The Voice of Mukesh #77
– – – – – – – – – – – – –
We are now in the 16th year of the existence of this blog. The centenary anniversary of Mukeh has just passed. Today is the five thousand five hundred and fortieth day of publication of this blog. A little while back, earlier today, we had the 16 million, 48 thousand and seven hundredth visitor, to come visit this part of the virtual universe, maybe looking for a specific song, or information or lyrics. We are now a standard benchmark in the online world.
And we bring to you today, the 18 thousandth post being added this incredible library.
Is time real? Is there this invisible milieu that stretches forever in all directions? Or this is just an awareness that progressively witnesses a changing world around us? Is there a changing, decaying entity with in us, which actually experiences this awareness and generates a perception of a flow? And we name this time.
I do not recall where was I on the 19th July of 2008. Must have been a normal day, and a normal flow of experiences. Wonder what others may recall for that day. I am sure Atul ji and Raja ji will surely recall. For they were the doers of setting in motion, this phenomenon. Nothing grandiose was on the horizon. Just that an engineer with Railways, with a penchant for music of Hindi films, wanted to start writing about that music. All in a very humble way.
The expectations may not even have materialized in Atul ji’s mind. Maybe a thousand posts, for a thousand songs, and then to move on to a new endeavor. Maybe something more about cricket. Or may be, another thousand songs, kind of the total Hindi film universe that was inside Atul ji’s mind.
Maybe what Atul ji also did not realize at that time. His humble initiation of this effort, would soon take on a life of its own. Ah yes, it did. And it slowly, imperceptibly transformed into this amazing wonderment on the internet – the ASAD phenomenon.
People recognize it now, they talk about it. The mention of ASAD in certain type of gatherings sounds normal. Everyday nearly three thousand people will visit here. That makes it an average of 120 visits per hour, and so on and so forth – the math can be extrapolated in so many diverse ways.
The phenomenon is in the making. It is generating a history of its own. The richness of information that is being compiled everyday provides many views into the ASAD universe. Maybe, maybe, in some future, this blog will be a subject of research and analysis.
The table below provides a very simple view into the progression of the thousandth milestones over the past years.

Prior to the five thousandth post, the passing of the first four thousandth milestones were kind of non-events. Not ignored, but also not celebrated as we do now. For example, the thousandth song, while acknowledging the milestone, was in fact a short write up, and just two comments – from Lalitha ji and Raja ji.
A similar handling of the two thousandth post. Acknowledge the milestone, the write up maybe a little longer than the one for the first thousandth, and three people commented.
Things started to become more interesting with the third thousandth milestone. It was a long post, written by Raja ji. Eight people commented on the post, out of which 4 were simply requests for an English translation of the lyrics. But the write up is really great.
With the fourth thousandth post, we step into the space of real serious writing, accompanied by serious discussions and comments. The write up is classic. [Raja ji – where are you, missing your presence on the blog for a long time now]. Ten people commented – and real serious discussions in comments too, with multiple back and forth conversations.
By the time we arrive at the fifth thousandth post, the pattern is now set in seriousness. The search and choice of the song, and the write up itself, discussion in comments – everything has now become a considerable enterprise.
Beyond that, the search for songs has become a major effort. The attempt is to bring on board songs with a dramatic uniqueness, and a quality of rarity associated with it. Let us come to the song for today’s eighteenth thousandth post.
The centenary celebration for Mukesh has just happened some weeks back. A back and forth conversation has been happening between Mahesh ji and myself, apropos this song – when to uncover this and when to post.
The song being presented today is in a category of rarity all of its own. In a manner of speaking this song is simply one of its kind. As far as I have been able to ascertain, there is no other song of this type. Yes, it is a Mukesh song. And the remarkable feature of this song – it also has the voice of Nitin Mukesh. As far as I could search and confirm, this is the only song that contains the voices of this father son singer duo. This makes it special, as well as rare.
The aspect of rarity is really a uniqueness of this song, and also the reason that it has remained away from limelight since its creation more than 53 years ago. It was created and recorded but it did not appear in the movie. The producer/director of the movie made a decision not to include it in the film. And the next misfortune that befell this song is that it never got published on a gramophone or a vinyl record. In essence, this song was lost to the outside world, for good.
