With
the last week beginning with Asha Bhosle’s birthday, for last few days I
showcased only RD-Asha combination. To round up the working days of
this week, heere is another song - not so rare, yet a path-breaking one
for both of them.
Picturised on Bindu, this was the first ever
cabaret sung by Asha Bhosle. The situation demanded, unlike a normal
cabaret, a constant much closer view of the performer on-screen, while
singing. On the other hand, the song does not have a base metre at all,
rather more of a conversation directed at the heroine of the movie
interspersed with jazz kind of interludes, which makes it more difficult
for lip-syncing. That the singer & composer have been able to pull
it off with such ease is what makes Asha-RD combination so endearing
and so refreshing.
The irony is, yet again, the other songs
from the movie turned out to be so popular that this one lagged behind
always. That does not take away the brilliance of the composition &
singing though. Judge yourself:
