Today’s song is from a religious film ” Raami Dhoban”-1953. It is described and classified as a ” Bhakti Pradhan” (भक्ती प्रधान ) Genre film in HFGK.
Those who own copies of HFGK, know that every film that is featured herein is classified and described to which genre it belongs to – like Historical, Social, Comedy, Stunt, Folklore, Imaginary, Costume, Mythological, Mystery etc etc. To indicate ‘ Dharmik’ films, 2 Genres are used. One is Mythological (पौराणिक ) and the other is Religious (भक्ती प्रधान ). Now, what is the difference between these two ? The difference is about the source of the story. All stories from Ramayan, Mahabharat and all Puranas are classified as Mythological and all other stories about the Bhaktas, Saints, Folkstories and stories about The god and the religion carried through generations and storybooks are listed as Religious films. Thus, a film on Ramayan story or Waman Avtar is Mythological and a film on Dussehra or Yatrik is called Religious. I hope this point is clear now.
Today’s film Raami Dhoban-1953 is a Religious film or भक्ती प्रधान film. This is because this story is not from any Holy Scripture but it is a Folklore carried through generations and religious books. In Hindu religion there are 2 ‘DHOBANS’ (washerwomen), who were famous. One was who came in the Uttarakhand part of Ramayana , whose husband refused her entry into his house stating that he is not Shri Ram to forgive her night out somewhere else, like Seeta. This had led to the exile of Seeta etc. The second Dhoban was during the 15th Century, in Bengal, where her love story with a Vaishnav Priest-Chandidas was compared to love of Radha and krishna. In those times this love affair of a Vaishnava invited a lot of criticism also.
For a long time since the ” Bhakti Movement” in India, in the period from the 6th Century to the 17 th Century, the disputes between the ‘ Shaivas’ and the ‘Vaishnavas’ virtually divided the educated classes all over the country. They are clearly identified from their Tilak on the forehead. V Shaped perpendicular Tilak on the forehead (as on Balaji) means ‘ Vaishnav’ and the 3 lined horizontal Tilak on forehead (like Shiv ji) means ‘Shaiva’. These followers of Vishnu and Shiv, once upon a time were quite diehards, but in today’s modern era most people neither know the difference nor they care two hoots !
The story of Raami Dhoban is not new to Hindi films. Calcutta’s New Theatres had made a film in Banglea – Chandidas in 1932 on this story. A Hindi remake of this film was made as Chandidas in 1934, with Saigal and Uma Shashi. R.C.Boral had composed excellent songs in it ( famous song was ‘ Prem nagar mein basaungi ghar main’). The same story was made into today’s film Raami Dhoban-1953. The producer Ramesh vyas made this film under his own banner-Navkala Niketan, bombay. The film was directed by Hiren Bose and the music director was also Hiren Bose !
There are rare cases in Hindi films where the director and the composer are the same for a film. During the 1930’s it was Pt. Badri Prashad (2 films) and in the 1940s it was Pt. S.N.tripathi (18 films), who were directors as well as composers of their some films. After these 3 cases, I have not known any other such case in Hindi films. Perhaps there were no multifaceted artistes anymore in the film industry, like the oldies.
Hiren Bose was actually the Mentor of Anil Biswas. On his suggestion and help only he shifted to Bombay from Calcutta. While film music crossed several barriers, the films themselves proved to be a mix of experts from every corner of India. Hindi films have actors, Directors and composers from almost every state. In this, however, Bengal has taken a lead in providing the raw material.
Several well known actors came from Bengal. Many Directors like Bimal Roy ,Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Nabendu Ghosh, Basu Chaterjee, Basu Bhattacharya, Shakti Samant, Amiya Chakravarty, Gyan Mukherjee etc. enriched the Hindi cinema. Music directors who came from Bengal like, Hemant Kumar, Salil Chaudhari, S D Burman, Anil Biswas, K C Dey, Pankaj Mullik etc provided us wonderful everlasting music. Most of the directors and composers from Bengal are well known to most of us,but there was ONE name that appeared in many categories like Actor, Director, Story writer, S/Play writer, Lyricist, and Composer too, yet that name is as obscure today as it can be !
That name is HIREN BOSE ( Hirendra Kumar Bose).
