There were some small budget art movies in late 1970s and early 1980s whose plots were so life like. In fact, they depicted the lives of people of lower class, who lived in slums, unlike the masala movies, where even lower class people are shown living in palatial homes.
Also, while the characters in masala movies would sing disco songs composed by Bappi Lahiri, these real life characters sung ghazals composed by Khayyam. And these ghazals may have outlived the disco songs when one looks back with the benefit of hindsight.
Here is a ghazal of “Baazaar” which depicted the lives of a very lower class family. All songs in this movie were very hummable. This particular song, for instance can still pull one’s heart strings.
Song- Dikhaayi diye yoon (Baazaar) (1982) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Mir Taqi Mir, MD-Khayyam
Lyrics
dikhaayi diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
dikhaayi diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
hamen aap se bhi judaa kar chale
dikhaayi diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
dikhaayi diye yoon
jabeen sajdaa karte hi karte gayi
jabeen sajdaa karte hi karte gayi
haq-e-bandagi ham adaa kar chale
dikhaayi diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
hamen aap se bhi judaa kar chale
dikhaayi diye yoon
parastish ki yaan tak ki ai but tujhe -
parastish ki yaan tak ki ai but tujhe
nazar mein sabhon ki Khudaa kar chale
dikhaayi diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
hamen aap se bhi judaa kar chale
dikhaayi diye yoon
bahut aarzoo thi gali ki teri
bahut aarzoo thi gali ki teri
so yaas-e-lahoo mein nahaa kar chale
dikhaai diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
hamen aap se bhi judaa kar chale
dikhaai diye yoon ke bekhud kiyaa
dikhaayi diye yoon
