Nice pic!

This should actually go as a comment to your post titled “one hundred and sixteen moonlit nights”.
Read this in the Hindustan Times today, and was reminded of your post.

Lyricist Gulzar has pointed to a strange coincidence in a new anthology of songs, Qatrah Qatrah, which comprises lyrics written by him for composer RD Burman.

Says the poet-lyricist: “In one of Pancham’s (as the composer was known) most beloved songs, Mera kuch saamaan tumhare paas pada hai in the movie Ijaazat, I had written ek sau solah chaand ki raatein, ek tumhaare kaandhe ka til. Those 116 moonlit nights that I wrote about proved prophetic.

“When these two anthologists Vishwas Nerurkar and Biswanath Chatterjee got together to prepare this anthology Qatrah Qatrah for Sangeet Kala Kendra, they realised that exactly 116 of my songs were set to music by Pancham. I unconsciously wrote about it in the song,” the lyricist recalled.

Indian classical literature incidentally lists 116 phases of the moon.

Me getting old, me tell you. I scrolled down and saw a post about the Red Sox winning. I remembered reading that post the last time I was here. And interestingly, I find I have left a comment at that post too. So, that means, I probably knew you were in the Boston area too. Or I had known then and had forgotten since. I AM getting old, I tell you…. unbelievable!!

Its still cold and freezing here in Boston. Not yet time for such awesome blossoms in February, no?

Btw, I had no idea you were in the Boston area, Megha. I may have left a comment or two over the years but let it be said again — I am yet to find another blog online that has had me laughing and almost in splits, like your blog. The Great Bong comes a distant second. Like a Charlie Chaplin movie, your blog amuses me every time – no matter what the mood.

That said, I do not get to your blog often enough. I wish I did.

I better stop here before you get creeped out with my fawning… :)

I did a Google search for “aake teri baahon mein — Vansh” and this blog was one of the links that came up. Looked around a bit; it’s entertaining. Only one thing to say: there’s no way you’re single. In real life I mean; I saw all that Viktor and Bhuvan spiel. Keep up the good work. God bless you.
