Website

After the success of sites in the memory of legendary artists Asha Bhonsle ji, Kishore Kumar ji and Mohd Rafi ji, this is the fourth presentation from HF board. The Geeta Dutt fans team is involved in the building of the site.

This was the banner we posted on Hamara Forums the day we launched our website.

There are many circumstances when life will deal unfair cards to us. Geeta Ji’s life was one such. She had so much to give and yet, it all was cut short by so many reasons. After a long a time, it is nice to do something to keep her memory alive…and an effort to make others realize the beautiful numbers she sang…in so many different languages and to bring back some memories and reminiscences of those golden times.
Truly a tribute befitting the Girl with the Golden Voice !!

“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.”

Truly befitting as She gave so much happiness to millions of people all round the world and definitely deserves immortality. That is just the inspiration.

Hamara Forums has given all of us this “once in a life time” opportunity to do something meaningful in the life. We always live for ourselves and be happy about it. Here we have one of the most talented artist, who passed away at a tender age of 41. This was more than 35 years ago and sadly very few people know about her.

So here is our tribute to showcase her talent to the world. The team does not claim that every thing will be original work or will be the best. This is just the begining of what we want to do. We want more and more people to help us so that we can make this site a great place to know about Geeta Dutt, the one singer who never got her due.

Her voice was with us when we were Happy – when we were Sad – when we wanted some Peace of mind – when we felt Love in our life – we we felt the pain of seperation from our loved one’s…. her songs lifted us from gratest of depressions…. and more than that multiplied our Happiness infintly with her voice….

We know that Rome was not bulit in one day (and neither by one person). We are so lucky to have so many music lovers helping us in various ways in this “Dream project”. We feel that Geetaji’s voice has touched and enthralled millions of music lovers. We hope that this site will help the future generations to know more about Geetaji. The memories of Geetaji and her songs will remain in all music lover’s minds forever.

On the behalf of the Geeta Dutt fans team, we thank Hamara Forums board for giving us the opportunity to pay this small tribute to the legendary singer Geeta ji. Its been a true labour of love for all of us.

Yaad karoge, yaad karoge, ek din hum ko yaad karoge……..

And truly not a single day hass passed in this world of music that someone did not remember Geeta Roy Dutt,the most vibrant of our playback singers!

Why this Website and Blog?

Our website
These are not just a website or blog. Earlier it was a distant dream. But our hard toil proved that “Where there is a will, there is a way”. Nothing is impossible. The project plan for the site was started way back in the year 2005 and it took more than 3 years to see the light of the day.

It is amazing to see that it started with a thread opened in Mohd Rafi forum on our parent site HF (because there was no Geeta Dutt sub-forum created at that time) and now we have a full-fledged website dedicated to this legendary artist.

Fate was not in favor of Geetaji, it snatched away her career and life. But still she lives in our memories with her golden voice. We can preserve her songs, photos, and other information for the coming generations through this website. HF has given all of us this “once in a life time” opportunity to do something meaningful in the life. We always live for ourselves and be happy about it. Here we have one of the most talented artists, who passed away at a tender age of 41. This was more than 35 years ago and sadly very few people know about her.

So here is our tribute to showcase her talent to the world. The team does not claim that everything will be original work or will be the best. This is just the beginning of what we want to do. We want more and more people to help us so that we can make this site a great place to know about Geeta Dutt, the one singer who rarely got her due.

We will continue to keep her fans updated with latest information on Geeta ji.
