The Frisking Song



Music can connect people like nothing else can. Even people who are together,momentarily for a very impersonal and non-emotional task. Frisking. Yes Frisking. I witnessed an interesting incident at the security check on Mumbai airport today. Just after my security check was over, the passenger behind me stood in front of the guard. He started humming the timeless melody "Na tum hume Jano.” That brought out the musical self of the guard out and he started singing too. The duet was audible to almost every one standing around.

The guard and the passenger looked at each other and gained senses only after the first stanza was over. The onlookers were  enjoying the scene. As I was collecting my Laptop I couldn't help saying "Bahot Khoob  !! Kya baat hai !! ".Life is what we make of it .The guest was checked and he disappeared in the crowd of strangers gifting a small memorable moment to all those who could be a part of this simple pleasure.
