Jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer nazar aati hai
Posted on: September 22, 2010
Here is a song from “Mahaan” (1983). This is a wonderful sentimental song which appears in the movie twice and it is sung by different singers on both the occasions.
The first, happy version of the song is sung by Kishore. The second, somre and poignant version is sung by Amitabh Bachchan.
Both these versions are picturised on Amitabh Bachchan and Waheeda Rehman. In the fist version, they are together and happy and looking forward to a bright and prosperous future. In the second version, they are separated and have not met her for ages. This version of song is in fact sung on phone. Amitabh Bachchan sings this song to Waheeda Rehman on phone.
This song thus wears so many hats. It is a phone song- phone song, sentimental song, “tasweer” song, etc etc.
The song is written by Anjaan and music is composed by R D Burman.
This song is from 1983, and by that time the golden era of Hindi movie songs was fast coming to an end. R D Burman and a few others were the last Moghul of the golden era and they wer trying to keep the flag of the great tradition of Hindi movie songs alive.

Lyrics
————————————–
Kishore Kumar version
ho
jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer,
nazar aati hai
ho
jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer
jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer,
nazar aati hai
teri soorat, meri taqdeer,
nazar aati hai
zindaa hoon main tere liye,
jeewan teraa hai
meraa hai jo, sab hai teraa,
ab kyaa meraa hai
meri khushiyon ki tu jaageer
nazar aati hai
ho
jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer,
nazar aati hai
binaa dekhe, binaa jaane,
tan man baandhe jo
bandhan jo, janam janam,
mar ke judaa na ho
teri chaahat wahi zanjeer,
nazar aati hai
ho
jidhar dekhoon teri tasweer,
nazar aati hai
teri soorat, meri taqdeer,
nazar aati hai
