Chala jaata hoon kisi ki dhun mein
Posted on: January 17, 2009
“Mere Jeewan Saathi” was a Rajesh Khanna movie during his heyday. And like most movies, the movie was full of great songs.
Here is one of these songs, which is arguably the most popular song from this movie, though perceptions may vary from person to person.
It is a “car” song, where Rajesh Khanna is seen driving as well as singing. Now,listening to music while driving was technologically not possible those days, so Bollywood heroes would sing while drive. Rajesh Khanna himself was seen doing that in “Aradhana” and now in “Mere Jeewan Saathi”. Considering what happens at the end of the song, perhaps Bollywood needed a traffic rule stating that “singing while driving was injurious to driver’s health” .
But as we all know, following safety regulations has never been the strong suit of Bollywood movies, so here is this Bollywood car song “Chala jaata hoon kisi ki dhun me”. It is sung by Kishore Kumar.Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist whereas R D Burman is the music director.

Lyrics
chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
milan ki masti, bhari aankhon mein
hazaaron sapne, suhaane liye,
ho chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
ye masti ke, nazaaren hain, to aise mein
sambhalnaa kaisaa meri qasam
tu lahraati, dagariyaa ho, to phir kyun naa
chalun main bahkaa bahkaa re
mere jeewan mein, ye shaam aayi hai
muhabbat waale, zamaane liye,
ho chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
wo aalam bhi, ajab hogaa, wo jab mere
kareeb aayegi meri qasam
kabhi baiyaan chhudaa legi, kabhi hanske
gale se lag jaayegi haay
meri baahon mein, machal jaayegi
wo sachche jhoothe bahaane liye,
ho chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
bahaaron mein, nazaaron mein, nazar daaloon
to aisaa laage meri qasam
wo nainon mein, bhare kaajal, ghoonghat khole
khadi hai mere aage re
sharam se bojhal jhuki palkon mein
jawaan raaton ke fasaane liye,
ho chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
milan ki masti, bhari aankhon mein
hazaaron sapne, suhaane liye,
ho chalaa jaataa hoon, kisi ki dhun mein
dhadakte dil ke, taraane liye
lalalala lalalalalala
hehe he ho ho
lalalalalallala

This used to be my favourite song at one point in time.
At various times I have had “favourite songs” – the phase could last a month, it could last 6 months, it could last longer.
Then a new song would take over.
I distinctly remember this song having its phase.
Btw, there is at least one song which is played on the radio – and the hero/heroine who are in a car listen to the song.
I am not going to mention the song right now – I am putting it in the trivia section of membsaab’s blog. 🙂
