AN EVENING WORTH DYING FOR........

Their masterly; poetic; mesmerising; mellifluous; intoxicating; euphoric and uplifting creative collaborations have indeed been the stuff of legend and a lot more besides and this piece of information/news concerning these two legends is certainly music to the ears of an avowed fan like moi.......
 If the Hindi film or then should I say music industry grapevine is to be taken at face value; the nation's "eternal" and arguably finest bard Sampooran Singh Kalra (or then Gulzar Sahab) as he is better known may finally end up penning a few verses dedicated the everlasting and immortal memory of his dear departed comrade in arms ghazal maestro Jagjit Singh........
 According to sources intimately or closely connected with the proposed event slated to be held at a celebrated venue in the nation's commercial capital (Mumbai) later this evening and will see the official launch of the late Jagjit Singh's incomparable rendition of "Koi Fariyaad" as the reprised and revamped "Teri Fariyaad"........
 This once in a lifetime event more than adroitly planned; envisaged; envisioned and meticulously executed by the much envied Bhushan Kumar; Anubhav Sinha duo to coincide with the ghazal maestros fifth death anniversary will also herald the launching of the latest musical track of the much awaited "Tum Bin 2"............
 A strictly exclusive and cloistered strictly by invitation event only meant for the who's who of the Hindi film and music industry; this unforgettable evening more than appropriately titled "Tum Bin Jagjit Singh" will see an assembly of proven; tried and tested musical talents like Anup Jalota; Rekha Bhardwaj; Hariharan; Ankit Tewari; and last but not the least Talat Aziz gracing the occasion and paying their respectful and heartfelt homage to their predecessor in their own inimitable manner........
 Now here is certainly one evening that any and every two bit or then die hard ghazal afficionado would happily die and go to heaven and even much beyond for more than willingly.......
