"Rimjhim gire sawan" in "Manzil". I love the
song. Awesome composition by Rahul Dev Burman, fabulous lyrics by
Yogesh and terrific singing by Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar.
And it was shot on Amitabh Bachchan and Moushumi Chatterjee on Marine
Drive. I loved the chemistry between them. I also like "Dilbara"
from "Dhoom" because it's my tune and I like how Abhishek
Bachchan, Uday Chopra and Esha Deol romp in the rain. |

My favourite rain song is "Rimjhim gire saawan" from "Manzil".
It has an earthy aromatic feel to it and has been shot candidly
in the streets of Mumbai.

"Bheegi-bheegi raaton mein" from "Ajnabee" sung
by Kishore da and Lata Mangeshkar. What I like the most about the
song is the on-screen pair Rajesh Khanna and Zeenat Aman. |
Manoj Bajpai
"Rim-jhim gire sawan" in "Manzil". It's simple
yet sensuous. I don't like in-the-face sensuality. I don't think
we can capture that mood ever again. We aren't that simple any longer.

"Hai hai yeh majboori" in "Roti Kapda Aur Makaan".
Laxmikant-Pyarelal's tune, Lataji's singing, Zeenat Aman on screen
and Manoj Kumar's direction. What else? |

Mehra
The filmmaker liked "Little Miss Sunshine", "Lage Raho
Munna Bhai", "Volver", "Krrish" and "The
Departed". "And if I'm allowed my own movie, then 'Krrish'
would be replaced by 'Rang De Basanti'", said Mehra. |

"Rimjhim gire sawan"
- it's a brilliant composition, serene and sensuous, fragrant and
romantic, and to this day, as fresh as the first showers. |

Ghosh
"Chotisi kahani se, baarishon ke paani se" in the film
"Ijaazat". Gulzar bhai has written other rain songs like
"Barse phuhar" in "Thodisi Bewafaii" and "Phirse
aayo barda bidesi" in "Namkeen". But the "Ijaazat"
song remains special. It defined the entire mood of the film. I
wish I could've used it in my own film "Raincoat".. |
