Kishore showed his (Gan)g(u)l(y)um side

Wasn’t it ironic that a 1956 film was titled Funtoosh, and the mood its most popular track captured was anything but the word the first three letters of that word spelled?

Not really, because the singer was none other than the versatile Kishore Kumar, who (Gan)g(u)l(adl)y rendered a bouquet of sad songs.

And the song in question was Dukhi Mann Mere.

It was penned by Sahir. Since it continues to be popular, it won’t be a surprise if people paraphrase the McDonald’s tagline and exclaim, “We’re Lu(dhian)vin’ it!”

S D Burman was the music director.
