Today (14 november 2014) is Jawaharlal Nehru’s birthday. He was very fond of Children and so his birthday began to be celebrated as “Bal Divas” or Children’s day in India. It is clear that this day became “Children’s day” in India only after Indian Independence. I am not aware when this day was first celebrated this way. I request our senior regulars to throw light on this matter.

At first I thought I will do the usual of finding an Amitabh- Rekha song as their birthdates are 10th and 11th October. Then on going through “the list of songs movie wise” and comparing it with the list on MYSWAR.com I realized that the song sung by Rekha in her own voice is still to be posted.
