(A tribute to Singer Mukesh on his Remembrance Day 27th Aug’2023)
——————————————-———————————
Readers of this blog are aware that this year is the ‘birth centenary year’ of the legendary singer Mukesh (22.07.1923 – 27.08.1976). Earlier we had a few posts on the blog for the birth centenary celebrations. When our respected Sudhir ji and Mahesh ji started presenting posts with Mukesh songs I was under the impression that there will be post on every day starting from 22nd July to 27th August (which is Mukesh’s Remembrance Day) since many Mukesh songs are yet to be posted here. That did not happen. But there were some Mukesh related posts till his birth anniversary …
In the case of remaining Mukesh songs to be posted, I am under confusion whether that song is going to be taken by Mahesh ji or not? 🙂 Sometimes (or most of the times) I seek confirmation from him.
In one recent post of Mahesh ji, I had commented and mentioned that I woul;d also be sharing a write-up with a Mukesh song from a film of seventies.
Here is that article which I would like to share. The songs of Mukesh are very much the part of my life. I used to listen to his songs frequently during my cassette listening days. These songs have been there in the moments of struggle, happiness, joy, despair, disappointment, inspirational and motivating depending on the ‘phase of emotions’ I was going through in my life.
I was born in the year 1968. The two oldest songs of Mukesh that I became aware of are ‘chal akelaa, chal akelaa, chal akelaa aa’ and ‘duniyaa se jaanewaale jaane chale jaate hain kahaan’. Even today When I listen to these songs, they transport me back to the era when I was a child and these songs would be playing on radio.
Other Mukesh songs too got embedded on my impressionable mind either through listening on the radio and/or by watching the movies containing those songs with the elders in the family. One such song was ‘wo pari kahaan se laaun …ye gangaaram ki samajh’. My uncles used this song to tease me during family get together. ( I used to get irritated when they called me as ‘Gangaaram 🙂 ). The other songs were from movies like ‘Hariyaali Aur Raastaa-1962’ which was a family favorite. I remember to have watched it multiple times with my uncles, grandmother, aunts, parents etc.
I remember that one of my Uncles had bought a record player. He had one LP record of the movie ‘Be-imaan’. it’s’ title song – ‘jai bolo beimaan ki’ is among the memorable songs of those days for me.
As I grew up, I became aware of two patriotic songs sung by Mukesh. These songs were my favorites during school days. These were also frequently played on loud speakers and radio during celebrations of Independence Day and Republic Day of our country.
These are the songs ‘chhodo kal ki baatein kal ki baat puraani’ and ‘honthhon pe sachchaayi rehti hai’. I learnt these songs by heart and I used to sing them (in my own voice 🙂 ).
My school going years beginning from standard 7th up to passing out of matriculation exams in 1983 was the phase of movie watching for me. During those years, I got to watch many of the old ‘black & white’ movies (in our colony club e.g. ‘Nazraana-1961’, ‘Kanhaiyya-1959’, ‘Aashiq-1962’ etc. and movies like ‘Deewaana-1967’ etc ). They often had songs sung by Mukesh. Moreover current movies of that time too had songs sung by Mukesh that left permanent impression on my impressionable mind. In addition to watching movies, I was heavily into listening to songs played on radio programmes such as ‘Vividh Bharati’ & ‘Urdu Service of AIR’.
I am listing a few such songs heard during those days that I used to like a lot.
