When I Grow Up (Look-Look)
by Gulzar
Category: Poetry

A delightful new collection from the master lyricist After the great success of 100 Lyrics, this new volume contains a hundred more of Gulzar’s marvellous compositions, complete with anecdotes and photographs making it a true collector’s item. Gulzar has brought a rare poetic sensibility to popular Hindi film music over a five-decade-long career, and this collection showcases some of his best work, from early lyrics like ‘Ganga aaye kahan se’ (Kabuliwala) and ‘Koi hota jisko apna’ (Mere Apne) to classics such as ‘Tere bina jiya jaye na’ (Ghar), ‘Do naina aur ek kahani’ (Masoom) and ‘Roz roz ankhon taley’ (Jeeva) and later blockbusters like ‘Goli maar bheje mein’ (Satya), ‘Beedi jalai le’ (Omkara), ‘Dhan te nan’ (Kaminey), ‘Dil toh bachcha hai ji’ (Ishqiya), ‘Challa’ (Jab Tak Hai Jaan) and ‘Bismil’ (Haider). In addition, Another 100 Lyrics contains some brilliant poems from non-film albums like Dil Padosi Hai, Marasim, Ishqa Ishqa and Koi Baat Chale.
