DHOOP KE SIKKE

Songs and music are an integral part of Indian cinema and have helped film-makers complement and enhance their narratives in numerous ways for decades. A large part of the responsibility of weaving the song into the fabric of the story lies with the songwriter. Dhoop ke Sikke: Ek Kavyamay Yatra offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of the nation’s best loved poet-lyricists. Whether it is the tender ‘Ma’ from 'Taare Zameen Par', the inspirational ‘Khoon Chala’ from 'Rang De Basanti' or the fun-filled ‘Sasural Genda Phool’ from 'Delhi 6', Prasoon Joshi’s songs have never failed to touch a chord with audiences. A collection of some of his best songs in Hindi, with a thought-provoking perspective on what goes into the making of a song by the master lyricist, this book is a must-have for anyone who has ever loved poetry and songs.