Aaya hai mujhe phir yaad wo zaalim (also the other song ‘bahaaron ne mera chaman loot kar’ from the same movie), Main pal do pal ka shaayar hoon (this was obviously much before the I got into the ‘Sahir –era’), ‘Ik din bik jaayegaa maati ke mol’, ‘Tu shaitaanon ka sardaar hai’, ‘Chandan sa badan’, ‘Aansoo bhari hain ye jeewan ki raahen (this is also the one which I learned by heart and …)’, ‘Phool tumhe bheja hai khat mein’, ‘Chanda re mori patiyaan le jaa’, ‘Aa laut ke aaja mere meet’, ‘Dil lootne waale jaadugar’, ‘Saarangaa teri yaad mein’, Dil Hi To Hai’ (all songs sung by Mukesh), ‘Bade armaanon se rakhaa hai balam teri kasam’, ‘main aashiq hoon bahaaron kaa’…
Then there were songs like ‘do jaasoos karen mehsoos’, ‘ye duniya ek numberi to main dus numberi’, ‘pari re tu kahaan ki pari’, ‘tere hamsafar geet hain tere’, ‘kuchh aise bandhan hote hain’, ‘saat ajoobe is duniya mein’, ‘ham donon milke kaagaz pe dil ke’, ‘Tan man dhan sab hain tera’, ‘Sansaar hai ik nadiyaa’ etc etc …
I am only mentioning here those songs that were special to me or songs which I like most at that stage of my life. There were obviously many songs of Mukesh which were frequently heard and those which were very popular and they became part of my collection – ‘cassette collection’ – later.
The two years from 1983 to 1985 was another phase of movie watching for me and also this was the period that was a ‘peak period’ as a Rajesh Khanna fan for me when I watched most of the new and old movies of Rajesh Khanna in theatres, TV, Video Parlors etc. So, when I get to watch the movie ‘Raaz-1967’, ‘Maryaadaa-1971’ etc then I liked these songs much more ‘dil sambhaale sambhaltaa nahin aaj to’, ‘zubaan pe dard bhari daastaan chali aayi’ , Anand-1970 (all songs by Mukesh), ‘jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalmaa’, ‘haan to main kya keh rahaa thhaa’, ‘phool aahistaa phenko’ …
This routine got further extended from 1985 to 1988 during my stay at Parli Vaijnath. By then cassette players have become a ‘norm’ and I too bought a ‘mono cassette player’ on installment in 1986. I had started working since April’1985. During this period while I was getting compilation of songs prepared by me and getting them recorded for my ‘Boss’ and for my personal collection too. So I got recorded a ‘Mukesh sings for Raj Kapoor’ in TDK90. Then I also got film combinations recorded like ‘Shree 420-Aawaaraa’, ‘Jis Desh Mein Gangaa Behti Hain-Mera Naam Joker’, ‘Kabhi Kabhi- Silsilaa’ etc.
Pre-recorded albums like ‘Andaaz-Baabul’ were getting added to my collections ‘swiftly’ 🙂
The pre-recorded compilations from HMV which my Boss was buying frequently and I too bought many during my tour to our Head Office – Delhi also introduced me to many Mukesh songs which I liked most. These included songs like … ‘koi bulaaye aur koi aaye (Moods & Memories – Mukesh), ‘hari bhari vasundhara hai neelaa neelaa ye gagan’, ‘khushi ki wo raat aa gayi koi geet bajne do’, ‘cheen o arab hamaara’ (much before the Sahir phase for me was yet to come:) ), ‘sajanwaa bairi ho gaye hamaar (for that matter all songs sung by Mukesh of ‘Teesri Kasam’), ‘Sada khush rahe tu jafaa karne waale’ (Jubilee Hits of Rajendra Kumar) etc etc.
During this period one of my colleagues was a pure Mukesh fan and he used to listen to songs sung by Mukesh only. I was wondering how one can like only Mukesh songs so much? But that also motivated me to explore Mukesh songs further.
In HMV’s compilations for ‘duet songs’ of the various decades there were many duet songs sung by Mukesh. I may have mentioned some above and would like to add these ones further … ‘chori chori jo tumse mili to log kya kahenge’, ‘tumse kuchh kehna hai gar tum kuchh kehne do’, ‘tum roothhi raho main manaataa rahoon’, ‘dekho mausam kya bahaar hai’, ‘maine dekhi jag ki reet meet sab’, ‘bikhraa ke zulfein chaman mein na jaanaa’, ‘humsafar mere humsafar’..
