I was aware of four popular folklores of Punjab-Sind provinces which are now in Pakistan – Heer Ranjha, Mirza Sahiban, Sohni Mahiwal and Sassi Punnu. These are the tragic love stories in which the lovers die at the end. The common features of all these four folklores are (i) the female character is extremely beautiful, (ii) families of both the lovers resent their unions, (iii) female lovers are forced by their families to marry other man and (iv) at the end, female lovers die first followed by the male lovers except in case of Mirza Sahiban where the two lovers die in the reverse order.

It seems like “Saveray Wali Gaadi”(1986) makes a debut on this blog with this song. This reflects the fact that the film is hardly remembered now. The reason behind that is that the movie was not highly successful. Thus also sank the beautiful soundtrack of the movie. The songs are not vintage Pancham-stuff but they are very hummable and much better than what his stable would churn out in the later part of the 80s.
