Aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
Posted on: February 3, 2013
“Aap Ki Marzi” (1939) is by now a forgotten movie with hardly any information available on this movie.
Here is a song from this movie. This song is sung by Khurshid. P L Santoshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Gyan Dutt.
Only the audio of this song is available and little is known about the cast of this movie so it is difficult to say how and on whom this song is picturised. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more more light on this movie as well as on the picturisation of this song.
Song-Aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye (Aap Ki Marzi)(1939) Singer-Khurshid, Lyrics-P L Santoshi, MD-Gyan Dutt
Lyrics
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar
dolat man matwaara mora
dolat man matwaara mora
phoola nahin samaaye ae ae
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar
lagan lagi thhi jinki man mein
unke darshan paaye
nainan ne hans hans kar
charnan mein
sukh ke phool chadhaaye
sukh ke phool chadhaaye
hey
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar
wo aaye
wo aaye
sang sawera laaye
wo aaye
wo aaye
sang sawera laaye
soye bhaag jagaaye
hey
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar mehmaan aaye
aaj mere ghar

Atul ji,
AAPKI MARZI-1939 was a Sudama Prodn.’s film.The director was Sarvottam Badami-a well known name in those days to direct funny,comedy and hilarious movies.In his days,he was one of the most sought after directors.Thew music was by the grand old man of HFM,
Gyan Dutt.The lyricists were P L Santoshi,wellknown for light and comedy songs and S P Kalla.
The cast included Motilal as Sumant,Sabita Devi as Shashi,Majhar as Sir Bansilal and Govind lal, Khursheed as Manjiri, K>N>Singh,Sethi,Sunalini devi etc.
The story takes place in Bombay’s rich area Nepian Sea Road,where Seth Sir Bansilal stays with his wife-Susheela(sunalini devi) and niece Shashi.Bansilal is very fond of solving crossword puzzles and Shashi helps him.In one such contest,where he contested as an ordinary man Govindlal,he gets the second prize.The first prize is won by a handsome youngbut jobless man Sumant.The prize is a trip to Kashmir.
Bansilal’s wife sends Shashi with him to keep an eye on him and take his care.As Bansilal is going there as a common man Govindlal,they decide that Shashi and Govindlal will act as strangers in the hotel.Unknown to them,his wife has made arrangements for Bansilal in his real name in Shalimar Hotel,Kashmir.
All 3 persons arrive on the same day,First comes Sumant,who is mistaken as Sir Bansilal and given the best room and due respect etc.He gets confused but enjoys all this.Govindlal is given an ordinary room andn Shashi takes a good room.
In the hotel,Shashi accidentally breaks some valuable pots Sumant is carrying and they start fighting.The hotel manager comes,pacifies them and tells Shashi not to trouble Sir Bansilal.Shashi is shocked.She goes to his room and says if you are Bansilal,I am your niece.They start fighting again.Govindlal comes and pacifies them .Sumant learns that he is the second winner and calls him for dinner.Shashi also forces herself on the dinner. Shashi and Sumant fall in love.
The film falls on usual song,danceunderstanding,misunderstanding and interference by the Hotel girl Manjiri sequences.Manjiri tries to blackmail Sumant to extract some money,but finally,Sir Bansilal discloses his identity and all is well at the end.
It was a very entertaining film.When I saw this film,the print was in terrible state and songs were not heard properly.I do not know if this film copy is still available.
The film had 11 songs by gyan Dutt,Sabita Devi,Vasanti, and Khursheed.
