Good old 'rom' had offered to send me the First-Day Cover of the stamps issued in tribute to the legends. When I mentioned to Priya that I need to give him my address in India to send it to, she came up with a cover for me!

One can understand the ommission of Manna Dey since he was the only singer who was still alive when this set of 4 stamps wes brought out. The ommission of Talat mahmood was in real bad taste. Incidently I am not unermining Mahendra Kapoor in any manner. He too gave us many memorable songs from late 50s onwards. Pradeep |

Pradeep Fully agree with you; Talat-sahab belongs to the pantheon of great singers and fully merits the honour. For that matter, Lala-ji has been honoured with the Bharat Ratna, but doesn't Asha-ji deserve at least a Padma Shri? ![]() As for Manna Dey and Mahendra Kapoor, I guess living persons are not honoured with the issuance of stamps. Can anyone clarify: was a postage stamp issued in honour of K. L. Saigal? If you stop trying to make sense of it all, you'll be less confused. Reality is an illusion.

I believe one has been issued in honour of Pankaj Mullick as well as B.N.Sircar (Legendary owner of New Theatres) too. Pradeep |

Well it does not surprise me as I found out that many people consider the modulations in Talat Saab's voice to be shaky quivering!!! ![]() ![]() .....not many consider Talat to be among the greatests!!! But to me he is at the same level of Hemant and Rafi!!! who are my topmost among male play-backs in Hindi cinema......But I guess democracy rules!!! Bappa |
