RaagTime Episode 9 - Movie Songs Part II

With the sounds of Vittala ringing in our ears we move along the west coast towards Gujarat. The song Garvi re Gujarat from the Gujarati movie Thakor Ni Lohi Bhini speaks of the locals' pride in their land. Rajasthan, the land of deserts and palaces and culinary delights such as dhaal-bhaati-churma draws millions of tourists every year. The song Jai Jai Rajasthan from the Rajasthani movie Thari Mhari celebrates the beauty of this state. Food ranks high up there on any traveller's list. A mad dash across the country towards the eastern side for a taste of rosogullas, a Bengali sweet rich in sugar and cottage cheese has one listening to the song Prithibi Hariye Gelo from the classic Bengali movie Guru Dakshina. On the eastern coast lies the state of Orissa or Odisha with its beautiful lakes and forests. The natural beauty of the land creates a romantic ambience much like the song Golapi Golapi from the movie of the same name.
