This song from “Nagin” (1954) must be one of the most hummable songs. All these days, I thought that it was a devotional song.

Bollywood movies of 1970s typically had a “disguise” song where the hero or heroine would enter the heavy security villain’s den in disguise. Their disguise would always be as the lead dancer (s) of the music troupe that was supposed to entertain the guests of the villain.

I have been listening to this song for over three decades and all these days I was under the impression that it must be a song sung in a mela by two females. Yesterday I watched the picturisation of this song for the first time. Wow ! What picturisation !

“Half Ticket” was a laugh riot featuring Kishore Kumar and Pran. The movie had a heroine too, but I am not able to recall her name, that is how Kishore and Pran centric this movie was. Pran would for ever be after Kishore Kumar much like cartoon characters Tom and Jerry ( or replace their names by any other set of cartoon characters).

The movie is called “Daulat” and this song is an archtypical villain’s den song. Hero and heroine are in “disguise” of sorts and the lady keeps gesturing to the hero during her singing.

The villain and his gangsters appear smarter than usual, and they have taken up positions as waiters in the club where this song is being sung.

While researching Shammi Kapoor’s songs, I was interested to find out who, apart from Rafi, had given playback singing for Shammi Kapoor. I came across a few songs sung by Manna Dey and Mukesh. May be I may find songs sung by a few more male playback singers.

This is a comedy song from “Boyfriend”, a Shammi Kapoor starrer. Shammi Kapoor dresses up like a Sikh gentleman and I must say that the disguise is in a different league than the usual Bollywood movie disguise where the hero, whether the disguise hero often looks indistinguishable from his undisguised self.
