Yesterday I was unable to discuss songs because I was out of town. In these days of connectivity, I should have been able to have access to internet from most places. But that is easier said than done. The kind of connectivity that is needed for this blog and which I take for granted is a luxury that is not available in many places that I sometimes have to visit. As a result, I was unable to even access this blog, or for that matter internet itself. I am back after 24 hours, but it feels like I have been away for a lifetime. 🙂

This song is a wonderful fun song from the film Khel (1950). And a fitting finale, too. Of the nine songs in this film, eight are already posted here on this blog. This is the ninth song that is rare and obscure, so much so that it has not been posted on the internet yet. In the write up for the eighth song of this film published on this blog “Kahe Mujhse Jawaani Mere Dil Ki Kahaani” , Atul ji has mentioned that the one last song is yet to be discovered. That was almost two weeks ago. On searching through my collection, I am now able to locate this song; and it is now posted on YouTube.
