QUOTE(swarapriya @ Jun 25 2011, 11:34 PM)  Libaas (1988) Gulzar wrote the lyrics and directed this film. However, it couldn’t get clearance by the Censor Board for public exhibition. This was not the first time Gulzarji had problems like this. His "Aandhi (1975)" ran into the same problems with the Censor Board but it was eventually cleared for exhibition. However, it was different this time. The Board members felt the subjects "Libaas" dealt with, adultery and extramarital relations were too bold for its time and declined to give the clearance. It was shown abroad at various film festivals but the Indian Censor Board stuck to its guns and never yielded. I am not certain whether this film was ever released in India. It has beautiful music to great lyrics written by Gulzarji. Even though movie was made in 1988, because of the Censor Board problems it ran into, the songs of the film were not released until 1994, after R.D.’s death. I am uploading these songs from an original soundtrack album. Here are these beauties… There was no censor board issue with this film. It played at a few film festivals in 1991-92 (in India as well... I saw it in Bangalore), but did not get a theatrical release due to some issues with the producer. And if I'm not mistaken, the songs were also released in the 1992-93 time frame, before RD's death. Aditya My Blog - http://urgetofly.blogspirit.com

Aditya Ya Adityaji ..Cassette released Single No too.............& Specially "Doordarshan telecasted the song ..."SILI HAWA CHOO GAYEE" ...... For me, singing sad songs often has a way of healing a situation. It gets the hurt out in the open into the light, out of the darkness.

Mirza Ghalib (TV Serial) - CD2 (1988)
Here are the ghazals from the second part of the two-volume set. I will upload these in two back-to-back posts. Couple of ghazals in these recordings have some noise in them. Especially the ghazal "Yeh Mujhe". Please note that these are part of the recordings. Here are the ghazals in the first post...

What I uploaded was from the 2-CD set. May be someone else can come forward and share this with rest of us. I did have the DVD of the serial but I just can't locate it. If and when I do, I will try to upload it myself. Cheers, S |

Lekin (1990)
“Lekin” is based on a short story by Rabindranath Tagore. Its screenplay and some of the lyrics were written by Gulzarji, who also directed the movie. The movie was produced by the singing legend Lata Mangeshkar. Its music was provided by her younger brother, Hridyanath Mangeshkar. The movie bagged many National Film Awards. Lata won for the haunting melody, the stirring song “Yaara Seeli Seeli” as the Best Female Playback Singer. Gulzarji won for its lyrics the Best Lyricist Award. The composer of that song and others from the film, the music director Hridyanath Mangeshkar, won as the Best Music Director. Nitish Roy won for the Best Art Direction. Finally to round up the Natonal Film Awards, Bhanu Athaiya won for the Best Costume Design. Gulzarji also won for “Yaara Seeli Seeli” the Filmfare Award as the Best Lyricist. I am uploading songs from this film from an original soundtrack album in two back-to-back posts. Here are the songs in the first post… Attached image(s)
