Rekha's beauty, Khayyam's soulful compositions and Asha's beautiful voice. Is it really possible to disassociate them from one other when you think of Umrao Jaan. The music of Umrao Jaan was really beautiful. I cannot even find words to describe the magic in Asha ji's voice when she sings Dil cheez kya hai, In aankhon ki masti, Yeh kya jagah hai doston or Justju jiski thi. I very recently started singing and recording songs and really wanted to sing something from Umrao Jaan fully aware that I may not even be able to recreate 50% of the Umrao Jaan magic :). The very second song that I recorded was Justju jiski thi (you can hear my first recording on esnips if interested) and I wanted it to be the first one on my blog because I am a huge huge fan of Asha Bhonsle. I want to thank Krishnan Sir and Smitha for the encouraging comments they left on my esnips folder. I also specially want to thank Smitha for introducing me to this world of audio blogging so this posting is dedicated to her. Please listen when you have time and don't hesitate to give your positive/negative feedback.

Loved it!!! Keep posting more songs!
Hi Nandita...
Wowow...Excellent rendition. This is a very difficult song. You have done a very good job in all respects. You almost sounded like Asha ji at many places. Some slight pitching issues were felt ...but not to be taken seriously for a song otherwise so well rendered. Keep singing and sharing...All the best N V K
Very nice singing Nandita. Looking forward to hear more from you. :-)

hey,
you sound awesome!! I was playing it on my computer and I asked Dan if he knew who it was. When I told him it was you he couldn't believe it - he thought it was pretty good too (that's saying a lot he is not a big fan of Bollywood music)!!

Shiva: Hey thanks for listening :). Glad you liked it. Thank Dan as well. Maybe if you show him better movies than "The Hero" he will start appreciating bollywood ha ha ha.
