There does not seem to be any "Play Song" feature.

That portion (download/play) is under construction...

Actually there is. Click on Professional Career. There are links to
her Hindi film work, her Hindi non-film work and her regional output
(look for the "here" keywords). The navigation to these links is
slighly unintuitive...

Commendable effort.

Seems that the first 5 paragraphs on the Website page titled "Geeta
Dutt and Hemant Kumar" (http://www.geetadutt.com/hkumar.html) are
plagiarized from an article on my Hemant-da Website that I wrote in
1996 (http://faculty.ist.unomaha.edu/pdasgupta/hemanta/articles/
parexcel.html).

There are some songs missing in the Bengali list. The list seems to be
limited to songs that were re-issued on CD/CS in the 90s.

Prithviraj ji

First of all we are extremely sorry if this write up on Hemantda has
rubbed you the wrong way. Our intention in making this site is to have
a compilation of information about our beloved singer Geeta ji and her
association with the composers and co-singers of the golden era of
HFM. We have been thinking of the site as a combination of compilation
work and some new pieces of information.

On our acknoweldgement page, we have thanked the entire internet
community for the information which was available for us.
http://geetadutt.com/acknowledge.html

At this point in time, we do not have the right technical sources to
edit the page on Hemantda as singer. Still we are trying to get some
help from a friend. We will try to remove the portion which was
inspired from your article.

Once again, we are extremely sorry.

Dear Parag-bhai,

Please don't think I was offended ("rubbed the wrong way") by your
Website or its material. I wrote that it was a commendable effort. If
you need any help from me on anything, just drop me an email at the
address above. When I find the time, I'd be glad to be of any help, if
possible and required.

That said, you (all) should make sure that any portion of your Website
that is quoted/used verbatim from another source (even HFGK for
instance), is properly attributed. Maybe the profession that I work in
makes me paranoid about this, but I believe proper citation is always
a good idea to avoid future problems.

A good efforts to put huge informations on net.
Here, i came to know that Kanu Roy was not related with Geeta Dutt-
popular belief was they were brother-sister. but it is not true.
A photograph of Mukul Roy is found abscent- a person who has
contributed largly to upload this site and brother of Geta Dutt.

We relentlessly searched for a pic of composer Mukul Roy, brother of
Geeta ji. Even the information available on him is so little. We could
put it together and here is a small write-up on Mukul ji

http://geetadutt.com/brother.html

I am giving the link since our navigations are not so good at this
point in time. We are in the process of improving on this design.

Anyone having pic(s) of Mukul Roy ji, please email them at
geetad...@gmail.com.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best Regards
Geeta Dutt fans team

Dear Prithviraj ji

Yes of course we understand that you did appreciate the little tribute
we have done in the memory of Geeta ji. Thank you so much for that. I
will surely get in touch with you. We understand that there are many
issues with the site and it needs a new design, all sections to work
and more details need to be added at almost all the places. Thanks
once again.

As an immediate measure, we have modified the content on Hemantda's
page now. We will surely adopt this simple policy of citing the
sources of information on all the pages when we upgrade the site. This
is indeed a good suggestion.

It will be great if you can help us in spreading the word around about
the site www.geetadutt.com I understand that the more sites/blogs give
link to our site, the better chances of it being found on search
engines.

Thanks once again

Best Regards

Parag
(On behalf of Geeta Dutt fans team)

Carry on folks. Someone, atleast, has come up with long-awaited
website. Good effort. Gradually people(read Geeta fans) will come to
know about
website and you will be blessed with photos and other items you wish
to include there.

Dear Parag,

I appreciate your mail. I noted that the content of your Geeta-Hemant
page has been changed. I also noted that the contents of the Geeta-
Hemant page is now a para-phrasing/verbatim of the Wikipedia article
on HemantK (which again was written by yours truly).

All this is fine with me - I'm not offended by this, and this is going
to be my last message on this topic. After all, it's your Website and
it's entirely up to you how you choose to conduct it. But I hope that
you take to heart the "due credit where required" note when it is
appropriate.

Overall, you've made a good effort in creating the Website and I wish
you the best in maintaining/updating it.

-Prithviraj