Born in Calcutta on 26-9-1903,Hiren completed his college education and learnt classical music & Rabindra sangeet to such proficiency that soon he earned titles of “Vidya Bhushan” and “Sangeet Ratna “. He wrote in Bengali papers and for Bangla films too. In the years 1928 to 1932, Hiren had joined HMV as a Music Director. Here he became a close friend of Kazi Nazrul Islam and Dhiren Das. Both Kazi and Hiren wrote lyrics for songs in HMV .
Around 1929,a new , young and attractive singer came to HMV. Her name was KANAN BALA. She came for recording songs. Soon the handsome Hiren cast his spell on Kanan and she started considering him as her mentor in HMV. They were a quartet of friends, Kanan, Hiren, Kazi and Dhiren. In HMV Kanan recorded many songs set to tune or written by Hiren Bose. In 1932,this team left HMV, on the issue of Royalty and joined the newly formed Megaphone Recording company. Here too after 2 years, this team left Megaphone and joined Columbia recording company. By 1934,Hiren wrote in his autobiography- JATI SMAR (My memories)-later that he had lost interest in Kananbala.
Hiren’s eyes were now set on a bigger Horizon -BOMBAY. he knew that remaining in Calcutta may not be suitable for him. Meanwhile he had met another Struggler, ANIL BISWAS. Hiren advised him to go to Bombay for a brighter future and also promised him all his help. Although, by then ANIL BISWAS was comfortably placed in Calcutta, he left for Bombay as per Hiren’s advice. Hiren Bose was a highly respected name in the musical circles of Calcutta.
Hiren started working in Bombay. His fame as a versatile film person had already reached Bombay and he had no difficulty in getting work there. Hiren directed Dharam ki Devi-35, followed by Piya ki Jogan-36 and then Mahageet 1937. As per his promise he gave a chance to Anil Biswas to give music,independently to DHARAM KI DEVI-1935. As such earlier he had composed a song in Bharat ki Beti-35- “Tere poojan ko Bhagwan” sung by Rattan bai. But then he had shared the Music direction with Zande Khan. That song had become quite popular then.
Hiren Bose was very fond of acting in films and he also acted in MAHAGEET-1937. It was in this film that Anil Biswas FIRST introduced playback singing in a Bombay film. (In Calcutta R C Boral had started playback in 1935 itself). The FIRST ever Playback song in this film was ” Jeevan hai ek kahani, Duniya bhi hai ek kahani ” . It was sung by Anil Biswas and was filmed on Hiren Bose on the screen. Thus Hiren Bose’s name became a Historical name in Bombay film industry. This was, Anil Biswas repaid the debt of Hiren Bose, in helping him to get established in the Bombay Music field.
(Ref- ‘The early composers- Music beyond Boundaries by Dr. Ashok Ranade pp 183-186).
After Mahageet, Hiren Bose got an offer from Madras to direct a Telugu film- Bhakta Jaydev-1938,which he did successfully.
Hiren Bose kept on shuttling between Bombay and Calcutta, doing some films here and some there. He also acted in some Bangla films during that period. He was so versatile in many departments that he did acting, directing, lyrics, singing, and composing. His complete Filmography is not available but some details are available.
As a Director 15 films are to his credit- Chup-31, Mahua-34, Dharm ki Devi-35, Piya ki Jogan-36, Mahageet-37, Bhakta jaidev-38, India in Afica-39, Amar Geeti-40, Kabi Joydeb-41, Daasi-44, Banjarey-48, Sree Tulsidas-50, Ghungroo-52, Raami Dhoban-53 and Ektara-57.
He acted in Rishir prem-31, Chup-31, Udayer pathe-44, Towards the Light-44, Sesh Raksha-44 and Mahageet-37. As a writer- Meerabai (s/Play and story)-32 and Rajrani Meera(story)-33. As a composer- India in Africa-39, Kabi Joydeb-41, Raami Dhoban-53.
After directing his last film Ektara in 1957, Hiren Bose lived a retired life. His last few years were mostly unhealthy and he spent time writing lyrics for geets in Bangla which were usually sung by Hemant Kumar, Kanan Bala and Suprova sarkar. Hiren Bose died on 18-6-1987 and one of the most versatile, multifaceted and multilingual artiste disappeared forever….
