This is a soulful song from film Dil-E-Nadaan-1953,sung by Asha Bhosle,very effectively.
I know I have not been doing justice to Asha’s songs, for a long time now. It’s not that I dont like them, but somehow these songs almost never made it to my writings. Some of the solo songs of Asha, both Filmi and Non filmi are, in my opinion, any day better sung than Lata Mangeshkar !
