Although Indians
have always been as passionate about cricket as they’ve been about Hindi films,
the sport hasn’t got its due on screen often. And even less so in soundtracks.
However, there
was one song that combined our twin loves – She
ne khela he se aaj cricket match from Love
Marriage.
The next line of
the track, rendered by Mohammed Rafi, went, “Ek nazar mein dil bechara ho gaya LBW.”
It was penned by
Hasrat Jaipuri, composed by Shankar Jaikishan, and was paradoxical, because the
maiden didn’t bowl the protagonist over, and yet she did.
