Just in case some of you haven't yet come across the mini Biographies of Geeta Dutt @ this IMDb page. Especially the one by Dr. Jyoti Prakash Guha is filled with a lot of facts.

Many thanks Prosenjit for this link. I almost missed reading these couple of articles on IMDB.

Best Regards

A lot of unpleasant things are said about Lata ji many a times, but this is a very touching incident where Lata ji indirectly helped her friend Geeta ji and we got to listen to the immortal song "Waqt ne kiya" in Geeta ji's voice.

Quote:

After a violent quarrel one day, Geeta threatened Guru Dutt that she would never sing in his films. Guru Dutt immediately contacted Lata Mangeshkar, who agreed readily to sing for Kagaz Ke Phool. However, Geeta came to know of this and went straight to Lata and requested her to dissociate herself from the project. Lata listened sympathetically, understood the situation and called Guru Dutt and told him that she would not be able to sing for him. So Guru Dutt went to back to his wife.
