Weekend

This weekend also, I am continuing with singers of golden era of hindi film music, and this week I am covering two of finest singers whose voice had, you can say, a silken touch. They created the place for themselves among the stalwarts like Mohd Rafi, Mukesh and Kishore Kumar and gave some wonderful songs to the music lovers. They are Talat Mehmood and Hemant Kumar who were unique and different in their own style.
