The glorious 70s: waiting for Hrishikesh Mukherjee

Hrishida says hi. He is sorry he cant make it in time for today. He's stuck in Bombay for some last minute work on his film, but you're not to worry about getting bored. He is sending his two best singers along - young men who specialise in Hindustani classical. Their jugalbandi has been known to put people in a trance of musical ecstasy, and their singing would put Pandit Jasraj and Bhimsen Joshi to flight. Here they are, now.




Whats that you just said? This is no classical music concert, its just Amitabh-Dharmendra lip-syncing to Rafi-Kishore?! Heavens!!! Flex your suspension-of-disbelief muscles, people. Take a deep breath and tell yourself that you are listening to a classical recital not filmi music. Still not getting on board? Well, you have till Hrishida's arrival tomorrow, to work on your suspension of disbelief. See you when he comes, tomorrow. Till then, Khuda haafiz...