When HMV had started the ‘music mail’ scheme I had also taken its’ membership and I remember I had then ordered among other cassettes one of Raj Kapoor or Mukesh Hits because it had this song ‘tum aaj mere sang hans lo tum aaj mere sang gaa lo’ though the album contained some songs which I already had.
Then I got posted at Kota (Rajasthan) and during my stay there another phase of getting recorded albums/compilations happened where I remember I got ‘Pehchaan-Beimaan’, ‘Anaari-Chhaliya’ like combinations recorded. Then I got to know about the rendition of ‘Sunderkaand’ by Mukesh, either somebody suggested me or I read about it, so I added this ‘divine’ album to my collection and used to listen it then.
From the above period I would like to mention two songs separately which I must have heard on radio and like them very much but they keep me eluding till the internet age. I was getting to listen them sometime on radio but was not aware the name of their movie and other details. And these were not featuring in any of the compilations then.
‘gardish mein hon taare naa ghabraanaa pyaare’, ‘ek hasrat thhi ke aanchal ka mujhe pyaar mile’ …
From Kota I was transferred to Phulpur near Allahabad (1996-98) where I spent two years. Phulpur is a small town and whenever we get to visit there in the market I was always looking for cassettes. One day I bought a cassette containing ‘saawan ke geet’ and I was very happy that day because the album was having this song ‘aye baadal jhoom ke chal’ which I think was not available in the popular albums. (This was a ‘T-series’ cassette).
After the ‘All Time Great’ series HMV brought the ‘The Golden Collection’ series and as usual many more albums keep adding to my collection including Mukesh songs.
Later on the CDs/DVDs took over and listening to cassettes was getting reduced and nowadays even the cassettes are lying in the drawers since many years now. Even the CD/DVDs are out of routine now…
From ‘2008’ onwards I landed into Sahir era so the songs from ‘Phir Subah Hogi’, ‘Kabhi Kabhi’, ‘Dil Hi To Hai’ etc had become a routine, and songs from movies like ‘Dilli Ka Daada’ which I was not aware became known to me where Mukesh songs were also there.
After getting associated with this blog I got to know and listen to the many lesser heard and rare songs of Mukesh which I had not heard so far.
I also got the opportunity to share Mukesh songs though there were not many of his songs remaining to be posted. Still I was very happy to share the songs like ‘kahaani kismat ki’, ‘tu miley to poochhoon tujh se’, ‘dil se dil ki dor bandhi jo’, ‘anuraagi man sab kuchh seh le’ which I am very happy to have shared on the blog. Also I was very happy to share the song from ‘Romeo In Sikkim-1975’ – ‘tum hi to ho’, and ‘Shri Krishna Arjun Yuddh-1971’ – ‘kiskee dharti kiskaa gaam’ recently on the blog. Still there are songs from movies like ‘Ek Bechaara’-‘naach haseena naach’ etc. which I like and would like to see them coming here as early as possible.
The journey continues and the songs of Mukesh will be forever with us till HFM exists on this planet …“maanjhi naiyya dhhoondhhe kinaaraa … kabhi na kabhi to milan hogaa tumse hamaaraa aa”… Singer Mukesh left this planet when I was just eight years old in 1976, but his voice had been always with me in my journey of life and it will be there always with my soul further…
For today’s presentation and as a tribute to Mukesh I have taken a song from my younger days from the decade of ‘seventies’. This is from the movie ‘Dus Numberi-1976’. It is sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Mukesh. On screen Hema Malini and Manoj Kumar lip sync the song and perform with other artistes also visible.
Lyrics for this song are by Majrooh Sultanpuri and music is composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
This song featured at number 24 in the ‘annual Binaca Geetmala List of 1976’. The other song from the same movie i.e. ‘duniya ek numberi to main dus numberi’ also featured in this list at number 10 ( 🙂 a coincidence?)
Let us enjoy the song now …
