umm, 2002 is not that old.
and one scene i particularly remember from that film's trailers is sohail khan jumping onto the roof of a van and the glass of the van exploding.
yeah, shirely setia has talent, style, is pretty and is so sweet ( i love her expressions )... she is the most famous desi singer on youtube i think... i know of her since about six or eight months i think... lately, she seems to have become well-known in bollywood.
in that medley part where she sings "aati kya khandala" i liked it that she replicated rani's laugh.
she sang "manmarziyan" from "lootera" so beautifully :
Manmarziyan - Lootera (Shilpa Rao) | Cover by Shirley Setia - YouTube
and one of her favorite songs is "sun zara" from the sallu film "lucky"... she has uploaded the adnan sami live version and it is superb :
Sun Zara by Adnan Sami - YouTube
adnan's version is better than sonu's original, though the original has very nice visuals and mood :
Sun Zara (Full Song) | Lucky | Salmaan Khan | Sneha Ullal - YouTube
adnan was the music composer for "lucky".
the film and the songs had nice visuals... look at this song "jaan meri ja rahi sanam" :
Aake Bharlo Bajuo Mein (Full Song) | Lucky - No Time For Love - YouTube
and back to shirley, you should watch her "shirley speaks" q&a series... and this is a small list of her songs i have liked :
"tu hai ki nahi" :
Tu Hai Ki Nahi - Roy | Female Cover by Shirley Setia ft. Ankit Narotam - YouTube
"ishq wala love", a duet and with a talent guitar player :
Ishq Wala Love (Cover) - Kanik, Shirley & Nihar - YouTube
"kamli" :
Kamli - Dhoom 3 (Sunidhi Chauhan) | Cover by Shirley Setia ft. The Gunsmith - YouTube
maybe one needs to develop a taste for this kind of classical music but to me it sounded like they were having a family quarrel.
and those rappers ( ?? ) you listed, i generally am unable to understand the fast lyrics of rap... and yes, one needs to eat "pani puri" sometimes to understand biryani.
tina sani's voice and singing style, which is nice, reminds me of peenaz masani, the indian mostly-ghazals singer... though i don't think this particular song should have been sung that way.
but ahmed jahanzeb sung it so beautifully with the music being superb... it really presented the song's feelings to the full... it is the male counterpart to chaya ganguly's presentation in the film "gaman" ( the song i posted ).
i listened to his song four times last night, the late hours so much suited to the mood of the song.

that she does... one of the few parsi actresses in indian cinema and tv... search for these others : jennifer kotwal, shehnaz treasurywala, parizad kolah marshall.
and the other famous song from the film was "tose naina laage piya saanwari" :
Anwar - Tose Naina Lage Piya Saanware Nahin Bas Mein - Kshitij Tarey - Shilpa Rao - YouTube
beautiful in lyrics, music, singing and the visuals of this particular vid... outstanding.
"teri do takiya di naukri me mera laakhon ka saawan jaaye".
zeenat aman on that swing reminds me of the nice song "saawan ke jhoole pade"... such a peaceful song :
SAAWAN KE JHOOLE PADE -COMPLETE SONG- LATA -ANAND BAKSHI -R D BURMAN (JURMANA 1979) - YouTube
levina and others ^^^
and "bhor bhaye panghat pe" is a great song... i like its music too... its composer duo, laxmikant-pyarelal, have given some superb music and i will make a list of them in my next post.
thanks for the info.
i liked the echoey style of the singing and i think laila's head jewellery looks authentic.
and from "laila majnoon" i was reminded of the hindi film "heer ranjha" and from it the one and only raaj kumar sahab whose one song i like a lot - "har taraf ab yahi afsaane hain" :
HAR TARAF AB YAHI AFSANE HAIN ORIGINAL song by MANNA DE for RAAJ KUMAR - YouTube
levina and others ^^^
i think the song's flamboyance and raaj kumar's flamboyance rather suits me.
by the way, the song's film "hindustan ki kasam" is a india-pakistan spy story with the heroine, priya rajvansh, playing a pakistani agent.
a melodious song.
and the heroine's easy smile reminded me of madhubala and amita.
and the setting in the song seems a relaxed version of mehwish hayat's "billi".
and speaking of amita, i like her and shammi kapoor in "sar par topi laal haath me resham ka roomal" :
Sar pe topi lal..Rafi_AshaBhosle_Majrooh_O P Nayyar_Tumsa nahi dekha..a tribute - YouTube
i find amita very pretty... below is another song, "aayen hain doorse", from the same film, "tumsa nahi dekha", that portrays her beauty more closely :
Aaye Hai Doorse - Mohammed Rafi, Asha Bhosle, Tumsa Nahin Dekha Song - YouTube
given a few days or months i am sure it will.
song suits the visuals... aishwarya is lovely as ever... i also like "hai mera dil" from the same film :
Hai Mera Dil (Josh) - YouTube
thanks for the info... i see/hear the similarity.

i have a suggestion for all... let us not embed vids but copy their url's but without the "http" part... this will leave only the url in the post and will make the pages load faster and not cause some machines to hang.
with this i bid you goodnight.
