Song 22:
The club crooner too dreamt of peaceful moments of bliss with her man. Her job entailed entertaining a bunch of beer guzzling, boisterous, burping men every night. Did she truly enjoy it? Naah! All she wanted was to be with that one special man who had left an impact on her. She wanted to be somewhere far away, on a gondola in Venice maybe, singing songs of love and passion. Songs that spelt the magic of mysterious, mystifying love. She wanted to be serenaded in serenity. She wanted to coo sweet nothings into his ears. She wanted to be held captive by his smouldering gaze. They were not the first couple in the world, and they would not be the last. But songs like these, as if summed up all that there had been, all that is and all that ever would be, between two hearts who loved truly. It was all about youth and love. Youthful energy and amour galore.
And it was this that tormented her beyond measure. It was this helplessness that sometimes irked her no end and turned her cranky and crazy. She wanted to let him know that it was with him that she had truly experienced happiness, true calm and peace even if on a rocky boat! But for now she had to go on with her job and do well. As he had to focus on what he was doing, what with so many detractors lurking and challenges smirking. Dreamy getaways would be found and perhaps one day some semblance of 'Happily Ever After'!!:-)
This is one of my all time favourites sung by Asha Bhosle, composed by R D Burman and written by Anand Bakshi.
