Nigaahon ne phenka hai
Posted on: December 14, 2008
The movie is called “Jaali Note” viz “couterfeit note”. The movie had Dev Anand and Madhubala in lead roles.
Helen was beginning to make her presence felt in those days in the sense that she was beginning to get a song every movie. This trend of one Helen song per movie would last for nearly two decades.
Here is the Helen song and dance from “Jaali Note”. This incidentally is a duet between Rafi and Asha Bhonsle, so Dev Anand and Helen share the floor in this song.
The lyrics by Anjaan and music by O P Nayyar are far different from the lyrics and music that we have come to associate with Helen dances. And this song is a rare walk down memory lane for Helen fans.
Song- Nigaahon ne phenka hai (Jaali Note) (1960) Singers- Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Lyrics-Anjaan, MD- O P Nayyar
Lyrics
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
balam teraa-meraa huaa pyaar pakaa
muhabbat mein dil ko lagaa aisaa dhakkaa
muhabbat mein dil ko lagaa aisaa dhakkaa
chali aankh main rah gayaa hakkaa-bakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
ghataaon ke ghoonghat mein chandaa chhupaaye
labon par chamak bijliyon ki sajaaye
labon par chamak bijliyon ki sajaaye
mere dil mein aise qadam toone rakhaa
mere dil mein aise qadam toone rakhaa
chali aankh main rah gayaa hakkaa-bakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
muqaddar ho raazi to duniyaa bhi raazi
muqaddar ne aa kar ye duniya jhukaa di hai
muqaddar ne aa kar ye duniya jhukaa di hai
tere haath hai aaj qisamat kaa yakkaa
tere haath hai aaj qisamat kaa yakkaa
balam teraa-meraa huaa pyaar pakaa
muhabbat mein dil ko lagaa aisaa dhakkaa
ishaara jo kar de ye mahfil suhaani
laga doon abhi daaon pe zindaagani
laga doon abhi daaon pe zindaagani
aji main hoon aashiq na samjho uchakka
aji main hoon aashiq na samjho uchakka
chali aankh main rah gayaa hakkaa-bakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa
balam teraa-meraa huaa pyaar pakaa
muhabbat mein dil ko lagaa aisaa dhakkaa
muhabbat mein dil ko lagaa aisaa dhakkaa
chali aankh main rah gayaa hakkaa-bakkaa
nigaahon ne phenkaa hai panje pe chhakkaa

Wow what a find this is. Helen looks beautiful and smart. She had all that it takes to have become a top notch heroine. If she went on to become a superstar, we would have lost all those wonderful Helen songs :).
By the way, this song would qualify to be a Helen Song right?
