Hindi Film Geet Kosh (Where can I buy in UK)

[Jav]

I am based in the UK and would be grateful if someone can please tell
me of a place where I can purchase the Hind Film Geet Kosh by Hamraz
Har Mandir Singh. It can be either an actual store or an online store
with delivery to UK.

Can anyone help?

Unfortunately, not at this time. Plans are under way to produce
non-Hindi editions.

I guess Dr. Singh, it would be best to clarify that the current edition
is a bi-lingual one -
and IMHO, enough English for those not too comfortable with Hindi
(such as Yours Truly), and enough Hindi so as not to dilute the sheer
pleasure of reading the masterpiece and appreciating the information
presented therein - appreciating it in the right perspective.
In his foreword, Hamraaz Sahib has also put forth the operational
reasons for the same. Even had it not been so,
it would have been a very important decision on the part of Hamraaz-Sahib -
which would have taken a lot of time to decide,
and no amount of admiration would suffice for reaching out to a larger
audience with this !

With warm regards,
Sumantra.
