Geeta ji has sung over 1200 songs in Hindi Films.
Many of her songs have taken the "hit". They were either deleted or not picturised, unreleased or not credited to her. I am making this special thread for such songs. I know only a few but surely senior members would have many more. Best Regards

And what about the singer, who sang "Kaise le aaon rakhiya main bhaiyya more paaon mein bedi padi" for the same film? This one pair of songs is more than enough to showcase the versatility of the golden voice of Geeta Dutt.
Somehow I have this feeling, those who like songs of Geeta Dutt (on HF and overall in general) are not so vocal about how good a singer she is. I get a feeling we kind of keep a low profile and are some what conservative when it comes to praising the talent of this melody queen. In this regards, Haimanti ji has been absolutely showering the right praises on the central character of her book. Just my 2 cents! Cheers Parag Please visit www.geetadutt.com

Cheers Parag My feeling is they are few in number due to less availability of her songs and hence their voice is heard less. Everybody who has heard her songs (even if only the legends CDs) knows how versatile she is. This post has been edited by hildebrand: Jan 8 2009, 12:55 AM Best Regards

Everybody who has heard her songs (even if only the legends CDs) knows how versatile she is. Can't agree with you more on this. Its people like you and me need to spread the word around (in whichever possible way) and let people know about this singer. That is what the exact intention of our website and also the book by Haimanti ji. In the preface of the book itself, the author has written these things in bold (obviously you and me know these facts, but a general music fan would not know) Geeta's career never started or ended with Guru Dutt She was an established (one among the top) singers when she married Guru Dutt She sang about 1500 songs, which are much more than 50 odd songs she sang for Guru Dutt's films She sang a lot more songs for most of the major composers of her era than her songs for OP and SD Parag Please visit www.geetadutt.com
