such peoples are not born very often .

You know. I was listening to Saawan Ke Jhoole Pade a few days ago.

That song and Rim Jhim Gire Saawan are so beautiful. I wasn't even born in that era and every time I listen to those songs, I feel super nostalgic (reverse nostalgia of sorts!).

A singer who sang for 8 decades across ~ 36 languages. She will live forever through her songs.

Meanwhile, across the border ❤️

This is why her loss feels so personal.

Her songs are not just her songs, they have become 'our' songs, just as she became our identity, part of who we are and what our Indianness means.
