbox. Yesterday I received an e mail from Jeetendra Mistry, who requested me to discuss a song called ” Saawan aayaa baadal aaya ” from “Jaan Haazir Hai” (1975). He mentioned that this song, which is picturised on Urmila Bhatt, is a rare song which he is unable to find.
