Mukesh, known for singing memorable sad songs, has also sung some memorable happy/romantic songs. In fact, Mukesh’s voice sounded like that of a man who wore his feelings on his sleeve, whatever the nature of the song. Perhaps the listeners regarded him as common man’s voice.

There are many songs that I describe as “chaayageet” songs. “Chaayageet” songs by my definition are those which are best listened to at night, that too alone. Words like “raat” and “tanhaayi” tend to indicate that the song is a “chaayageet” song.

Wow, what a song ! I have listened to this song many a times even though I did not have an inkling about which movie this song was from, or even who the singers were. I thought that Mukesh and Lata were the singers. But I find now that the female voice is Suman Kalyanpur. I think Suman Kalyanpur has sung similar number of songs as Mukesh and she had a Mukesh like midas touch too. A large number of her songs have gone on to become very popular, just like how it was with Mukesh.
