‘Kehat Kabeer Suno Bhai Saadho. . .’
A refrain that is now a well known by line by which one can recognize that a particular bhajan is by Kabeer. A name that is now a household word wherever Hindi is spoken and understood. And a poet whose verses and dohas (couplets) have found their way into the everyday spoken Hindi, as proverbs and adages. Yesterday, the Jayeshtha Poornima, was the birth anniversary of this great poet saint of India.

While I searched for this song, Youtube had a number of audio links, no video links, and they all said only that this was a Rafi song from the film “Love in Canada”. The year is said to be 1979, but I am not too sure. When I heard the opening music of the song, I was convinced that it is an R D Burman song. Still to verify my hunch, I looked for info on earthmusic.net. But that website has no information of either this film or song. In this case even Google search engine was not of much help. Finally I remembered that there is a privately compiled list of all Rafi songs stored somewhere in my lap top. I found the excel format file and found the other details about this song. This is song no. 5337 in total 5373 songs rendered by Mohammed Rafi.

Though Kishore Kumar is known for being a fun loving individual, he tended to make serious movies as a producer (with the exception a few movies e.g. “Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi”). “Door Gagan Ki Chhaon Mein” (1964) was a serious movie which was a labour of love for Kishore Kumar. Serious labours of love like this movie did not have too many takers among movie goer those days and such movies tended to flop at the box office. This movie too failed at the box office.
