I was only nine when the movie, Dhwani, released in 1988. I still remember posters, I still remember the raves about its songs, I also remember the disappointment when I finally got to see the movie. Actually I have never watched Dhwani as a grown up, but it was definitely a disappointment for a nine or ten year old. But it had the songs, 'the songs', and people went on humming those tunes for many years.
One of it's songs had made me cry, though I had no idea why. Every time I heard that song , tears would come uninvited, and my child-brain would feel the agony of some very grown-up emotions. Every single time!
Years went by and I completely forgot about the song. I stumbled upon it yesterday almost by accident and now I cannot stop listening to it. I think I know why I cried for this song.
Here it is. Avoiding the original video as its ridiculous, just plain ridiculous. Lets just look at Dr K.J Yesudas' serene face instead.
