“Ye Vaada Raha”(1982) was a very popular movie with the teenagers of those days, but apparently the grown up section of the population did not like the movie much and so the movie received a lukewarm response at the box office. Personally I was barely aware of this movie and I did not watch it seeing that I only watched Amitabh Bachchan movies those days.
“Ye Vaada Raha”(1982) was produced by Ramesh Bahl and directed by Kapil Kapoor for Rose movies, Bombay. This “social” movie had Rishi Kapoor, Tina Munim, Poonam Dhillon, Sarika, Rakhi, Rakesh Bedi, Ifthikar, Agha, Sunder, Gulshan Bawra, Hari Shivdasani, Chandu Prakash, Madan Joshi, Shrimati Mistri, Prasad, Pappu, Geeta, Aditya, Shanta, Salma, Asha, Avinash Thakur etc in it. Shammi Kapoor had played a special role in this movie.
“Ye Vaada Raha”(1982) had six songs in it. Five of these songs have been covered in the blog.
Here are the details of the five songs covered in the blog:-

One can observe that three school going movie watchers of those days have covered four out of five songs that have been discussed so far.Their articles show how much they loved the movie and especially its songs.
The story of the movie is given by Nahm in her article while covering a song from the movie as :-
Rishi Kapoor goes to either Simla or Kashmir on business, where he meets Poonam Dhillion, a local and an orphan. They fall in love and decide to marry. Rishi Kapoor’s mother is Raakhi, who is class conscious and feels Poonam is not suitable to marry Rishi Kapoor status wise. She insults Poonam and refused to give them permission to marry.
Rishi Kapoor and Poonam Dhillion have a car accident, while Rishi Kapoor is driving. Poonam Dhillion’s face is badly injured. Rishi Kapoor is seriously injured and is unconscious for many days. When he is conscious first thing he asks is to know how is Poonam, whose name is Sunita in the film. Raakhi tells him that Sunita had died in the accident. Raakhi also convinces Sunita to go away as with her beauty destroyed, Rishi Kapoor will only pity her. Sunita too doesn’t want Rishi Kapoor’s pity, is afraid of becoming a incumberance in his life, agrees to go away and never tell him that she is alive.
Enter Shammi Kapoor, who is a Doctor of repute. He tells Sunita, who has given up on life, that she can still regain her beauty. He arranges for Sunita to have a plastic surgery and gives her a new face and Sunita is know Tina Munim. Shammi Kapoor treats Sunita as his own daughter and brings her to Mumbai. Sunita’s face has changed but her voice is still the same.
Meanwhile, Rishi Kapoor thinking her dead is building a Anath Ashram in Sunita’s memory and collecting funds for the same. When he meets the new Sunita i.e Tina Munim at Shammi Kapoor’s house he is intrigued with her voice which is so similar to his Sunita’s. Sunita is bitter that Rishi Kapoor has forgotten her and failed to recognize her. Rishi Kapoor asks her to perform with him in the stage show, which he is holding to raise funds for the Ashram in the memory of his Sunita. Sunita refuses as she cant bear to be with Rishi Kapoor and not tell him that she is the same Sunita. She has promised Raakhi that she will never tell Rishi about the facts of that accident.
By this time, Raakhi has also convinced Rishi Kapoor to get engaged to Sarika. But he wont marry till he has completed the memorial project. Knowing all this and being warned by Raakhi to leave her son alone, Sunita comes and performs at the stage show. She tells the story in the song, which she cannot disclose in words to Rishi Kapoor. Finally he sees the glimpses of Poonam Dhillion, his Sunita in Tina Munim, and confronts his mother.
Knowing the truth, he goes to find his Sunita, who has gone back to that place where they met. Finally the lovers unite and there is happy ending.
I was vaguely aware of this storyline (thanks to a review) that in this movie the heroine undergoes a plastic surgery and turns into Tina Munim from Poonam Dhillon. 🙂
Here is the sixth and final song from “Ye Vaada Raha”(1982) to appear in the blog. This song is a stage performance song where Rishi Kapoor sings a song on stage where he sings about what ishq means to him. The heroine, who has transformed from Poonam Dhillon to Tina Munim is present in the auditorium, seated with Shammi Kapoor (the plastic surgeon extraordinaire who has done this miraculous surgery on her). As is the wont of lead actors in Hindi movie, she cannot hold her back and starts singing in response to Rishi Kapoor in full synchronisation without missing a beat. How she reaches the stage from her front seat without being stopped is not shown in the picturisation. 🙂
This song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. Gulshan Baawra is the lyricist. Music is composed by R D Burman.
With this song, all the songs of the movie get covered in the movie. The movie “Ye Vaada Raha”(1982) thus gets YIPPEED in the blog.

Lyrics
ishq mera bandagee hai

aashiqon ka arsh dera
aashiqon ka farsh dera
aashiqon ke saaton jahaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
ishq meree zindagee hai
aashiqon ka arsh dera
aashiqon ka farsh dera
aashiqon ke saaton jahaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
yoon to jahaan mein sabhee naam ke hain ye rishte
jo ishq mein doob jaayen wahee hain farishte
yoon to jahaan mein sabhee naam ke hain ye rishte
jo ishq mein doob jaayen wahee hain farishte
ishq mein hai wo khumaaree
jo na utre umr saaree
din-b-din ye hogee jawaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
ishq meree zindagee hai
dil jismein shamma jale ishq kee
dil wahee hai
maine to apne hee dil kee kahaanee kahee hai
dil jismein shamma jale ishq kee
dil wahee hai
maine to apne hee dil kee kahaanee kahee hai
dharm apna aashiqui hai
karm apna aashiqui hai
ishq hee hai mera imaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
ishq meree zindagee hai
laa laa
la la la la
laa laa
la la la la
laa la la
la la la la
la la la la
aashiq wahee hai jo dooje ka gham jaane sehna
tu is jahaan mein kabhee na kisee se ye kehna
ho o o o ho o
aashiq wahee hai jo dooje ka gham jaane sehna
tu is jahaan mein kabhee na kisee se ye kehna
ishq hai kya
tu na jaane
na suna tu ye fasaane
kyun kare ye jhoothhaa gumaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
ishq meree zindagee hai
aashiqon ka arsh dera
aashiqon ka farsh dera
ho aashiqon ke saaton jahaan
ishq mera bandagee hai
ishq meree zindagee hai

Thanks Atul jee for this post and Congratulations on covering all songs of this movie Ye Vaadaa Rahaa-1982.
When you recently take up Yippeeeeing movies, I know that this would surely come anytime. It was in my list too. But it is always great to read your posts with the songs from early seventies to early eighties:) or mid eighties.
Thanks again for covering yet another composition from Pancham.
