Bheegi bheegi raat mein ho gayi unse mulaaqaat
Posted on: May 9, 2013
“My Love” (1970) was an Atool Arts production movie. It was produced and directed by S Sukhdev. The movie had Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Laxmi Chhaaya, Azra, Madan Puri, Rajindernath, Nirupa Roy, Jayant, Raj Mehra, Ifthikar, Sulochana Chatterjee, Manorama, Pinchoo Kapoor, Prayag Raj, Mustafa, Jerry, Miss.Caron Leslie etc in it.
Today (9 may 2013) is the ninth death anniversary of Laxmi Chhaaya (1947- 9 may 2004). She died of breast cancer at a young age of 57. Her most memorable movie role was in “Mera Gaaon Mera Desh” (1971) and many people rightly wonder how she failed to make it big in Hindi movies. Her dances, especially the one in “Gumnaam” (1965) are the stuff of legends.
On the occasion of her death anniversary, here is a song from “My Love””(1970). The song is sung by Asha Bhonsle. The picturisation shows Sharmila Tagore lip syncing this song and Laxmi Chhaya dancing on this song. Shashi Kapoor, Madan Puri, Rajendranath, Prayraj etc are also visible in the picturisation of this song.
Anand Bakshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Daan Singh, another grossly underutilised talented artist.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.
PS-I am surprised to know that the dates of birth and death of Laxmi CHhaya are not easily available. Most internet sites only mention the years. The anniversary page of the blog had her date of death, but we are not aware of her deate of birth. I request our knowledgeable readers to tell us about that date.

Lyrics(Provided by Prakashchandra)
bheegi bheegi raat mein ho gayee
unn se mulaaqaat
kahoon kyaa aagey taubaa hai
aissee thi barsaat
chhudaake saanwariyaa se haath
kahaan koyee bhaagey taubaa hai
bheegi bheegi raat mein
ho gayee unn se mulaaqaat
kahoon kyaa aagey taubaa hai
dialogues
maine kahaa bas ghar jaane do
bole balam dil bhar jaane do
pyaar ki gali mein hamen mar jaane do
karnaa thaa inkaar
magar kar baithi main iqraar
ke jaadoo jaage taubaa hai
bheegi bheegi raat mein
ho gayee unn se mulaaqaat
kahoon kyaa aagey taubaa hai
door khadi thhi maari laaj sharam ke
itne mein zor ki bijlee chamkee
thaam lee maine dar ke
baanh balam ki
phir ho gayee majboor
ke ho naa paayee unn se door
ho naainaa laagey
taubaa hai
bheegi bheegi raat mein
ho gayee unn se mulaaqaat
kahoon kyaa aagey taubaa hai
aur kisee se tu ye baat na kehnaa
kyaa huaa sakhi kal raat na kehnaa
kal phir honge hum saath na kehnaa
chhede saaraa gaaon sambhal ke
laakh dharoon main paanv
ye paayal baaje taubaa hai
bheegi bheegi raat mein
ho gayee unn se mulaaqaat
kahoon kyaa aagey taubaa hai
aissee thi barsaat
chhudaake saanwariyaa se haath
kahaan koyee bhaagey taubaa hai
