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.
I heard this song for the first time in the late 80s on an audio-cassette with Gulzar songs. The dramatic introduction led me to think that it is a ghost song. The advent of youtube brought the real situation to light. This is a background-song about the travails of a suffering woman at the hands of her husband (Raza Murad ?) and mother-in-law (who else but Lalita Pawar). This is but just an intermediate station to the whole tragedy.
Pacifist Immer, who has posted some guest posts on my blog helped me with the lines “apne saleeben aap hi uthaaye”. Thank you, Pacifist!
Song-Din jaa rahe hain (Doosri Sita)(1974) Singer- Lata Mangeshkar, Lyrics-Gulzar, MD-R D Burman
Lyrics
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
apne saleeben aap hi uthhaaye
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
apne saleeben aap hi uthhaaye
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
jab koi doobaa
raaton ka saaya
koi saveraa
waapas na aayaa
waapas jo aaye
veeraan saaye
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
jeenaa to koi
mushkil nahin thhaa
magar doobne ko
saahil nahin thha
saahil se koi
ab to bulaaye
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
saanson ki dori
chhoote na toote
zara zindagi se
daaman to chhoote
koi zindagi ke
haath na aaye
din jaa rahe hain
ke raaton ke saaye
apne saleeben aap hi uthhaaye
din jaa rahe hain
Tu jahaan miley mujhe

Doosri Sita got released in 1974 and sank without a trace, taking with it the musical score. Only in the course of R D Burman revival, did the songs resurface again. I remember listening to them on radio in the late 70s and early 80s on Vividh Bharati. The name Doosri Sita, though never really registered itself in my mind.

In Hindi movies there have been songs picturised on several means of transportation, viz horse, bullock carts, tonga, chariots, cars, jeeps, trucks, boats, aircrafts etc. There have been songs picturised on less common methods of transportation too, viz. camels, elephants etc as well.

Manoranjan (1974), Shammi Kapoor’s first film as a director, seems to have only four songs. That is a bit surprising for me. I’d expected it to have more. So this could be the last song to come in from this film.

Hi all
I am discussing another great to watch Jodi today. Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit. This is on farmaish from my daughter. She feels that they did some great work together in “Beta”, “Ram Lakhan”, “Kishen Kanhaiya”, “Khel” etc. These two acted together for the first time in “Tezaab” and Anil Kapoor has said in some interview a long time back that he was so impressed by the (then) young and hard working Madhuri that he recommended her to Subhash Ghai for the then under making “Karma”. And it seems they even shot a whole song after which Ghai thought that it was not wise to waste such a lot of talent for a guest appearance song and took her on for his next “Ram Lakhan”.

Manoranjan (1974) was Shammi Kapoor’s first film as a director. He roped in R D Burman the reigning music director of that time to give music to his debut film as a director. Shammi Kapoor had in fact given Pancham his first biggest hit with Teesri Manzil (1966). But unfortunately Manoranjan flopped. The songs of this film were hits all the same.

Since ‘chaudhvin ka chaand ho ya aaftaab ho’ from the film ‘ Chaudhvin ka chaand ‘, no one had really attempted to recreate the magic of it. The reason is obvious that it is a tough act to follow. The beauty of that song in black n white is not comparable to anything.
