Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 84

Today, 20th January 2026 is the 21st death anniversary of one of the most glamorous actress of the 70s and early 80s – Parveen Babi.

Parveen Babi was an iconic Indian actress and model who became one of the most successful and highest-paid stars in Hindi cinema during the 1970s and early 1980s. She was celebrated for her westernized fashion sense and glamorous screen presence, which broke traditional stereotypes of the era.

Born on April 4, 1954 in Junagadh, Gujarat, into the noble Babi Dynasty. She attended St. Xavier’s College, Ahmedabad, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. Her academic background was considered quite prestigious for a film actress at the time.

Pancham’s Music – Eighties-to-Nineties (1981-1994…) Duets-8

This duet composition by Rahul Dev Burman is from the 1990 movie ‘Dushman’. This title “Dushman” was also released in the years 1939, 1957, 1971 and 1998. All these four movies are already represented in the blog. “Dushman”(1990) came 19 years after “Dushman “(1971). Among all “Dushman” ( 🙂 ) I guess that the movie released in 1971 starring Rajesh Khanna in the title role (Dushman chaachaa 🙂 ) must be the most popular and successful of all these movies.

“Dushman”(1990) was directed by Shakti Samanta for ‘Shakti Films, Bombay’ i.e. his home productions. The cast of this movie has Mithoon Chakravarty, Mandakini, Sadashiv Amrapurkar, Alok Nath, Deepa Sahi, Tanuja, Biplab Chatterjee, Vijay Arora, Ranjeet, Tarun Ghosh, Manek Dutt, Bob Christo, Ravi Nandi, Shakti Thakur, Anirudh Agarwal and others. This movie was passed by the Censor Board on 12.03.1990.

Pancham’s Music – Eighties-to-Nineties (1981-1994…) Duets-7

Today’s Pancham composed duet is from the movie ‘Bahurani-1989’. I am not sure if I had watched this movie. It appears a familiar movie but I have no recollections about this movie.

In addition, we also have a movie titled ‘Teen Bahuraaniyaan’ in the blog released in 1968.

“Bahurani-1989” was directed by Manick Chatterjee for ‘Bemisal Films Pvt Ltd, Bombay’. Prem Lalwani and Mohan Lalwani were the producers of this movie and it was passed by Censor Board on 18.12.1989. The cast of this movie has Rekha, Rakesh Roshan, Utpal Dutt, Usha Kiran, Rakesh Bedi, Deven Verma, Urmila Bhatt, Guddi Maruti, Aasha Sharma, Darshan, Inderjeet, Sunder, Aruna Irani and others.

(Music Composer R.D. Burman’s Remembrance Anniversary)
——————————————————————

Today 4th January 2026 is the Remembrance Anniversary of Rahul Dev Burman fondly known by his nickname ‘Pancham’.

On this occasion we are paying our tributes to him by coverig a few of his compositions that have not yet been covered in the blog.

So far, we already have covered four songs composed by Pancham (including one shared by Nahm jee, which incidentally is a Pancham composition though not mentioned in the writeup). The earlier posts had songs sung by Mohd Rafi, Amit Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Yesudas and Kavita Krishnamurty. These four posts have taken care of several human emotions and moods except the feeling of sadness. Also so far, we have not covered a song in the voice of Kishore Kumar composed by Pancham today, without which the tributes will remain incomplete. In this post I am presenting a sad song sung by Kishore Kumar.
