Phoolon Ka Taaron Ka To Tenu Sang Rakhna: 7 Songs To Play For Your Sibling On Raksha Bandhan
Phoolon Ka Taaron Ka Can there be any better song to start the list of Raksha Bandhan special tracks than this evergreen classic? We think not. This timeless song from the 1971 film Hare Rama Hare Krishna remains the most cherished song for Raksha Bandhan celebrations. Sung by the legendary Kishore Kumar, Phoolon Ka Taron Ka is a soothing and pleasing song to celebrate the sibling bond. Bhaiyya Mere Rakhi Ke Bandhan Ko This is another Bollywood song without which Raksha Bandhan feels incomplete. Sung by Lata Mangeshkar, this is a soulful track from the movie Chhoti Bahen. In the song, a sister emotionally requests her brother to honour the sacred thread, reminding him of the importance of their lifelong bond. The simplicity and depth of the song with Lata Mangeshkar's soul-stirring voice make it a Rakhi staple. Dhaagon Se Bandhaa Bollywood dropped another song that captures the traditional and emotional depth of the festival beautifully. Crooned by Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal, the song is from Akshay Kumar's 2022 movie Raksha Bandhan. The heart-wrenching lyrics, blending love, trust, and lifelong commitment, increase the festival's depth, and you just can't stop listening to it on loop. Tenu Sang Rakhna The soulful track, from the film Jigra, beautifully narrates the selfless love and fierce protectiveness every brother and sister shares. Widely praised for its soulful composition and touching lyrics, Tenu Sang Rakhna features Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina. Reflecting on the unbreakable sibling bond, the song depicts the unwavering devotion of a sister or brother to shield their sibling from life's struggles or stand by them completely. Behna Ne Bhai Ki Kalai Se You just can't miss this song during the auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan. Sung by Suman Kalyanpur and written by Indiwar, the melodious track beautifully captures the sister's love and protection for her brother as she ties the holy thread. The track, featured in the 1974 film Resham Ki Dor, which starred Dharmendra and Saira Banu, was composed by Shankar Jaikishan. This festive song, from the film Anpadh, is a vibrant celebration of Raksha Bandhan with bright emotions and traditional warmth. Lata Mangeshkar lent her vocals to the song, making it even more special. Rang Birangi Rakhi Lekar paints the joy of the festival in rich musical colours, reminding sisters of their passion to buy the best rakhi for their brothers. Pyaara Bhaiya Mera

Meet Kishore Kumar's granddaughter, who is as beautiful as any Bollywood heroine, stays away from glitz and glamour, works as a…, she is…
Whenever the children of Bollywood stars and singers enter the limelight, fans expect them to make a name for themselves in the entertainment world. However, many star kids neither liked glamour nor did they dream of making a name for themselves in the industry. One of these star kids is the granddaughter of legendary singer Kishore Kumar. Meet Kishore Kumar's granddaughter Ameet Kumar may have followed in the footsteps of his father Kishore Kumar, but his granddaughter neither carried forward her grandfather's legacy nor entered the world of entertainment. Let's see the list of fields in which Vrienda Ganguly has become an expert, apart from her grandfather Kishore Kumar and father Ameet. What does Kishore Kumar's granddaughter Vrienda do for a living? Kishore Kumar, who gave many great songs to Hindi cinema, has two granddaughters, Muktika and Vrienda Ganguly. While his first granddaughter, Muktika, is making a name for herself in the music industry like her grandfather Kishore and father Amit Kumar, and is carrying forward their music legacy, Vrienda has no connection with the entertainment world. According to a report in The Times of India, Vrienda, who has recently come into the limelight, is the elder daughter of singer Amit Kumar, a well-known tarot card reader, physical healer, and spiritual mentor. She runs her own YouTube channel, Vreevolution, where she inspires people on various topics, ranging from love to life purpose and financial problems. She has 6000 subscribers on YouTube. Took acting training with Shah Rukh Khan Kishore Kumar's granddaughter Vrienda may be far from the world of acting, but she has complete knowledge of the art of acting. She has taken her acting lessons from the same John Barry Acting School, which has produced kings of the industry like Shah Rukh Khan. Despite learning acting, Kishore Kumar's granddaughter never tried her hand at films. Since 2017, she is focusing only on astrology and tarot card reading. She guides people in their life challenges and decisions. Kishore Kumar's granddaughter is very beautiful It is very difficult to take your eyes off the beauty of Kishore Kumar's granddaughter Vrienda Ganguly. In terms of beauty with brains, Vrienda gives tough competition to big actresses like Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, and Priyanka Chopra. Apart from YouTube, Tarot Card Reader Vrienda Ganguly has around 5 thousand followers on Facebook. Where her bio says, 'I will help you find your path in life, love life, financial future, etc., through Tarot Card Reading'. She is also on Instagram, but her account there is private.

Not a singer or an actress, but this superstar's granddaughter became a tarot reader, she once trained with Shah Rukh Khan, her name is...
In a world where legacy often writes your path, Vrinda Ganguly chose to break away. While her grandfather Kishore Kumar ruled Bollywood's golden era with hits in both acting and singing, and her father Amit Kumar carried forward the family's musical heritage, Vrinda walked off the stage — quite literally. She's not a playback singer, not an actress, and doesn't chase the spotlight. She reads energies instead — as a tarot card expert and spiritual mentor. And no, this wasn't a fallback career. It was a conscious choice. What was her connection to Bollywood? Vrinda's Bollywood link isn't just by blood. She trained at Barry John's acting studio — the same place that gave India Shah Rukh Khan. Technically, that makes her SRK's junior. But the arc shifted. In 2017, she decided she didn't want the screen. She wanted silence, intuition, and a space far removed from film sets. So what does she do now? Today, Vrinda Ganguly runs her own YouTube channel — VriEvolution . With a modest but growing base of subscribers, she shares tarot insights, spiritual guidance, and healing practices. Her presence spills onto Instagram and Facebook, where her aura speaks louder than legacy. And no — she isn't hidden in robes or clichés. Friends say she looks no less than any actress, but that isn't her calling. Tarot is. What about her family? Vrinda is the elder daughter of Amit Kumar. While her younger sister Muktika chose music, Vrinda took a path the family never expected — yet fully embraced. She's Kishore Kumar's granddaughter, but more importantly, she's her own person. In a world chasing fame, she chose inner fire. While most star kids run toward the arc lights, Vrinda turned inward. And maybe that's what makes her story quietly iconic — in a way Kishore Kumar would've probably smiled at.
