This is one song that must be as rare a song as they come. Listen to this song and try to judge the people involved in the creation of the song. It is easy to notice that the song is picturised on Dhumal and Tuntun. One can also notice that the song is sung by [...]

“Abhi to main jawaan hoon” is a song that is mainly associated with Malika Pukhraj. But a song with similar lyrics was there in “Afsaanaa” (1951) as well and there it was sung by Lata.

Bollywood movies of the past were like the Indian familiies of the past as far as keeping a limit on their songs/ children were concerned.

This song is from a very old movie called “Dil Ki Rani” (1947). Most people involved in the creation of this song are now household names, but at the time of creation of this song, they were newcomers. In fact the names by which they were then known are not the names by which they [...]

It is my belief that Roshan should be called the king of filmi qawwalis the way Madan Mohan is described as the king of Ghazals. Many of the qawwaalis that Roshan has created in movies have gone on to become immortal.

I came across this song from a very old movie called “Singaar” (1949). The artists involved in creating this song are not all that well known today. The singer is Surinder Kaur and the lyricist is Nakshab. Khursheed Anwar composed the music.

These days I am looking back into the past posts that I have posted over the last twenty odd months. While reading them up as well as reading the comments, I am getting information and ideas for “new” songs to post.

Bollywood movies tended to have songs where the hero teases the heroine and gets away with it. Picturisation of majority of such songs left much to be desired as far as I am concerned.

I may have heard this song in passing in the past, but I never paid much attention to it, and indeed I had no clue about this song.

“Bairaag” (1976) is one of the last movies where Dilip Kumar is seen as a hero. And as happened with heroes well past the conventionally accepted age of playing Bollywood heroes, he is paired up with Leena Chandawarkar here, who was nearly half the age of Dilip Saab at that time.
