I am aware of the film ‘Siskiyaan’ which was released in 2005 but did not know that a film with the same name was made some time in early 50s until I stumbled upon a beautiful song ‘tum bhi wohi ho main bhi wohi hoon’ on YT a few days back. I liked the song so much that I at once sat down to decipher the lyrics for posting on the blog. But on a second thought, I got a doubt about the singer of this song which the YT uploader has credited to Kishori Amonkar. As far as I know from the various sources of the websites, Kishori Amonkar’s first Hindi film song as a playback singer was “geet gaayaa pathharon ne” in 1964. Mogubai Kurdikar did not like her daughter to venture into playback singing career. As a result, Kishori Amonkar did not sing for any films until Drishti (1990) for which she was also the music director.
