Pancham’s Music – Eighties (1981-1990) Part-2 –post-9 (1981)

(Pancham-Rafi jodee songs)
————————————————

Today we are paying our tributes to the legendary singer of Hindi Cinema Mohd Rafi. He passed away on this day in 1980. Today is his forty-fifth Remembrance Anniversary. On this occasion here is song sung by Mohd Rafi with Asha Bhonsle as a co-singer and composed by Rahul Dev Burman. Earlier, I have presented Pancham-Rafi jodee songs from the decade of seventies. Today I am presenting a song of this jodee from the decade of eightees. It is from the movie ‘Aan Aur Shaan’(1983). Two songs from this movie have already been presented on this blog. I am presenting the third song from this movie here today.

“Aan Aur Shaan-1983” was directed by Ravi Tandon for Elephanta Films. It was produced by Mohan Barodia. It had Shammi Kapoor, Dara Singh, Rishi Kapoor, Moushumi Chatterjee, Nirupa Roy, Farida Jalal, Ravinder Kapoor, Janaki Dass, with Jeevan and Ranjeet. They were supported by Harish Magan, Master Ravi, Maan Singh, Pardesi, Prem, Uttam Sodi, Chandu, Joher Sen, and Narendra Jaiswal. Aruna Irani, Satyen Kappu, Jayshree T., O.P. Goyle, and Putul Guha were the guest artistes in this movie.

This movie was passed by the Censor Board on 14.11.1983. Story and Screenplay for this movie was written by Raju Saigal. Dialogues for this movie were written by Sagar Sarhadi. And Mohan Rathod did the editing of this movie. This movie has songs written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed to music by Rahul Dev Burman. Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar and Mohd Rafi give their voices to the songs in this movie.

The earlier two songs presented on the blog were solo songs, one song each was sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar. Today’s song is a duet song sung by Mohd Rafi and Asha Bhonsle. The song is picturised on Moushumi Chatterjee and Rishi Kapoor. They are shown in intoxicated state (may be they have drunk ‘bhaang’ or something else) and thereafter day dreaming in this song.

Asha Bhonsle has sung the words ‘morey raajaa’ differently each time it appears in the song, likewise Rafi saab as usual adds something magical each time he sings ‘moree raadhaa’ …

Jeevan and others are also present in the picturisation of this song.

This song deserves to be a part of many compilations of Rafi-Asha duets that were released earlier by music companies. But the music companies failed to notice this song.

Enjoy the song now, and enjoy the ‘Pancham-Rafi’ magic …
