Ras Siddiqui!

I have Sohni Dharti as the top patriotic song being sung.

What a beautiful voice was Shahnaz Begum.

Ras:

Thanks for this trip down memory lane.

Shahnaz Begum lives in the heart of music lovers in the sub continent. This reportage rekindled her haunting renditions of:

Baat niklay gi tou
Sawan aaya tum nahiN aaye
Pawan devani
mujhay tum naz`r say
and
sohni dharti

among other songs and ghazals.


Thanks, once again.

regards,

temporal

PS: Since you are still in touch with them can you help me trace the whereabouts of Sadia Afroze Ali?
