I had a diary in 1970s, where I noted down the lyrics of songs that I liked those days. I still have that diary with me, and it is interesting to look at the list of songs that I liked those days.

“Teen Deviyaan” (1965) was for some reason a blindspot for me, and I was not much clued in to its songs. Now I am finding out that quite a few songs, which I enjoyed listening to without knowing about their details were actually from this movie.

Roshan made his debut at nearly the same time as most legendary singers (Rafi, Mukesh, Kishore Kumar etc). But is is interesting to note that Roshan used Kishore Kumar’s voice only 8 times, all all these songs were in 1952 and 1953.

I have mentioned in the past that Salil Chaudhary’s music was about quality rather than quantity. Just about every song that he created was a labour of love. He spent lots of time getting inspiration for his tunes. When he was in search of inspiration for new tunes, he would go to his kitchen a cook a delicacy (Illish fish, perhaps ?) and he would come up with his tunes.

When I look at the star cast of “Bandi” (1957), I notice that it had all the Ganguly brothers viz Ashok Kumar, Anoop Kumar and Kishore Kumar in it and the three leading ladies in this movies were Bina Rai, Shyama and Nanda.

Kishore Kumar as hero and Pran as villain was a recipe for great fun throughout the movie. And “Jaalsaaz” (1959) was one such movie.
