Jayeeta Majumdar Singhee

Listen to the song Pappu cant dance sala from the album, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and you will instantly fall in love with this song ESPECIALLY made for those young, and full-of-life college goers. I have listened to this song endlessly since the last two days, and cant help smiling each time I hear it.

Han Pappu naach nahi sakta Paida Pappu hua to kismatein chamaki

Aur uske muh mein thi chandi ki chamchi

(hey yeh yeh) Pappu ke paas hai paisa

(hey yeh yeh) Hathon ki mail ke jaisa

(hey yeh yeh) Pappu yaaron ka yaar hai

(hey yeh yeh) Pappu smart hai short hai

Each time I heard it, I kept feeling that Amir wrote this song for Sanjay (in school and in college). And then I heard the line that nailed the last one in.

Rado ki ghadi hathon mein, Perfume gucci vala

Eureka!!!! This is Sanjay for sure. And the name is all right too. Ishaan calls his papa, Pappu :-d

The only point that can prove me wrong here is that “Pappu CAN Dance” in our case. And dance all night and all day if required. Amir, can we have some sort of a remixed/re-lyrics version where we change the main tag line.

While at it, some of the other songs in the album are good too. Kabhi Kabhi Aditi makes me 16 once again. 16 and in love. My heart beating faster than it did in a long long time.

Kahin To makes me nostalgic in a way I cant explain. It reminds me of Nazia and Zoheb Hassan, or maybe even Ali Haider. Remember Purani jeans?

This is a lovely Rehman. A much younger one, compared to his previous exquisite Serious-compositions. Anyway, I will leave you to go and buy that CD now, while I go back to listening to my favorite number at the moment.