The story of the love between Chandidas and Raami was not an ordinary one. The other day I found this story on speakingtree.in, on the internet. Here it is….
Chandidas was the son of a Brahman priest. He was very handsome, charming and of a quiet countenance, but was forever lost in some world of his own. His father, tired of him, died, and Chandidas was forced to succeed him as the purohit of the local temple of a goddess.
Chandidas’ heart was never into these frivolities. He was devoted to Lord Krishna immensely. Then, one day, as he was sitting silently on the banks of the river in their village, his heart filled with sadness and disillusionment at the world. Legend has it that the Devi of the temple of their village appeared there, and told him that he would become a great poet and philosopher.
Then, when he was returning, he beheld a washerwoman washing clothes. When she got up, the two looked at each other, and it was love at first sight.
Chandidas thought that Rami, the washerwoman, was divinely beautiful. She was the source of strength and courage to him, just as Radha had been for Krishna. And this marked the beginning of Chandidas’ poetry.
Chandidas’s brother, who was ashamed of Chandidas because of his romantic involvement with the low-caste Rami, forced him to take part in a shudhikaran ceremony and purge himself of the sin of Rami’s touch. But just at that moment, Rami came, weeping and struggling as guards stopped her. ‘Chandithakur, would you leave me forever for society? Do I have just this much value for you?’
Chandidas was put in a dilemma. Here was the woman he loved like no one else, who always stood by him when people turned on him. And on the other side, the society his father had structured, and the people who revered his family, still stuck in social conventions and stupid rites and traditions.
Chandidas made his decision on the spot. He walked towards Rami, took her hand, and led her away from the village forever. They stopped at the house of Ganesha the singer, where Chandidas and Rami spent the rest of their lives singing hymns for Krishna and Radha.
Let us now enjoy the duet by two Bengali singers – Geeta Roy and Hemant kumar….

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutante Movie-Bhagwaan Samaaye Sansaar Mein-1976)
——————————————-——————————
Today we get introduced to the ‘1976’ movie ‘Bhagwaan Samaaye Sansaar Mein’.
It was directed by Satish Kumar for ‘Jayshree Enterprises’. Babubhai N. Shah was the producer of this movie.
The cast of this movie included Kanan Kaushal, Ashish Kumar, Bharat Bhushan, Abhi Bhattacharya, Jeevan, B.M. Vyas, Satyadeep, Mohan Choti, Jayshree T., Lalita Kumari, Radheshyam, Chand Usmani, Anant Marathe, Tuntun, Sundar, Bhagwan Sinha, Moolchand, Ratna, Master Alankar, Baby Nilofar, Baby Rehana and others.
Story, screenplay and dialogues of this movie were written by Pt. R. Priyadarshi. Editing of this movie was done by Kamlakar.
‘Bhagwaan Samaaye Sansaar Mein-1976’ was passed by Censor Board on 12.11.1976.
This movie has six songs –all written by B.D. Mishra. Music for this movie was composed by Anil-Arun.
Mukesh, Mahendra Kapoor, Asha Bhonsle, Anuradha and Usha Mangeshkar had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
Here is the list of songs in this movie:-
| SNo | Song Title | Singer/s |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Bhagwaan samaaye sansaar mein | Mukesh, Anuradha Paudwal |
| 02 | Jay jay Lakshmi maataa, tu sun le meri pukaar | Anuradha Paudwal |
| 03 | Aur bairaagi ban anuraagi, main hoon niraali | Asha Bhonsle |
| 04 | Meri laaj rahe nandlala | Mahendra Kapoor, chorus |
| 05 | Aaj baba aayenge, ham paawan ho jaayenge | Usha Mangeshkar |
| 06 | Paap na hone de dharti pe ye tera apmaan hai… dekh le aa ke apnaa jahaan | Mahendra Kapoor, Anuradha Paudwal |
Today we present the first song from this movie on the blog. This song is the title song as well as the ‘theme song’ of this movie which emphasizes the presence of God in everything that exists in this ‘mortal world’.
The first part of this song is played in the back ground when the titles of this movie are rolling on the screen.
This song is sung by Mukesh and Anuradha Paudwal. In the second part of this song we can see Jeevan (as Narad muni and disguising as Sadhu later) and Master Alankar lip-syncing this song in the voices of Mukesh and Anuradha Paudwal respectively. In this part the first stanza of the first part is repeated and added with another stanza. In the video we can also see other artistes and some child artistes too.
