When he was staying in a hotel in Kathmandu, Salil heard one of the night guards humming a beautiful Nepaleese folk song. He learnt it from him and the result is "Chhotaa sa ghar hogaa"
Song# NK6 is the slow version of song# NK1 and it's quite short. It was not even in the film. However, it's a wonderful lullaby version sung by Hemant.
A collector's piece.
