Baanwra Mann-A Song That Reads Your Mind
‘Eye within eye - daybreak’
‘Baanwra mann dekhne chala ek sapna..’
This Hindi song against the backdrop of a pithy poem by Pritish Nandy makes you think about your inner voice. Or voices - ones that contradict each other. Much like the movie that this beautiful song is a part of - Hazaaron Khwahishein Aisi.
The song paints a beautiful picture of a puzzled mind that’s curious and jubilant.
A mind that dreams larger than life - weaving maddening stories with a racing heartbeat.
The voices in this mind render its pillow sleepless. While the eyes dreaming this dream yearn to see idyllic memories with melodies playing along. Crazy tunes of an out of the world song.
Pining for an ally in the convoluted world that it has conjured up - reaching out for a friendly hand in the not-so-naive crowd.
Dancing on its own to a heavenly beat - Banwra man dekhne chala ek sapna!
