Chal Chal - Astitva (2000)



Chal Chal Mere Sang is a wonderful song by Sukhwinder Singh from the movie Astitva. Sukhwinder has sung this song beautifully with a lot of intensity and depth leave alone the lyrics are quite apt for the situation in the movie.

Secondly, I believe Tabu and the guy (I don't know his name but he is Nutan's son) gave such brilliant expressions in this song that it is hard to ignore.

Astitva was a movie of substance (for a niche market of course)...a story about an unhappy couple who do not admit that they are leading unhappy lives where the husband is unfaithful throughout his life and the wife is all submissive. This song is about that one moment where the wife gets attracted to another man and how it all comes back to haunt her much later in her life.

I loved this movie...will not recommend it to everyone but people who like serious cinema will love it too.
