[ listen ]
Here's a pretty song from the 1957 Indian film [Pyaasa]. Singer Geeta Dutt was born in Bangladesh in November of 1930 and married up-and-coming film director Guru Dutt in 1953, but then she drank herself to death in July of 1972. You can read more about Geeta Dutt's life and career on Wikipedia [here] and there's another interesting article about the singer [here].
January 30, 2009 update: A Geeta Dutt fan named Parag wrote to let me know that he/she was involved in the recent creation of this terrific [Geeta Dutt tribute website], where you can find photos, trivia, songs and pretty much everything you've ever wanted to know about Geeta Dutt but were afraid to ask. Thanks, Parag!
