Have a story to tell? A theme to work on? An emotion to express? A mood to paint? Easy. You can do all this and more with Hindi film songs. For musical stories or theme-based songs or lyrical expressions of moods or...whatever, this promises to be a fun-filled ride. Come, get on the bandwagon!

Rain Songs: Aaya Saawan Jhoom Ke

Here is another saawan song: a catchy duet from "Aaya Saawan Jhoom Ke" (1969). It was very common for the hero or the  leading lady in films of that time to join a group of dancers/be dragged by a bunch of village folks to dance in some festival. And what is surprising is that we, as viewers found it perfectly normal that they--as outsiders-- not only started dancing with them, but became expert lead dancers without any rehearsals or prior notice. Well, I guess, that was the magic of the large screen and the larger than life images of our favourite stars in an era of no television and no youtube videos.

Well, enjoy this song!

Singers: Lata Mangeshkar, Mohammad Rafi
Lyrics: Anand Bakshi
Music: Laxmikant Pyarelal
