sharada

Very true Vandana, Sharada lacked the versatality. But certainly her voice was good, enjoyable. I do not feel the around the world songs, any other person sang, would have suited to Rajashree, the heroin. I am sooooooooooo happy to see some one talking about so many number songs of those days. I felt as though I listened to all those songs.

Wow, I am so glad to get some people who know old Hindi numbers. I feel so out of place at times because only I seem to be knowing the famous numbers of that time. :) I agree with you about the quality of Sharada's voice. However, I was always Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle fan. The other singers I could like was Sudha Malhotra (Darshan Do Ghanshyamnath ..., and Tum mujhe bhool bhi jaao to yeh hak hai tumko, Geeta Dutt - koi chupke se aake, aaj ki kaali ghata, suno gajar kyaa gaaye, babuji dheere chalna, jaane kahan mera jigar gaya ji, piya aiso jiya mein, naa jaao saiyaan chuda ke baiyaan, and of course Tadbeer se bigadi hui taqdeer bana le, Jagjit Kaur - tum apna ranjo gum, even Noor Jahan and Suraiyya. I think the only two who could really survive against Asha Bhonsle and Lata Mangeshkar were Geeta Dutt, and Suman Kalyanpur. I do think Sharada lacked the versatility these people had displayed. Moreover, the texture would look odd on most leading ladies of the time, as there should be some voice match for the leading lady to burst into a song. :)
