Who has sang this beautiful song from Anarkali ? She has sang for almost all the actresses of hindi film and is called the nightingale of india . She is none other than Lata Mangeshkar one of the or rather the most melodious of indian singers immortalised by her love songs . As anyone in art knows to sing soul renderingly you have to give soul to the music while singing . There is no paradox in Lata Mangeshkar singing love songs for past 70+ years except that she is single .
Now how did i pick it up . Those who follow my blogs know that im voyeuristic when one category is involved : famous people . I read their biographies online . Now before speculations and further analysis lets stop our black and white thinking of single life and go to another famous person .
Dil saa jab saathi paya Bechaini bhi woh saath le aaya" (When I found someone like my heart He also brought sorrow with him)
Known for her poetry as above but much more known for her acting she is also a paradox . Meena Kumari , the actress , who portrayed great roles of love in movies but who had an equally tragic married life . She died of liver cirrhosis brought on by heavy drinking after a tumultous married life . A happily single woman she married Kamal Amrohi and the marriage was unhappy and ended in divorce and her premature death due to heavy drinking .
No no i am not a cynic taking out and presenting the paradoxes in personal life of some celebrities . But seeing updates of my childhood beautiful woman in television Suchitra Krishnamoorthy , the blog of the pretty girl Heera Rajagopal (film Nirnayam ), and countless others i cannot but briefly wonder about the paradoxes of love .
And the real life narrations of the happily single , unhappily single , happily married and unhappily married among my small but wide circle of friends ( they do talk to me on a deeper level ) i wont say philosophically that love is an enigma . When marriages of long duration break up and some join the "single " world (seeing these days ) then too i wont say love is an enigma . I only say hold onto the love you have and cherish it and try to find it if you dont have it this moment ..
