I am uploading one of my father's hits. I received this from the Late Mr. Amarjeet Anand. My thanks to him. I would appreciate a better resolution copy. If someone has it please upload.
I will be putting up some of the collection I have on the forum and hope all of you will contribute with uploading of missing songs and correct any errrors etc. All songs of the movie are welcome even if they were not sung by my father. I will be setting up an archive for these at a latter date on his web site.
If someone can direct me to a copy of the actual movie on VHS or DVD that would be the ultimate!
Best wishes,
Ashwin Batish

Dr. Surjit Singh has posted all the songs from Daasi on his web-site hindi-movies-songs.com These are from the VCD of the movie.
Pradeep
Bravo Pradeepji This is a home run! Thank you.
First time I got to hear all the songs from this film. Also, to my pleasant surprise the film track for "Khamosh Nigahen" is refreshingly different. Looks like my father recorded this song twice one for the film version and the other for the record. I will ask him about this and also if this (recording double versions) was regular policy for that time in the filmy era.
I am still interested in getting a hold of the VCD so I can get better resolution copies. The one of Surjeetji's site were 20k.
Kind regards,
Ashwin Batish
My father sends his kind regards back to you. Here is what he told me re. the 2 different versions. I thought it was quite facinating.
The director Mr. Bose had my father come especially to the screening and record the 2nd version which he did by self accompanying himself with a harmonium. You will notice the rest of the orchestra is much lower. He was allowed to adlib variations and song start / stops according to how he felt the movie scene demanded. He is unsure but thinks it is Pandit Amarnath that accompanied him on the tabla. He credits Pandit Amarnathji with a great gift for the tabla.
I asked him if this was the case with the Zeenat songs etc, and he said that, as far as he can remember, "Khamosh Nigahen" was the only song in the movie that they did the live double version on.
Best wishes,
Ashwin Batish
