(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-53)
—————————–
We resume our journey of Kavi Pradeep songs after a gap of more than a month. I had planned to post Kavi Pradeep songs regularly because we have yet to cover many of the songs that he wrote for Hindi films.
Today’s song is from the movie ‘Basant Panchami-1956’. This movie has ten songs written by Kavi Pradeep. Chitragupt was the music director. Asha Bhonsle and Kavi Pradeep were the playback singers. The movie had two duets and eight solo songs by Asha Bhonsle. So far, five songs from this movie have already been posted on this blog. Today we are going to listen to the sixth song from this movie.
‘Basant Panchami-1956’ was directed by Jayant Desai for ‘Hemlata Pictures’. Jayant Desai was also the producer of this movie and it was passed by Censor Board on 24.07.1956. ‘Basant Panchami-1956’ was a devotional or ‘bhakti pradhaan’ movie. The cast of this movie included Nirupa Roy, Anant Kumar, Jeevan, S.N. Tripathi, Radhakishan, Yashodhara Katju, Niranjan Sharma, Kumkum, Babu Raje, Charubala, Anand Joshi, Sukumar, Dubey, Uma Dutt, Naazi, Shri Bhagwan and others.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 84
Today, 20th January 2026 is the 21st death anniversary of one of the most glamorous actress of the 70s and early 80s – Parveen Babi.
Parveen Babi was an iconic Indian actress and model who became one of the most successful and highest-paid stars in Hindi cinema during the 1970s and early 1980s. She was celebrated for her westernized fashion sense and glamorous screen presence, which broke traditional stereotypes of the era.
Born on April 4, 1954 in Junagadh, Gujarat, into the noble Babi Dynasty. She attended St. Xavier’s College, Ahmedabad, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. Her academic background was considered quite prestigious for a film actress at the time.

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet #
————————————
Today’s song is from the movie ‘Dukh Sukh-1974’. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 11.11.1974. This seems to be an obscure movie of its time as I could not find any video of the movie or its’ songson internet or any information about this movie except in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980). The details about this movie as mentioned in the Geet Kosh-Vol-V are as given below. I had shared these details earlier while presenting a Rafi song from this movie,‘mere paas aao de do sahaaraa’.
When I presented the above song from this movie more than five years back, only couple of songs from this movie were available, whereas many more songs from this movie have now become available.
‘Dukh Sukh-1974’ was directed by Majid Maqbool for Nausheen Films, Bombay. This movie had Sandeep Kumar, Shreedevi (I am not aware if she is the same Sreedevi that we know), Chaand, Majid Maqbool, Farshori, Swaroop, Shams, Lalitashri, Jyoti, Chandermohan, Revati, Hafeez, Khan, Pritam, Vijaya and others. As per HFGK Vol – V (1971-1980) this movie had five songs written by Javed Qadri and composed to music by Vitthal-Mumtaz. Geet Kosh has left space indicating more songs might have been recorded for this movie. The singers for the five songs listed in Geet Kosh are Manna Dey, Shashilata Virk, Mohd Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, and Krishna Kalle.

#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————
The song in this post is from the movie ‘Bandhan-1956’. I do not remember to have listened to the songs from this movie earlier or maybe I have forgotten them. The video of this movie is now available on internet which I guess was not the case years back when other songs from this movie were posted on the blog. I have not watched this movie so far, so can’t say much about this movie. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 05.11.1956.
‘Bandhan-1956’ was directed by Hem Chander for ‘Sarkar Productions, Calcutta’. It was produced by D.K. Sarkar. The cast of this movie has Meena Kumari, Pradeep Kumar, Shashikala, Motilal, Achala Sachdev, David, Kammo, Natwar, Nana Palsikar, Meenu, Bhupendra Kapoor, Leela Mishra, Shaikh, Sarita Devi, Shivjee Bhai, Pt Tulee, Ranu Mukherjee, Asit Sen, Zahar Ganguly and others. Music for this movie was composed by Hemant Kumar. This movie has seven songs which were all written by lyricist Rajinder Krishan. The playback singers for the songs of this movie were Hemant Kumar, Bela Mukherjee, Lata Mangeshkar, and Asha Bhonsle. So far three songs from this movie have already been posted on this blog.

Hullo Atuldom
Back after a year of inactivity. My last post was on 27th December 2025. Since then the calendar has changed and we are into 2026- a New Year. Even if the gap has been of only a few days, it feels like I have been away forever- feels like an Year of Inactivity. 🙂
“Inspector” (1956) was a film that had 9 songs with the song ‘dil chhed koi aisa naghma’ having two versions – in Hemant Kumar’s & Lata Mangeshkar’s voices. The following songs of the film are present on the blog:-

Today’s song is from a Muslim Social film Paak Daman-1957.
1957 – what a year it was ! The best year in the Golden Era! The best year in the 50s! The best year for melody and music! Such wonderful films came this year!!! The lineup of 1957 films looks like the selection of the creamy layer in everlasting music – ‘Mother India’, ‘Pyasa’, ‘Tumsa Nahin Dekha’, ‘Bhabhi’, ‘Asha’, ‘Miss Mary’, ‘Naya Daur’, ‘Do Aankhen Barah Haath’, ‘Paying Guest’, ‘Nau Do Gyarah’, ‘Dekh Kabira Roya’. ‘Nausherwaan e Adil ‘, ‘Gateway Of India’, ‘Hum Panchhi Ek Daal Ke ‘, ‘Kathputali’, ‘Sharada’ . . . Films like Baarish, Ab Dilli door nahin, Abhiman, Bada Bhai, Begunah, Beti, Chhote Babu, Coffee House, Dushman, Johnny Walker, Miss Bombay, Miss India, Mr. X, Narsi Bhagat, Paak Daman, Pawanputra Hanuman, Ustad, Zamana.
Films produced in Madras were quite popular. AVM’s ‘Bhabhi’, ‘Miss Mary’ and ‘Hum Panchhi Ek Daal Ke’, Prasad Production’s first Hindi film ‘Sharda’, and MV Raman’s film ‘Asha’ played havoc with their captive audiences. Films from south somehow have always concocted a success formula, mixing comedy, tragedy, social message, excellent production values and above all superb music, which made their films very popular everywhere.
