I have discussed as many as six songs of “Shama Parwaana” (1954) in these pages. But there are still more songs from this movie that are yet to be covered.

Dukh bhare din beete re bhaiyya

I always thought that the song “dukh bhare din beete re bhaiyya” from “Mother India” (1957) was a brief song, almost an afterthought. I do not know how I came to believe that. Perhaps I may have watched a brief portion of this song when I watched this movie (some 25 years after the movie was released) or perhaps because I have not heard this song in detail in the past.

I never tire of saying that irrespective of the grading of the movie (A, B, C etc grade), the music of all these movies was always A grade.

It has been pointed out by my readers that the song “Ramaiyya vasta vaiyya” from “Shree 420” (1955) is missing from the blog. Not just this song, I am sure many great gems of yesteryears are missing from the blog. But I will gradually add all these songs. The fact that so many great songs are still missing from this blog despite the blog boasting of over 2600 songs is an indication that there are far too many great songs that were created during the golden era of Bollywood movie music.

I was not aware about this movie called “Poonam” (1952). Once I became aware of this movie and I began to search for songs of this movie, I found that almost all these movies were sung by Lata and they were picturised on Kamini Kaushal as dance songs.

I have recently created a page in this blog where readers can give their farmaishes for songs. The first farmaish sender is none other than Raja, who was also the first commentor of this blog in distant past (well just under two years ago).
