Kishore’s fans’ love was deep

I knew that Sharbati was a variety of rice.

And recently, I heard a song in which Rajinder Krishan used the word to describe Rakhee’s eyes.

On reading about it, I found that the track in question – Main Doob Doob Jaata Hoon – was from Black Mail (1973).

It was composed by Kalyanji-Anandji, the sons of a grocer. Hence, the grain analogy in the opening line of this post makes sense.

The song was (Kisho)rendered by Mr Kumar, whose fans probably wanted to paraphrase the song to, “Hum bhi aapke gaane sunke doob doob jaate hain”.
