After a long gap, I am back with another song which is a permanent member of my playlist. This song comes from a not very well known movie released in 2002, ‘Kya yehi pyar hai‘ starring Aftab Shivdasani, Amisha Patel, Jackie Shroff and others. If you look at its IMDb ratings (don’t even bother), youContinue reading “Is this love…”

The promise of love
This one is a song from the famous movie ‘Sooryavansham‘. Why famous? Coz Sony Max broadcasts it almost every other day in India. Set Max’s obsession with ‘Sooryavansham’ has made it the subject of a lot of memes. Is it a really good movie though? I would rather not comment on that. In case youContinue reading “The promise of love”
If I do not get you…
Sorry for this long hiatus in my song updates. Thanks to the delay in writing this whole month, I will have to post five songs within the few next days (or as soon as possible). It took me some time to find a song fit enough to translate and one which has not been translatedContinue reading “If I do not get you…”
How she fell in love…
Have you ever dreamed of falling endlessly from a cliff or from the top of a building? If yes, then you might remember how this fall tugged strongly at your heart and you would suddenly wake up in the middle of the night feeling disoriented and horrified. That something from our unconscious could affect ourContinue reading “How she fell in love…”
How to move on after break-ups?
Let’s look at this in terms of life, not in terms of trend or morality, but in terms of life. When I say that, you need to understand that your body contains a lot of memory on various levels. And you need to understand that every day you are imbibing so much memory. Within thisContinue reading “How to move on after break-ups?”
Love forever…
This week is a big leap from the black and white songs of 1960s-70s to this song from an unreleased movie of 2003 ‘Ek Hindustani‘ starring Sunil Shetty and Raveena Tandon. I am not a big fan of Sunil Shetty’s looks and acting, but Raveena was my favourite once long back (seems like ages now).Continue reading “Love forever…”
Life without you…
This time I am going to talk about a timeless classic from Mukesh Sahab who is one of my favourite singers (yet another), starring Manoj Kumar aka Bharat Kumar and Saadhna from the movie ‘Anita‘ released in 1967. Manoj Kumar is as handsome as ever and Saadhna is as elusive as ever. There was aContinue reading “Life without you…”
Down the memory lane…
This second week is dedicated to another very old song from the movie ‘Hamraahi‘ released in 1963. I have to say that the movie has a lot of beautiful songs and almost all of them are quite popular and must have been so at that time as well. The songs of this movie have aContinue reading “Down the memory lane…”
Love: Then and now…
Since I made a promise to translate one song per week, here I am with the first song for the year. I have to say, there’s hardly just one webpage with the lyrics of this song in Hindi and that too wrong in many places. Now I have to say the movie is not veryContinue reading “Love: Then and now…”
52 weeks, 52 songs
‘Premi, pagal, deewana; ashiq, majnoo, awara…’ The first words, I have been told, that ever came out of my mouth were the lyrics to this song from the Bollywood movie ‘Phool aur Kaante‘ (Flowers and thorns) which was released in 1991 starring Ajay Devgan and Madhoo. Ajay Devgan’s debut was released the same year thatContinue reading “52 weeks, 52 songs”
