Bade Achhe…

What’s a song that changed your life?

Listen to the song first.. Very Indian, very slow paced and full of sentiments….

Song-Bade Achhe Lagte Hain

Movie -Balika Badhu (1976)

This song got me the day I first heard it from a friend who sang mellifluously at an event in college. It epitomized the softest of the soft feelings of love… Originally sung so very well by singer Amit Kumar and filmed on a “baby face” hero  (actor Sachin) and his young bride (actor Rajni)  in the movie…it always gave my heart -a small little wring !

No, my beau didn’t sing it for me 😁 yet he swept me off my feet. The song stayed with me, a favourite , as an epitome of romantic lyrics ‘an individual emotion in itself‘. I always felt a different connection with the cosmos whenever I heard this song…

This song was on my playlist  almost every single day of my precious pregnancy. God blessed him, my restless baby in the womb would immediately stop his acrobatics the very moment the opening notes of the song wafted out of the speakers….

You get a prize for guessing what  was the first song my baby tried to sing on his own  in his baby vocab!!😁😁 Hehehehe….you got it!

It’s an anthem in my family, a  number we rib each other with, at the lowest of moments and the grins just  bring out all the love and sunshine ❤️
