Sona sona roop hai, humko guroor hai, lut jaaogay tum, haaye rubba.

If you know these lyrics, we can be friends.

(Don’t take me seriously, it hasn’t even been a week since I first heard that song.)

(I’m too sleepy, good night.)

(aankh dikhaayegi, dhoom machaayegi, shaamat aai hai – javaani aai hai, qayamat aai hai...)

Good night for sure now.

And good night to @Lisaraniray too, whose book I am enjoying and whose spirited prose led me to this particular song, amongst others.

This song is from Bollywood/Hollywood, which also had the evergreen (pun!) ‘Rang Rang’.

The video of this one is really fun, Lisa Ray and Rahul Khanna (mmm) in red on a rooftop:

It was also recreated very sweetly as one of the Sangeet numbers in @4moreshotspls!

Hoton pay hai ek pukaar, dil mein hai dard-e-izhaar!

(Think I’m going to keep adding to this thread, with maybe some comments on @Lisaraniray’s book, Close to the Bone, as well.)

(I also just really enjoy both these songs.)
