Ganga ki reti pe bangla chhawaayi de
Posted on: June 13, 2012
“Mirza Ghalib” (1954) was based on the life of Mirza Ghalib. This movie was a Minerva Movietone production and it was directed by Sohrab Modi. the movie had Bharat Bhushan, Suraiyya, Murad, Durga Khote, Jagdish Sethi, Nigar Sultana, Mukri, Baij Sharma, Kumkum, Sadat Ali, Iftekhar, Roshan etc in it.
The movie had eleven songs it it. Ten songs from this movie have already been discussed in the past. Here is the eleventh and final song from this movie. This song is sung by Sudha Malhotra. It is one of the two songs from this movie that are written by Shakeel Badayuni, with the remaining songs credited to Mirza Ghalib.
Picturisation shows this song seemlessly transform into another song from the movie, viz Aah ko chaahiye ik umr asar hone tak which has already been discussed in the past.
Music of this song is composed by Ghulam Mohammad.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by nahm.
PS-I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify the dancer who lip sync this song before Suraiyya takes over.

Arunji, do u know what happened to Kumkum after that? It seemed she was very close to Ramanand Sagar, who kept giving her prominent roles later on in Aankhen, Lalkar, Jalta Badan, etc.
