Dear Mr Ashok Mehta–refer post #20-please do not ever feel embarassed in talking about old hindi film songs–in fact the decades 50′s and 60′s were the golden era in indian film music. Though purists would always consider classical music as the best from of music, if you go by popular perception, the music of 50′s and 60′s were in no way inferior.
And we had the golden voices of Rafi, Kishore, Mukesh, Talat, Manna Dey, Lata , Geeta, Suman, Asha etc….music maestros like Naushad, S-J,Roshan, Madan Mohan, SDB, Hemant Kumar, K-A, L-P, RDB etc…..,sheer poetry from Lyricists like Shakeel, Sahir, Majrooh, Shailendra , Kaifi, Rajendra Kishen, Hasrat, etc..
