Gunjan Utreja: At this point of time there is something else meant to be that is another performance from you from your album Maahi. Toh yeh kausa gaana hoga?
Lavanya Padmanabhan: There is a song called Na ja piya, it is actually a romantic song bahot hi khubsoorat, based on a very R and B kind of a mahol. Yeh gaana jab compose ho raha tha, I have very interesting to share with you.
Gunjan Utreja : Please.
0:25 Lavanya Padmanabhan: Is ke joh paragraph the, they were actually in a different tune, ya the original tune was something else and uske baad Munna Dhiman ji he is the one who has written for this.
Gunjan Utreja: Ofcourse I know him, he is my super senior in Chandigarh.
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Yes he is in Chandigarh.
Gunjan Utreja : From the department of Indian Theatre Punjab University.
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Kya baath hai. Toh Munna ji ne char gaane likhe hai is album mein.
Gunjan Utreja : Munna bhai bahot magician hai.. I know, I know.
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Absolutely. So the magician wrote something and sent it,it was already set to the tune aur hum record karne ja rahe hai. Hari ji ka achanak phone aata hai, iska na paragraph mein mujhe mazza nahi aaraha hai. He is sitting in Bombay, I am in Chennai trying to record, Munna ji is in Chandigarh. Acchanak bol rahe, yeh tune mein patta nahi mujhe itna convincing nahi lag raha hai, give me ten minutes I will call you back. Ten minutes mein wapas phone kiya and then he goes...yeh tha da ri da.... Da ri da was already there and I go ok Hari ji but the words we have, nahi nahi woh words bait jayege, theek hai tu koshish karna hogayega. I put the phone down, I sang the words and they just sat. it was just there, matlab magic to another level. Ki main soch rahi hoon ki tune badal gaya phir bhi words baite hai. Ek toh I must say salutes to Munna ji for writing something like that and salutes to Hari ji ki woh samaj paye ki yeh tune mein bhi words aagayege, don't worry.
Gunjan Utreja: Kya baath hai, mark of a legend actually.
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Absolutely and then we went on and recorded this.
Gunjan Utreja: So you recorded it?
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Yes.
Gunjan Utreja: So its time you perform the same.
Lavanya Padmanabhan: Lets go for it.
Gunjan Utreja: Lets take a short break but I am going to leave you with this beautiful song Na Ja Piya from Lavanya's album Maahi.
2:09 Lavanya Padmanabhan:
Na ja piya na ja, oh piya na ja (2)
Koi bhi bulaye, saathiya na ja
Chotey hai dishaaiye kahi bhi na ja
Suno kahi dil pyaar na ja
Na ja piya na ja, oh piya na ja (2)
Kya hai woh jiske khatir daud ke tum chale ho (2)
Yeh bhi toh sochlo na chod ke kya chale ho
Sun le phir khilda phir khilda ho raha dobara
Yeh dil phir na shayad ho banjara sa
Piya na ja, thum ja, rook ja.
Na ja piya na ja
Na piya na ja
Na ja piya na ja, oh piya na ja
Na ja, piya, na ja na tu oh piya piya piya
Na ja piya
Na ja na tu oh piya oh piya
