And then it so happened....aur phir yoon huva

Another song of note  in the movie Striker was “Aur phir Yoon Huva” composed and sung by the extremely talented Vishal Bhardwaj - one the best movie makers in Mumbai currently.

Gulzar sahab’s subtle but rich lyrics make this a unique number.“Raat ek khwab ne jagaa diya” – a dream woke me up - Typically unique of Gulzar’s creativity with a pen. 

The whole song is set up beautifully around not being able to sleep (or not being able to come out a dream, whichever way you interpret Gulzar-sahab's wily play of words). Listen in a loop, and at each hearing the words seem to evolve one step further until the song slowly consumes you fully.

This too turned out to be shot completely unlike what I had imagined…..
