Ae saamne aane waale bataa

“Gareebi” (1949) is a movie that was produced by Ranjit Movie company. It was directed by Ramchandra Thakur and the star cast of the movie included names like Geeta Bali, Jairaj, Nirupa Roy, P. Kailash, Usha Kiran, Ramesh Thakur, Jawahar Kaul etc in it.
I am not much aware of this movie, but from the cast, this movie appears to be a A grade movie.
Here is a song from this movie that I just came across. It is a song that made me sit up and take notice. Waah, waah ! What a gem of a song. and I am surprised to realise that a song of this calibre is so obscure. or perhaps this song is better known and I may be the only one who had never heard it before.
This lovely duet is sung by Rafi and Shamshad Begam. M G Adeeb is the lyricist. Music is composed by Bulo C Rani.
Looking at the cast, it is my guess that this song is picturised on Jairaj and Geeta Bali. I could be wrong too, and I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and this song.
Song-Ae saamne aane waale bataa (Gareebi) (1949) Singers-Rafi, Shamshad Begam, Lyrics-M G Adeeb, MD-Bulo C Rani
Lyrics
Ae saamne aane waale bataa
kyun chaand mera mujhse hai khafa
kuchh bolo
ye phool sa mukhdaa kholo
ae saamne aane waale bataa
kyun chaand mera mujhse hai khafa
kuchh bolo
ye phool sa mukhdaa kholo
chalo hato
chalo hato jee ham bas roothh gaye
bas roothh gaye
bas roothh gaye
chalo hato
chalo hato jee ham bas roothh gaye
bas roothh gaye
bas roothh gaye
aashaaon ke chashme phoot gaye
mere sabr ke bandhan toot gaye
aashaaon ke chashme phoot gaye
mere sabr ke bandhan toot gaye
saajnaa saajna
saajnaa saajna
dil maan gayaa
ae saamne aane waale bataa
kyun chaand mera mujhse hai khafa
kuchh bolo
ye phool sa mukhdaa kholo
mujhe dil mein apne rehne de
mujhe dil mein apne rehne de
ye raaz e muhabbat kehne de
ye raaz e muhabbat kehne de
is prem bhare saagar mein tu
is prem bhare saagar mein tu
mere man ki naiyya behne de
ho mere man ki naiyya behne de
saajnaa saajnaa
saajnaa saajnaa
dil maan gayaa
dil maan gayaa
dil maan gayaa jee
dil maan gayaa
ae saamne aane waale bataa
kyun chaand mera mujhse hai khafa
kuchh bolo
ye phool sa mukhdaa kholo
ae saamne aane waale bataa

GARIBI(1949),a Ranjit movietone film had music by its contracted composer B C Rani and lyricists were Rajendra Krishna,Shevan Rizvi,B.R.Sharma and M G Adeeb.
I dont know whether Chandulal Shah ever knew on what storylines their movies were being produced on the assembly line,because not only all 4 set-sections of Ranjit studios were always shooting some films but sometimes they used to hire the neighbouring Sharda studios also.
This was one movie which eulogized the virtues of poverty(Garibi) as compared to Riches(Amiri).Geeta Bali,hailing from a poor family loves and gets married to rich Jairaj.She finds it difficult to adjust to the rich ways of her sasural,perticularly Saas-Sasur(Tarabai-Bhupat Rai),while her poor mother(Nirupa Roy) and Father(P.Kailash) get poorer but they have very high ideals and come to the rescue of their rich relatives when there is a problem with their daughter(Usha Kiran),who is in trouble with her husband(Jawahar Kaul).
Having learnt that only Money can not give happiness,the rich family respects the poor and poverty.This was a very unconvincing storyline and badly handled too.The only saving grace was its superb music.