Well almost. It most probably survived on a spool tape after it was recorded. It never got forwarded to the gramophone company to be published. It would have been part of some original planning sheets for the songs of the film. When the decision was made to exclude it, then it got excluded even from the booklet and other publicity material prepared for the film. And so, except for some very secluded existence, this song was obliterated from view of the known world.
We get the first inkling of its existence when the Surat based film historian and die hard Mukesh fan Shri Harish Raghuvanshi ji listed it in the updated and enlarged 2nd edition of the Mukesh Geet Kosh, which he pubished recently in 2020. There were murmurs heard earlier about the possibility of a song containing the voice of this father son duo, but nothing proven ever came to light.
And even so, in the 2nd edition of the Mukesh Geet Kosh, Harish ji identifies and lists this song at number 978, he still does not identify two major features of this song. First, he has included this song in the non-film songs section of the book. Secondly, the name of Nitin Mukesh is not listed as one of the singers. For that matter, the name of Sushma Shreshtha is also not listed. However, a foot note is added for good measure, which says that based on available information, this song was created by Kalyanji Anandji for the 1970 film ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani’, and that it was excluded from the film.
The actual song itself makes it first appearance online a little over five years ago. There is YouTube channel by the name ‘Pavan Tanay’. The owner of this channel uploaded this song on 28 November, 2017. All good so far. A kind hearted gentleman who brings forth one of the rarest treasures of HFM, and puts it on his channel without much fanfare.
But in doing this favor to the world, he also created an exacerbating problem for all. He provides completely erroneous information about the antecedents of this song. He links this song to the 1982 film ‘Hum Sab Ek hain’, with MD’s name given as Khayyam, and the lyricist’s name given as Jaan Nisar Akhtar.
[Author’s Note: This post was planned to be done yesterday. But then this spin on the correct credits of this song took away practically my entire day in trying to resolve this confusion. Mahesh ji has been part of that multi pronged effort of mine yesterday.]
I have this song in my collection for a while now. It was given to me by another dear friend and collector of Hindi films and songs, Ahsaan Qasim, who is based in Hapur, near Delhi. So when Mahesh ji sent me the link from the ‘Pavan Tanay’ channel some days back, and I viewed it now just as part of the preparation for this post – it felt like a googly bowled at me.
So more research started. The first discovery was that yes there is a film by a similar name in 1982, listed in the Geet Kosh volume 6. I say similar, because the correct name of the film is ‘Hum Ek Hain’, and not ‘Hum Sab Ek Hain’. That actually pointed us towards the fact that this ‘Pavan Tanay’ channel could well be full of erroneous information. Mahesh ji then confirmed this thought with his message that yes, the channel contains a lot of erroneous info.
But still, the confirmations had to be done. So I was in back and forth conversation with many friends, including Zafar Bhai (who in turn tried to get confirmation from RMIM group of which he is a member), Ahsaan Bhai, Mahesh ji, Vishkarma ji, Bakhshish ji, Javed Bhai and others.
As I checked the Geet Kosh volume 6, the entry listed for this film is completely blank except for the name of the production company and censor details. It is obvious that Hamraaz ji could not also find any additional info, other than what he may have extracted from the censor data. But ‘Pavan Tanay’ upload did point us in the direction of Khayyam. I recalled that Vishwas Nerurkar ji of Bombay has published the filmography and sonography of Khayyam in book form. I then also initiated conversation with him, to confirm. His response was quite clear. Yes the film of 1982 does have music by Khayyam, lyrics by Jaan Nisar Akhtar. But this song is definitely not from that film. He pointed me towards the entry of this film in his book, where two songs are listed. One is a solo in the voice of Mukesh and the second is duet in the voice of Mukesh and Jagjeet Kaur. This four singer song is definitely not from that film.
