(Waheeda) Teesri Kasam (1966)

I am re-uploading these songs on request...

Here is one of the great movies of Indian cinema. Everything in this movie comes together as a tranquil distilled morning of a beautifully silent village. The acting, the story telling, the direction, the lyrics, the songs, and the whole gamit makes this one an outstanding achievement.

Shailendra bought rights to make this movie from a short story "Maare Gaye Gulfaam" by Phanishwar Nath Renu. He was fascinated with the two principle characters in the story and was willing to spend whatever he has to see the movie made. Shailendra originally had Meena Kumari and Mahmood in the roles that were eventually played by Waheeda and Raj respectively. He took an unknown Basu Bhattacharya, who was an assistant to the great Bimal Roy, to direct the movie. The simplicity and the lyrical nature of the movie has the imprint of a Bimalda movie all over.

Raj was a close and good friend of Shailendra. He had this inkling that this movie was not going to fly. He advised Shailendra against making the movie. But Shailendra was obsessed to see this movie through. It was said that Raj didn't want to take any renumeration for the movie. However, at Shailendra's insistence, he took one Rupee as a token for his efforts.

Raj apparently was not too happy with the choice of Basu Bhattacharya as the director. Basu was new and Raj was irked with the way things were shaping up. In the end, this movie proved to be the greatest achievement of Basu.

The movie was originally scheduled to be shot in Bihar where the actual story takes place. But because of the dacoit problems many other sites were considered. Finally Igatpuri was selected. This is the same place where Bimalda's lyrical poem on celluloid, "Madhumati", was shot.

Both Waheeda and Raj gave wonderful performances. The performance of Waheeda reminds one of the heights she scaled in "Pyaasa" and "Guide". Shankar and Jaikishan provide some of the best music of their lives to magnificent lyrics written by Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri. Their music captured the simplicity, rustic nature, sweetness, and charm of rural areas.

This labor of love of Shailendra, "Teesri Kasam", when released won unanimous critical acclaim. But it was a financial disaster. Shailendra lost everything he owned. A broken man, Shailendra passed away on December 14, 1966. Ironically, December 14 also happens to be Raj's birthday.

"Teesri Kasam" won the President's Gold Medal for that year. It was also nominated for the Grand Prix award at the 1967 Moscow International Film Festival.

There are several songs in this album, and each one of them is a sheer beauty. I will upload these in three back-to-back posts. The first two posts have the songs from the album. The third post has a couple of specials.

Now for the first set of songs …

Concluding Songs from "Teesri Kasam (1966)"...

I am including in this post a couple of specials. The song "Chalat Musafir" has an introduction by the director of the movie, Basu Bhattacharya. The second song, "Sajanwa Bairi Ho Gayi" has an introduction by Lata. Both of these songs came from different "Legends" series albums.

Here are these two songs...

(Nutan) Karma (1986)

Here is another "big" movie from the producer and director Subhash Ghai. It has many big star names that helped the movie to become a hit. I am uploading songs of this album from an original soundtrack album in two back-to-back posts. However, there is not much originality in the film. It follows a theme similar to "Sholay (1975)" but not with the same intensity and heat that was mostly generated by great Amjad Khan's portrayal of Gabbar Singh.

Here is the first set of songs...
