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.
