Main natkhat ik kali
Posted on: July 2, 2011
“Do Behnen”(1959) is a movie that few people are aware of. It is this movie that had one of the iconic Pradeep songs viz Mukhdaa dekh le praani zaraa darpan mein .
This movie in fact has some very nice songs in it which deserve to be better known among music lovers.
In Hindi movies, we often have one actor playing double role- one is “good” and other is “bad”. Typically only one of them ,viz the “good” one sings songs.
In this movie, Shyama plays double roles. The “good” Shyama is a God fearing traditional girl who would devote all his time singing Bhajans. The “bad” Shyama wears western clothes and goes to parties.
Here is a unique song in which both Shyamas are shown singing. The “good” Shyama is singing a Bhajan and the “bad” Shyama is singing a song on a faster beat. Just like Shyama plays a double role in acting, Lata plays a double role in singing. Yes, Lata sings for both characters and switches from one character to another expertly, often in a matter of one line.
It may be difficult to believe, but such a light hearted song is written and composed by artists who are normally associated with more serious stuff. Yes, this light hearted song is penned by Pradeep. Music is composed by Vasant Desai.
Song-Main natkhat ik kali (Do Behnen) (1959) Singer-Lata,Lyrics-Pradeep,MD-Vasant Desai

main natkhat ik kali
badi re badi hoon manchali
dil hai deewaanaa mera
roop suhaanaa mera
koi mat aanaa meri gali
main natkhat ik kali
aa aa aa
aa aa aa
aa aa aa
aa aa aa
baaji re manjeere
baaji re manjeere
Jamunaa ke teere
Raadha sang Shyaam naache
mand mand dheere dheere
mand mand dheere
baaji re manjeere
main natkhat ik kali
badi re badi hoon manchali
dil hai deewaanaa mera
roop suhaanaa mera
koi mat aanaa meri gali
main natkhat ik kali
naajon ki pali main hoon re
saanche mein dhali main hoon re
naajon ki pali main hoon re
saanche mein dhali main hoon re

?? katputli main hoon main
mukh mod mod naachoon
tan tod tod main naachoon
mohe laage re
mohe laage re
mohe laage re ye duniya badi hi bhali
main natkhat ik kali
badi re badi hoon manchali
dil hai deewaanaa mera
roop suhaanaa mera
koi mat aanaa meri gali
main natkhat ik kali
suno ri chalo guyiyaan
murli pukaare
panghat pe leela karte
saanwariyaa pyaare
hone lagi kheencha taani
Kanhaiyya ne ek na maani
sharmaaye
o o o
sharmaaye Raadha rani
lat uljhi re
baaji re manjeere
baaji re manjeere
Jamuna ke teere
Raadha sang Shyaam naache
mand mand dheere dheere
mand mand dheere
baaji re manjeere
main natkhat ik kali
badi re badi hoon manchali
dil hai deewaanaa mera
roop suhaanaa mera
koi mat aanaa meri gali
main natkhat ik kali
badi re badi hoon manchali
baaji re manjeere
Jamunaa ke teere
main natkhat ik kali
baaji re manjeere
