Thanks to cyclone ‘Nilam’ whole of Tamil Nadu, parts of Andhra & many parts of Karnataka are having rains for the past few days. And Bangalore has gone cold. So we are experiencing fantastic romantic (in my husband’s words) climate. Baarish bhi sardi bhi!!! Ab in such a situation I read this post by Atul and thought wow! He has posted “Rama Rama“from “Naya Zamaana” so we can have one more “rain” song. Then I saw that we have a song from “Dus Lakh” soon thereafter so I thought we really need another romantic song to celebrate the weather. So here it is from “Maan Gaye Ustaad” starring Shashi kapoor Hema Malini Pran & wonder of wonders Amjad Khan playing Hema’s long lost brother. Imagine this relationship if you remember “Sholay” & “Jab Tak Hai Jaan” (mind it I am here talking of the Sholay song not Yash Chopra’s next movie’s title, God let him rest in peace).
