        Song: Rasiyaa Re Man Basiyaa Re~~, Tere  Bina  Jiya  Mora
Laage Na

        Film:   Pardesi (1957)
        Music:  Anil Biswas
        Lyrics: Shailendra
        Singer: Meena Kapoor
        *ing:   Nargis, Shaikh Mukhtar?, ?, ?

This Indian-Russian joint venture has some extremely good  songs.
This solo by Meena Kapoor most famous. Throughout the song, flute
(by Pannalal Ghosh?) notes are  only  second  to  Meena's  lovely
voice  catching  one's  attention.  One  more thing that is worth
mentioning  about  this  beauty  is  stunning  sitar  pieces   as
interlude  before  last antara. It's effectiveness and vibrations
it creates is beyond limits of anybody's descriptive  power.  And
then that interlude culminates in some nice santoor pieces to end
a great interlude. How can the talent and stamp  of  genius  stay
hidden  for  long  time ? When you hear it, you can think of only
one man on the earth: Anil Biswas.
