“Daak Babu” (1954) was a Jubilee Pictures presentation. The movie was directed by Lekhraj Bhakri and the starcast of the movie had Talat Mehmood, Nadira, Kuldip Kaur, Yashodhara Katju, Radha Krishan etc.
Here is a duet from this movie. It is sung by Talat Mehmood and Mubarak Begam. Only the audio of this song is available. Talat Mehmood obviously sang for himself. It is not clear who was the leading lady of this movie who lip synced on this song. It could be either Nadira or Kuldip Kaur.
This movie had as many as three lyricists, but I am not sure who wrote this song. Music was composed by Dhaniram.
I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this song, vis a vis its lyricist, picturisation etc.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Khyati Bhatt.
PS-It was repeatedly pointed out by Prakashchandra that this song has a Talat Mehmood solo version as well. I have now included the lyrics of that version as well.
chali nashe mein choor hawaayen
masti se bharpoor hawaayen chali nashe mein choor hawaayen
masti se bharpoor hawaayen
machal machal kar bijli chamke machal machal kar bijli chamke jyun naina matwaale
ghir ghir aaye badarwa kaare
chaaron ore hai khushi ka mela
raha na jaaye aaj akela
chaaron ore hai khushi ka mela
raha na jaaye aaj akela
baar baar mera man soona
baar baar mera man soona
kis ko aaj pukaare
ghir ghir aaye badarwa kaare
ghir ghir aaye badarwa kaare

chalin nashe mein choor hawaayen
masti se bharpoor hawaayen
chalin nashe mein choor hawaayen
masti se bharpoor hawaayen
machal machal kar bijli chamke
machal machal kar bijli chamke
