Here is a song that firmly belongs to the category of “how come this song was not discussed before”. 🙂 This song is from “Guide” (1965), which was a musical extravaganza, among other things.

This is one of my favourite songs from a film I like very much-Funtoosh-1956.

When this film was being advertised, there was quite a curiosity about the meaning of the word FANTOOSH. We had never heard this word- especially in the Non-Hindi belt- and no one knew what it meant. In those days, there was no Internet to find out. I was in college and we used to discuss about this word, advocating our guesses.

In my younger days, the name of the film FUNTOOSH (1956) sounded to me a bit bizarre. I had also heard people using this Hinglish lingo as adjectives in different context. I had no occasion to watch this movie but judging (or misjudging) from the name of the film, I thought that it was a comedy movie and the song ‘ye meri topi palat ke aah’ was a pointer to that. It was only later when I heard ‘dukhi man mere’ I felt that the film was of a different genre.

With this post I am requesting Atul ji to add a new and peculiar category to this blog. This is a song sung on a ‘thhelaa’; and as far as I can recall, this is the only ‘thhelaa’ song in Hindi movies.
