Was it 1966 or 1967? Radio was big then. There was no television, so cinema lived in the lives of us pre-teenagers only through the songs. There was this kid who was boasting to his friend\u2014 both about ten years old\u2014 that his father had bought a new car. This had raised the social status of his family, a fact both the kids were aware of even at that juvenile age. Just then, Mukesh\u2019s voice rang out, Na haathi hai, na ghoda hai, wahaan paidal hi jana hai\u2026 Sajan re jhootth mat bolo\u2026\u201d <\/i>As if on cue, the second child responded, \u201cHeard that? We will all have to go to God on foot. So what good is your father\u2019s car?\u201d<\/p>\n
