My eyes popped open to some sound. I looked at the clock, it was 9am, and it was my neighbors who were playing music very loudly as usual. It was still very cold so covered myself under the quilt again. I could still hear some hindi song playing outside and it barely took me 5 seconds to realise that it was "Chupke Chupke raat din" and I instantly got up and said wow! what a song, though I didn't want to. I must have heard this song after 7 or 8 years.
I was humming it while I was drinking tea, while I was taking shower, while I was Reading a book, And while I was getting scolded by my father. I desperately needed this song on my ipod.I knew that I didn't have this song in my computer, and My broadband connection wasn't working. so went to my brother room to check his collection, yes. My brother is your ultimate guide to 60's, 70's, and 80's music. But all my efforts went in vain. It was one those moments, you know, when curiosity grows on you until you fulfill that.
Now it was 12 o'clock, I had to drop my sister-in-law to some relatives place. t 2.30pm, I got into planet M, To my horrific surprise they did not have it either. The curiosity had become a challenge now, suddenly I got a idea , i called up my telecoms care, activated an Internet plan, got back home, plugged in the data cable, downloaded the live concert of this song. And there I was, listening to it, you had to be there to believe it.The harmonium played, the tabla complimented, the audience clapped, and I couldn't stop smiled.
I was blushing, blushing until my face reddened, until my jaw ached, until I got goose bumped. As i am posting this, the song is playing in back ground for the 17th time. And with every sher I am blushing again.
