Ye kiya toone kaisa jaadoo
Posted on: March 5, 2013
“Zimbo” (1958) was a Basant Pictures production. It was directed by Homi Wadia. The movie had Azad, Azad, Krishna Kumari, Adeeb, Achla Sachdev, Sheikh, Dalpat, Pedro, B M Vyas, Sardar Mansoor, Habib etc in it.
I am not much familiar with this movie. Going by the picturisation of this song, I guess that Zimbo (played by Azaad) is a Tarzan like character who is brought up by wild animals. If he is a Tarzan like character then the Jane character cannot be far behind, and more so if it is a Hindi movie.
Here is a song from “Zimbo” (1958). It is an out and out A+ song from a B movie. It is a surprise that such a fantastic song failed to get popular for lack of proper marketing.
The song is sung by Asha Bhonsle. Tarzan and Zimbo are not supposed to be able to speak in human language, but Hindi movies are different. Zimbo tries to speak and by the end of the song he is able to utter the word “jaadu”. I recall that in the next century, an alien also learns to utter the very same word in “Koi Mil Gaya” (2003).
The song itself is a magical song. It is sung by Asha Bhonsle. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by Chitragupta.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Khyati Bhatt.

Lyrics(Provided by Khyati Bhatt)
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
aaa
aaa
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
udne lagaa dil mera
chaahat ki hawaaon mein
chhaane lagi masti si
matwaali ghataaon mein
udne lagaa dil mera
chaahat ki hawaaon mein
chhaane lagi masti si
matwaali ghataaon mein
ham jo chale
phool khile
aayi ajab khushboo
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
badhne lagi thhi had se
kuchh pyaas nigaahon ki
mil hi gayi zulfon si
maujen teri baahon ke
badhne lagi thi had se
kuchh pyaas nigaahon ki
mil hi gayi zulfon si
maujen teri baahon ke
aaya mazaa
ek nasha
chhaane laga harsoo
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
aaa
haa
haaa
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
aa aa aa
aa aa aa
hai to bahut dilwaale
par tujh ko kahaan samjhe
aa aa aa
aa aa aa
hai to bahut dilwaale
par tujh ko kahaan samjhe
ban ke tere deewaane
hum teri zubaan samjhe
uff ye nazar
jaan e jigar
jaadugar hai tu
aa aa aa
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
kaabu
ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu
jaadu
dil pe nahin hai mujhe kaabu
kaabu
aa aa aa

Zimbo was a colour film (geva color). It was advertised as the first Jungle color film of India. It was dubbed into Telugu and Tamil also. I saw theTelugu dubbed movie in my school days.It was a hit too.

Atulji,
Thanks a lot for posting this song. We can proudly say to Ashaji, “Ye kiya toone kaisa jaadu…..” I also had no idea about the movie or song before. Just saw it first time on YT and loved it. Thanks again.
