Obviously a
whole Lata passion went into the penning, composition and rendition of Ghar Aaya Mera Pardesi from Awaara. Shailendra wrote the lyrics, Shankar
Jaikishan were the music directors and Ms Mangeshkar was the singer.
After all, it
was the dream of Raj Kapoor, the man who brought these talented individuals
together, forming what would, over the next two decades, go on to become a team
that was both enduring and endearing.
Incidentally,
the song was the first dream sequence in an Indian film. Need it be said that
Kapoor was passion and foresight personified?
