Tum Nahi Ho Kaheen

This is my third composition. And it took me ages to come out with it, however that doesn't promise it to be good, but do have a listen and leave your suggestions.

Bear with the audio quality. It took me three hours to actually put it on the youtube and the version which I finally managed to put up was not the one which I thought was best. Nonetheless, couldn't be bothered about changing the recording. My bare IT skills discourage me to do so.

The doomed diva

Are there any guesses who penned these lines? I am sure very few of us would rightfully identify this poetess-in-oblivion who wrote many such verses and couplets as a personal way of registering, recording and dealing with her grief-stricken short life of forty odd years. She was born on 1st August 1932 in Mumbai to Ali Baksh and Iqbal Begum (renamed from Prabhawati Devi). Her father was an actor in Parsi theatre and also dabbled in Urdu poetry and occasionally gave music direction in Hindi movies. This girl, Mahjabeen Bano, was the youngest of her siblings and in the family mired in financial hardships she was literally forced to work in films. Her career st...

Selfie Point: A Conversation

Aji dekhiye na, ee humra supreme leader ka itna bada photo kaahe laga hai har jagah par? Abhi toh election ka date bhi nahi aaya hai aur lagta hai ki resultwo announce ho gaya.

Haan wo toh theek hai, lekin Gita ka ee sab se kya lena dena? Lena dena hai. Iska matlab hai chitra mein bandh kar khud bhi vichitra ho jana. Phir Gita mein toh ye bhi likha hai ki insaan na kuch lekar aata hai na lekar jaata hai. Lekin Saheb toh hamesha jhola jhola bolte rehte hain. Kahte hain, jhola uthayenge aur furr ho jayenge. Kabhi socha hain aapne ki kiska jhola lekar wo chal denge aur usmein konchi konchi rakha hoga?
