Sharda – Kisi Ke Dil Ko Sanam (Kal Aaj Aur Kal, 1971)

An ornate waltz festooned with nutty strings and an accordion, composed by Shankar Jaikishan. Despite being a favorite of Shankar, Sharda was never able to reach the top bracket of singers in India, a failure she attributes to dirty politics. Still, she had the distinction of being the only college graduate among the female singers of the era. Lata didn’t even get her GED!
