Very deep, meaningful song! Moreover, Sukhwinder has sung it beautifully. Before I talk about the song, I want to say a little bit about the movie Astitva. This movie revolves around male chauvinism, spousal abuse & extra-marital affairs. It's okay for a man to have an affair any time but if his wife slept with someone almost 25 years, he insulted her right in front of his friends & their son by forcing her to narrate the story. She was of course lonely & frustrated when she slept with the music teacher. You could see the expressions on her face. She was starved as her husband never bothered about her feelings & this music teacher was a gentleman. Anyhow, he left behind everything for Tabu & that's how Tabu's husband starts going through his dairies & it occurs to him that he wasn't around when his wife got pregnant. This movie is also about a woman trying to find a separate identity outside her marriage.
I think Tabu has given better expressions than genuinely starved people. As I said in one of my posts last night: what if no one wants to sleep with you? That is a problem. She was a married woman...in spite of that, she faced the same frustration that no one was keen on her or no one desired her. What happens between the music teacher & her was inevitable.
Anyway, I'm crazy after this song.
What a beautiful thing to say: 'Meray dil ki dharkan mein tu lamha lamha har pal!' & 'Hai teray bin sab kuch tanha tanha har pal!'
And even these lines are so beautiful: 'Ae meri haseen ghazal, maheka meheka tera anchal.'
I loved it how he says 'Meri jaan-e-ghazal.'
