Patli Gali Aana Lyrics Translation | Talvar

Movie: Talvar
Music: Vishal Bhardwaj
Lyrics: Gulzar
Singer: Sukhwinder Singh
Music Label: T-Series

This is a satirical number that talks about the system with a lot of metaphors. There are puns and idiomatic usages as well. The 'patli gali' here is the police and judiciary, where once caught, one doesn't seem to find a way out, and that's probably the reason it's called patli gali — narrow street — here. If you see the song in the movie, you'll probably be able to make a lot more sense than if you listen to it stand alone. But do listen to it anyway, so that you know the words well when you see the film. A gem from the old trio of Gulzar, VB and Sukhiji.
