It gave the listeners Rahat

Over the years, the eyes – especially those of women – have inspired many a lyricist, but only one of Gulzar’s calibre could state that the eyes are tricksters.

The song in question is Naina Thag Lenge, from Omkara. It was half-a-dozen minutes and 49 seconds long.

This isn’t a song that would instantly appeal to listeners of all age groups. One must listen to it repeatedly, so that it grows on him/her. But once it does, the melody – credited to none other than Vishal Bhardwaj – will surely linger.

It was rendered by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.
