Songs of "Awara (1951)"

There is a saying in English that goes "like father, like son". How far this adage can be true? This movie, bold in its theme when it was first released, tests this statement to its ultimate and unexpected but its eventual result. Raj Kapoor was not simply a master showman (take the stunning dream sequence from this movie), but was making a social commentary through these movies in his own entertaining way.

This is a great movie with sparkling songs. I will post these in three back-to-back posts. Here is the first set of songs ...

Songs of "Awara (1951)" Continued ...

Here is the next set of songs from this great musical. I am also including a couple of specials here. These are the songs "Awara Hoon" and "Hanste Bhi Rahe". Both of these had introductions by Raj Kapoor himself and are from the album, "Legends: Raj Kapoor - The Showman (CD1)".

Now for the songs ...

(Nargis) Deedar (1951)

Here is a weeper that was a runaway hit when it was originally released. Dilip became famous for playing these type of roles. There is so much tragedy in his life that it is just hard to swallow. It has some great music by Naushadji. Every song is just hummably good. I will upload these in two back-to-back posts.

This movie was remade in Telugu as "Chiiranjeevulu" in 1956. I will post songs from this album in this thread right after I am done with "Deedar" postings.

Here is the first set of songs ...

Chiranjeevulu (1956) - A Telugu Movie

This was a remake of "Deedar". The folks who earlier made the Telugu classic "Devadasu" made this movie. In fact, the hero's role was originally offered to the hero of Telugu "Devadasu", Nageshwara Rao (ANR). But ANR politely declined the offer stating that Telugu audience may not be ready to see him in back-to-back tragedies. Instead Rama Rao reprised the role of Dilip in Hindi. But in a way ANR's prophecy came true. The Telugu version failed at the box office.

There are some beautiful songs in this movie. My favorite is Leelaji's "Tella Vaaraga Vachhe". Leelaji was an absolute smash the way she sings this song in her melodious and very distinctive voice.

Here are the songs from this movie ...

Shear Melody and unmatched vocals of Rafisaab. Nasseb dar pe tere is a larger than life rendition.


PLAYBACK SINGING STARTS AND ENDS WITH RAFISAAB. IN TERMS OF QUALITY, CONSISTENCY & VERSATILITY, RAFISAAB IS INFINITE LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF ALL SINGERS BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER HIM.

I have changed many views in life since my childhood, but not my view of Rafi Saab as the God-sent Gandharva who visited this Earth briefly to spread ultimate ecstasy among genuine music-lovers!
