OONCHI HAVELI (1955) was produced under the banner of Sharad Productions and it was directed by Dhirubhai Desai. The star cast included Karan Diwan, Nirupa Roy, Lalita Pawar, B M Vyas, Yashodara Katju, Bhagwan, Janakidas, Indira Bansal, Heera Sawant, Niranjan Sharma etc. The film appears to be an obscure one as no other details are available. From the title of the film as well as a few still photographs of the scenes from the film, the story looks to be about the conflict between a royal family and a commoner.
The film had 9 songs in it. One of these songs has been covered in the Blog as far back as in November 2011. All the songs were written by Bharat Vyas which were set to music by Pt. Shivram (I guess, the music director is the same person as Pt.Shivram Krishna).
Pandit Shivram Krishana (1927-1980) was one of those music directors from Rajasthan who was talented but had no luck to prosper as a music director in Bollywood. Despite being music director for 24 Hindi films between 1953 and 1980, composing some melodious songs, he could not rise to the category of even the second rung of music directors in Hindi movies.
Pt Shivram Krishna started his career as an assistant to Khemchand Prakash during the second half of 1940s. Before becoming a full-fledged music director in Hindi film industry, he worked as a music director with HMV. In 1951, he returned to Bombay and got his first break as a music director in V Shantaram’s ‘Teen Batti Chaar Rasta’ (1953) and ‘Surang’ (1953). In the latter period of his musical career, Pt Shivram Krishna was mostly associated with mythological films.
I am presenting one of Pt. Shivram Krishna’s songs ‘ roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne’ from the film OONCHI HAVELI (1955). This song is sung by Pt. Shivram Krishna, Asha Bhonsle and chorus. The song is written by Bharat Vyas. This song was not new to me as I had heard this song in my teens on Vividh Bharati.
The song is a rare one in the sense that despite my best efforts, I could not locate the song on YT. So I have made a video from mp3 clip of the song I had and have uploaded the same on YT.

roop kaisa
roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne
ho o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne
roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne
ho o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne
kaari kaari ye pyaari do ankhiyaan
o jaise neele kamal ki pankhiyaan
ho o jaise neele kamal ki pankhiyaan
naache tan man magan
baaje jhan jhan (??)
kaisi Raadha
kaisi Raadha banaayi Ghanshyaam ne
roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne
ho o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne

rangeele chhabeelon ke dar se
huwa mushqil nikalna ghar se

main jaaun jidhar
nain laage udhar
mujhe paagal
mujhe paagal banaaya kare Raam ne
roop kaisa diya hai mujhe Raam ne
ho o o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne
mere man ki o meethi mithhaayi
o teri sooratiya iss mein bithhaayi
ho o bholi sooratiya iss mein bithaayi
ek teri chamak
haluwe mein namak
jaao jaao
jaao jaao na aao ji saamne
roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne
ho o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne

nahin aisa nazar koi aaye
jo nakhre dulhan ke uthhaaye
haay jo nakhre dulhan ke uthhaaye
pehlu pe phisal
jab girtaa hai dil
nahin aata
nahin aata hai koi saamne
roop kaisa diya hai tujhe Raam ne
ho o
chaand sharmaaye gori tere saamne
