I can watch songs of a movie any number of times. On the other hand, I find watching the same movie a waste of my time. Perhaps I have become “mature” with time. As a sign of this “maturity”,I would rather spend three hours trying to get the lyrics of a song right than watch the movie containing this song which may take less time.:D

I have posted two memorable songs from “Shart” (1954) in the past namely Na ye chaand hogaa na taare rahenge (Shart) and Dekho wo chaand chhupke kartaa hai kyaa ishaare (Shart) .

Ganesh was one music director who got very few opportunities as a music director, and he made the most of these opportunities. But much to his, and our misfortune, many of his songs were forgotten, since the movies were flops. These songs, though very fine songs on their own,are very difficult to come by these days.
