Dhadakne lagta hai mera dil tere naam se

When it comes to Shammi Kapoor, the popular image of him is as a suave gentleman who romances his ladies by singing great songs in Rafi’s voice. But I have realised that it is only part of the larger picture.
For one Shammi Kapoor does not always play a suave gentleman. He has also played ghastly looking woman, like for instance in “Kashmir Ki Kali”(1964) where he plays Anoop Kumar’s hefty burqa clad wife and sings Subhan Allah haseen chehra(Kashmir ki kali), in Rafi’s voice, of course.
But Shammi Kapoor has not always sung in Rafi’s voice. In addition to Rafi, I have seen Shammi Kapoor singing in the voices of Talat Mehmood, Mukesh, Manna Dey, Hemant Kumar and even himself. In fact, Shammi Kapoor has not limited himself just to male voices- he has also sung in a female voice. Here is the evidence( Oy chali chali kaisi hawa ye chali (Bluffmaster)), where a ghastly looking cross dressing Shammi Kapoor sings in Shamshad Begam’s voice.
If you think you have seen it all with Shammi Kapoor, then wait. You may have seen him romancing petite ladies like Saira Bano,Sharmila Tagore,Mala Sinha, Kalpana, Amita etc, but that is not all.Shammi Kapoor has even romanced a hefty salwar kurta clad Mehmood ! Yes, our Shammi Kapoor is quite an allrounder in these matters, it would appear.
Here is Shammi Kapoor romancing Mehmood in this song from “Dil Tera Deewaana” (1962). The song is sung by Rafi. Hasrat Jaipuri is the lyricist and music is composed by Shankar HJaikishan.

Lyrics(Provided by Peevesie’s mom)
bow! bow wow!
bow! bow wow!
Dhadakne lagta hai
mera dil tere naam se
dhadakne lagta hai
mera dil tere naam se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
dhadakne lagta hai
mera dil tere naam se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
Bow! Bow Wow!
Bow! Bow Wow!
mere dil mein jabse toota
tere nain ka teer
dil mein rehkar ban gaya woh toh
teri hi tasveer
neend nahin aati hai mujhko aaram se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
dhadakne lagta hai
mera dil tere naam se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
Bow! Bow Wow!
Bow! Bow Wow!
teri baaten tere kisse
rehte hain hardum
mehfil ho ya veeraana ho
ya koyi mausam
darte nahin hain hum
ishq ke anjaam se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
dhadakne lagta hai
mera dil tere naam se
aisa lagta hain ke ab hum
gaye kaam se
dha dha dha dha
dhadakne lagta hai mera dil tere naam se
aisa lagta hai ke ab hum
gaye kaam se

can anybody ever sing like this. generations have to wait. sorry we are not going to have this voice any more. music directors and few heros have abstracted and overutilised rafi jees voice. with some most dificult numbers.and rafi obliged evey music director.and showed no sign of pain while dilivering the songs.and that is the reason for his untimly death. may his soul rest in peace

I love this song. I guess that is the case with all Shammi-Rafi song combination :).
