Lata celebrated the sibling bond

Today (August 3, 2020) is Raksha Bandhan – the day sisters tie a rakhi on their brothers’ wrists.

And I was wondering why I hadn’t included Bhaiya Mere Rakhi Ke Bandhan Ko Nibhana in my blog on the music of Hindi films released between 1950 and 1959.

The song – interestingly from the 1959 film Chhoti Bahen – is one of the most popular songs associated with the annual celebration of the bond between siblings, and was rendered by none other than Lata Mangeshkar.

It was penned by Shailendra, and composed by Shankarsingh Raghuvanshi and Jaikishan Dayabhai Panchal.
