Roop tera mastaana
Posted on: January 13, 2013
Today (13 january 2013) is the 87th birth anniversary of Shakti Samanta (13 january 1926- 9 april 2009). Some of the most memorable Hindi movies in 1960s and 1970s were Shakti Films production. Movies like “Howrah Bridge” (1958), “China Town” (1961), “Kashmir Ki Kali” (1964), “An Evening in Paris” (1967), “Kati Patang” (1970), “Amar Prem” (1971) were Shakti Samanta’s movies.
Someone who created the above mentioned out and out entertainers is assured of his place in the Hindi movies hall of fame. His claim in further strengthened when we realise that “Aradhana” (1969), one of the most influential Hindi movie was also a Shati Samanta Production.
From the list of abovementioneds movies, we see that Shakti Samanta collaborated with Ashok Kumar and then Shammi Kapoor in his earlie movies and then made movies with a newcomer called Rajesh Khanna.
I was one of the millions of Hindi movie and music fans who were swept off their feet by Rajesh Khanna tsunami that hit the moviewathers with big force in late 1960s. I was one of the unlucky ones who did not watch most of Rajesh Khanna movies during its first run. “Haathi Mere Saathi” and “Apna Desh” were the only Rajesh Khanna movies that I got to watch during its initial run.
Notwithstanding the fact that I missed watching mostr Rajesh Khanna movies during that time, it was impossible to miss listening to the music of Rajesh Khanna movies of those days and being influenced by it. Have nots like me were just as influenced by the songs of Rajesh Khanna movies as the lucky ones (one can count more 40 + regulars of this blog among them 
).
Many people are surprised that the songs of “Aradhana” (1969) have not been fully represented in the blog. Perhaps I am saving the music of late 1960s and early 1970s for the last.
Four songs from “Aradhana” (1969) have been discussed in the past. Here is the fifth song from “Aradhana” (1969). This is an “important” song of the movie that helps take the story of the movie forward for reasons that are self explanatory for those who have watched the picturisation of this movie.
The song is sung by Kishore Kumar. It is picturised as a sensuous background song while we find Rajesh Khanna and Sharmila Tagore finding themselkves in a situation that I have by now named as a “roop tera mastaana” situation in honour of this song.
Anand Bakshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman (officially) but the popular impression is that the music of this song was actually composed by R D Burman who was deputing for his ailing father in this movie.

roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
bhool koi humse na ho jaaye
roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
bhool koi humse na ho jaaye
raat nasheelee
mast samaa hai
aaj nashe mein
saara jahaan hai
raat nasheelee
mast sama hai
aaj nashe mein
saara jahaan hai
haay sharaabi mausam behkaaye
ae ae ae ae
roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
bhool koi humse na ho jaaye
aankhon se aankhen
miltee hain aise
bechain hoke
toofaan mein jaise ae ae
aankhon se aankh
miltee hain aise
bechain hoke
toofaan mein jaise
mauj koi saahil se takraaye
ae ae ae ae
roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
bhool koi humse na hojaye
rok raha hai
humko zamaana
door hi rehna
paas na aana
rok raha hai
humko zamaana
door he rehna
paas na aana
kaise magar koi dilko samjaaye
ae ae ae ae
roop tera mastaanaa
pyaar mera deewaana
bhool koi hum se na ho jaaye

रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
भूल कोई हमसे न हो जाये
रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
भूल कोई हमसे न हो जाये
रात नशीली
मस्त समां है
आज नशे में
सारा जहां है
रात नशीली
मस्त समां है
आज नशे में
सारा जहां है
हाय शराबी मौसम बहकाए ए ए ए ए
रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
भूल कोई हमसे न हो जाये
आँखों से आँखें
मिलती हैं जैसे
बेचैन हो के
तूफान में जैसे
आँखों से आँखें
मिलती हैं जैसे
बेचैन हो के
तूफान में जैसे
मौज कोई साहिल से टकराए ए ए ए ए
रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
भूल कोई हमसे न हो जाये
रोक रहा है
हम को ज़माना
दूर ही रहना
पास न आना
रोक रहा है
हम को ज़माना
दूर ही रहना
पास न आना
कैसे मगर कोई दिल को समझाये ए ए ए ए
रूप तेरा मस्ताना
प्यार मेरा दीवाना
भूल कोई हमसे न हो जाये

It is not true that the song was picturised in a single shot. Look at the close-ups using back projections and cl-ups of Sharmila in train windows and different long shots.

Bharat – Ava is right. You are referring to a different song! i.e. ‘Mere sapno ki rani’.

What a passionate song it is. Cannot believe that it was taken in a single shot. Hats off to sharmila ji and rajesh ji.

This song was picturised in a single shot. That is the unique thing about it. The actors had to get their angles and expressions right. And to be sure, they delivered beautifully. What a wonderful song this is, and so well presented.
Happy Birthday Shakti Samanta. He gave us some wonderful movies.
