Ehsaan Tera Hoga Mujh Par - Cover by Sarada

This time I wanted to sing one of the classics from the yester years, from the film Junglee. This song was initially composed for and sung by Rafi sahab. Then later it is decided to have the female version as well in the movie and Lata ji sang it in Rafi sahab's scale after the song was already picturized on Saira Banu. I love both versions of the song. The composition, expressions and emotions in the song are just classic. The high notes in the antaras make the song challenging for the singers to sing. Raag Yaman is a lok priya raag they say, and this song is no exception. It is everyone's favorite song.  Hope you enjoy my humble attempt.

Sanwaar Loon - Cover by Sarada

Picturized on gorgeous Sonakshi Sinha, the song "Sawaar Loon" is reminiscent of the Hindi film music from the 60s and 70s both in terms of its fine lyrics as well as music. Very sweetly sung by Monali Thakur, the song soon became a favorite for many reality show contestants lately. Recently, in one of the online forums, a theme asked members to present songs with a "Twist" from the original version. Participants present their versions of songs changing something about the original song. That theme gave me the opportunity to attempt and sing the Sawaar loon song combining it with a classic Lata ji song, Ajeeb Dastan. So, here goes my humble attempt. Hope you enjoy Sawaar Loon from Lootera!!! I start with "Ajeeb Dastan" and continue to "Sawaar Loon".  "Kahaan Shuroo, Hai Kahaan Khatam..." :)
