Dheere dheere machal ae dile bekaraar
Posted on: September 20, 2008
Another Lata gem from 1960s. This song from Anupama (1966) was picturised on Surekha ( I thank Raja for this information). The Bollywood actresses those days tended to look like Vyjyantimala, Meena Kumari or Asha Parekh. Surekha looks so much like Asha Parekh in this song. May be that is because of similar appearance, hair style etc.
Surekha sings this song on a piano wating for her beau Tarun Bose. Tarun Bose, ever so impeccably dressed in suit/ boot/ tie arrives unannounced and enjoys the singing for a minute and a half before revealing himself to her.
Surekha then notices him but continues to sing, but now rest of the song is sung by looking towards Mr Bose.
The line
“roothke pahle jee bhar sataauungi main
jab manaaenge wo, maan jaauungi main”,
sung with a naughty smile, which brings a hint on a smile on the lips of Tarun Bose too, is the highlight of this song for me.
It is quite a heart warming song, that one can listen to many a times. The public in 1967 also thought so, and this song finished as high as number 5 in the Binaca geetmala final of 1967.
Song- Dheere dheere machal ae dile bekaraar (Anupama) (1966) Singer- Lata, Lyrics-Kaifi Azmi, MD-Hemant Kumar
Lyrics
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
koi aataa hai
yoon tadapke na tadpaa mujhe baarbaar
koi aataa hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
uske daaman ki khushboo hawaaon mein hai
uske kadmon ki aahat fazaaon mein hai
uske daaman ki khushabuu hawaaon mein hai
uske kadmon ki aahat fazaaon mein hai
mujhko karne de, karne de solah singaar
koi aataa hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
koi aataa hai
yoon tadapke na tadpaa mujhe baarbaar
koi aataa hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
mujhko chhoone lagin uski parchhaaiyaan
dilke nazdeek bajtin hain shahanaaiyaan
mujhko chhoone lagin uskii parchhaaiyaan
dilke nazdiik bajatii hain shahanaaiyaan
mere sapanon ke aangan mein gaataa hai pyaar
koi aataa hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
koi aataa hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
roothke pahle jee bhar sataauungi main
jab manaaenge wo, maan jaaungi main
roothke pahle jee bhar sataauungi main
jab manaaenge wo, maan jaaungi main
dil pe rahta hai aise me kab ikthiyaar
koi aata hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar
koi aataa hai
yoon tadapke na tadpaa mujhe baarbaar
koi aata hai
dheere dheere machal ae dil-e-beqaraar

absolutely marvellous song… touches my heart every time I hear it. BTW, I discovered your site today. Truely, a labor of love and tireless effort. Very very much appreciated.
From my child hood i was admired by this song, and on search to this song for a very long time and now got it , excelent work by hementkumar, and lata, memorable song
This song, besides being very, very popular in 1966-67, is really a MASTERPIECE. Look at the way it’s picturised – great !
Thanx a ton, Atul. And how about adding a vid-link (dailymtion or youtube) to ALL your songs – watching video immediately after reading yr comments – for ALL songs- would make all the difference !
Keep it up – your site is great !
i appreciate this, but meant that you should embed links for ALL your songs, Atul. Though i realise that not all are avlbl on dailymotion/ youtube, but most should be there – where u wd need to add the links.
I am really fascinated by the Surekha’s performance in picturising this song. I want to know if she is alive or passed away. If somebody gives me this info, I’ll be grateful.
An all time great song. The lyrics, music (piano) and Lataji .. an immortal creation. I cam to know about the actress Surekha from you only. In my favorite list of Lataji it is among top five.

Nice Song.
I have listened to this song endless times. Not so much for this song but because it was on the same side as “Ya Dil Ki Suno” on the record. That song is in my top 10 list and Dheere Dheere Machal always got played when I listened to that particular record so I have a special liking for it as well
