Saathi re gham nahin karna

Posted by: on: January 21, 2013


This article is written by nahm, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music and a regular contributor to this blog.

Strange are the ways of humans. It has its own mechanism of triggering some memory. I was listening to some songs which have no connection, with the one under discussion, then I thought of some other song from the film ‘Krodhi’ that led me to ‘ na fankaar tujh sa tere baad aaya…. Mohammed Rafi tu bahot yaad aaya ‘ (Another ‘Krodhi’) and some how from here I remembered the words and tune of this song, ‘saathhi re gham nahin karnaa ‘ Sounded like a Madan Mohan tune (unused song in the film ‘ Parwana ‘ – jis din se main ne tum ko dekhaa hai).

O sun sun sun jeenewaale

Posted by: on: December 3, 2012


This article is written by Peevesie’s Mom, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music and a regular contributor to this blog.

I can not believe that one year has elapsed since the passing away of Dev Anand. It was a shocking news on that Saturday morning one year ago. My parents had come to visit me and dad is a huge fan of the Dev-Dilip-Raj triumvirate. I had heard this news in the early morning bulletin and conveyed it to my father who had just left for a sight seeing trip. And I conveyed the news as one would convey the bad news about any family member or relative the minute one hears of it. Such was the craze for this charming man that I shared with my dad. Mine was a case more of loving his movies and songs. I do not know exactly when I became aware of Dev Anand movies or songs. But it withered away after I saw his last movie “Censor” on TV (I suppose). After that I gave up keeping track of any Navketan Movie. Even my dad gave up on him. In fact my dad had given up on him in the 1980’s itself. But any way this is not meant to bring down the greatness or the charm of the man. Its just an out pouring of the heart.

Teri jeewan gaadi

Posted by: on: October 7, 2012


Kishore Kumar, who was externally a jovial and boisterous character had a sensitive side to him as well. He could sing serious and sensitive songs with the same ease with which he rendered fun songs. When it came to producing movies, Kishore Kumar has produced rip roaring comedy viz. “Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi” (1958) and “Jhumru” (1961), but many of his subsequent movies dealt with sensitive topics. These movies were far ahead of their times and the Indian masses were by and large not evolved enough to appreciate Kishore Kumar’s subsequent movies on serious topics, namely “Door Gagan Ki Chhaaon Mein”(1964), “Door Ka Raahi” (1971), “Door Waadiyon Mein” (1982).