That settled one part of the controversy. Mahesh ji also pointed out that there is another film from 1969 with the same title ‘Hum Ek Hain’, which is listed in the Geet Kosh volume 4. But that film has music by Usha Khanna, and so it does not stand in contention with the credits for this song. Mahesh ji then also dug out two Wikipedia pages. One page is for Nitin Mukesh. It has this song listed in the list of songs that Nitin Mukesh has sung with other singers. The second Wikipedia page is for the 1970 film ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani’. This page also, thankfully lists this song.
So after much ado (really about nothing – Shakespeare would have been delighted), we agreed to decide in favor of ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani’. It was well past midnight by the time I firmed up this conclusion and decided to go ahead with the post. And as they say – man proposes, fatigue disposes, my writing energy lasted till about 2 am and then I crashed. I wrote to Atul ji that this post will have to wait for the next day, i.e. today, 17th September, 2023, the 5540th day on the blog calendar.
Ah yes, I should have noted this earlier. Although Harish ji’s Mukesh Geet Kosh is silent about the two additional singers, other than Mukesh and Asha Bhosle, the identity has been established and confirmed by listening to the song, and conferring with other knowledgeable friends who have confirmed that the song does have the voices of Nitin Mukesh and Sushma Shreshtha.
Those who have seen the 1970 film ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani’, will recall. The film is a very traditional family drama. The main family has five members, Balraj Sahni and Nirupa Roy as the upright and honest parents, and three children Ravi, Roopa and Raja (roles played respectively by Mahesh Kumar, Baby Sonia (aka Neetu Singh) and Master Ripple). This song sounds like a prayer that the family sings together at Pooja time in their home. Given the cast of actors, and without having a video to support my statements, I would say that Mukesh gives playback to Balraj Sahni, Asha Bhosle gives playback to Nirupa Roy, and Nitin Mukesh and Sushma Shreshtha are giving payback to the child characters Ravi and Roopa.
Nitin Mukesh is born on 27 June, 1950. At the time of recording of this song, he would have completed his 19th year, and would have been in his 20th year. Sushma Shreshtha is born in the year 1960, and would have been just 9 or 10 years old at the time of recording. These ages sound quite right as we listen to these two voices in the second antaraa of this song. That can be considered another piece of evidence in favor of this song being from a 1970 film and not a 1982 film.
Quite an adventure it was – a lot of time spent just because some folks are not careful about the information that they attach to their uploads. At first I was thinking of using the ‘Pavan Tanay’ link for the post, but then decided against it. I then uploaded the song from my own collection, with the correct and complete information.
So we bring this 18,000th offering to this blog. Celebrations delayed by a day, but then what is a day, and what is an era – the feeling of the self inside me is still the same as it was way back in 2010, when I first joined this bandwagon. Nothing has changed. There is music everyday. And that is all that matters. It will be 19 soon, and then 20. And the bandwagon trundles along, along behind the banjaara with a musical instrument on his back, crossing basti basti parvat parvat, without a pause, without a change of pace.
And the music plays on. . .
Let the winds blow
Let the rivers flow
Let the sun and stars
Traverse the skies as they may
Let the music play on
Let the music play on
Time is a figment of imagination
And age is just a number
Let the music play on
Let the music play on
ye hansta hua karvaan zindagi ka na poochho chala hai kidhar
tamanna hai ye saath chalte rahen hum na beete kabhi ye safar
Song – Hey Re Dayamay, Apni Daya Se (Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani) (1970) Singer – Mukesh, Asha Bhosle, Nitin Mukesh, Sushma Shreshtha, Lyrics – [Unattributed], MD – Kalyanji Anandji

Hullo Atuldom
‘Pehli Baar’ (First Time) is a program that is aired on a channel of the DTH service that I am subscribed to. It gives background about how some celebrities met or got together for the first time ever. Of course the incidents, and content in that program is possibly stuff that many of us have read over the years over-and-over again, and also in all the Filmfares, Screen (the magazines of yesteryear), Star & Style, Stardust, Cine Blitz etc. that were available in all the circulating libraries of those times. Stories like how Nargis had batter in her hand when she opened the door for Raj Kapoor, how Balraj Sahni saw Johnny Walker mimicking actors as he sold tickets in Mumbai’s BEST buses etc.
