Mukesh and his NFS – 11

In the annals of HFM, the association of Mukesh with composers Kalyanji-Anand ji will remain inscribed in golden letters for decades to come.

Class, genres, melody, numbers; you name it, you have it.

And, before the readers jump to conclusions, this post is not listing the songs of the combo. That will have to wait for another day since much work is involved in preparation of the long table as the numbers are in 3 digits. It will also involve multiple verifications so that no songs are missed.

In this regard, and in spite of posting 90+ Mukesh songs, it is an incomplete work if the following are not covered.

• Mukesh’s association with Shankar Jaikishen, Kalayanji Anandji and Laxmikant Pyarelal.
• Mukesh’s songs with Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosale.
• Mukesh’s songs for Raj Kapoor.

I am cognizant of this huge lacuna in my work and will endeavor to complete the tasks.

Today, I take up a rather easier task. That of Mukesh’s NFS with Kalyanji Anandji.

Mukesh sang in about 56 Hindi films scored by Kalyanji Anandji and in about 5 films which did not see the light of the day; meaning they remained unreleased.

As far as NFS are concerned, apparently, there are none as such. But, MGK-II lists three songs under NFS category. Guess what? All three NFS have some “film in the making”, “shelved” and “unreleased” sort of tags associated with them.

Here is the short table of the 3 “NFS”.

S. No Name of the song Lyricist
1 Na kajre ki dhaar, na motiyon ke haar Indeewar
2 Main chakori tum gagan ke chandrama Unknown
3 Hey re dayamay apni daya se Unknown

Needless to say, 1 and 3 are already represented on the blog. I would request readers to open the links of the two posted NFS as they are very interesting songs.

1 as I have detailed in the post is probably from an incomplete film “Navagraha”.

3 was from a released film, but the said song itself was not included in the film.

Today’s duet with an unknown female co-singer and an unknown lyricist is also probably from an incomplete film “Poornima”. Please note that the combo also has songs in another released film of the same title Purnima (1965). In this film, Mukesh has 3 glorious songs.

Two solos and an evergreen duet with Lata Mangeshkar. I am tempted to start writing on the songs of the combo now itself, but then that post will have to wait.

For today, we have this last NFS (a duet) of Mukesh under Kalyanji Anandji’s composition with a female singer whose identity is not known.

Editor’s note: The female voice sounds like Suman Kalyanpur.

Lyrics

Ho o o
ho o o
aa aa aa aa aa aa

Main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornima
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
?? ke aaj baahon mein sama chandrma

main adhooraa hoon tumhaare bin poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
jaanee pehchaanee lage tu priytama priytama
main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
ho o maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
beet na jaaye suhaana ye samaa ye samaa

main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
