Highlights
Kishore Kumar’s fans from all over the country have reached Khandwa. Milk and jalebi were offered at Kishore da’s samadhi. Playback singers Milan Singh and Srijit also reached Khandwa.
Khandwa (Kishore Kumar Birthday). The charming song of the 1979 film Manzil, Rimjhim Gire Sawan, Sulag-Sulag Jaye Man… came alive again on Sunday (August 4), when his fans gathered at Kishore Da’s Samadhi amidst the drizzle of Sawan. Seeing his fans, Kishore Da must have hummed this song while resting in the Samadhi and must have drowned in the mixed feelings of happiness and sorrow while yodeling.
Actually, on Sunday, being the birth anniversary of the great playback singer Kishore Da born in Khandwa, hundreds of his fans from far and wide gathered at his samadhi. Here everyone offered fragrant flowers. During this time, it kept drizzling, so it seemed as if Kishore Da’s mind had woken up again in this weather – let’s get wet today in this weather, what is this fire.
The minister sang, the collector and the SP hummed
On the birth anniversary of Kishore da, his fans from many cities of Madhya Pradesh including Mumbai, Akola, Gujarat reached Khandwa. The Samadhi was decorated with flowers by the Municipal Corporation. Kishore da used to say – I will eat milk, jalebi and settle in Khandwa, hence milk and jalebi were also offered at his Samadhi.
