Shair Aur Sargam, Songs From Movies of 7 Great Lyricists Options

[taiyab53]

Dear Swarapriya,

In the movie "Naukri" (1954) these are few rectifications:

1. Ek Chhoti Si Naukri - The name of the singer will be Shyamal Mitra and not Shyam Mitra.

2. Hey Lo Baadal - The singer is not definitely Kishore Kumar. I am 100% sure about it.The voice is
completely different and doesnot match with KK.The voice here sounds similar to Shyamal Mitra.
Moreover there is no mention about this song in the KK's biography, websites or elsewhere.

Maybe somebody from the forum can throw light on this.

Regards

Soumik

(Shailendra) Naukri (1954)

This Bimalda's film deals with unemployment. Remember the movie was made in 1954. Seems like it could have been made recently as the subject is still topical. The song "Chhota Sa Ghar" was very popular. Interestingly this song is based on a song in Bengali sung by Kishoreda, "Hey Lo Baadal". It was composed by Chitta Roy and lyrics were written by Gaouriprasanna Majumdar. I am uploading that song here as a reference.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee was the editor of the film.

Here are the songs from this film...

Dear Soumik
as per HFGK the name of singers in the song EK CHOOTI SI are
1) Kishore Kumar
2) Shanker das gupta
3) shyamal mitra

Thanks Bro....

You clear my doubt, though C.Ramchandra has not been credited in the fllm or elsewhere.

Dear Swarapriya,

In the movie Ladki (1953), the song "Aurat Na Ho To Zindagi Hain" is actually a duet song. One is definitely KK but I could not identify the other male voice. I think it is C. Ramchandra himself (not 100% sure).

If anybody clears my doubt, I will be happy....

Soumik

It is C Ramchandra.

Viraj

there are 2 parts of this song
as Per HFGK- 1 st part is sung by Om prakash & second part there are Kishore Kumar & krishna goel(although in HFGK have mentioned others) & to me it looks more of Krishna goel rather than C ramchandra.
others opinion is required.
thanks

Soumik, it was an error on my part. It should be Shyamal Mitra and not Shyam Mitra. The error was in my database and it was carried over onto the table.

As far as the Bengali song, you probably are right. Until a clarification comes along I will leave as it is for now.

Thanks,

(Rajinder Krishan) Bahaana (1960)

Here is yet another film with the combination of Madan Mohan Saab and Rajinder Krishanji. Most of the songs from this movie are good, especially solos by Talat and Lata. Here are these and other songs from this album…

[swarapriya]

(Shailendra) Char Diwari (1961)

This drama tells about a simple family that is struggling to meet its ends. In spite of this everyone seem to be living happily until an unfortunate accident to the housewife turns everything upside down. It has beautiful music by Salilda. My favorite is both parts of Mukesh’s song, “Kaise Manaavoon”.

The title lists that the film is introducing Shashi Kapoor. However, he earlier appeared in at least two or three films of Raj Kapoor. I remember distinctly he was in “Awara (1951)” as the young Raj Kapoor and in “Shree 420 (1955)” in the song “Pyaar Hua”.

Here are the songs from this film…

(Hasrat Jaipuri & Shailendra) New Delhi (1956)

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

Here is another beautiful album from Shankar & Jaikishan. Even though the movie is dated there is no denying to the fact that it has an endearing story. Rajinder Singh Bedi’s touching humane story revolves around the theme of integration. It highlights that we should live peacefully in spite of our differences between our habits, different spoken languages, North versus South, one caste compared to the other, and other topics. These serious topics were told in an entertaining style. The net result was that this movie proved to be a crowd pleaser when it was originally released.

The album boasts beautiful songs, all solos, six by Lata and three by Kishoreda. All songs were winners with Lata's "Tum Sang" a chartbuster and so were all three of Kishoreda's songs. My favorite from this album is Kishoreda's beauty, "Nakhrewaali". I don't think anyone else can sing such a song except for Kishoreda. Yodeling, inflections of sounds, modulation of the tone, such total control over the voice, Kishoreda was undoubtedly a master of it.

I am uploading all songs from an original soundtrack album in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set of songs…

(Hasrat Jaipuri) Junglee (1961)

Subodh Mukerji produced and directed this film from his own story and screenplay. Saira Banu was introduced in this film that became a huge success. It was a combination of things that clicked big for this massive entertainer. It was a mixture of Saira’s fresh looks, Shammi’s boisterous performance, lovely Kashmir for the location shooting, and to a great measure the music, that all contributed to the film’s success.

The music was composed by the inimitable pair of Shankar & Jaikishan. They were assisted by Dattaram & Sebastian. Every song from the film became a chartbuster. The song “Chaahe Mujhe” became a trademark for Shammi who graduated from the rebel star he was in “Tumsa Nahin Dekha (1957)” to the “Yahoo” star from this film onwards.

The story goes that it was Shammi’s idea to introduce “Yahoo” before the title song “Chaahe Mujhe”. The words “Yahoo” were vocalized by Prayagraaj and not Rafi Saab. Prayagraaj was one of the writers of the film. The scene in the film was originally supposed to be shot in Pehalgam in Kashmir. But there was not enough snow when the shooting was planned. For this song alone, the entire unit moved to Kufri near Simla where Saira & Shammi rolling down the snow was picturized.

I am uploading all songs, a few specials, and several instrumentals in four back-to-back posts. The first two posts contain all the songs and specials. The third and the fourth posts contain instrumentals.

Here are the songs in the first post…
