Thhoda hai thhode ki zaroorat hai
Posted on: September 30, 2008
Though 1970 was a decade when action movies had begun to dominate, there were small time movie makers who produced small budget family entertainers sans fights and action. Rajshri Productions, the Basus ( Basu Bhattacharya and Chatterji), Hrishikesh Mukherji and some South India producers were the ones who produced such movies.
Though these movies lacked stars most of the time, but the music in these movies was of a high quality. Such movies and their music created their own niche market.
Now, three decades after the release of these movies, no one recalls these movies, but the songs are still well known and pleasant to listen to.
Here is a very nice song from one such movie called “Khatta Meetha”. As can be seen, the creator of this song have impecable credentials. Gulzar has written this song, and Rajesh Roshan has composed it. Kishore and Lata have sung this song with verve and energy.
It is a feel good song created three decades before such a term was even coined. The song and its message is evergreen. That may be one of the reasons for the continued popularity of this song.
Song- Thodaa hai thode ki zaroorat hai ( Khatta Meetha) (1977) Singer-Lata, Kishore Kumar, Lyricist- Gulzar, MD- Rajesh Roshan
Lyrics
thodaa hai thode ki zaroorat hai
zindagi phir bhi ahaa khoobsoorat hai
thodaa hai thode ki zaroorat hai
jis din paisaa hogaa
wo din kaisaa hogaa
us din pahiye ghoomenge
aur qismat ke lab choomenge
bolo aisaa hogaa
thodaa hai thode ki zaroorat hai
sun sun sun hawaa chali sabaa chali
tere aanchal se ud ke ghataa chali
sun sun sun kahaan chali kahaan chali
main chhoone zaraa aasmaan chali
baadal pe udnaa hogaa
thodaa hai
thode ki
zaroorat hai
hamne sapnaa dekhaa hai
koi apnaa dekhaa hai
hamne sapnaa dekhaa hai
koi apnaa dekhaa hai
jab raat kaa ghoonghat utregaa
aur din ki doli guzregi
tab sapnaa pooraa hogaa
thodaa hai
thode ki
zaroorat hai
zindagi
phir bhi ahaa
khoobsoorat hai
thodaa hai
thode ki
zaroorat hai
