Some ages ago when I was still in college and shared a room with Ankush i.e. Mullad aka hamaare hone waale bhateeje ka baap(ya maa :P :)), I was in love with this particular song called Chandni Ratein. I still am, though to a lesser extent. I kept on playing the song on his comp and kept on agonizing him. He was tired of it, once even removed it but somehow I got it back. Recently while visiting a blog, I found this song again. I never knew that this song was a remix version of an old song, done by Bally Sagoo. And and and ....believe it or not, as I write these lines it is playing on my desktop (it's not intentional, it's there in the playlist...funny that it should start playing as I write this post). Here is the original song, sung by the great Noor Jahan herself.
Speaking of Noor Jahan, I am reminded of a story that when she was about to leave for Pakistan, Dileep Kumar tried to persuade her for the whole night to stay in India but in vain. It was after her departure only that Lata Mangeshkar rose to heights that are virtually unscalable now. Here is the Wikipedia link on the Mallika-e-Tarranum.
Two other such songs which forced my sister and my friends to bang their heads against the walls are this and this. Hope you enjoy them both :).
P.S. I came across this song here.