Picturisation of the third part shows Ashish Kumar lip-syncing in Mukesh’s voice and we can see many others listening to him.
The fourth part of this song is a sad version where we can see Kanan Kaushal and Ashish Kumar helping sick people and getting tired and exhausted in the end. This part is played in the background. We can also see other artist in the video of this song.
I guess that this movie was inspired by the success of ‘Jai Santoshi Maa-1975’ and the lead pair of this movie was repeated here too. HFGK (Vol-V) also mentions that this movie was earlier titled as ‘Kan Kan Mein Bhagwan’ as the records of songs of this movie were released by the this title.
Let us now listen to the today’s song of this movie and welcome ‘Bhagwaan Samaaye Sansaar Mein-1976’ on the blog …
Lyricist for the song is B.D. Mishra and music is composed by Anil-Arun.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————
I do not remember to have listened to the songs from this movie ‘Dev Kanya-1963’. So, when I came across this movie on the blog, I listened to its only song available on the blog. And what a song it is. I immediately fell in love with this duet song ‘zaraa pehchaano to main kaun kahaan se aayi’.
As mentioned by Atul ji in this post this movie seems to be a forgotten movie. That could be the reason the beautiful songs from this movie may have failed to catch the attention of music lovers. I have listened to the few songs from this movie already available on the internet and all of them appear to be nice songs to me.
As per information available in HFGK Vol-IV (1961-1970) ‘Dev Kanya-1963’ was directed by Sri Nath Tripathi (S.N. Tripathi) for ‘Sur Sagar and Amrit Films’.
It had Anita Guha, Mahipal, B.M. Vyas, Mukri, Krishna Kumari, Babu Raje, Mishrilal, Sheela Kashmiri, S.K. Shukla, Ratnamala, Radheshyam, Shri Bhagwan, Uma Khosla, Tiwari, Sudarshan Kumar, Madhumati and others.
This movie has seven songs penned by B.D. Mishra. And these were composed to music by S.N. Tripathi.
Singer’s name is not mentioned for one song and the singer’s names that we get from the other six songs are Asha Bhonsle, Mukesh, Mohd Rafi, and Mahendra Kapoor.
As mentioned above only one song from this movie has been posted on the blog earlier on 08.09.2013. That was long ago.
Today we listen to the second song from this movie. It is another nice duet song sung by Mohd Rafi and Asha Bhonsle.
Only audio of this song is available.
I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.
Let us enjoy this duet song from ‘Dev Kanya-1963’ now…

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutante Movie-Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976)
——————————————-——————————
(A tribute to Shashi Kapoor on his birth anniversary 18th March)
——————————————-————————————————————————-
Today 18th March’2023 is the eighty-fifth birth anniversary of actor-producer and director Shashi Kapoor.
He was born on 18th March’1938 and he passed away on 4th December’2017 at the age of seventy-eight.
Shashi Kapoor needs no introduction. There is a long list of movies he acted in. Many movies in the ‘seventies’ had him playing ‘lead’ or ‘supporting’ roles, and he was part of many movies of that decade (1971-1980) and even later.
Shashi Kapoor who started as a ‘child artist’ in Hindi movies later became Assistant Director, Actor, Producer and Director. He won many accolades and awards in his long film career.
As a tribute to him today I am presenting a song from one of his movies from the ‘seventies’.
We will get introduced to this movie on the blog today. This movie is ‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’.
It was directed by for Sameer Ganguly for ‘Lakshmi Movies’.
‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’ was produced by Anand Bhargava. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 09.06.1976.
The cast of this movie included Saira Banu, Shashi Kapoor, Romesh Sharma, Farida Jalal, Nazeer Hussain, Urmila Bhatt, Krishnakant, Manik Dutt, Jagdish Raj, Sharad Kumar, Pinchoo Kapoor, Master Shaka, Lalita Kumari, Tiger Kapoor, and others with Narendranath and Ranjeet.
Jagdeep and Junior Mehmood had a friendly appearance in this movie.
Story of this movie was written by the ‘Lakshmi Movies Story Department’. Scenario and dialogues of this movie was written by Agha Jani Kashmiri. Screenplay of this movie was written by Naiem. Editing of this movie was done by V.K. Naik.
‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’ has five songs in it which all were written by Anand Bakshi. Music for this movie was composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle and Mohd Rafi had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
Here is the list of songs in this movie :-
| SNo | Song Title | Singer/s |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | O baba, shaadi tum o baba na karnaa | Lata Mangeshkar |
| 02 | Ban gayi baat baaton mein … | Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle |
| 03 | Ae, oh, chup raho naa… aaj ham tum donon | Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle |
| 04 | Teri meri baat nahin kismat ka khel hain saara… Koi jeeta koi haaraa | Mohd Rafi |
| 05 | Hamne har ek galat kaam kiya hai … | Kishore Kumar |
I have neither watched this movie nor I have any recollections of songs associated with this movie’s name. However when I listened to the songs of this movie I find today’s song a little familiar and one which I had listened to earlier on radio or elsewhere.
Today’s song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. It is a ‘romantic song’ which is picturised on Shashi Kapoor and Saira Banu.
We can also see Romesh Sharma driving towards he end of the song.
Let us now listen to the song and remember Shashi Kapoor, thanking him for giving us so many fond memories of his movies and the various characters he essayed on the screen, some of which become memorable and unforgettable in the history of Indian Cinema.

Blog Day : |

Today (8 march 2023) is Holi, the festival of colour. The mythology and history behind the festival are well known and need not be repeated.
Still there were some facts about Holi that I was not aware of. For example, I was not aware that Holi festival falls on Poornima (full moon day), which is the last day of the month of falgun (also called Phagun). This is in fact the last day of the Vikram Samwat Calender. The next day, viz firstd day of The month of Chaitra starts is the first day of the new year of Vikram Samwat.
This full moon day, third full moon of the year, is called worm moon in Western Astronomy circles.
That way, this festival of Holi is the reverse of Deepawali that falls on Amawasya, on the middle of the month of Kartik. In A way, Holi marks the beginning of summer whereas Deepawali marks the beginning of winter.
It is interesting how moon plays such important roles in determining the dates of India festivals.
Since Holi marks the beginning of Summer, so it means that days (that were still shorter than night) begin to get longer. Finally it is on 21 March 2023 that day and night become equal. It is called equinox.
Heavens this year have arranged for two interesting event on the occasion of Holi.:) Just before Holi, the world witnessed the sight of Jupiter and Venus coming close to each other in the evening sky. This was the most important astronomical event of the year.
on 24 march 2023, there will be venus eclipse, viz Moon will cover Venus just like it sometimes covers Sun to cause solar eclipse. It needs full moon to cause solar eclipse, but this venus eclipse will be caused by a thin dooj ka chaand. 🙂 This event is technically called Lunar occultation of Venus.
This festival is being celebrated for thousands of years, it predates even Vikram Samwat, which is 2080 years old. I wonder what calender was used to determine the date of Holi festival (and other festivals) before the Vikram Samwat.
On this occasion, here is a Holi song from “Hamaara Ghar”(1950).
“Hamaara Ghar”(1950) was directed by Nanabhai Bhatt for Hindustan Chitra, Bombay. The movie had Durga Khote, Umakant Desai, Veera, Agha, Meena Kumari, Geeta Bose, David, Jankidas, Ramesh Gupta etc in it.
The movie had seven songs in it. Six songs from the movie have been discussed in the blog in the past. Here are the details:-
| Blog post number | song | Date of post | Singer(s) | lyricist |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9270 | Kahaan chale sarkaar (Hamaara Ghar) | 9 January 2014 | Shamshad Begam, Kishore Kumar | Rammurty Chaturvedi |
| 13261 | Chupke chupke dil mein mere aane waale ho (Hamaara Ghar) | 21 May 2017 | Geeta Dutt, Rafi | Asad Bhopali |
| 14391 | Chaandni chhitki huyi hai muskuraati raa hai (Hamaara Ghar) | 4 June 2018 | Geeta Dutt, Rafi | Anjum Jaipuri |
| 15645 | Teri tirchhi najar teri patli kamar (Hamaara Ghar) | 7 June 2020 | Rafi, Shamshad Begam | Bharat Vyas |
| 15681 | Chori chori mat dekh balam (Hamaara Ghar) | 23 June 2020 | Shamshad Begam, Rafi | Bharat Vyas |
| 16436 | Dekho to dil hi dil mein jalte hain jalne waale (Hamaara Ghar) | 24 June 2021 | Geeta Dutt, Shamshad Begam, Shanti Sharma | Anjum Jaipuri |
Here is this joyous Holi song from “Hamaara Ghar”(1950). This song is sung by Shamshad Begam, Rafi and chorus. Bharat Vyas is the lyricist. Music is composed by Chitragupta.
