The most common milestone in this blog is century of songs in the blog. Then we also have some associated milestones viz centuries by artists, contributors etc.

After this blog touched the five figure mark of songs on 20 july 2014, some of the regulars began to point out some “special” numbers that the blog was approaching. Though not round figures like centuries, these numbers held arithmetic significance and we in the blog decided to associate these numbers with special writeups.

A voice, that is as soft and pleasing as cool breeze. And a singing that is most natural, with no efforts for any artificial embellishments to the rendition.  A voice that is not formally trained.

So this month sees a few greats celebrating their birthdays, one of them being Shabana Azmi- daughter of the very talented Shaukat Azmi and the poet with Communist leanings Kaifi Azmi. Basically a talent that was more into art films (a very Bollywood way of naming cinema that were seen only at film festivals and at the National Award ceremonies) but some one who couldn’t completely ignore the pulls from the commercial cinema (as Shashi Kapoor once said one genre kept his home fires burning and providing funds for the other genre). So we could see her winning awards for Paar, Arth Nishant etc and entertaining us in Parvarish, Fakira, Swarag Narag, Jwalamukhi etc, in my honest opinion she looked great in glamorous outfits as well as in Sarees.
