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: Saawan Ki Ghataon

As we celebrate our Independence Day today, I present a forgotten rain song from a vintage film that was released around the time India became a free nation. "Aage Badho" (1947)--the title is quite symbolic too--was Dev Anand's second film. The leading lady is Khursheed, who was also a noted playback singer and sang her own songs in the film. She migrated to Pakistan after the partition.

Singers: Khursheed, Mohammad Rafi
Lyrics: Pandit Indra
Music: Sudhir Phadke
