Preetam daras dikhaao
Posted on: November 18, 2010
Most music fans run away from classical music, especially the pucca raags as sung by Ustaads. Most songs in Hindi movies are still derived from classical raags, but they are light songs which are made easy for the ordinary music lovers to follow and appreciate.
There are songs in Hindi movies that I describe as semi classical songs. These are not meant to be as light as the normal Hindi songs, still light enough to be enjoyable even for lay public.
Here is a delightful semi classical song from “Chaacha Zindabad”(1959). This song, which is based on Raag Lalit is sung by Manna Dey and Lata. Rajinder Krishan is the lyricist. Madan Mohan, who was an enthusiastic visitor to classical music concerts and who himself had a deep understanding of classical music has composed a gem, which can be enjoyed even by ordinary listeners.
