Noorjehan: on a nostalgic trip
She was the archetypal singing star, the heart-throb of millions in the '40s.
Noorjehan, however, left India for Pakistan at the peak of her career, leaving behind a legacy of soulful songs and memorable performances such as her last role in
Jugnu, opposite tragedian
Dilip Kumar. Now, however, the melodious lady is returning to India, only on a visit of course, to relive the past in the company of former friends and colleagues. The good news of Noorjehan's return came from another of the playback tribe,
Kamal Barot, who was in Pakistan recently to record a series of ghazals.
