An Evening in Gay Maharashtra

The composer was a Parsi gentleman called Mina Kava and the singer was Miss Parveen Vachha. The song has a sixties flavor, when the word gay still meant 'Bright and pleasant or promoting a feeling of cheer'.

@goldwinfonseca Hi, made a few inquires and found out, the original was ripped from a HMV 35 rpm vinyl record. Therefore you will have to contact HMV for any permission.

@bearbombay .....you are very welcome...its heart touching and fond memoriesof the good old times and from myside am glad to see that our young generation seem a little bit more open to the world as communication has made the difference and today a lot of the students have the international experience not so common 20 years ago. Bombay or Mumbai....a rose by any other name.....
