Happy birthday to one of the finest actresses of Indian screen – Shabana Azmi! Contrary to her image, it is the perfect time to recall some of the most beautiful songs picturised on her on this special day – an aspect of films we don’t typically associate her with! My favorites include…
– Phir kisi shaakh ne phenki chhao (Libaas)
– Do naina aur ek kahaani (Masoom)
– Phir se aiyyo badra bidesi (Namkeen)
– Halke halke aayi chalke (Apne Paraaye)
– Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho (Arth)
– Bheega bheega mausam (Suraag)
– Pal bhar me yeh kya ho gaya (Swami)
– Ajnabee kaun ho tum (Sweekar kiya maine)
– Khali pyala dhundhla darpan (Sparsh)
– Hazaar rahein mudke dekhi (Thodi si bewafai)
