Ms Mangeshkar described most (La)tales

This is a strange story. Neither of us know where it began, and where it will end. And we haven’t figured out the destinations (of our respective journeys) yet, either.

No, that isn’t the story of my life, but an attempt to translate the evergreen Ajeeb Dastaan Hai Yeh, the only track from Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai (1960) on this blog.

It was rendered by none other than Lata Mangeshkar.

Penned by Shailendra, the track was composed by Shankar Jaikishan, who, surprisingly, bagged the Filmfare Award in the Best Music Director category in 1961.
