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: Ang Lag Ja Balma

"Mera Naam Joker" (1970) was Raj Kapoor's ambitious project, but it flopped at the box office. It did get praised in the later years, though. This film was unusually long (255 minutes) and that made it necessary for it to have two intervals. Before this, another Raj Kapoor production, "Sangam" (1964) had a running time of 238 minutes with two intervals. Today's song is from "Mera Naam Joker".

Singer: Asha Bhosle
Lyrics: Shailendra
Music: Shankar Jaikishan
