RIGHT PRIYA JI,
Where is Unniji in the pic????????????
Bappa
BTW what is the language in the pic!!!
Call me Priya, Bappada.
Unni, dekho Bappada bhi humse sehmat hain, ab tumhara kya hoga?
Bappada, that pic is some prehistoric thing--Unni ke zamane ke. Hum kya samjhenge?
Actually do not call me Da....Unniji should not at least as we both are alumnus of the same school. He was senior to me!!!!
But after a certain age anyone can be addressed Da or Di.....People (like a friend's husband or neighbour), if you are not sure you address as Mr. or Mrs. so and so......but woh to purane zamana ki baat!!!
adress my mother as Didi out of respect
Anyway, from now on call me Bappa, unless you are really little ( I hope you are not perpetually 18!!!!)
Lets get to first name basis. But Unniji is what I should call him till he askes me to adrees him otherwise
Bappa
Priya,
You know often I have found that the reason why you like an artist or dislike are the same reasons why someone else just feels opposite to what you feel. As an example I can site Talat Mahmood. I like Talat Saab's voice or rather voice quality. I mean no matter what he sings becomes more magical in his voice. That velvetty voice, which a friend of mine calls shaky and hence dislikes it!!!
Similarly Meena Kumari, is a person who we argue about a lot. Her looks are liked by some, and others feels she is not!!! I just like the same things in her which others dislike.......
Like I do not like Raj Kapoor's film technique at all, but others like his presentations. I love Guru Dutt for the same reality projection and self pity which some people hate!!!
SIMILARLY GEETA AND ASHA. I just love the quality of Geeta Dutt's voice more than any other artist!!! All these people are too great to be compartmentalized!!!
Only thing I have is that I wish Geeta had the same luck as the others : Lata & Asha.....As S.D. Burman wanted to work with her when Lata and he were in a tussle....but chose asha as Geeta was a wreck by then...
Just some thoughts-
Bappa
