“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 was a star and his grandson Hrithik Roshan is a star, but Rakesh Roshan, the father of Hrithik Roshan, was at best a middling actor, who somehow managed to make both ends meet. His career was floundering most of the time, and some timely hits would often revive his sagging fortunes.

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.

Though this song is from a movie of 1970s, I had not heard this song before. This song is from “Bhala Maanus” (1979) and it had Randhir Kapoor and his would be sister in law Neetu Singh in lead roles. Kapoor Khaandaan men are known for figuring in this kind of casting. Here randhir Kapoor was at least acting opposite his (would be) sister in law, his uncles (Shammi Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor) in too acted opposite Babita (Randhir Kapoor’s wife) in several movies.

I have posted two songs of contrasting moods from ‘Bandi” (1957) in the past. One was a comedy song, and the other was a poignant song. Both were sung by Kishore Kumar and picturised on himself.

“Aa gale lag jaa” (1973) was a run of the mill movie, but it caught public imagination because of this particular song. This song had two versions. The grown up version was sung by Kishore Kumar and it was picturised on Shashi Kapoor and Sharmila Tagore as a “nature song” -as it was picturised on hills. The other version of the song was a party song and it had a kid singing in addition to Kishore Kumar. Kishore Kumar once again sings for Shashi Kapoor whereas the kid Sushma Shreshtha sang for Master Tito.
