On the birth anniversary of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, here’s a very sweet melody from the 1991 Hindi drama Lekin ( = But..) based on his work titled Kshudhit Pashaan. Sung by Lata Mangeshkar, Music composed by Hridaynath Mangeshkar (younger brother to Lata Mangeshkar) and Lyrics penned by Gulzar. This happens to be one of my favorite movies and songs too.
