Aankh ladna is a Hindi idiom that means to fall in
love. Of course, its literal meaning, “To fight with the eyes”, makes
absolutely no sense.
It was used, to
great effect, by Shailendra, when he penned Zulmi
Sang Aankh Ladi, which can be translated to, “I fell in love with a tyrant.”
The track, from Madhumati, was four minutes and five
seconds long and was rendered by Lata Mangeshkar.
Given the
popularity of the melody, which was composed by Salil, it would be C(houdhu)r(uell)y
unfair to conclude that bullies are incapable of amorous advances.