When I write a post I try to bring songs from the first movie of the celebrity who I am focusing on. The ‘Pehli Baar’ of the artistes who have made a place in our hearts and minds. The Pehli Baar that I mentioned star-kid (now a grown-up man) Abhishek Bachchan in a post, must have been this song – “Happy Days Are Here Again“.
But that was not his debut in Hindi films, his debut was in JP Dutta’s ‘Refugee’ in 2000. The movie was also the first released film for Kareena Kapoor. Jackie Shroff, Suneil Shetty, Reena Roy, Anupam Kher, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Shadaab Khan (Amjad Khan’s son), Ashish Vidyarthi and a whole set of known faces forming the supporting cast were part of the film which was about a Muslim family from Bihar that had migrated to East Pakistan post the partition of India in 1947. But after the formation of Bangladesh in 1971 this family along with several such families are forced to relocate to West Pakistan. For this they choose the Dhaka-Guwahati-Delhi-Ajmer route. From Ajmer they go to Haji Peer in Pakistan through Bhuj in Rann of Kutch. In this endeavor they are assisted by an agent who is simply addressed as Refugee (Abhishek Bachchan). He normally is very impersonal when escorting people across the border and is unaware that he is assisting terrorists too. But he begins to like the daughter (Kareena Kapoor) of this family and keeps visiting her even after the family is settled into Pakistan. The rest of the movie talks about the hardships the lovers face due to involvement of the border security forces, terrorism in the region etc. And as in all JP Dutta movies there is exchange of fire, across the border, between the Indian and Pakistani forces and a thought provoking question at the close of the film when Kareena Kapoor delivers her baby in the no-man’s land area between the two nations.
‘Refugee’ was an average grosser at the box-office and both the debutantes got positive reviews too. Following its release Abhishek was seen in ‘Tera Jadoo Chal gaya’ and ‘Dhai Akshar Prem Ke’ in the same year. ‘Dhai Akshar Prem Ke’ was the Pehli Baar that we saw Aishwarya Rai with AB Jr. (as he is popular in the social media world). There were other 10-12 movies of AB Jr’s that released between 2000 and 2004, all of which were not-so-commercially successful. But most of them had the critics appreciating Abhishek. ‘Yuva’ (2004) by Mani Ratnam is a point in case. ‘Bunty Aur Babli’ (2005) and ‘Dhoom’ (2004 ) were his biggest successes in that period. He has been trolled (a term that is in vogue in this age and times) for being his parents’ son and wife’s husband for the past few years. But he is a person who has never responded to any of the negatives that are being thrown at him and has been quietly working with a movie of his releasing every year.
Let me clear my stand here:- I am his parents’ fan not his. But I really like his work and the sincerity with which he dances and emotes. I don’t think there is any harm in appreciating good work and Abhishek does have some good movies in his filmography. I have seen him switch between atrocious comedy and absolute serious scenes with ease in Rohit Shetty’s ‘Bol Bachchan’ (2012) and ‘Zameen’ (2003). He is definitely his parents’ son (and I am not mentioning it in a negative way here). He has been around for 22 years and nobody will invest money on a flop actor if he was not going to give good returns.
So let us wish him well on his birthday today.
I have a whole set of possible songs to go with this post, but I shall stick to AB Jr’s first screen appearance. ‘Refugee’ had six songs of which the following two are on the blog – “Aisa Lagta Hai Jo Na Hua Hone Ko Hai” and “Raat Ki Hathlei Par Chaand Jagmagaata Hai“.
The first song appeared almost 10 years ago. Here is the next. It is sung by Sonu Nigam and Alka Yagnik, written by Javed Akhtar and Anu Malik is the music director. The song shows the young lovers building their future home.
Song – Taal Pe Jab Ye Zindgani Chali (Refugee) (2000) Singer – Alka Yagnik, Sonu Nigam, Lyrics – Javed Akhtar, MD – Anu Malik

Missing Films of 1960s – 58
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
1966 and 1967 appears to be very fertile years, as far as discovering obscure films and songs is concerned. I start searching for the films from these years, and I continue finding films and songs that seem to have been lost in time. A good number of them have already appeared online in one form or another. But there is still a good set that seem to be as yet unavailable online.
