“Bandhan” (1940) was a Bombay Talkies production. It had Ashok Kumar and Leela Chitnis in lead roles in this movie. Suresh, V H Desai, Arun Kumar etc were some of the other actors in it.

Five songs from this movie have been discussed in the past.

Today (6 february 2014) is the 99th birth anniversary of Kavi Pradeep (6 february 1915-11 december 1998). On this occasion, here is a song from “Bandhan” (1940).

This song is sung by Arun Kumar Mukherji. The picturisation shows Ashok Kumar leaving in a bullockcart and this song plays in the background while Leena Chitnis, a chanazor garam seller (who lip syns the famous song Chane jor garam babu earlier in the movie) and a few kids look on and miss him.

Kavi Pradeep is the lyricist. Music is composed by Saraswati Devi.

Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Nitin Shah.


Song-Ruk na sako to jaao tum jaao (Bandhan)(1940) Singer-Arun Kumar Mukherji, Lyrics-Pradeep, MD-Saraswati Devi

Lyrics(Provided by Nitin Shah)

ruk na sako to jaao
tum jaao
ruk na sako to jaao
tum jaao
ek magar ham sabki hai fariyaad
kabhi hamaari bhi kar lena yaad
ek magar ham sabki hai fariyaad
kabhi hamaari bhi kar lena yaad
ham to tumhe na bhool sakenge
ham to tumhe na bhool sakenge
tum chaahe bisraao
tum jaao

pyaara ratan bichhudta ho jab panthhi
kiska hriday na bhar aataa tabb panthhi
kintu hamaare aansoo se tum
kamzori na dikhaao
tum jaao
ruk na sako to jaao,
tum jaao

jaane kab phir milen puraane saathhi ee
jaane kab phir mile prem ki paati
aaj bichhudne ke pehle tum
aaj bichhudne ke pehle tum
ek baar muskaao
tum ek baar muskaao
tum jaao
ruk na sako to jaao
tum jaao

This song was very popular during forties. My elder sister and brother (and I joined them little later) used to sing this song at the time of ‘bidaayee’ of brides in my hometown. There were no mikes in those days so I was trained to sing with my shrill child voice in one octave higher with them. When I visited my hometown after a long break recently, I was surprised to find some very seniors remembering it and even requested me to sing few lines of that song. With wet eyes i obliged them.

My father’s fav song picturised on his fav hero. Remember his face would glow whenever he heard a song from a movie of AK, Saigal sahab, Pankaj Mullick, Chandramohan, Devika Rani, Shanta Apte, Khursheed… While listening to a song on the radio, he would narrate the scene of that song and tell us story of the movie in brief.
Thanks Atulji and Nitinbhai for the song.
