Ba hosho hawaas mein deewaanaa
Posted on: September 13, 2010
If there was a Shammi Kapoor starrer called “an Evening in Paris” (1966) then the me too producers could be counted upon to come up with a product with similar sounding title. And they came up with “Night in London” (1967) starring Vishwajeet (poor man’s Shammi Kapoor) and Mala Sinha.
There was nothing poor about the music of this movie, though. Laxmikant Pyarelal, then then upcoming music director duo had begun to come up with oustanding music right from their debut four years ago.
Laxmikant Pyarelal, who were admirers of Shankar Jaikishan, composed the music of this movie in Shankar Jaikishan style.
Here is a song from “Night in London” (1967). If one is not aware of the name of the movie, one may be excused for thinking that it is a quintessential Rafi-Shammi Kapoor song. The song is of course sung by Rafi. Anand Bakshi has come up with Hasrat Jaipuri like lyrics.
The song is picturised on Vishwajeet and Mala Sinha.
This song is not all that well known. I personally heard this song for the first time only a few hours ago. But what a song ! It is a forgotten gem that needs to be brought to the notice of music lovers.

Song-Ba hosho hawaas mein deewaanaa (Night in London) (1967) Singer-Rafi, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD-Laxmikant Pyarelal
Lyrics
baa-hosho-hawaas mein deewaanaa
ye aaj waseeyat kartaa hoon
baa-hosho-hawaas mein deewaanaa
ye aaj waseeyat kartaa hoon
ye dil ye jaan mile tumko
main tumse muhabbat kartaa hoon
baa-hosho-hawaas mein deewaanaa
mere jeete jee yaar tumhe,
meri saari jaageer miley
mere jeete jee yaar tumhe,
meri saari jaageer miley
wo khwaab jo maine dekhe hain,
un khwaabon ki taabeer miley
har ek tamannaa ke badle
main aaj ye hasrat kartaa hoon
ye dil ye jaan mile tumko
main tumse muhabbat kartaa hoon
baa-hosho-hawaas mein deewaanaa
meri aankhon mein neend nahin,
mere honthon pe pyaas nahin
meri aankhon mein neend nahin,
mere honthon pe pyaas nahin
har cheez tumhaare naam huyi,
ab kuchh bhi mere paas nahin
tumne to loot liyaa mujhko,
main tumse shiqaayat kartaa hoon
ye dil ye jaan mile tumko
main tumse muhabbat kartaa hoon
baa-hosho-hawaas mein deewaanaa
