The Rains Songs....Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein

As I had said in one of my earlier posts rarely has any leading actor escaped dancing in the rain in a Bollywood movie. So how could the then superstar (or India's first Superstar I should say) be an exception. With the sensuous Zeenat Aman for company (in the movie ofcourse) ...there's every possible to reason to think out loud "kaisa lagta hai" about getting drenched in the rain.

With Kishore Kumar in his elements and Lata Manageshkar for company you have all the more reason to try for yourself how it feels to get wet in the rains. The talented RD Burman sets the mood just right for make you feel mischievous.


The Rain Songs....Sawan Barse Tarse Dil

The only reason one may remember the movie Dahek (starring Akshay Khanna and Sonali Bendre) is for the song Sawan Barse Tarse Dil. Chances are you may not even remember the movie but the song has stayed on with you and you might as well be humming it as and when you remember it or hear it play.

Hariharan and Sadhna Sargam capture the impatient wait of two love struck souls in the crazy rains (you have to be a Mumbaikar to  know how crazy rains are) of Mumbai who just can't wait to get out of their homes.
