Hullo Atuldom
Happy Holi!
Some movies have a lot of memories attached to them. Yash Chopra’s “Chaandni” is one such movie. The year was 1989 and I had been to Mumbai (maayka) for my delivery. So, I had a lot of free time when I could interact with all my friends and neighbours like never before (and never have I had a similar opportunity too) 😉 that made that visit to Mumbai special. For those Atulites who know me- I had shifted out of Mumbai post marriage and so the term “visit to Mumbai”.
Getting back to “Chaandni” – those were the days when there were VCRs in many home and people used to rent Video Cassettes of movies which they couldn’t see in the theatres. I have seen a few movies in that way in the company of my neighbour’s family and more importantly their son. Their son was a year or two older to me so he was a mentor, guide, friend, idol and so many other things for me. To start off (as was the norm in those times) he was my Rakhi bro but we had a different equation between the two of us. He being my idol – I started liking Rekha- his favourite and he, on his part, made an effort to like Amitabh because he doted on me. Whatever love I have for physics, all branches of mathematics, and history is because I followed his way of studying them.
Oh, I again went away from Chaandni- so “Parinda” and “Chaandni” were the two movies the two of us saw back-to-back. “Chaandni” was a typical triangular love story. To start of it is a simple love story where the girl- Chaandni (Sridevi)- is wooed not-so-easily by the guy- Rohit (Rishi Kapoor). But the guys’ family has an issue with the alliance but accept it because their ‘only’ son is adamant. They go ahead have an engagement etc. But unfortunately, Rohit meets with an accident and is bound to a wheel chair. His family decides that this is the best time to humiliate the girl and so Rohit is forced to break-off the engagement so that the girl doesn’t have to face his family’s behaviour.
Now what does the girl do? She leaves Delhi, comes to Mumbai and lands a job in Lalit’s (Vinod Khanna) office. He is already pining for his dead wife when he falls in love with her, she takes some time to reciprocate though she is always civil to him and his mother. The next twist in the story comes when Lalit meets Rohit in Switzerland, where he has gone for business and Rohit has come for treatment. They become friends and decide that on returning to India they will introduce their respective girl friends and also marry on the same day etc. Isn’t that enough to twist the story further and make it a triangle?

This will be the 7th song from “Chaandni” which had Shiv-Hari as music directors and Anand Bakshi as lyricist. I cannot keep myself from saying: Sridevi looks so pretty and baby-like in this song, actually she looks like a baby through the movie. This song is shot on the streets of Delhi or New Delhi. I would like it if the Dilliwale followers of the blog help in identifying the locations. It will be nice to know. 🙂
This song is also in memory of the aforementioned friend who loved to ape Rishi Kapoor and his sunglasses and sweaters. This friend was also a Dilliwala for a brief period of his life.

Lyrics
mehbooba
mehbooba
sheharon mein se shehar suna
bhai shehar suna thha dilli
dilli shehar mein chaandni naam ki ladki mujhse milli
uski jheel si aankhon mein haaye
dil mera dooba
bani woh meri
yahi woh meri
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
mehbooba
arre sheharon mein se shehar suna
bhai shehar suna thha dilli
dilli shehar mein chaandni naam ki ladki mujhse milli
uski jheel si aankhon mein haaye dil mera dooba
bani woh meri
yahi woh meri
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
mehbooba
maine tujhko dekha toh
pehli nazar mein jaan liya
hai mera mehboob tu hi
maine tujhe pehchaan liya
maine tujhko dekha toh
pehli nazar mein jaan liya
hai mera mehboob tu hi
maine tujhe pehchaan liya
khwabon aur khayaalon ki
galiyon mein jisko dhoondha
bana tu mera
haan bani tu meri
bani main teri mehbooba
bani main teri mehbooba
bani main teri mehbooba
mehbooba
mujhko yeh parvaah nahin
ab kya sabki marzi hai
sabki marzi ko chhodo
ye to rab ki marzi hai
mujhko ye parvaah nahin
ab kya sabki marzi hai
sabki marzi ko chhodo
ye to rab ki marzi hai
hum donon ke beech mein
ab na aaye koi dooja
bani tu meri
bani main teri
tu hi toh meri mehbooba
main hoon woh teri mehbooba
tu hi toh meri mehbooba
arre shehron mein se shehar suna
bhai shehar suna thha dilli
dilli shehar mein chaandni naam ki ladki mujhse milli
uski jheel si aankhon mein haaye
dil mera dooba
bani woh meri
yahi woh meri
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
main hoon wo teri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
main hoon wo teri mehbooba
tu hai woh meri mehbooba
main hoon wo teri mehbooba
