An Indian Morning celebrates not only the music of India but equally its various arts and artisans, poets and potters, kings and patriots. The first 30 minutes of the program features classical, religious as well as regional and popular music. The second one hour features community announcements and ear pleasing music from old/new & popular Indian films. The ethos of the program is summarized by its signature closing line, "Seeking the spirit of India, Jai Hind". Shiva Tandava Stotram (शिवताण्डवस्तोत्रम्) is a hymn of praise in the Hindu tradition that describes Shiva's power and beauty. Both the fourth and fifth quatrains of this hymn conclude with lists of Shiva's epithets as destroyer, even the destroyer of death itself. Happy Shivratri..!!! :) 'शिव ताण्डव स्तोत्र' महान विद्वान एवं परम शिवभक्त लंकाधिपति रावण द्वारा विरचित भगवान शिव का बहुत चमत्कारी स्तोत्र है। रावण ने शिव की स्तुति कर उन्हें प्रसन्न करने के लिए इन श्लोकों का पाठ किया था। रावण की इस तपस्या से शिव प्रसन्न हुए थे। आप भी श्रावण मास के पवित्र अवसर पर अवश्‍य पढ़ें यह पाठ— 01-SHIV TANDAV STOTRAM CD MISC-20190728 TRACK#01 6:30 DIVINE CHANTS OF SHIVA-2007; UMA MOHAN; TRADITIONAL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMBKmQEPNzI एक बार फिर हार्दिक अभिनंदन आप सबका, शुक्रिया, घन्यवाद और Thank You इस प्रोग्राम को सुनने के लिए। Monsoon is here and with the pitter-patter of raindrops, it brings with it a feeling of happiness, a cool breeze, and nature drenched in rain. Lush, green, and alive — monsoon is a sight. This beautiful form of nature has been used extensively in cinema; monsoon in Bollywood stands for passion, romance, drama, intensity, and poetry. Expressing Indian cinema’s larger-than-life aspect, rain is one of the most loved props of storytelling in Bollywood. Though music is a very personal choice, we are sure the love for these classic rain songs of Bollywood is universal. Pyaar hua iqraar hua, Shree 420 (1955) When you hear the name of this song, the unforgettable imagery of Raj Kapoor and Nargis sharing an umbrella on a rainy evening, flashes to mind.

Composed by music directors Shankar-Jaikishan and lyrics written by Shailendra. 02-PYAR HUA IQRAR HUA CD MISC-20190714 TRACK#02 4:37 CHORI CHORI-1955; MANNA DEY, LATA MANGESHKAR; SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN; SHAILENDRA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXLzfldeDcM Ek ladki bheegi bhaagi si, Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi (1958) It is raining endlessly, and a car breaks down, a damsel in distress steps out (Madhubala).
