I don't think that there is anybody in India who loves Hindi cinema and doesn't know about Gulzar. I am a big fan of his lyrics. I am listening his songs since childhood. So today, when I saw this book at a bookstore, then I started reading it instantly.

This is a collection of his 100 popular songs from Hindi movies. Though there were only a few songs that I was able to recognize, I enjoyed reading the less known ones. Actually what was happening is that whenever I was reading a song that I already knew, I was singing it instead of reading it like a poem :D So obviously I read the others as poetry which I didn't knew.

I don't think that it is possible to give any review to his work, because his writing is just awesome. The words and their meanings are so much meaningful. My favourites are the songs "Tujhse naraz nahi Zindagi", "Mera kuch Samaan" and "Tera bina Zindagi se". Actually there are many more favourites, but I can't write them all here :p

If you love the songs of Gulzar, then you must read this collection.
