Garden Of Five Senses: Meri Saanson Ko

While looking for songs featuring the five senses, I realized that the reference to sight, hearing and touch is more direct in most of the songs, while the reference to smell could be subtle. Songs mentioning food and drink could be included in the taste category, and these are generally light-hearted and sometimes funny. Hopefully, we will get a set of songs depicting a variety of moods in this series.

Today's presentation is a melodious duet from "Badaltey Rishtey" (1978). Starring Jeetendra, Rishi Kapoor and Reena Roy, this was a musical that did fairly well. Enjoy this classic Laxmikant Pyarelal composition. When you look at Reena Roy on the screen, you can't miss noticing the resemblance between her and Sonakshi Sinha.

Singers: Lata Mangeshkar, Mahendra Kapoor
Lyrics: Anjaan
Music: Laxmikant Pyarelal
