Talat Mehmood had sung most of his duet songs mainly with Suraiyya, Geeta Dutt, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle and Sudha Malhotra. I get a feel of an affinity between the singers on the one hand and the actors on the screen on the other hand when I listen to Talat Mehmood-Geeta Dutt duets. This combination is pleasing to my ears and gives credence to what is intended in the lyrics. The song which comes to my mind in this context is ‘armaan bhare dil ki lagan tere liye hai’ from JAAN PEHCHAAN (1950).
Here is a one more pleasing song from Talat Mehmood-Geeta Dutt duet ‘keh rahi hai dhadkanen pukar ke’ from film LAAL PARI (1954). The film was produced under the banner of N C Films and it was directed by Kedar Kapoor. The star cast included Mahipal, Shakila,Tiwari, B M Vyas, Helen, Kuldeep Kaur. The song was written by Asad Bhopali and set to music by Hansraj Bahl. From the name of the film and some of its star cast, this appears to be a fantasy film. Two songs from this film have already been discussed in this blog. Only the audio clip is available of this song. My guess is that this song may have been picturised on Mahipal and Shakila.
There are some songs which are listened best late at night and this melodious song is one of them.

Lyrics
keh rahi hain dhadkanen pukaar kar
chupke chupke dheere dheere pyaar kar
tum ko paayaa apne dil ko haar kar
chhup na jaanaa zindagi sanwaar kar
keh rahi hain dhadkanen pukaar kar
chupke chupke dheere dheere pyaar kar
haseen raat
jaag uthhi
machal rahi
hai chaandni
haseen raat
jaag uthhi
machal rahi
hai chaandni
chaman chaman bahaar hai mere sanam
nigaahon mein khumaar hai mere sanam
sadqe tere
dil ko mere
aisi neend se na hoshiyaar kar
chupke chupke dheere dheere pyaar kar
keh rahi hain dhadkanen pukaar kar
chupke chupke dheere dheere pyaar kar
bhulaa bhi den khataaon ko
hansaa bhi den fizaaon ko
bhulaa bhi den khataaon ko
hansaa bhi den fizaaon ko
nahi hai bas mein dil meraa o naazneen
kareeb aa nazar milaa o naazneen
tu jo kahe
laa doon abhi
aasmaan se chaand ko utaar kar
chhup na jaanaa zindagi sanwaar kar
keh rahi hain dhadkanen pukaar kar
chupke chupke dheere dheere pyaar kar
hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Please correct the name of the movie to read “Lal Pari” (not Jaan Pehchaan”) below the annotation under the video clip.
