Compliant (R)aficionados gave their dils

Although Women’s Day is six months away, I see no reason why we can’t celebrate it on this blog today.

After all, this morning, the realisation dawned on me that a majority of the tracks I would be writing about today have been composed by ladies.

Majrooh Sultanpuri penned the title track of Dil Deke Dekho, which released in 1959 and marked Usha Khanna’s debut as composer.

The song, which was rendered by Mohammed Rafi and picturised on Shammi Kapoor, was catchy. The former needn’t have asked Hindi film music buffs to give their hearts.
