long back i heard a gazal...
ajnabi sheher ke ajnabi raaste,
meri tanhaai pur muskuraate rahe...
could some give me the information of this song as well as the singer's name... please

There is one version by Ashok Khosla that I remember as being quite good. You can listen to it here - http://www.musicindiaonline.com/l/9/m/artist.1256/.
Shaibaal.

Yessssssss!!! Shaibaal... thats the one... is it originally in Ashok Khosla's voice? also whats the name of the album... could someone plz u/l it here???

Preety,
I do believe that Ashok's version is the "original" - I used to have the tape years ago and can't even remember the name. I will snoop around and let you know if I can find some information. Ashok Khosla was introduced by Jagjit Singh in an album called "The brightest talents of the Eighties" or something like that and subsequently this particular ghazal (IIRC) is from his first full album.

Preety,
This ghazal has also been sung exceptionally beautifully by Ahmed Hussain & Mohd Hussain.

First of all its Ajnabi Seher MEIN ajnabi raaste and not "KE".... aur itne nakhre karne ki kya jaruraat just say need this ghazal yeh long long time ago tau sirf fairy stories mein hi hota hain naa .. ha ha JK...

Here is the wonderful ghazal you have requested, in the voice of Ashok Khosla BTW, I used to have all his TAPES, right now they might be lying somewhere , someplace in INDIA... but here is the CD Quality of Ajnabi Seher mein.....



Bhibas , tried a lot in the past and spent few minutes now too, trying to seek the poet of this ghazal or its origin.... Hussein brothers have sung as Ajnabi sheher "KE" , where else Ashok Khosla , and Chandan Das have sung as Ajnabi sheher "MEIN".... well I have the Hussen bro's version as well... but I think that was uploaded by someone over here few months ago so you must have it ....

maybe i have heard the Hussein brothers Ajnabi seher "KE"
thank you very much Jay... have heard it just a few times and this is one of the gazal that didnt make me go to sleep...

btw what about the female voice someone tells me very strongly that there is a version with female voice too

The female version is still under production we should find it in SJ sur mein na sahi section sung by Preety , composed by divya and market by T - series ... ("T' for Talaikya) ... ha ha ha LOL ....