Today’s film – ‘Sheba And Hercules’ from 1967, is one of them. After some earlier comments from some readers on the blog and also some followers on YouTube, which corrected my statement about the song being posted for the first time, I try to be more cautious, and apply more effort to search the song before posting. So for this song today, I searched using many different options, but I am not able to trace any song of this film online. But I do not claim that the song is making a debut online, because I have been held in error of such statements before. So I will say that as far as my searches could show, I did not find this film and this song online as yet.
The name of the film itself indicates an obscure and a lost film. As dear Arun ji has also noted in one of his articles earlier, we can depend on the producers of Hindi films to create links across histories and across geographies; even to the extent of combining factual history and fictional characters. This endeavor to connect and to integrate disparate persona, events and aeons, is really ‘commendable’ – these producers and these films are working towards not just national integration, but also international integration. These producers deserve a big applause for their effort. 🙂
Case in point is this film. I am going by the title – since I have no clue as to the content and the storyline of the film. Hercules is a Roman God whose stories are part of the Roman Mythology. Incidentally, in Greek mythology also, a similar Hero/God appears, with a slightly altered name – Heracles. There are many similarities in the stories of these two, across these two cultures.
Queen Sheba is very much a historical persona, whose details are found in Biblical history, and from there connects are found in Jewish and Islamic history also. There is archaeological evidence that also supports this historical records. Sheba was the Queen of the kingdom of Saba – area in the southern Arabic peninsula that is current day Yemen. Her historical record is contemporaneous with King Solomon, who was the king of Israel in circa 970-931 BC. There is a detailed record of Queen Sheba’s visit to Israel, accompanied by a grand retinue, and of bringing many gifts of spices, dry fruits and other items, loaded on camels. The Jewish history records that the spices brought by Queen Sheba were of the type never seen and used before in Israel. There is a record of their conversations, in which Sheba asks many questions from Solomon, who is considered to be the wisest man who ever lived on this earth. After being satisfied with the answers she receives, she returns to her lands. Historians have recorded this visit as one of the earliest examples of a trade and cultural exchange delegation going from one nation to another.
But I digress. The point I am trying to arrive at is the these two mythological / historical personae – Hercules and Sheba – could never have possibly been contemporaneous in person. However, still, the producers of Hindi films have found a happy meeting ground for these two, in the film titled ‘Sheba And Hercules’. I would request other readers and friends to please add some information about the storyline of this film.
The film is a costume drama produced under the banner of Meena Films, Bombay and is directed by BS Chaudhry. The star cast includes Randhawa, Vijaya Chaudhary, Indira, Heeralal, Kamal Mehra, Tuntun, Rajan Kapoor, Trilok Singh, and Saudagar Singh amongst others. Geet Kosh tells us that there are six songs in this film. All songs have been written by Raja Mehdi Ali Khan and the music is by a gentleman named Chandan. Now this is a name that I have not encountered before. As I tried to look through the Geet Kosh, I am not able to locate any other reference to this name as a music director. Quite likely, this person, as many others who have given music in one or two films, would probably have been an assistant music director, and then got a chance to try his hand as an independent artist. But after one outing, did not get any more work in the industry.
The singing voice in this song is of Krishna Kalle. This is a song of ‘expression of love’, in which the lady is expressing her magnanimity that she is a benefactor, and that as a favor unto him, she has fallen in love with the gentleman to whom this song is being addressed. Now that is quite a thought. 🙂
So with this song, the film ‘Sheba And Hercules’ makes a debut on our blog. And so does the music director Chandan. I would request other knowledgeable readers and friends to please add more information about this film, and the music director.
