If you are in an introspective mood, then there is nothing like a song sung by Pradeep. Pradeep, who wrote his songs with feeling, sung his songs with feeling too whenever he was called upon to sing songs. I have posted many immortal songs written and sung by Pradeep in this blog.

I have posted over 100 songs composed by Madan Mohan in this blog. It means that over 10 % of all Madan Mohan songs have been included in this blog.
