“Sunahre Qadam” (1966) is an obscure movie despite being of relatively recent vintage by the standards of this blog. This movie was a Saraswati Kala Mandir presentation. It was directed by Satish Nigam and its star cast consisted of names like Shashikala, Agha, Sabita Chatterjee, Randhir, Rehman who hardly held any star appeal to attract ordinary movie goers to the movie halls. So it should come as no surprise that the movie failed at the box office.

This movie is called “Chhupa Rustam” (1965) which could translate to “undercover agent” in English. Now this movie and this song actually are “Chhupa Rustam” in the sense that few people including the authoritative Geet Kosh seem to be aware of this song. For that matter, people are not even aware of the existence of this movie either though movies of the same name which were released in 1970s and 1990s are somewhat better known.

Expressions of love are varied and come in multitude of flavors. And probably the largest collection of such flavors are the songs of Hindi films. It is remarkable that in each film, the poets, and the directors get together and attempt to present these expressions of love in novel and as yet untried ways. And so also in this film and this song. The entire song is presented with the hero firmly clasping one hand of the heroine and not letting her go, while all the time he is singing words, exhorting her to leave if she wants to, nobody is stopping her – Jaaiye Jaaiye Huzoor, Aapko Kis Ne Rokaa Hai.
