Added some more. I am surprised at having left out some of these earlier. Adding some more after scanning mahesh ji's lovingly prepared filmography. I haven't heard songs of many of these movies. There maybe others in the years mahesh ji is still making filmography. Its a brilliant effort sir. Do let me know if you need any help from me in this regard. Thanks for everything.

Mar 24 2009, 09:21 PM
Also there is another movie Fighting Queen(1956) with atleast two Geeta songs, Ban Ke Bahaar Aayi hoon and Peehu Peehu Piya Bole.
Film Wild Cat (1960) (also called Bambai Ki Billi) had two Geeta songs Dil ke Paar Ho Gayi Teri Ek Nazar and Dildaar Tu Hai Mera Pyar Tu Hai.

No its a released film.
A search on net revealed that
it was a movie starring Chandrashekhar, Shakeela, Poornima and Daljeet. According to a
second site the movie also had Pradeep Kumar, Vyjyanthimala, Shashikala, Helen, Om Prakash, Parveen Paul and a host of other actors as part of it.
It was directed by Bhagwan and was produced by Mukul Pictures.
According to that article the movie had music by MD Jai Ram (He's a new MD to me. Perhaps members know more about him).
Rajneesh ji has mentioned about
one song in one of his posts as having S Balbir as MD so perhaps it had more than one MDs:-
o my dear bolo na - Uma Devi Tuntun & S Balbir - Passing Show (1956) - M. L. Khanna - S Balbir
A search on earthmusic reveals it has other Geeta songs as well:
http://www.earthmusic.net/hindi-film-songs...ie=passing+showAnybody having the other songs of the movie than Bachna Zara.

I am not sure if there is a song by Geeta ji in this film.

Mar 25 2009, 06:45 PM
Mr Qartoon M.A. has a geeta-asha duet, "Dil Tera Deewana O Mastani Bulbul .. tum kitna beautiful haaye". Infact this is the last recorded Geeta song for O.P. Nayyar.
A kata-phata version of the song can be seen here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3GNXecdwdQI'll upload the song if you want.
I got it from lakshmi ji's upload sometime back. I rate it as one of top 3 geeta-asha duets.

Oops..I am sorry, how could I forget this song. I do remember and have this song but mistook it for "Jhuki jhuki pyar ki nazar" from Johny Walker. Yes, this is the swan song of Geeta ji for OP. Still "Mera naam çhin chin choo" is considered the "solo" swan song of hers for OP.
BTW, we have come up with a very comprehensive list. Thanks to all the contributors.

Now thats a personal opinion. I consider Baaz songs as her
swan best songs for O.P. Nayyar!
Yes, contributors have got together a fantastic list. I hadn't thought there maybe 70+ such movies.

Any song can be swan song Parag! The order is immaterial. The Baaz songs are the best she has rendered for him as far as I am concerned.
Meaning of swan song From English-Hindi Freedict Dictionary [fd-eng-hin]:
swansong <N.>
1. अतिम कति
"This is my swansong."
Note that it is atim kriti - that is
best one - advitiya could be another meaning. last one.
parag_sankla
Mar 26 2009, 02:00 AM
Well all these days, I was thinking that swan-song is the last song. This is what wikipedia has to say:
By extension, swan song has become an idiom referring to a final theatrical or dramatic appearance, or any final work or accomplishment. It generally carries the connotation that the performer is aware that this is the last performance of his or her lifetime, and is expending everything in one magnificent final effort.
So far I have been reading that 3 songs from Anubhav were swan songs of Geeta ji. So I was thinking that swan song refers to the last (not necessarily the best).
The dictionary meaning you have provided also probably says the same thing : Antim Kriti (The last piece of work)
Regards
Parag
hildebrand
Mar 26 2009, 04:59 AM
Hmm, I got the meaning wrong then!
I wonder how swans of all birds got linked to this!
Swans are so beautiful, white and perfect making me think that the best song was perfect and the swan song!
Point accepted. My idioms need revising soon.

is there a movie called Faraar Police(1957)
Prof ji's site uploaded a song recently as a duet with hemant kumar, Log Peete Hain Ladkhadaate Hain. Geeta portion seems to be same as Chale Hum Kahaan from Police(1958). Any ideas anyone?
Here's link to that song:-

Looks like this is the case of 2 songs combined together. "Log peete hain" from the film Faraar (1957) and "Chale hum kahan" from the film Police (1958).
I don't think there is any film titled Faraar Police.
