It is often said that the human mind is the most complex since it is the source of all our thoughts and behaviour. Beyond that, it is also the source of a person’s imagination, perception, consciousness and judgement.

There have been several songs in Marathi and Hindi that have been written to project the intricacies of the human mind. The show had several Marathi and Hindi songs such as ‘mana tuze manogat’, ‘man manas umagat nahi’, ‘man ha mogara arpuni ishwara’, ‘maze man tuze jhale’, ‘mayechya halavya’, ‘man re tu kahe naa dheer dhare’, ‘Man kyun bahaka re bahaka’ .Dr. Rajendra Barwe, a well-renowned psychologist joyfully listened to the singers perform on stage as he was himself present there to answer questions asked by the interviewer.
