Today, February 13, 2026, is the 97th birth anniversary of Lekh Tandon, one of the versatile yet underrated Hindi filmmakers. Like Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Lekh Tandon made decent films with commercial appeal. He experienced many ups and downs in his filmy career of about five decades. Yet he never gave up the career until his death.

Lekh Raj Tandon (13/02/1929 – 17/10/2017) was born in Lahore. His father, Faqueer Chand Tandon was the classmate of Prithviraj Kapoor. His elder brother, Yograj Tandon was Urdu playwright and worked as a secretary to Prithviraj Kapoor. Lekh Tandon’s father wanted him to compete for Civil Engineering entrance examination of VJTI in Bombay (Mumbai). Sometime in summer vacation, Lekh Tandon visited Bombay and stayed with Prithviraj Kapoor. During his stay, he used to go with Raj Kapoor and Shammi Kapoor for watching the film shoots. He instantly liked the medium of film and decided that he wanted to become the film director.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

Regulars on this blog must have already noticed that nowadays I have been regularly sharing older songs. I had started as a fan and contributor of songs from the seventies – to early eighties. But I like songs from earlier decades as well. But my exposure to songs of 1930s and 1940s may have been limited to the “puraani Filmon ke geet” programme of SLBC that was broadcast from 7:30 AM to 8 AM, ending with a K L Saigal song at the stroke of 8 AM. However thanks to this blog, now I have been listening to many many older songs and also sharing them here. Listening to these songs is always a pleasure.

‘Dozakh’ (2015) was a film about whose existence I came to know about very recently thanks to Sant Kabir’s couplets which was the only song in this film. The title of the film itself put me in a confusion as I heard this word for the first time. Online search revealed that ‘dozakh’ is a Persian word which means ‘hell’ and ‘jahannum’ in Arabic. The full title of the film is ‘Dozakh – In Search of Heaven’. The idea behind the title is that the director wanted to emphasise on a dogmatic belief that a person who strictly follows his own religious guidelines and hates other religions will go to heaven.

The film had Lalit Tiwari and the child actor, Garrick Chaudhari in the main roles, supported by Ruby Saini, Nazim Khan, Khushboo Seth, Pawan Tiwari, Irfaan Rizvi etc. The film was produced by Zaigham Imam and Pawan Tiwari and was directed by Zaigham Imam. This film can be put under the category of the parallel cinema. The film was shown in some international fiom festivals – both in India and abroad during 2013-14. It received Censor Certificate for theatrical release on August 30, 2014 but the film could get the thetrical release in India on March 20, 2015.

Song-Dil dhadakne lagaa sharmaayee nazar (Taajposhi)(1957) Singer-Asha Bhonsle, Lyricist-Anjum Jaipuri, MD-Bipin Babul

Lyrics

dil dhadakne lagaa
sharmaayee nazar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
dil dhadakne lagaa aa

aaj kyaa hai ke ??
rut bahaar aa gayee
phool khilne lagey
aur ghataa chhaa gayee
ho gayeen tez kyun
dhadkanen is qadar
dil dhadakne lagaa
sharmaayee nazar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
dil dhadakne lagaa aa

saans bajte hain yoon
jaise shehnaayiyaan
muskuraane lageen
meree tanhaayiyaan
aarzoo
kya hai dil kee
naheen kuchh khabar
dil dhadakne lagaa
sharmaayee nazar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
dil dhadakne lagaa aa

kaun aayaa yahaan
muskuraataa huaa
chaand taare zameen par
bichhaataa huaa
ho gayaa hai haseen
zindagee kaa safar
dil dhadakne lagaa
sharmaayee nazar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
pyaar le ke chalaa hai
naa jaane kidhar
dil dhadakne lagaa aa
