(Anand Bakshi) Jabse Tumhen Dekha Hai (1963)

Here are the songs from this film...

DSP,
Thanks for one more gem!

In the movie, all the songs are by Shailendra Mahan except this only qawwalli by Anand Bakshi Sahab, & it had made him the show stealer lyricist ….. ‘Tumhe Hushn Deke Khuda Ne..’.

I also loved his another qawwalli from Kala Samander ‘Meri Tasveer Lekar Kay Karoge’.

During ‘golden era’, ‘qawwalli’ was a trend in every movie. Gone are the days now

During the sixties era, Rafi & Lata had partitioned hence IMO the female singers in this qawwalli are Asha & Suman (not Lata). Pl comment.

BTW, uploading sweet humming by Geeta Bali ‘Ye Din, Din Hain Khushi Ke’, coutesy of HFM..


USR

Thanks for the snippet USR. About the qawwali singers. You could be right. I am hoping someone with the KOSH can come forward and clarify this.

Thanks again.

Cheers,
S

Dear Swarapriya & Usrafian
definately very pleasant Qawwali
according to HFGK this qawwali is sung by Mannadewy Rafi Sahab Lataji & asha ji.
if you hear it is sure Lataji,s voice.
althaough HFGK gives one version solo of Mannaday part ??

(Rajinder Krishan) Chacha Chowdhary (1953)

The story of this film revolves around a mentally deranged man who is committed to a lunatic asylum. He escapes the asylum and finds a place in a house with a disarrayed family who mistook him for their rich uncle. In due course, the man who is supposed to be crazy solves everyone’s problems in the household who are driving each other and themselves crazy. A very interesting premise for a story but Raja Paranjape, the actor who played Chacha and directed the film, distracts the main storyline with too many trifle things. In the end, what should have been a gripping drama based on a powerful story, even though has its moments, ends up as just another ordinary and forgettable film.

This is another Madan Mohanji’s album without Lataji’s songs. However Asha does beautifully well in all of her songs. My favorite song of the album is “Jaa Dekhi”.

I have no clue who the singer of the classical raga song “Bahaar Aaye”. I am requesting members to fill in the blanks if they have any information. Here is this and other fine songs from this film…

Dear Swarapriya
According to HFGK DEKHO DEKHO YE GOKUL KA CHOR is not mentioned under CHACHA CHOWDHRY Title.
Can somebody identify this song.
thanks

My Dear Taiyab,

I am pretty sure this song is taken from this film's DVD. I am not able to verify this at this moment but I believe that I got it from this film's DVD. When I have time I will verify if this is the case or not.

Cheers,

(Javed Akhtar) Hafta Bandh (1991)

There is one good song in this otherwise an average album. The song is “Aye Haseena”. It has rich lyrics by Javed Akhtar Saab, fine music by Bappida, and great singing by Kumar Sanu. Here is this and other songs from this album in two back-to-back posts…

(Majrooh) Sailaab (1956)

Mukul Roy, the music director of this film and a brother of late Geeta Dutt, was intent on making this film at any cost. Strapped for money, he went to his sister Geetaji seeking help. To help her brother, Geetaji decided to co-produce the film. When Guru Dutt was approached to direct the film, he advised Geetaji against investing on the project. But Guru has to yield and finally agreed to direct the film.

When the film was made and released it was a financial disaster. Geetaji put all her savings into the project. With the money gone and the losses suffered, she declared herself as insolvent.

Only thing that is still remembered about the movie is its music and songs. Apparently there are nine songs in the film with Geetaji singing nine of them. I am uploading eight songs here, six of Geetaji’s. One missing song is shown in red italics in the table below. I am requesting members to share this song if they can. I have an extended version of the song “Jiyara” that is 36 seconds longer. These seconds either precede or follow the song and its content is music only. I am not uploading it here.

Here is a rare treat of some excellent songs from this beautiful album…

I am uploading nine songs here, seven of Geetaji’s. Two missing songs are shown in red italics in the table below. I am requesting members to share these if they can. All songs are of decent quality except for “Chaand Ke Aansoo”. Because of the noise in the song, I am uploading it at a lower bit rate. I have an extended version of the song “Jiyara” that is 36 seconds longer. These seconds either precede or follow the song and its content is music only. I am not uploading it here.

(Shailendra) Aawaz (1956)

While feverishly working on shaping up his epic story of the tumultuos life and turbulent times of a mother ("Mother India (1957)"), the great Mehboob Khan Saab decided to produce this film. Interestingly none of his regulars were associated with this film. For example, the music was composed by Salilda. Lyrics were written by Shailendra and others.

A note on the song "Dhitang Dhitang Bole" by Lataji. Salilda used the tune for this song from a Bengali song sung by Hemantda which also starts with the words "Dhitang Dhitang Bole". The Bengali song was also composed by Salilda. This is given in the second post.

I am uploading songs from this album in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set...
