�Indi... Hindustan, you boom boom with Pakistan.�

�Raj Kapoor?� we prompted helpfully.
�Yes, yes, Raj Kapoor!� A wide smile lighted up his portly face. Then he tried to recall the notes of a song he had heard long ago. It had to be �Mein Awara Hoon�. So once again we helped him remember. His smile widened. At that moment, it seemed our pop music is our best export."
