A good post on the versatile Kishore Kumar.Formatting your post will make it nice.Kishore Kumar started his career same time around as Lata Mangeshkar.With the towering presence of Rafi and Mukesh in the 50's and 60's Kishore's voice remained unexplored by the composers.However,with the late 60's Ki read more...

Each Lata number was a gem from ‘Adalat’, vying for the attention of the listener. ‘Jaana Tha Hamse Door Bahaane Bana Liye, Ab Tumne Kitni Door’/ ‘Yoon Hasaraton Ke Daagh Mohabbat Mein Dho Liye’/ ‘Unko Yeh Shikayat Hai Ki Hum Kuchh Nahin Kahte’/ ‘Jaa Jaa Re Jaa Saajanaa, Jaa Jaa Re Jaa Saajanaa Kaah read more...
Chacha Chowdhury(1953) for a change had all the numbers by Asha Bhonsle. ‘Jaa Dekhee Teree Preet Re Meraa Loot Liyaa Sansaar’ is the mellow number from the movie by Asha.

No doubt your review belongs to VU category. In fact I have clicked on the U in mistake. Nonetheless I have made up my mistake through my comments which followed. It is nice to know you are from BBSR. with wishes vedabandhu
Excellent review on movies in recent times at MS. Look forward to more such enlightening reviews.
Thanks syd for the comment.Appreceating a good song has nothing to do with knowledge of Raags.Ranjish hi sahi has been a signature Ghazal of the Maestro.
