Few of you would know that singing is one of my passion and it was one very emotional moments when in 10th Standard, I practiced with my group to sing in front of the whole school ” Aye mere watan ke logon” . The practice sessions went fine but when I actually stood up to sing with my team, the starting went well but in the middle of the song, I could feel the lyrics right to my bones.. and emotions started pouring out of me..
It was like I was in the song and I was fighting for my country and as a soldier I was conveying the words.. I was in tears at the end.. it was so overwhelming..
I cannot tell you how it affected me.. but yes till date, this is the song which stir waves and waves of patriotism.. and I am glad I discovered this song when I did…
Kudos to Lataji who can still bring out tears with this song…
So heres to you my country !! 
I am proud to be one of the many Indians here…
“Composed by C. Ramchandra and lyrics by Pradeep. When in 1962 Lata Mangeshkar sang this patriotic song, it moved Pundit Jawarlal Nehru, the Indian Prime Minister, to tears. …”
Watched the Phir Mile Sur Mera Tumhara Video.. must say it was a nice one..
