This as mentioned was in early 1957. Citing the reason for her selections Geeta mentioned

" I feel that a song must express human emotions in simple language and in a tune that affords the singer sufficient scope to do full justice to the thought underlying the lyric. I feel that the songs I have listed are simple enough to be appreciated by people of all ages at all times."

Geeta Dutt Bengali Songs :

Jhiri Jhiri Chaitali

Aakash Jure Sapno Maya

Krishna chura Aagun Tumi

O sur bhara Dur Nilimai

Phuler Bone laglo je dol

Nafeesa Memon
Here's Nafeesa!



After all, the late filmmaker Guru Dutt's blood does run in the veins of his grand-daughter. Isn't it? Nafeesa Memon, the 17-year-old grand daughter of Guru Dutt and Geeta Dutt, makes her acting debut in a video album, "Pal." Dedicated to Guru Dutt and Geeta Dutt, the album has Geeta Dutt's songs sung by their daughter Nina, Nafeesa's mother. One of the songs, the evergreen "Mera Naam Chin Chin Choo," will be filmed on the budding model-actress Nafeesa. A home science student in Pune, Nafeesa is already a leading model. She did her modeling course with Bunty & Prashant, a leading modeling agency in Pune, and is now being trained in dancing by Shiamak Davar and groomed for a career in acting in films. With an aunt such as Kalpana G. Lajmi and uncle like Shyam Benegal, it should be smooth sailing as far as her goal of acting in films is concerned for young Nafeesa.

Guru Dutt: Daughter Nina pays tribute

Nafeesa
When singer Nina Dutt Memon finished recording her pop album, Pal, dedicated to her parents Guru and Geeta Dutt, she needed a vivacious model for the video of the remixed Mera Naam Chin Chin Choo.

Nina's search began and ended when she realised that her 17-year-old daughter, Nafeesa (a budding model—actress), was the right choice for the song.

Trained dancer

Not surprisingly, Nafeesa, a home science student in Pune, is maha—thrilled. "It's an honour to be part of this musical tribute to my grandparents. Very often, I used to wish that I was born during the golden era of haunting Guru Dutt melodies. And Chin Chin Choo happens to be my favourite song," gushes Nafeesa, who is being trained in dancing
by Shiamak Davar.

Bollywood calling

Is she planning to act? "Why not? I feel I am cut out for both modelling and showbiz. Since my dad, Naushad, is the creative head of a reputed film production house, he is also supportive about my acting career," discloses Memon, whose favourite actors are Hrithik Roshan and Shahid Kapur.
"They are so-o-o cute," she smiles, tossing her curly tresses.
