The Sound of Music




Yet another classic. Done to death in Hindi Cinema with Jeetendra and Jaya Bhaduri and the lord alone knows in how many other versions in other languages in India. But nothing to beat Julie Andrews, as she strums ''Do re mi" - that taught millions of Indians that there was another world outside "sa re ga ma"...
I went to see the Von Trapp castle in Vermont, where they resettled after they escaped from the Nazis in Austria. In the same valley, is Rudyard Kipling's home.
