Mile Sur Mera Tumhara

Please find some time to watch the Mile Sur Mera Tumhara video that some of us grew-up with. Its music is brilliant, picturization top class and Bhimsen Joshi, BalamuraliKrishna and Lata Mangeshkar proves why they are all time greats. It was a very nostalgic experience going back in memory.


We had only one channel, DD-1, at that time (1988). This video was played on and on and the theme "music for national integration" kind of caught-up with this video. If you are 35+ and living in India, you can more or less recall the complete song and sing along.

Prakash Padukone, Hirwani, Arunlal, Big B, Jitendra, Kamal Hassan, Kirmani etc., look so young. Watched it several times. Could recognize only Hemamalini amongst the actress. More details on the video here.



I also liked the next one in the series based on Raag Desh (Baje Sargam), and you can find it here.





Thank you very
much,

RamP!
