#241         Song: Mere Watan  Se  Achchha  Koi  Watan  Nahi  Hai
                Sare Jahaan Me Aisa Koi Ratan Nahi Hai

        Film:   Ladki   (1953)            Music:  C    Ramchandra
        Lyrics: Rajendra  Krishna         Singer: Lata Mangeshkar
        *ing:   Vyjantimala, Kishor Kumar

This song is not a typical C Ramchandra composition. Little  less
striking tune is used. Lata's voice too is very thin, compared to
other songs of that time.  What makes it worth is it's lyrics ...
And a short tarana in the end; rendered beautifully.