Only the audio of this song is available. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.
With this song, the seventh and final song from the movie, all songs of “Hamaara Ghar”(1950) have been covered in the blog. This movie thus joins the list of movies that have been YIPPEED in the blog.
I take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and safe holi.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Composer– R.D. Burman-Parchhaayiyaan-1972)
——————————————-———————————————
In this post I present a song from the ‘1972’ movie ‘Parchhaayiyaan’. Though the music of this movie is composed by R.D. Burman, none of the songs from this movie ring a bell for me. I may have forgotten them, in case I had listened to them, or may be I failed to associate them with this title.
I think this movie was a lesser known and forgotten movie of its time and so its songs were also forgotten.
‘Parchhaayiyaan-1972’ was directed by Sharan Kumar Chand for ‘Noorjahan Films’. It was produced by K. Zaidi and Azad.
It had Vinod Khanna, Reshma, Bindu, Sujit Kumar, Iftekhar, Sajjan, Murad, Tarun Ghosh, Bhagwan Sinha, Meena T., Mohan Choti, Ranjeet (guest appearance), Shaukat Kaifi, Mona, Kunwar Ajit, and Indrani Mukherjee.
Story and screenplay for this movie was written by Ranjan Bose. Dialogues of this movie were written by Rahi Masoom Raza.
Editing of this movie was done by Subhash Gupta.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.11.1972.
“Parchhaayiyaan-1972” has five songs written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by R.D. Burman. Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd Rafi, Kishore Kumar, and Asha Bhonsle had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
This movie had made its debut on the blog on 05.09.2014 with its song ‘saanson mein kabhi, dil mein kabhi, nazron mein rahaa karnaa’ sung by Mohd Rafi and Asha Bhonsle.
Thereafter second song from this movie i.e. ‘khuli khuli zulfen khoye khoye nain’ sung by Kishore Kumar was posted on the blog on 02.04.2015.
he song being covered today is the third song from this movie to be presented on the blog. Today’s song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar. Vinod Khanna and Bindu lip-sync on screen. This song is shown happening in a ‘village function’ and it seems to be inspired from ‘folk music’ (which I am unable to identify).
Also seen in the picturisation of the song are Sujit Kumar and Reshma. Both of them are ‘jealously’ watching Vinod Khanna and Bindu doing this ‘romantic’ number. One can even notice actress Reshma ‘shaking’ in anger. 🙂
Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist and music is composed by R.D. Burman for the song.
let us now enjoy the song …

“Bada Kabootar”(1973) was produced and directed by Deven Verma for Navratna Films, Bombay. This movie, described as a “social” movie in HFGK had Ashok Kumar, Rehana Sultan, Nikhilesh, Deven Verma, Keshto Mukherji, Subroto, Ashoo, Pinchoo Kapoor, Leela Mishra, Paul Sharma, Jal Parvez, Helen etc in it. The movie also had lots of “new discoveries” viz Saajan, Kailash Sharma, Sameena, Master Ashwin and Master Ramesh.
“Bada Kabootar”(1973) had five songs in it. One song, which was the movie opening song cum title song, has been covered in the past.
Here is the second song from “Bada Kabootar”(1973) to appear in the blog. This song is a duet which is sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. Yogesh is the lyricist. Music is composed by R D Burman.
The song is picturised as a running around the trees genre of song on Rehana Sultan and Nikhilesh (I guess). It is a nice hummable song, but I had never heard this song before. The movie flopped and so the songs of this movie did not have the opportunity to get popular among music lovers.

This article is the 17500th song post for the blog.

28 january 2023 saw song post number 17400 appearing on the blog. Today (25 february 2023) finds us reaching song post number 17500 on the blog.
