Punjabi Songs In Hindi Movies Options

[deewani]

This is also a remnant of the former desiboard, started by a wonderful user named bm99 with contributions from other members, feel free to add on. The idea was

to make a list of Punjabi songs featured in Hindi movies. Meaning that the songs either have a similar melody to traditional Punjabi songs, have Punjabi boliyaan, etc.

........or even have a line or two of Punjabi in them.

Hi
I glanced at your list and did not see some prominent songs of the 1950's like'Main koi jhooth bolia' (MD Salil Chaudhury)from Jaagte Raho.Also 'Naya Daur'(MD O.P.Nayyar) had Punjabi type Hindi/Urdu songs like'Yeh desh hai veer jawano ka' 'Reshmi salwar kurta jaali ka'and 'Uden jab jab zulfen teri' all written by Sahir Ludhianvi.To name a few other films Shanker Jaikishan's "Ujala' 'Kanhaiya'and 'New Delhi', Naushad's 'Sohni Mahiwal' and many more movies with music by O.P. Nayyar had Punjabi type songs.I am not sure if 'Naach' is a movie from 40's or 50;s but it had a mostly Punjabi song 'wat takkun main teri kothe chadke aaja merey balma bahana karke' sung by Suraiya (MD Husn Lal; Bhagat Ram).I think there are numerous other songs from the 40;s, 50;s and 60's that could be added to this list.By the way I am really impressed with your knowledge of Punjabi songs in particular and of Punjabi culture and Punjabiyat in general.Please continue providing us with all the information and sources related to Punjabi.Harjinder

You have just named some of my very favorites (as seen here) and they are on my list, but I have only reached songs starting with "B" yet...... I wanted to post until "G" yesterday but the board was not cooperating with me and would not even let me post the rest of the "B's" in one topic, I'm not sure if the maximum size for a post has been reduced recently or not, or if it was a glitch. Anyways, thanks for the nice words. I am grateful for your input, please don't stop adding to this list. Today I got to "L", more later...

Punjabi vaare ki bolan? Jadh main chhoti si taan Ma Pe ghar de vich sirf English bolde si, navein navein aaye si India taun, unna nu eis tarah English taan aagayi si par assi (bacche) Punjabi bilkul ney jaande si. Haan, thoda thoda samajh lende si, par bilkul bol ney sagde si. Jadon saade rishtedaar aaye India taun, udon Punjabi sikhni padi unna naal gal baat karn vaste (udon main das saal di si). Absos taan eis gal di ae ke Hindi vi bol sagdi thay Punjabi vi, par awaaz de vich safai bilkul ney. Aaj kal loki jaande ke bacche dono zubaana sikh sagde asaani de naal, shukar hai ke aaj kal de bacche nu changi tarah sikhaya jaanda. Saade wangu ney bolde. Gurmukhi taan main khudi apne aap nu sikhaya. Unna dina'ch Punjabi school taan door, roti banaun vaste atta vi mushkil naal milda si. Baaqi jo kuch sikhaya, gaane sun sun ke sikhaya, lol.
