My Tribute To The Legendary Playback Singer -Suman Kalyanpur

One of the last living legends, Smt. Suman Kalyanpur is no more. I will write a few words and then post this song as a tribute to the legend.

In the golden era of Hindi film music, there were voices that entertained, voices that captivated, and voices that touched the soul. Among the most exquisite of these was the voice of Suman Kalyanpur— a singer whose artistry, grace, and humility earned her a special place in the hearts of music lovers.

#Sureelee Suman – Suman Kalyanpur – 28.01.1937 – 31.05.2026) #

Suman Kalyanpur the ‘Sureelee Suman’ of Hindi Film Music, and many regional languages music passed away on 31st May 2026. She was born on 28th January 1937. The news of her passing away came as a shock to music lovers. I got this news first on a WhatsApp group which I did not want to believe. When I checked on internet there was no such news. It was only on the next day that several sources carried this news and this bad news was confirmed.

As a music lover I had been listening to the voice of Suman Kalyanpur from early childhood. After coming into contact with this blog, I got the opportunity to share many of her songs and I enjoyed listening to these songs in the process of preparing their writeups.

“Insaaf Ka Mandir” (1969) was produced by Sherbahadur Singh and Jagdish Singh and was written and directed by BR Ishara. The movie had Sanjeev Kumar, Snehlata, Nadira, Asit Sen, Prithvi Raj Kapoor, Tarun Bose, Manmohan Krishna, Sapru, Laxmi Chhaya, Aruna Irani, Bela Bose, Mohan Sherry, Kanu Roy etc in it.

“Insaaf Ka Mandir” (1969) had six songs in it. Two songs have been covered in the past.

Here is the third song from the movie to appear in the blog. This song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur. Naqsh Llayalpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by Sapan Jagmohan.

The son is picturised on Aruna Irani and her saheli who I guess is Laxmi Chhaaya. I request our nowledgeable readers to help confirm/ refute my identification of the actress playing the saheli of Aruna Irani.

Today I am presenting a lesser heard melodious duet from an unreleased movie ‘Rani Chandravati-1960s’. It is a nice melodious song suitable to be heard at late night (viz fitting the category of chitrahaar song).

HFGK Vol-IV (1961-1970)mentions this movie under the section of Un-Released movies. Geet Kosh lists six songs leaving space for the possibility of more songs. Singers for all the six songs have been mentioned. Suman Kalyanpur and Subir Sen are the singers. Suman Kalyanpur has sung three solos, whereas Subir Sen has sung one solo.

S.N. Tripathi is the music director. Out of the six songs of the movie two are known to be penned by lyricist B.D. Mishra. The song being covered today is one of these two songs.

Our senior member Shree Sudhir jee had introduced this movie on the blog on 06.01.2016 by presenting tth December 2015, Sudhir jee has also mentioned the following about this today’s movie.

Today I bring on a very rare solo song from an unreleased film, ‘Rani Chandrawati’ from the 1960s. Some sources peg the year for this film as 1968. However, as per the Geet Kosh, this film was not released for exhibition.

The second song from this movie, in the voice of Suman Kalyanpur, was posted on the blog on 17.12.2025.

Today I am presenting the third song from this movie here. This song is a duet song in the voices of Suman Kalyanpur and Subir Sen.

Let us now listen to this rarely heard duet song …
