Poet-lyricist Gulzar said Thursday Rabindranath Tagore's 'Ekla Chalo Re' remains his most favourite song though he loves to listen all other songs of the Bard with whom he feels connected at every moment.
Gulzar, who penned the script of the Hindi light and sound show 'Yeh Baat Yaad Rakhna' on Tagore's life and work, told PTI after the inauguration of the show at Tagore's birth place Jorasanko in north Kolkata, "I love to hear all the songs of Gurudev. But 'Ekla Chalo Re' remains my most favourite."
Sabyasachi Basu Ray Chaudhury, Vice-Chancellor of Rabindra Bharati University, which was organising the show for public, said, "Once Gulzar saab showed interest in penning the Hindi script we sent the Bengali script of the current light and sound show to him in last June and he took just two weeks to write a wonderful script in Hindi which bore his hall mark as a poet."
