This Beautiful composition is based on Raag Khamaj. In this song, both legendary sisters Lata ji and Asha ji are at their best with an ease. When they sing together, they try to bring their best out in the rendition. All the 'taans' in their melodious voices are rendered perfectly. Meena Kumari's great acting compliments the song. Song 177: Sakhi Ri Sun Bole Papiha Us Paar Singer: Lata Mangeshkar Film: Miss Mary (1957) Music Director: Hemant Kumar Lyricist: Rajendra Krishan My most revered singer, Lata Mangeshkar, passed away in February and the voice of the nation went silent forever. She was a monumental figure who united people from all over the country through her music. I feel fortunate to have grown up in the Lata era. Here is my ‘Shraddhanjali’ to her—a humble attempt to share rare or less-heard songs from 1950s and 1960s. Her beautifully expressive voice, the precision with which she hits each note, and her pronunciations make these songs master pieces. Everyday a different song will be added to the Latanjali playlist on this channel. Please subscribe to listen to these gems.
