Ye hariyaali aur ye raastaa
Posted on: January 16, 2012
What is the first song that comes to one’s mind when one talks of the movie “Hariyaali Aur Raasta” (1962) ? Its title song, did you say ? What about the song Bol meri taqdeer me kya hai or Ibtidaa-e-ishq mein ham or Kho gaya hai mera pyaar or Laakhon taare asmaan mein or Teri yaad dil se bhulaane chala hoon ?

I have discussed one song from “Suhaag Sindoor” (1961) in the past. At that time, I had little knowledge about that movie.

“Bhaabhi Ki Choodiyaan” (1961) is a movie that, for most people, is associated with the immortal song Jyoti kalash chhalke. This song, written in chaste Sanskritised Hindi is so soothing to the mind that one can listen to this song every morning. And indeed there are readers of this blog who do just that every morning.

Aao Pyaar Karen (1964) is a romantic comedy from the house of S Mukherjee, and Filmalya Productions, directed by RK Nayyar. The normal rich-girl-poor-boy-love-story, in this case, is presented as a comedy, and not a sob story. The male lead actor, as with many S Mukherjee productions, is Joy Mukherjee, paired with Saira Banu. At the time of making this movie, both the actors were comparatively fresh in the industry, having made their debut in 1960 (Love In Simla) and 1961 (Junglee). The other key players in the star cast are Rajendranath, Madhavi, Marilyn, Shyam Chatterjee, Jayant Shah etc.

Typically our readers send us farmaishes of songs and we in this blog struggle to fulfil all these farmaishes. And it is my fond wish that a day will come when the shoe will be on the other foot and our readers will struggle to think of songs as farmaishes. 😀

“Prem Parbat” (1973) is a movie starring Hema Malini,Rehana sultaan, Nana Palsikar, Aghaa, Sanjana, Satish Kaul etc. The movie sank without a trace. And the video of this movie is apparently no longer available. So it is not possible to tell for sure what kind of a movie it was.

I have listened to the audio of this song many a times, and this song never fails to cheer me up. This is indeed a “feel good” song.
This song is from the movie “Jeene Ki Raah”(1969) and seeing that the title figues in the lyrics, the son can be called the title song as well as the theme song of this movie as well. This song is a get together song on the occasion of silver jubilee of a mill, where Jeetendra sings this song in the gathering. Yes this song wears so many hats !

The first Hindi movie made by an NRI (non resident India) was “Shalimar” (1978) by Krishna Shah which was made with great publicity and fanfare and it was thought that the movie was going to be another “Sholay”, if not bigger. When finally the movie was released, it turned out that the movie was huge let down. The movie failed to last for more than one week in the movie halls.

Tinke pe tinkaa chhutti ke din kaa

In this blog, I typically hope to discuss 6-7 songs a day and that enables me to complete a century in 16 days. This is obviuosly subject to conditions being favourable. For instance, I need to have a free hand with no one nagging me. (You got the point I hope) 🙂 With holidays on, and my spouse and kid and pets together, it naturally becomes difficult.
