Genius of Jaidev – 42
—————————–
This is the rarest of the rare song of Rafi, from an unreleased film of the seventies ‘Ek Bulbula Paani Ka’, for which I do not have any details. Even HFGK is silent about it. This is the only song from the film which is available.

Mohammed Rafi – ‘अ’  से  ‘ह’ तक  (From ‘अ’ to ‘ह’) – 6
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

‘ए’
“एक एक एक, एक चाय की प्याली”

This song will definitely remind you of another very popular Rafi solo song. No prizes for guessing; the similarity of rendition of the first line is a dead giveaway. Yes, you will recognize the song immediately. Both songs are equally fast paced. however, after the first line, the similarity ends. The other song has already been identified as a Johnny Walker song, based on information provided in comments by one of our readers. My strong hunch is that even this song should be a Johnny Walker song. His name appears in the cast of actors of this film.

This song can well be the continuation of the ‘Memory Ticklers’ series. A lilting melody that was often heard on the radio when I used to regularly listen, and then later it seemed to have faded from the memories. Depend on Arvinder ji to recall and remind to dig up such gems to once again be played and listened.

I have neither watched this film ‘Khel Khilaadi Ka-1977’ nor was I familiar with any of the songs of this film. I remember the film’s name because I know it was from Arjun Hingorani the famous director who repeatedly cast Dharmendra in his films and the titles of his films mostly started with the letter ‘K’.

Today, the 16th January, 2016 is the 90th birth anniversary of rhythm and melody king O P Nayyar. Based on his interviews, the musical career and the song compositions which are well known to most of the readers of the Blog, I may say that he was an unique personality in the sphere of Hindi film music.
