  Lyrics and composition:  Lalit Shastri Vocals : Eles Genre:  Soulful Acoustic / Folk-Pop Ballad Duration:  3:16 Rating:  ★★★★☆ (4.6/5)   Click & Play - My Guitar, My Love A Love Letter in Song: Where Strings Speak and Silence Sings In a world saturated with synthetic hooks and overproduced pop, “My Guitar, My Love” arrives like a breath of raw, heartfelt air. Written and composed by Lalit Shastri , the track is an evocative acoustic ballad that transforms a guitar from a musical instrument into a living, breathing embodiment of love, sensuality, and companionship.

Launching the 1999 election campaign in Madhya Pradesh, where the Congress party was in power and Digvijay Singh was the Chief Minister, the then national President of the BJP, Kushabhau Thakre, had said at a press conference at the State BJP headquarters in Bhopal that Madhya Pradesh had become a haven for arms smuggling. He had even stated categorically that arms were being supplied to the terrorists in Kashmir from this State. A couple of days after the BJP President had addressed media-persons in the State capital, the then Home Minister L K Advani had addressed another press conference at the VIP Rest House at Lalghati in B...