Yes, this post is the 175th century post for the blog. It has come in 28 days, which equals the number of days taken for the previous century. So this year 2023 has seen two centuries, both clocked in 28 days apiece. It is a vast improvement over the average days taken for the blog centuries of last few years. We are still far off from the all time record of a century in 11 days (achieved in 2011) but things are looking up as far as Blog daily strike rate is concerned.
The blog century posts now a days are decided at the last moment. The previous century post number 17400 was decided at the last moment, on the very day on which the song was covered. This song post number 17500 is no different.
Song post number 17400 was a duet song. So is the case for this song post number 17500. But that is the only similarity between the two century posts.
Post number 17400 was a duet sung by two obscure singers. That was the only duet sung by the singers in Hindi movies. The singers in the duet song of this post number 17500 are both legends in Hindi playback singing.
This song under discussion in this post is sung by Rafi and Shamshad Begam.
Why them and no one else ? There are good reasons for that.
As things stand in HFM, there have been only eight pair of singers in the Golden era of HFM who have sung over hundred duets. Seven pair of such singers have already completed their centuries in the blog. Rafi and Shamshad Begam were the only pair who had not reached their century of duet songs in the blog. With this post, they join the list and the list gets completed.
Here is the list of centurion duet singers in HFM during the golden era of HFM :-
| Singing pair | Duet Songs in the blog | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Rafi-Asha Bhonsle | 561 | This pair holds the Record for highest number of duet songs |
| Rafi-Lata | 349 | Second highest number of duets. Almost all their duets covered in the blog |
| Kishore Kumar-Asha Bhonsle | 268 | |
| Kishore Kumar-Lata | 222 | |
| Mukesh-Lata | 143 | |
| Rafi-Geeta Dutt | 113 | |
| Rafi-Suman Kalyanpur | 108 | |
| Shamshad Begam-Rafi | 100 | They reach 100 duets with this post |
If one feels that there may be other pairs who may join the list in future, that is not the case. Among singers who were active during the golden era, the next duo with highest number of duets is Manna Dey-Lata Mangeshkar with 75. This figure represents their sum total of duets sung in HFM. All of them are already represented in the blog ! Likewise all duets sung by Talat Mehmood-Lata Mangeshkar (61) are already represented in the blog.
The song under discussion is from an obscure movie called “Noor e Yaman”(1956) also alternatively titled “Hatimtai Ka Beta”. This C grade movie was directed by Akkoo. The movie had Chitra, Juliaan, Ridkoo, Krishna Kumari, Heera Saawant, Sardar Mansoor, Ismail, Munshi Munakka, Bismillah, Mitthoo Mian, M. K. Hasan, Mohammed Ali, Mohammed Sandow, Abdulla, Korega, Yadav, Sukumar, Ratan Kumar, Raju, Sattar, Maqbool, Yusuf Azad Qawwal, Samar Roy, Habeeb, Shaikh Hassan, Babu Raaje, Adeeb, Wazir Mohammed Khan etc in it.
The movie had nine songs in it. They were sung by five singers, viz Shewan Rizvi, Yusuf Azad Qawwal, Shamshad Begum, Mohammad Rafi and Asha Bhosle. These nine songs were penned by three lyricists viz Akhtar Romani, Sartaj Romani and Raja Mehndi Ali Khan.
The movie is making its debut in the blog with this song. This movie becomes the 110th movie of 1956 to find representation in the blog. The song is sung by Rafi and Shamshad Begam. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan is the lyricist. Bulo C Rani is the music director.
This song, an obscure song from an obscure movie, sounds like a forgotten gem. It is a song that deserves to be better known among music lovers.
Another blog century achieved. Time to take a fresh guard.
I take this opportunity to thank one and all who are fuelling the musical bandwagon in various ways and are helping it to reach newer and newer destinations with each passing days. May this bandwagon notch many more centuries and see many more interesting records en route.
Song-Jab teri nazar ke teer chale (Noor e Yaman)aka Hatimtai Ka Beta(1956) Singers-Rafi, Shamshad Begam, Lyrics-Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD-Bulo C Rani

bas bas bas bas bas bas bas
poocha hai maine inka pata

rukhsaaron se
beemaaron se
bekaaron se lohaaron se
awaaron se ghamkhaaron se banjaaron se lakadhaaron se
lakadhaa aa aa aa aaro se
na jaane wo kidhar gaye
