These days I am posting songs from “Pooja Ke Phool” (1964). I have noticed that this movie has some wonderful songs in it. So far I have posted two songs from this movie which were sung by Lata. These songs are easily among the best songs that the Lata-Madan Mohan combination gave us in their long association.

While posting a song of “Sati Savitri” (1964) I had remarked that there are certain value system (Sanskaar) that are difficult for westerners to comprehend. In the Indian value system, woman may be described as ardhaangini (better half) of her husband, but paradoxically, she is required to treat her husband as her God and a superior being, and she is required to regard herself an inferior being.
