Chaandni Raaten – Song No. 10
——————————-

‘Chaandni Raaten’ as a theme is much broader than the ‘Nainon se naina milaa ke’ theme. If I am looking for one songs on youtube, it is giving at least two other songs having the same sort of mukhda or similar words. Some of the popular one are usually posted, but still more songs are founds which are not posted. I am trying to give some order to these posts. And keeping some songs for special occasions also.

Chaandni Raaten – Song No. 9
——————————-

This song is simply my most favourite ‘chaand’ song of the 21st century. The last two decades had a few such music scores in Hindi films, ‘ Khaamoshi ‘ and ‘Parineeta’ are among them which made the decades bearable musically. Favourite ‘chaand’ song from the 90’s is here. Melody in film songs was still trying to keep its head above the general cacophony which passed for music and entertainment.

Chaandni Raaten – Song No. 8
——————————–
The movie “Doosri Shadi” (1947) has eleven songs in it, with music composer Pandit Govindram and lyricist Ishwar Chand Kapoor. The honour of singers are shared between Zohrabai Ambalewali and Shamshad Begum, with a few songs by Rajkumari. From the page on myswar.com this appears to be a female dominated music score with few songs for male singers. There is one name of ‘Ram Kamlani ‘ as singer in a couple of duets with Shamshad Begum. And for two songs singers name are absent. These two songs from this movie are posted in the blog.

Song Singer
Toota hua dil gaayega kya geet suhaana Zohrabai Ambalewali
Dekho ji aayi suhaani raat Rajkumari

Chaandni Raaten – Song no. 6
———————————–

It is G. M. Durrani’s Death Anniversary on 7th September. So this duet by G. M. Durrani and Geeta Dutt is presented as a tribute on this occasion. G. M. Durrani and Geeta Dutt is a rare combination, only 8 duets are posted so far in the blog.

Famous simply as G. M. Durrani(1919-1988), I have wondered what is the full name. Now I find that it is Ghulam Mustafa Durrani. With the surname of Durrani, it was easy to guess his pathan ancestry.

In our film industry,there were two types of actors. One-who were lucky and did not have to struggle at all to become successful as a Hero and Two-those who had to struggle hard to be a hero and successful. We are NOT talking about actors like Raj Kapoor, Shammi or Shashi kapoor or R D Burman, for whom already there was a base made by their fathers in the industry facilitating their acceptance and opportunities. However there are examples like Mehmood -son of a successful actor Mumtaz Ali and some other star sons who had to struggle hard to create their own space in the industry.

Chaandni Raaten : Song no. 5
——————————-

Song no. 05 of the series is a non – film song or rather a ghazal. Singer is Mohammed Rafi, judging by the voice it appear to be late 60’s recording. As the date of the song is not available anywhere that I could find, just making a guess. The poet of this very predictable ghazal is Muzaffar Shahjahanpuri. Now it the turn of music Directors name. The link on youtube is giving the name as Iqbal Qurieshi, and the comments on the youtube imply that the composer is Chhote Iqbal. Myswar.com and the excel sheets are playing it safe and giving the name as just “Iqbaal”. May be the knowledgeable readers of the blog will be able to clarify the name of the composer. By looking in the myswar.com I found the year of the song which is 1970.

Chandni Raaten : Song No. 4
———————————

chaand aahen bharegaa phool dil thhaam lenge
husn ki baat chali to sab teraa naam lenge

chand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
jalaa phir mera dil karoon kya main haaye

dheere dheere chal chaand gagan mein
kahin dhal na jaaye raat toot na jaayen sapne
arey dheere dheere chal chaand gagan mein

khoya khoya chaand khula aasmaan
aankhon mein saari raat jaayegi
ham ko bhi kaise need aayegi ho oo

Like all listeners of film songs on radio I have arrived here having consumed a staple diet of ‘ chand ‘and ‘ raat ‘ related songs. Such songs are numerous and too many to count. If I wish I can fill whole posts with just referring to these songs. There are also song which have such references in the stanzas like thi evergreen song from ‘ Sangam ‘

MAYANAGARI film world can be quite generous to some and extremely harsh to others. Generous to the extent that there are fabulous rewards in it for those who get the right breaks, while it can be quite mean for the people behind the scenes, who help others to succeed.
