Not an ardent follower of Punjabi, I admit I listen to more Tamil music. But since there's no thread on Punjabi music, this thread is honor of my mother tongue. My first post is a song that I grew up listening and it is a song based a mother and daughter relationship. This rendition is by Jaspinder Narula while the original version is by Surrinder Kaur, who I can't forget as she was the first artist I saw at a concert.

Nice thread Sunil. Never heard Punjabi songs. Please continue and should be so special to you as it is your mother tongue.

Thanks I hope to expose the less familiar punjabi songs which get overshadowed by stereotypical bollywood/punjabi songs and the new generation of bhangra which doesn't depict the rural, meaningful folk and full emotion of punjab, in it's true essence.

Yes, I got to know some songs due to some Bollywood movies, but I know they were not truly depicting the culture, tradition of Punjab, just making it commercial. Good that you are here with us and we are in for a treat.

Gurdas Mann is performing today at the Royal Albert hall in London. I had the chance to visit one of his concerts.

Sunil,
Listened to first two songs. Brilliant. The one by Hans raj Hans was truly moving. His voice is very seductive. Thanks for opening my punjabi account. When hearing these songs, it reminds me of my trip from Gujarat to Haryana (I assume they too speak punjabi). From Gujarat to Dehli by train and from Delhi to Kurukshetra by bus, through the historical Panipet hearing those punjabi songs in the bus. I got down at panipet just to have a glimpse of the town. Can't forget that trip. Kurukshetra is again one memorable place. Eventhough I only stayed for one night (for one REC interview), those people, streets and daabas. Lovely! Let me hear the other songs today.
