Here is one song from “Thhodi si bewafaai”. The hopes, aspirations, egos etc of a couple have been described so beautifully that one cannot but help admire Gulzar’s penmanship. What amazingly great lyrics he could conjure up ! And he had a very good understanding with his music directors. No doubt, Gulzar and Khayyam came up with some soul stirring numbers in this movie.
