Shammi Kapoor - His Movies & His Songs

Shammi Kappor has been in the movie industry for a very very long time. He first appeared in 1953 in "Thokar" when he was 22. Since then he acted in over 130 movies. Though he struggled initially as an actor, after marrying another actress (Geetabali), his life changed forever under her able guidance. From a commercial also ran to he became a sought after atcor.

I am starting this new series on Shammi. I have many of his movies in CDs. I am missing some of them from his early years, and may be one or two from the later years. I would like to share these songs with you in coming months and invite the members to share any missing songs to complete the albums.

To start with here is the part 1 of his filmography ...

Miss Coca Cola (1955)

This movie even though was not a commercial succees it had two important features. One of them is that it has some beautiful music composed by OP saab. These include a duet sung by Ashaji and Mukeshji. Of course, Mukesh didn't sing too many songs for OP. The standout song Mukesh did for OP was to come after 14 years later in "Sambandh (1969)". Another significant thing about this movie is that Shammi met his heroine and his future wife, Geeta Bali, in this movie. Their marriage was short lived because Geeta Bali died very young of complications resulting from smallpox. But in the short span they lived together, she molded his career and steered clear for him by identifying what he can do best. This turning point came in "Tumsa Nahin Dekha" in 1957.

There are nine songs in this movie. I am uploading six of them. The missing songs are listed in the table below in red italics. I am requesting members to share these missing songs if they have them.

Now for details of the songs and songs themselves ...

Swarapriya,

I have searched the HF archive for the two missing songs. I didn't find anyone uploading them in the past. They seem to be hard to get songs.

koyi jab dard ka maara aansoo behata hai (2 parts) - Mohammad Rafi, Shamshad Begum (or Geeta Dutt?) (missing)

sach sach bhol nahin batiyaa banaa - Geeta Dutt (missing)
