Blog 10-Year Challenge (2009-19) – Song No. 23
————————————————
On 28th March of 2009, six songs had made their appearance on the blog. The songs and the films represented are listed below.
| Man Darpan Hai | Dushman | 1939 |
| Mitti Se Khelte Ho | Patita | 1953 |
| Sach Kahta Hoon Bahut Haseen Ho | Jaali Note | 1960 |
| Chanda Re Mori Patiyaan Le Jaa | Banjaarin | 1960 |
| Baalamwa Bolo Na Bolo Na | Picnic | 1966 |
| Yoon Na Sharmaa Phailaade Apni Gori Gori Baanhen | Parwaana | 1971 |
Of these six films, ‘Dushman’ (1939), ‘Patita’ (1953), ‘Jaali Note’ (1960), ‘Picnic’ (1966) and ‘Parwaana’ (1971) have been yippeee’d by now. The 1960 film ‘Banjaarin’ remains. This film has eight songs in all. Three songs have been showcased here. Today, we bring on the fourth song, on the 10th anniversary of this film’s debut here.
‘Banjaarin’ is produced by Ratan, under the banner of Ratan Pictures, Bombay. The film is a costume drama, directed by Jaswant Jhaveri. The list of actors reads like Kanchan Kamini, Manhar Desai, Lalita Kumari, Sundar, Indira Bansal, Dalpat, Pal Sharma, Neelu, Shri Bhagwan, Bela, TN Sinha, Saroj, Murari, Paro, Prayag, Rehana, Paulson, Geeta, Chetan Kumar, Malika, Sheela R, CH Singh, Shekhar Purohit, Shriram, and S Chaddha.
The eight songs of this film are all penned by Pt Madhur. The music is by Pardesi – a lesser known artist whose name appears as music director for maybe 4 or 5 films only. The singing voice in this song is Geeta Dutt.
The video clip of this song is available. The clip is somewhat dim, and hence much details or even identification of artists on screen is not very feasible. The song is overlapped with a lot of other action in the film. The song itself seems to be a club dance song, or maybe a villain’s den song. There are a number of artists, but I am able to recognize only Sunder. I am not able to identify the main dancer in this song. Is that Sheela Ramani? I am not sure. I would request our more knowledgeable readers to please help with identification of artists.
The song is constructed well. I am hearing it for the first time today. It sure has an interesting rhythm and beat to it, and it has been rendered by Geeta Dutt with the customary zest. Listen and enjoy.
[PS: I have not been able to decipher two words in the first stanza. I request other folks to please help insert the correct words.]
Song – Qismat Ke Khel Tu Khel Khilaadi (Banjaarin) (1960) Singer – Geeta Dutt, Lyrics – Pandit Madhur, MD – Pardesi
Lyrics
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
duniya kahe na anaadi
oo oo oo
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
zindagi ki karwaten kaanton pe liye ja
aaya hai duniya mein to kuchh naam kiye ja
zindagi ki karwaten kaanton pe liye ja
aaya hai duniya mein to kuchh naam kiye ja
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
duniya kahe na anaadi
oo oo oo
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
jeet kabhi haar baney
haar kabhi jeet
daanv laga zindagi ka khel ki ye reet
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
duniya kahe na anaadi
oo oo oo
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
tu kisi se kam nahin majboor nahin hai
aur din bhi kaamyaabi ke ab door nahin hain
tu kisi se kam nahin majboor nahin hai
aur din bhi kaamyaabi ke ab door nahin hain
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
duniya kahe na anaadi
oo oo oo
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
daanv badha josh mein
rehna magar hosh mein
duniya kahe na anaadi
oo oo oo
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi
qismat ke khel tu khel khilaadi

किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दुनिया कहे ना अनाड़ी
ओ ओ ओ
किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
जिंदगी की करवटें काँटों पे लिए जा
आया है दुनिया में तो कुछ नाम किए जा
जिंदगी की करवटें काँटों पे लिए जा
आया है दुनिया में तो कुछ नाम किए जा
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दुनिया कहे ना अनाड़ी
ओ ओ ओ
किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
जीत कभी हार बने
हार कभी जीत
दांव लगा ज़िंदगी का खेल की ये रीत
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दुनिया कहे ना अनाड़ी
ओ ओ ओ
किस्मत के खेल तू खेल खिलाड़ी
तू किसी से कम नहीं मजबूर नहीं है
और दिन भी कामयाबी के अब दूर नहीं हैं
तू किसी से कम नहीं मजबूर नहीं है
और दिन भी कामयाबी के अब दूर नहीं हैं
दांव बढ़ा जोश में
रहना मगर होश में
दांव बढ़ा जोश में

No It is not Sheela Ramani for sure,
Sheela R aka Sheila Ramachandra is the name of junior dancer cum dance director/associate(Sheela Ramchandra is active till Rakesh Roshan`s Karan Arjun, it is my guess)

as per title of the movie
the spelling of music director is PARDESHI(a New discovery by Ratan Kumar i.e.,producer of the movie)
below Pardeshi`s name
it was written as “Arranger:S.Banerji
AND
also it was written as
Ratan Kumar again proudly introducing a new heroine KANCHAN KAMINI
(Dalpat in triple role)
(sheela ramachandra`s name appears at the end of the actors` list

I think it is ‘zindagi ki karwatein kaanton pe liye jaa’
Thanks for this post and introducing this song (for me). For me the movie name ‘Banjaarin’ reminds ‘chandaa re mori patiyaan le ja’, or I can say because of this song I remember the name of this movie.
I have not watched (naturally though) this movie.
Geeta Dutt ji ke gaane to hamesha se favorite rahe hain, lekin ye gaana shayad pehli baar suna aaj 🙂
!! Aabhaar …!!!
