This often happens with me. I listen to songs of a movie I know little about, and then find out that the movie contained one outstanding song after another.

Haay re tere chanchal nainwa

“Oonche log” (1965), not to be confused with “Oonche log” (1985) was an interesting movie which had no role for females. The supposed leading lady of the movie hardly had any role or dialogues in the movie. I cannot understand the reason behind such misogyny on the part of the makers of this movie.

I have stumbled upon yet another “new” song for me. The movie is called “aao pyaar karen”. It has Joy Mukherjee and Saira Bano as the lead actors and this is a movie from 1964, so one can safely assume that the story line has got to be similar to Shammi Kapoor movies of those days.

Chale thhe saath milkar

To this date, I have not been able to understand how Shashi Kapoor survived for so long as a hero. I have noticed that most of his sucessful movies succeeded because he figured in multi starrers, where other stars carried the movie on their shoulders. And on the few occasions where Shashi Kapoor was the solo hero, the movie succeeded because of the music rather than because of Shashi Kapoor’s great histrionics. Do not tell me that “chor Machaaye shor”, for instance owes its success to Shashi Kapoor, and not to its music.

Wow, what a song ! I have listened to this song many a times even though I did not have an inkling about which movie this song was from, or even who the singers were. I thought that Mukesh and Lata were the singers. But I find now that the female voice is Suman Kalyanpur. I think Suman Kalyanpur has sung similar number of songs as Mukesh and she had a Mukesh like midas touch too. A large number of her songs have gone on to become very popular, just like how it was with Mukesh.

Most Bollywood songs are general in nature where they use common noun, but there are occasions when Bollywood songs use proper noun too.
