Khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun ka
Posted on: October 24, 2008
We all have seen and enjoyed Mahmood singing “Hum kaale hain to kya hua dilwaale hain” in Gumnaam. Some two decades later, Manmohan Desai has Amitabh Bachchan doing a Mahmood in “Desh Premee”.
Desh Premee was one of the lesser known and less successful Manmohan Desai movie. I have no idea why. I loved this movie. Watching this movie was great fun. I liked its story line, and I loved the main characters viz Amitabh and Hema Malini. And all songs of this movie were just wonderful.
In this fun song, Amitabh is in a Hyderabadi getup wearing striped lungi and colourful chaddi and he stalks Hema Malini all over the town singing and Dancing Hyderabadi istyle, which is clearly inspired from Mahmood’s dance in “Gumnaam” in the song “hum kaale hain to kya hua dilwaale hain”.
In my personal view, this song should be regarded as one of greatest picturisation of a comedy song in Bollywood, and this song must figure in the list of the very best comedy songs that Kishore Kumar has sung in his career.
Here is this song. Enjoy.
Song- Khatoon ki khidmat me (Desh Premee) (1982) Singers-Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD-Laxmikant Pyarelal
Lyrics
ari o potti kahaan challi
palat meri annaar ki khalli
badtameez
badtameez
aapko bola jee
hai hai hai hai
kainchi
tune chalti to
mere dil ko
piece piece ko kaat kaat ko chhalti
salaam
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
aji potti pataanaa hai
bhai potti pataanaa hai
aji potti pataanaa hai faqat kaam apun kaa
ghar-baar huaa ishq mein neelaam apun kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
potti
pareshan
maine haatha pakde to tune daanta aise nakko
aise bataayen
kya baat karta hai hat
haan
baataan nahin karte ham Hyderabadi
baataan nahin karte ham Hyderabadi
haathaan mein tere jo mehndi na lagaa di
to naam nahin lenge kabhi apne watan kaa
kabhi apne watan kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
tu cheez azab hai
tu baap ghazab hai
tu cheez azab hai
o baap ghazab hai
hungama sadak par hone ka sabab hai
hungama sadak par hone ka sabab hai
police ko bulao khatra hai aman hai
khatra hai aman hai
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
taane din tandaanaa tandaanaa tandaanaa
gulbadan
khaadim ke haathaan se
munh mein daal ko chabaayenge kyaa
paan
ye paanaa mein mere kaleje ke tukde supaari ki jagah rakh ko
chabar-chabar chabar ke chabar jaa
mar mitne mein jaanam ham logaan hain maahir
mar mitne mein jaanam ham logaan hain maahir
ghus kar tere dil mein niklenge na baahir
ghus kar tere dil mein niklenge na baahir
kharchaa ho kafan kaa na charchaa ho dafan kaa
charchaa ho dafan kaa
khaatoon ki khidmat mein salaam apun kaa
aji potti patana hai
bhai potti patana hai
aji potti patana hai fakat kaam apan ka
ghar baar hua ishq me neelam apun ka
khatoon ki khidmat me salaam apun ka
taane din tandaana tandaana tandaana
mashooq
pahchaane kya
aashiq hoon
raasta chhod
hai
ek baar pakde to chhodte nahin
utha ko le jaate zaalim
hallu hallu maar
teri kalai marod jayegi to

Striped Lungi.
I remember this movie being released when I was in Delhi. Around the same time as Kaalia.
It was quite a good movie. And this song is hilarious.
