'Yatra' Team Recreates The (Vintage) 'Umrao Jaan' Magic !

- Abid           Let us know what you think about this story

The first song promo of 'Yatra' , featuring Rekha , confused many , as the first impression was that it was from the 1981 classic ,'Umrao Jaan' . Reason being Rekha's ethereal beauty and fluid motions , Khayyam's timeless melody and of course Asha Bhosle's ageless voice . And the point not to be missed ; the same ambience . Even poet Ahmad Wasi matches up to the magic of the original 'Umrao Jaan' lyricist , Prof. AMK Shaharyaar .

Yes , we are talking about " Jaam-e-Mohabbat" from Gautam Ghosh's Nana-Rekha starrer 'Yatra' .

Sample the first couplet in Rekha's sonorous and sensual voice -

" Jaam-e-Mohabbat , Aankhon se hi pee lete hain dilwale , Ek nazar mein mujhko padhkar , Jee lete hain dilwale ."

Another 'Dil Cheez Kya Hai ' up the anvil ? Only time will tell !
