I love thee once, I'll love no more,
Thine be the grief and is the blame;
Thou are not what thou wast before—
What reason should I be the same?

What a lovely song!!! Loved everything about it - including the picturization (apart from Rafi saab's voice). I haven't seen the movie but Saira looks amazing in the songs.
ReplyDeleteLove the way Rafi saab says apnee toh jaan pe bann aayee hai the most :-)
I totally agree with you sunheriyaadein. Picturisation was very good. Dev Anand was appropriately restrained in mannerism. As for Saira, (sigh!) not only she looks lovely, but her expressions in every stanza of the song steal away our heart. Vibrant music by SJ as usual. As for Rafi Sahaab's, with his voice and style he has infused life into the good lyrics!
ReplyDeleteDev, when restrained in mannerism, was superb. And yes, Saira had expressions to match every phrase.
