Hindi film
writers and directors have always (Far)had
a soft spot for Shirin Farhad, the pair of star-crossed loversS(hir)in Persian folklore.
Guzra Hua Zamaana, rendered by Mangeshkar, was indeed the
most popular song on the soundtrack of the 1956 adaptation of the (La)tale.
WheN(a)qvizzed
about the man who penned the track, only a true lover of Hindi film music would
say his name (Tanvir).
And it was
composed by S Mohinder, whose Sarname was Sarna.
When Naqvi (Laho)relocated
to Pakistan and Mohinder emigrated to the United States, all one could say was,
“Hafiz khuda tumhara”.
