In these hot and humid days, here's a nice thought...'mausam hai thanda thanda..'. I don't know many songs based on sporting events...just a couple on 'hu tu tu'. This song is about a bunch of women playing 'gilli danda' and how much they enjoy it.

Particularly interesting are the lyrics which talk about this game being the 'grandfather' of all games and also imparts this game a touch of violence (saamne jo aayega, woh chith jayega). Doesn't sound like the game I knew, growing up:-) 

This is an average song, salvaged by Lata's sweet voice and a good use of the chorus. Once again, my apologies for missing words..
