Aisa Des Hai Mera

I know that you’ve waited patiently for another Bollywood-related post.  Believe it or not, it’s been over two months since I last wrote about anything of the kind.  So, here is a nice patriotic song from Veer-Zaara.  Razib Khan will be pleased that I have stopped fixating on Bengali actresses.

P.S. As a bonus, here is an old one from Gambler: Dil Aaj Shayar Hai.  Another classic, Aye Dil E Nadan, is here.  Along the patriotic lines of Aisa Des Hai Mera, here is Des Rangeela from Fanaa.

P.P.S.  While I’m at it, I can’t leave out a note about Armenian.  It will not be much of a surprise to find out that the two languages have virtually identical demonstratives meaning “this” (ays and aisa), but it is an interesting thing to note in passing.
