(Majrooh) Opera House (1961)

The only thing worth mentioning about this film is its music by Chitraguptji. There are six songs in the film. All are sung by Lata; three solos and three duets. All duets and the solo, “Balma”, are appealing. The song of the album is the duet by Lata and Mukesh, “Dekho Mausam”. Here are these songs and a few music clips from this film…

(Rajinder Krishan) Khota Paisa (1958)

M. Sadiq besides producing and directing this film also wrote its story and screenplay. He was big on Shyama and Johnny Walker. Both of them appeared in several of his films together or by themselves. This was his second film with Walker as the hero. The other was the 1956 film “Chhoo Mantar”. The film was supposed to be a comedy but there was not much substance to the proceedings. But the music of Madan Mohanji, who almost sounds like O.P. Nayyar here, was the highlight of the film. With Naayarish songs, he had Asha sing most of the female songs. Listen to the song “Adaayein”. An impeccable imprint of OP style of music.

This was the fifth film Madan Mohan Saab and Rajinder Krishan worked together in 1958. The other four were, “Adalat”, “Chandan”, “Jailor”, and “Khazanchi”.

There is a fine qawwali in the film, “Dil Haseenon Se”. I am uploading a regular version and an extended version of the song at a lower bit rate. The longer version has some static between 3:20 and 4:20.

(Shailendra) Honeymoon (1960)

Here is a fine album from Salilda with Mukesh’s song “Mere Khwaabon Mein” taking the top honors…

(Anand Bakshi) Do Bhai (1969)

This movie released in 1969, the same year of blockbusters “Aradhana” and “Do Raaste”, was lost in the “mastaana” storm of “Aradhana” and the family drama of “Do Raaste”. But I think it deserved better. At least it has some elements of a good story and excellent acting by Dadamoni. The songs were about average and that did not help the film. The movie begins with Rafi Saab’s song “Iss Duniya” as the titles roll and ends with the same song. In between also it appears once more. The verbiage for these three parts is slightly different. I am uploading all three of these and rest of the songs below…

(Majrooh) Ramu Dada (1961)

There are several good songs in this otherwise dull crime drama. A rare solo by Kamal Barot is a surprise. Shakeela Bano Bhopali, the queen of qawwali, appears in the film in the qawwali, “Zinda Hai”. My favorite of the album is the solo by Mukeshji, “Babum”.

The titles list Asha as one of the singers. I don’t believe any of the songs listed in the table below has Asha’s voice in it. If there is another song in this film that is by Asha, I am requesting members to share with rest of us if they can. Thank you.

A note on the two duets by Lata and Rafi Saab, “Daal Bhi De Palkon Ki” and “Daal Bhi De Zulfon Ki”. The first song is in the film. Interesting thing is that these two are identical except everywhere “Palkon” appears in the first duet, in the other duet it is replaced by “Zulfon”. If anyone has any idea how this came about, please share with us. Thanks.

[Viraj Padhye]

As per HFGK, there are 2 more songs without any credits "AAYI HAIN DIWALI PATANGA NACHE" & "ADAYEIN CHODO GARIBON SE". Records are not available. Maybe Asha appears in one of these or both the songs. Swarasha by Vishwas Nerurkar also doesn't list Ramu Dada as playback movie for Asha.
