Since music is so close to my heart, I am starting this new series from today.
A lot of songs have a related story/incident with them. So every time, I listen to that song, I can't help but remember that story (and then bore my husband by narrating the same incident again, which he claims he has already listened to 10 times :-)
so here's my first entry in this series:
When I went to study from Delhi to Varanasi, the course I was enrolled in had a very small batch(30 students in each year). And then each batch had very few girls. And being such a small batch,everyone kind of knew everything about fellow students(where they are from, where they did the graduation, which course etc)
So in my batch, there were only 4 girls, including me.
As a result, as you can expect, we used to get a lot of attention and "bhav" from the boys. I was good at my subjects too, so I used to help my classmates and juniors too. But apart from all these, I also used to take all sorts of "pangas" with my friends. See, till the time I was in my hometown, specially school going, I was the most sincere and punctual one in my family (or the "Gandhiji" as my sisters used to tease me)
But as soon as I came to college, and then to VNS, I had this sense of liberation, where I wanted to try every thing that is possible under the sky.
So, for a conservation place like VNS, my activities like going out to market at 8:30 in the evening or responding to the eve teasing remarks were considered very daring.
With all the studies, fun and lots of friends, 3 years just flew like whoooosh
And then came the farewell day, when the juniors threw us a big party.
they selected a title for each of their seniors and also played a song for each one of us.
So, the song they played for me was this and till date, I love this song sooooo much.
Whenever I hear this song, I still listen to it as if it is just for me :-)
Enjoy..
Dil se..

The song is kinda cute... aint it...
and since it has special memories attached... aah... !! lovely... !! :D :D
for us in college it was purani jeans... an anthem... but this individual song concept must be great...
Memories!
I agree with Hitchy! Love purani jeans.
Videos banned here at work...which song is it?
I somehow never liked Purani jeans...dunno. Guess it doesn't talk about the kind of fun I had. Well, its about the fun:D
@hitchwriter: Yes, I like the song more because of the memories associated with it.
@Solilo: "Purani jeans" : I liked the lyrics but somehow the song overall was not on my "fav" list.
@Meira: It is "Akeli na bazaar jaya karo" from Major Saab. Same with me for "Purani Jeans" :-)
Cute song and come to think of it, our Bollywood has a song for everything- going to the bazaar, april fool banaya, anything you can think of :)
Goodness I LOVE this song... brought back many memories! ;)
Cheers to Bollywood for providing us with all kinds of songs.
In my college, all songs of RD were very popular, though he had died by then.
@Sara: You are very right. And that's why I just love Bollywood music.
@Sayesha: Great. I love sonali and loved her in this song too.
@Aparna: Welcome to my blog. Yeah RDB is one of my fav too!!
