Simple questions - no answers

Its no secret that I am rather fond of old hindi movie songs. After only a few times when an old song was playing on TV, and Sid was told, "yeh mumma ka song hai", he also imbibed this fact. Thereafter, whenever an old song comes up, Sid states, "yeh mumma ka song aa raha hai" (though how he makes a distinction, we have absolutely no idea).

Yesterday evening I was sitting alone in the TV room, and Sid was playing and running about. He came into the room, noticed "Kajrare" playing, only for a moment, and told me, "Ye to aapka song nahin hai!".

I borrowed his favorite phrase, and asked "To kya hua?"
He replied, as a matter-of-fact, "Phir kyun dekh rahe ho?"

Sid: This is not your song
Me: So what?
Sid: Then why are you watching it?
