O kali anaar ki na itna sataao
Posted on: October 17, 2011
“Chhoti Behan” (1959) is a movie which was produced by Prasad Productions. It was directed by L V Prasad. The movie had actors like Balraj Sahni, Veena, Rehman, Shyama, Sudesh kumar, Nanda, Dhumal, Radha Krishan, Mehmood, Shubha/shobha Khote, Badri Prasad, KanchanMala, HariShivdasani, Keshav Rana, Jeevankala, Sheela Vaz, Moolchand etc in it.
This movie is well known for its songs, including the iconic raakhi song Bhaiyya mere raakhi ke bandhan ko nibhaana. So far three songs from this movie have been discussed in this blog.
Here is another song from the movie. it is a romantic duet sung by Manna Dey and Asha Bhonsle and it is picturised on Rehman and Shyama. I have been reading for decades that the picturisation of Hindi movie songs mostly involves the romancing couple running around trees, but I have rarely been able to watch such picturisations. In this picturisation, though, I was able to see the romancing duo running around a tree, albeit only briefly.
Shailendra is the lyricist. Music is composed by Shankar Jaikishan.

Lyrics(Provided by Prakashchandra)
O kali anaar ki na itnaa sataao
pyaar karne ki koyi reet bataao
o gunchhe gulaab ke
na batiyaan banaao
pehle kissi ko dil mein bithaao
o kali anaar ki itnaa na sathaao
pyaar karne ki koyee reet bataao
ho gunchhe gulaab ke na batiya banaao
pehle kissi ko dil mein bithaao
ankhiyaan gulaabi rangeen shabaab
humko pilaaye pyaar ki sharaab
padh lo hamaare dil ki kitaab
iss mein likha hai pyaar ka jawaab
ho bhari bahaar mein shor na machhaao
pyaar ka usool hai ghar mein bulaao
o kali anaar ki na itnaa sataao
pyaar karne ki koyi reet bataao
kar lo kabhi to hanske do baat
kaate kate na birhaa ki ye raat
aaoge jis din leke baaraat
de denge haathon mein ye haath
ho kissike pyaar ko pyaar se sajaao
jeewan bhar ka saath nibhaao
o kali anaar ki na itna sataao
pyaar karne ki koyi reet bataao
dil ka ye bhanwraa tujh pe nissaar
mere chaman ki tu hai bahaar
batiyaan tumhaari ras ki phuhaar
humne sunee hum dil gaye haar
ho kissi ke khwaab mein jhoomke to aao
chhoti chhoti baat par jee na jalaao
o kali anaar ki na itnaa sataao
pyaar karne ki koyi reet bataao
o gunchhe gulaab ke na batiya banaao
pehle kissi ko dil mein bithaao
o kali anaar ki na itnaa sataao
pyaar karne ki koyee reet bataao

Atul ji..
Actress Shyama died today. Was looking at some of the songs picturised on her. This was one good romantic duet.
Lyricist is Hasrat Jaipuri and not Shailendra as stated above
TQ
