Mrs DutT(han)did a great job

Sadly, Geeta Dutt’s association with O P Nayyar lasted only a few years. But they seemed to have developed an undersT(h)anding.

Given that the composer was always called a stubborn man, that must have been quite a feat. 

Nevertheless, it resulted in quite a few gems. One of these was Thandi Hawa Kaali Ghata, the solo from Mr. & Mrs. ’55.

If one were to draw up a list of the ten best songs of the pair, it would be unfair if this song, which was penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri, failed to make the cut.
