Mumbai continues to be vibrant,despite all its flaws.What do you think?
But imagine Mumbai without its ever so happening Film Industry.Don't you think Hindi film industry has given a charismatic look to the city of seven islands?
But I think the most significant contribution of Hindi Cinema is music. Especially the Golden Era
Hindi Film Music and the captivating stories and fables woven around the creation of those forever
songs.
You travel anywhere in the world and just initiate the talk on Hindi Film Music with the Indians you happen to meet for the first time. The strangers will become your long-lost friends, animated by the conversation on Hindi film songs. But, of course, you'd also have a heated exchange of thoughts and the difference of views as your favourite singer could be the great Mohammad Rafi and the other person's favourite the eccentric genius Kishore Kumar. Someone may adore Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle might be your all-time favourite. The argument would be never-ending and will continue to be so in all your meetings.
Nevertheless, you would have found a new friend in the stranger.
The Golden Era of Hindi Film Music binds people----together, for good, for forever happy moments. Isn't that what Nostalgia is all about?
Do write in your views.
