if i had to select a song  that best expresses my love story, then it wud be….”chalte chalte” frm pakeezah.

There is something huanting abt the song.

Meena Kumari one of the most beautiful and finest actors of india, gave probably the best performance of her life.

Effect- Awesome!!!! 

Chalte chalte, chalte chalte
Yunhi koi mil gaya tha 
Sare raah chalte chalte 
Vahin thamke reh gayi hai 
Meri raat dhalte dhalte 
Jo kahi gayi na mujhse
Voh zamaana keh raha hai 
Ke fasaana
Ke fasaana ban gayi hai 
Meri baat chalte chalte 
Yunhi koi mil gaya tha 
Sare raah chalte chalte 
Yunhi koi mil gaya tha
Sare raah chalte chalte
Chalte chalte
Sare raah chalte chalte
Chalte chalte
Chalte chalte, chalte chalte
Yunhi koi mil gaya tha 
Shabe intezaar aakhir 
Kabhi hogi muqtasar bhi 
Yeh chiraag
Yeh chiraag bujh rahe hain 
Mere saath jalte jalte 
Yeh chiraag bujh rahe hain
Yeh chiraag bujh rahe hain 
Mere saath jalte jalte 
Yunhi koi mil gaya tha 
Sare raah chalte chalte  
I donno which lines to leave out. Each lines tells its own story.
Those who know me wud agree with my choice of song.
 
But the similarities end. It ends where Ashi refused to take a stand  and bowed to his parents wishes. His parents who refused to accept me coz i come frm a broken family. And also becoz I am a bong.
Sad n pathetic. His Mom decreed tht he was to marry someone frm his own community, a UP gurl to be more precise.
I always thought tht ppl in mumbai are much more liberal n broad minded. But alas!!! A mis conception.Its incredible how such highly educated ppl are still stuck in the old mind set .
i mean rejection not becoz i am frm a diff religion or caste but coz i am a bong!!!
how stupid can it get??????????
Anyways u ppl enjoi the music....
I must be out of my mind tht i still am so much in love with Ashi.