Song – Jaao Ji Tum Pe Hum Merbaan Ho Gaye (Sheba And Hercules) (1967) Singer – Krishna Kalle, Lyrics – Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD – Chandan

As I am searching for a song to make the debut post for today, my mind goes to check the anniversaries page, and I find that today is the anniversary of passing away of Pt Shivram. This gives me an impetus and I start exploring the films for which Pt Shivram has composed the music. After going thru the list of his films, as given in the Geet Kosh, I find that although his work in Hindi cinema is confined to about 23 films, there still are some of his films that are not yet represented on our blog. So I search thru his pending films, and I come across this obscure film, albeit from a major banner.
The film is ‘Phool Aur Kaliyan’ from 1960, and it is produced by V Shantaram for his own banner – Rajkamal Kala Mandir. From the descriptions that I am able to locate, this is a children’s film. The unique distinction that this film carries is that it is the first children’s film to receive the National Award in the then newly created category of children’s films.
The director of the film is Ram Gabale. The songs of this film are penned by Bharat Vyas, and the music, yes, is by Pt Shivram. The list of actors as per the Geet Kosh, reads like – Radhika, Uma Dutt, Shaamlal, Daljeet, Bhagwan, Kiran, P N Bali, Somdutt, Moti Bai, R Khanna, Shakeela Bano Bhopali, Rani, Premlata, and George.
My plan was to also provide a brief bio sketch of Pt Shivram. As I scouted the net for gathering information, I came across a blog post by Aditya Pant ji, on his blog ‘Parwaaz e Khwaahish’. This blog post is dedicated to Pt Shivram. As I read through this blog, and checked out the reference materials listed, I find that I could not have done anything more or any better a job that this. I would encourage all readers to please also visit this blog (https://urgetofly.blogspot.in/2015/12/remembering-pandit-shivram-krishna.html), and read this very well researched and equally well written biosketch.
The interesting thing is about the singing voices. For this film, Pt Shivram has got three of the four songs in the film, to be sung by the daughters of V Shantaram – Madhura and Charusheela. This particular song is sung by Madhura Shantaram.
The song is a very wonderful and a very poignant one, albeit a very inspirational song. Keeping in with the spirit of the film being a children’s film, this song is a song of encouragement and motivation. It tells about the difficulties that one is bound to face in life. But with patience and faith, one will surely overcome all such difficulties. A superb song for children.
With this post, now the 1960 film ‘Phool Aur Kaliyan’ makes its debut on our blog.
Song – Mann Re Mat Ro, Kal Aayega Tera Savera (Phool Aur Kaliyan) (1960) Singer – Madhura Shantaram, Lyrics – Bharat Vyas, MD – Pt Shivram
Lyrics
mann re

kal aayega tera savera
mann re

kal aayega tera savera
mann re. . .
aas ka taar
bada naazuk hai
aas ka taar

nahin tootne dena. . .
peer jagat ki sehna
dheeraj nahin chhootne dena
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re. . .
is jeevan mein
daata ne to
is jeevan mein
daata ne to
sukh dukh dono baante
jitne phool aur kaliyaan hain
utne hi hain kaante
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re. . .
aansoo ke dhaagon se pagle
aansoo ke dhaagon se pagle
bhaavon kyon seena
jeevan ek kasauti hai
tu hanste hanste jeena
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re
mat ro
kal aayega tera savera
mann re. . .

कल आएगा तेरा सवेरा

roz aise hi hota hai, it happens almost every day. Every day, there is a song that comes to mind, or a song that someone reminds me of, or a ‘new’ old song that I get to hear – a song that is not yet on the blog, or maybe not yet online even. There is an immediate urge, a rush to sit down at my desk and finger type a new post on my laptop. And also upload it online, if need be. Many a time I even start it. The melody continues to hum in the mind. Always overlaid on to another melody that is now a fixture in the backdrop, a melody that you have heard me mention often in my writings – ye hansta hua kaarvan zindagi ka na poochho chala hai kidhar

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
—————————————————————-
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 4 # Suresh Rajvanshi -1
——————————————————————-
The journey through the HFGK is getting more excited and thrilling day by day, though so far I have been able to glance through only the few preliminary years of this decade 1971-1980. And I am realizing that apart from ‘Bhoole Bisre Geet’ we do also have some ‘Bhoole Bisre Artists’, like the singer of this song that is being presented today.
