Roz Roz Dali Dali - Angoor by Asha Bhosle

Roz Roz Dali Dali - Angoor is one of those rare Hindi tracks that manages to feel both fresh and familiar the moment it begins. R.D. Burman's arrangement gives the track a layered quality that rewards repeated listening.

The performance by Asha Bhosle is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. On screen, Sanjeev Kumar, Moushumi Chatterjee, Deven Varma, Deepti Naval, Aruna Irani, Ram Mohan bring the emotional world of the song to life in a way that enhances rather than competes with the music.

1982 was a strong year for Hindi music, and Roz Roz Dali Dali - Angoor was among the reasons why. There is no right time to listen to Roz Roz Dali Dali - Angoor. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

Running to 4:00, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Hindi in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
