Baap bhalaa na bhaiyya sabse bhalaa rupaiyya
Posted on: February 2, 2010
I have been posting the songs of “Sargam” (1950) here these days. It is while posting these songs that I am discovering these songs for the first time. What wonderful songs these are ! And I am also surprised at the number of such songs. There are at least a dozen such songs, and all of them just mind boggling. And it is just as mind boggling to realise that this movie has been forgotten today.
This movie was one of the biggest hits of its time. It had Raj Kapoor, Rehaana, Om Prakash etc in lead roles.
Here is this lovely song from this movie. This song can be described as a light hearted song, a song with a message, comedy song, serious song, stage song etc.
This song is sung by Rafi, Lata and C Ramchandra. C Ramchandra is the music director and the song is written by P L Santoshi.
Here in this song Rafi sings for Raj Kapoor. In other songs, it was C Ramchandra who had sung for Raj Kapoor.
It is a gem of a song. And I can say the same for every song from this movie.
Song-Baap bhalaa na bhaiyya (Sargam) (1950) Singers-C Ramchandra, Rafi, Lata, Lyrics- P L Santoshi, MD-C Ramchandra
Lyrics
suno shaab,

apne des su nikle the ham le ke lutiyaa-dori
kaudi-kaudi jodi ban gaye laalaa aaj karodi
mhaaro naam seth karodi
paas hamaare hatthi ghodaa paltan fauj sipahiyaa
lekin aise kaise bane ham
bol doon baapu

arre ki hai barkhurdaar
kahnaa to nahin chaahiye
lekin kyaa karoon hoon laachaar

ho kheton ke us paar
o kheton ke us paar
rahti hai gori gori,
ghareeb kisaan ki chhori
mujhe hai isase pyaar
baapu mujhe hai isase pyaar
haay, ki kahe, ki kahe,
pyaar ki hoy yaar pyaar ki hoy
ham to ek hi baat jaane
bol doon baapu
bol de betaa

theek hai baapu, main jaataa hoon
aap to jaane hain main beqasoor hoon
lekin majboor hoon
are kathe jaaye, kathe jaay,
meri baat bhi to sun
teri khaatir dekhi hai ek raajkumaari,
hai ek raajkumaari
jaa ghodaa lay aa
jaa ghodaa lay aa
kar jaane ki taiyaari
kar jaane ki taiyaari
heere ki hansali daungo,
moti ko haar daungo
lekin badle mein raajaa se, ek-ek ke hazaar laungo
kyaa shaadi bhi hai byopaar
haan betaa, ek-ek ke bane hazaar
ei kalmunhi ko chhod
tu pyaar se munh mod
arre paise se naataa jod
theek hai baapu,
maantaa hoon main aapki baat
laaiye wo jewaraat
leh le,
badhaa dou haath,
e ghodaa laao ghodo
baapu ji raam-raam
hamne banaa liyaa hai kaam
hamne banaa liyaa hai kaam
aap jaise baap ki soorat bhi dekhni hai haraam
aap jaise baap ki soorat bhi dekhni hai haraam
jo bete ke lagaate hain daam,
aur karte hain beech bazaar neelaam
e e e ki kahe,
arre ki kahe
hamaari saari umar ki kamayi gayi, chhodo re
haay daiyaa
bol doon baapu
haan haan bol de betaa
baap bhalaa na bhaiyaa bhaiyaa
sabse bhalaa rupaiyaa
baap bhalaa na bhaiyaa bhaiyaa
sabse bhalaa rupaiyaa
sabse bhalaa rupaiyaa, haay rupaiyaa, haay rupaiyaa
bhaiyaa sabse bhalaa rupaiyaa
saase bhalaa rupaiyaa, haay rupaiyaa, haay rupaiyaa

Arunji,
Just got little confused. Is Chitalkarji acting with Raj Kapoor? I thought he is Mumtaz Ali himself.
Can you help me identify actors in this song other than Raj Kapoor, Rehaana, Om Prakash & Baby Tabbasum?

This song was totally lifted by Mehmood in his film ‘sabse bada rupaiyya'(1976) as the song: ‘na biwi na bacha na bap bada na maiya/ the whole thing is that ke bhaiya sabse bada rupaiya,’ Later bluffmaster in 2005 lifted the same song. all under the name of inspiration as it is called now!

Yes, this one was fun! another one I had forgotten about.
Have you posted “aamdani atthanni, kharcha rupaiya, bhaiya na puchho haal..”?.. don’t know what era it was or what film, just the rupaiya reminded me of it.
