Desaidedly, this song is immor(La)tal

Even if my collection of music is of a single genre (i e Hindi film music), it is eclectic enough to include a prayer [Aye Malik Tere Bande Hum from Do Aankhen Barah Haath (1957)]. But I didn’t know that I’d start my day with a post on it.

The female version of the song continues to be popular. And the credit for that definitely goes to Lata Mangeshkar, whose rendition took devotion to another level.

But, of course, it must be given to the two Vs – lyricist Bharat Vyas and composer Vasant Desai – too.
