The failure of Doosri Sita(1974) at the box-office resulted in the disappearance of the good musical score of this film from the collective memory. My favourite from this film is this highly melancholic background song.

The quest for songs picturized in the desert location, brings me back to this movie ‘Ham Dil De Chuke Sanam’ (1999).

The name is a handful, so its is shortened to HDDCS. This song is named mostly as ‘man mohini teri adaa’. As I typed the lyrics, no where are the these lines repeated, so that line is not a mukhdaa. I thought it better to name it by first line.

Most of us have seen this movie ‘Chak De India’ made by Yashraj films and directed by Shimit Amin. There is no way to avoid seeing this on T.V. as it is there at least once a month on a weekend on some movie channel or the other. This was I think the Shah Rukh Khan response to Amir Khan-Jhamu sugandh oscar nominated ‘Lagaan’. The logic being whatever Amir Khan can do, SRK can do even better. Once upon a time the healthy competition between these two was invigorating. It gave us some fine films to see and enjoy.

Here comes song no. 4 of ‘desert’ songs series. This is a personal favorite from the film “Ham dil de chuke Sanam”(1999). Since the story was in Rajasthan, so there are a few songs in the film picturized in desert location. This is a qawwali type sad song. First part of the song is in desert. The second stanza plays in the film right at the end. The video link I have found is only the first part of the song. However the audio link has full audio of the song.
