A gem of a comedy song, from a film I do not know anything about. This song, apparently performed on the screen by two friends, looking for romance in life, and bemoaning the fact that there is possibly no love in this world without money.

By the time this riotous song comes to end, I am sure you will be ripping with laughter, at the fate of these two gentleman friends with a very lopsided view of what this world and this youth is all about.

The mention the word ‘qawwaali’ to a Hindi film buff, and 95 out of 100, the response will be the humming sounds of ‘Ye Ishq Ishq Hai Ishq Ishq. . .’. As a poetry form, qawwali originated in Persia and traveled to the subcontinent, during the emergence of the Sufi philosophers in the 12th and 13th centuries. In its original form, its intent is to sing the praises of Allaah, the Almighty, Prophet Muhammad, and other saints. The art was exclusively performed at places of religious worship and at dragaahs (mausoleums) of revered saints and teachers. The poetry is implicitly intended to be spiritual in its context, and its central themes are love, devotion and longing (of man for the Divine).
