Chhota sa ghar hoga baadlon ki chhaaon mein
Posted on: November 6, 2008
Legend has it that Salil Chaudhari, the leading music director of 1950s refused to take Kishore Kumar seriously on finding out that Kishore Kumar was untrained in classical music. But when he listened to Kishore Kumar’s voice, Salil Chaudhari changed his opinion and agreed to use Kishore Kumar’s voice in his forthcoming movie called “Naukri”, where Kishore Kumar incidentally was acting too.
Which was this song ? This song was “chhota sa ghar hoga baadalon ki chaaon mein”. Kishore Kumar may have been formally untrained in classical music, but just listen to this song. The voice would just bowl you over, that is how well Kishore Kumar has sung this song. This song has elements of comedy as well as seriousness , and Kishore Kumar brings out all the emotions so well in this song.
In this song, Noor plays Kishore Kumar’s sister and Achala Sachdev is their mother. Noor was the sister of actress Shakila and she later married Johny Walker.
This song was one of earlier songs sung by Kishore Kumar, and this song went a long way in establishing his reputation as a singer of repute.
This song has a Hemant Kumar version as well.

Lyrics
chhotaa saa ghar hogaa baadalon ki chhaanv mein
aashaa deewaani man mein bansuri bajaaye
chhotaa saa ghar hogaa baadalon ki chhaanv mein
aashaa deewaani man mein bansuri bajaaye
ham hi ham chamkenge taaro ke us gaanv mein
aankhon ki roshni har dam ye samjhaaye
chaandi ki kursi pe baithe meri chhoti bahnaa
chaandi ki kursi pe baithe meri chhoti bahnaa
sone ke sinhaasan pe baithe meri pyaari maan
meraa kyaa main padaa rahoongaa ammi ji ke paanv mein
meraa kyaa main padaa rahoongaa ammi ji ke paanv mein
aa ai re, aa ai re
aa ai re, aa ai re
chhotaa saa ghar hogaa baadalon ki chhaanv mein
aashaa deewaani man mein bansuri bajaaye
meri chhoti bahnaa naazon ki paali shahzaadi
meri chhoti bahnaa naazon ki paali shahzaadi
jitni bhi jaldi ho main kar doongaa iski shaadi
achchhaa hai ye balaa hamaari jaaye dooje gaanv mein
achchhaa hai ye balaa hamaari jaaye dooje gaanv mein
aa ai re, aa ai re
aa ai re, aa ai re
chhotaa saa ghar hogaa baadalon ki chhaanv mein
aashaa deewaani man mein bansuri bajaaye
kahegi maan dulhan laa betaa ghar soonaa soonaa hai
kahegi maan dulhan laa betaa ghar soonaa soonaa hai
man mein jhoom kahoongaa main maan itni jaldi kyaa hai
gali gali mein tere raaj dulaare ki charchaa hai
gali gali mein tere raaj dulaare ki charchaa hai
aakhir koyi to aayegaa in nainon ke gaanv mein
aakhir koyi to aayegaa in nainon ke gaanv mein
aa ai re, aa ai re
aa ai re, aa ai re
chhotaa saa ghar hogaa baadalon ki chhaanv mein
aashaa deewaani man mein bansuri bajaaye
ham hi ham chamkenge taaro ke us gaanv mein
aankhon ki roshni har dam ye samjhaaye

Interesting to note that this song has a Malayalam version too.
Yes, Salil Chaudhary created some classy music in Bollywood, as well as in movies of other languages.

Hey, this song also had a couple of lines by a female singer. She’s been identified as Shaila Belle. Would you know if she was a one song wonder or if she had other songs to her credit too?

The singers are Kishore Kumar and Usha Mangeshkar.
And not Savita Chaudhar .. references from knowledgeable person and Wikipedia.
What’s correct?
