Chori chori meri gali aana hai buraa
Posted on: March 26, 2009
In early 1950s, when Bollywood music was breaking off from the influence of Indian classical music, many other kinds of music were influencing Bollywwod music scene. And one such kind of music was western music.
C Ramchandra and S D Burman were two leading music directors who introduced western influence to Bollywood music.
Take this music “Jaal” (1952) for example. The fact that the story and the plot itlself was influenced from some “Western” movie definitely heelped. In this movie, everyone is seen dressed in “Western” style.
I have mentioned it a few times that Dev Anand managed to have a long career without dancing even once. Well, in this song, Dev Saab is required to dance, and he manages to get over it by shaking one arm ( instead of shaking a leg) and by ging round and round with Geeta Bali. One cannot call it dance, but I suppose one should grant it to Dev Saab and describe it as the only occasion when Dev Saab is seen “dancing” in a Bollywood movie.
The song is sung by Lata and picturised on Geeta Bali. Sahir Ludhianvi had written this song and S D Burman was the music director.
Song-Chori chori meri gali aana hai buraa (Jaal) (1952) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Sahir Ludhianvi, MD-S D Burman
Lyrics
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
aaig!
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
achchhe nahin ye ishaare
pedon tale chhup-chhupaake
aao na do baaten kar len
nazron se nazre milaa ke
din hain pyaar ke, mauj bahaar ke
din hain pyaar ke, mauj bahaar ke
dekho bhole bhaale dil ko tadpaanaa hai buraa
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
aaig!
dil aa gayaa hai to pyaare
badnaam hone kaa dar kyaa?
ishq-aur-wafaa ki gali mein
duniyaa ke gham kaa guzar kyaa?
din hain pyaar ke, mauj bahaar ke
din hain pyaar ke, mauj bahaar ke
dekho bhole bhaale dil ko tarsaana hai buraa
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
aaig!
din hain pyaar ke mauj bahaar ke
din hain pyaar ke mauj bahaar ke
dekho bhole bhaale dil ko tarsaana hai buraa
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
aaig!
chori chori meri gali aanaa hai buraa
aaig
aa ke binaa baat kiye jaanaa hai buraa
aaig!

This is the first time I see Dev Anand dancing in such steps.
By the way, the person blowing trumpet at 0:22 looks to me to be Raj Khosla.
