I have posted a few songs from “Anand” (1970) in the past. I was not aware that I had not posted this song. there are so many nice songs in this movie that it is easy to lose track of these songs, This movie has outstanding songs sung by different singers.

Late 1960s was when Bollywood movie music was at its zenith. The quality and quantity of great songs those days was just mind boggling. Many great songs created those days found themselves to be marginalised and elbowed out in this stiff competition. No one has really chronicled all the great songs of those years, but I am sure that the number of such songs must be in several hundreds, if not in thousands.

I have listened to this song many times and liked it, but all this while I had no clue about its details. This is one of those songs that have gone on to get implanted on the psyche of those who grew up listening to this and other songs of those days.

I knew nothing about this movie and about this song. It is just that my dear internet friend Raja knew about this song. He in fact is so impressed with this song that he has posted this song in his blog and even provided a translation of the song. He had requested me to post this song here. I told him that I was going to shamelessly copy his translation, and he readily permitted me to plagiarise. 🙂

Few people, including me have heard of this movie called “Apna Ghar Apni Kahani” (1968). This movie had come in an era when we had a glut of classy songs, and I do not recall ever listening to songs of this movie. Not that I could have been able to identify the songs as belonging to this movie, had I heard the songs then.

I have posted two memorable songs from “Shart” (1954) in the past namely Na ye chaand hogaa na taare rahenge (Shart) and Dekho wo chaand chhupke kartaa hai kyaa ishaare (Shart) . This movie had another nice song in it which is not known to many people (including me) because that song is not available in the movie’s VCD. I became aware of this song only because of farmaish for this song by one of the visitors of this blog, viz. anverali valli.

Rafi-Shammi Kapoor songs are some of the most loved songs in Bollywood movies. Sometime ago, I had wondered what I was going to do if I run out of these Rafi-Shammi Kapoor songs to post. Well, I have posted over 2500 songs in this blog, and I find that I still have many Rafi-Shammi Kapoor songs not yet posted. So I still have lots of ground to cover.

Yesterday I stumbled upon a very old song. This song is a qawwaali and I was pleasantly surprised by it. This qawwali is from a movie called “Beqasoor” (1950).
