If Nargis was “Mother India”, then who was “Miss India” ? This is my favourite quiz to movie lovers. And incidentally both these movies were released in the same year viz 1957.

I have posted a few songs from “Shrimatiji” (1952). The music of this song sounds far far ahead of its time. This movie had songs of several genres that were non-existent/ un heard of those days.
