India is home to almost every religion in the world, each practised by its own set of believers. But two religions are practised, indeed celebrated, by all Indians across the length and breadth of the country all the time … cricket and cinema.

Indian cinema is 100 years old. 105 years, to be exact, since Dadasaheb Phalke made India’s first full length silent film Raja Harishchandra in 1913.

Sound entered the silent movie when Ardeshir Irani made India’s first talkie film Alam Ara in 1931.

Sound brought into movies that magical potent, that elixir craved for by entertainment seeking audiences of all ages, all classes … . . MUSIC!

This book showcases some of Bollywood’s immortal music melodies from 1950 to 2010 that have stood the test of Time. And the people behind them.

Come, let’s take a trip DOWN BOLLYWOOD STREET, ON MELODY BEAT!
