“Kinaare Kinaare” (1963) was a labour of love for Nyay Sharma, a poet and lyricist. This venture turned out to be a nightmare for him and it ruined him.
Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh, our in house encycopaedia has provided us the information about the making of this movie as well as other details. Here is what he has to say about this movie:
KINARE KINARE-1963 took almost 6 years in its making.The story of its delay is as interesting as the film’s story itself.
Nyay Sharma was sailing very smooth when he launched this film with all the dates of lead pairs,a good free location for shooting,enough money and everything else needed to finish the film in 3 months.Unfortunately,his main cameraman-Nagnath-died mysteriously while shooting the film.There were police enquiries and the shooting stopped for several months,finishing all the secured dates of Dev Anand and Meena ji.during this period,even his money exausted and he was about to shelve the film,when Dev Anand sent M/s Dhun Investments P.Ltd,to provide finance and once again the film shooting started.Finally after 6 years film was released,but with disastrous returns.KINARE KINARE is a tale of the misfortunes of an young man Kanwal(Dev Anand),who after graduation,returns to his village.One day he comes accross a vagabond trying to rape a village girl.he intervenes,there is a fight and the goon is killed by him in self defence.There is an eyewitness,but he runs away with fear.To save himself,kanwal leaves the village and goes to another village where fe faints with high fever.Nilu(Meena Kumari),daughter of a retired person nurses him to health.They fall in love.The village dada manohar singh also loves Nilu and hence is after Kanwal and threatens him about the old murder.Kanwal again runs away to Bombay.
Here also he saves a Seth from crooks and gets a job of his secretary.Usha,bosses girl friend starts loving kanwal.When Nilu comes to Bombay for her Heart treatment,she meets kanwal and the reunite,but manohar singh,who has followed Nilu reports kanwal to Police and he is arrested.
The rest of the story is how Nilu and Kanwal’s friend Mithu,save Kanwal by locating the missing eyewitness and release Kanwal finally to marry Nilu.
Seven songs from “Kinaare Kinaare” (1963) have been discussed in the past. Here is the eighth song from the movie. It is sung by Lata. Nyay Sharma is the lyricist. Music is composed by Jaidev.
Only the audio of this song is available, but one can guess that the song must have been picturised on Meena Kumari. I requet our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.
Song-Sulag uthhi dil ki lagi (Kinaare Kinaare)(1963) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Nyay Sharma, MD-Jaidev
Lyrics
sulag uthhi dil ki lagi
jalte hain parwaane
roti hai taqdeeren
hanste hain afsaane
sulag uthhi dil ki lagi
jalte hain parwaane
ik aandhi aisi bhi
is dil par chhaayi hai
ik aandhi aisi bhi
is dil par chhaayi hai
apnon kaa zikr hi kyaa
jarche(?) hain begaane
sulag uthhi dil ki lagi
jalte hain parwaane
shaam bhi hai
jazbe bhi
dil bhi hai
masti bhi
shaam bhi hai
jazbe bhi
dil bhi hai
masti bhi
aa bhi jaa
teri raah takte hain veeraane
sulag uthhi dil ki lagi
jalte hain parwaane
roti hain taqdeeren
hanste hain afsaane
sulag uthhi dil ki lagi
jalte hain parwaane

Bharatbhai,
Add to the list the 3 Mangeshkar sisters; its a veritable feast to the senses.
Coming the point of confirming it is a tough ask as I will have to comb through the maze of songs. However one can safely say that till someone challenges it; its an unachievable and unbeatable feat.
Bluff Master had 6 singers for Shammi Kapoor.
Unfortunately the song depicts rather aptly the sorry state of the lyricist-producer> taqdeer unko nyay dene me sharma gayi

‘Kinare Kinare’ may be the only movie where all four great male singers had one song each, viz. Manna Dey, Talat Mahmood, Mohd Rafi and Mukesh and additionally Vinod Desai !!!!. Nitinbhai generally has such statistics and I request him to confirm this feat by my favorite music composer jaidev-ji.
