This song is from circa 1970s, picturised on Sanjeev Kumar and Sharmila Tagore on a hill station. Do you say “mausam” ? Think again.

This song is from a movie that was released one year prior to “mausam”. Lata Mangeshkar is indeed the female singer, but the male singer here is Kishore Kumar, and the music director is R D Burman. For the record, R D Burman could do no wrong in those days. But the same could not be said about the makers of the movies in which he gave music.

Boat songs, where the singer sings about maajhi(boatman) and the boat were the speciality of S D Burman as a singer and music director. But here, his son R D Burman has created music that his father must have been proud of .

And the voice of Kishore Kumar is nothing short of magical. It has been chronicled that the people present at the time of recording of this song were so much moved by Kishore Kumar’s singing that they cried. Kishore Kumar’s voice full of pain and pathos had that effect on them.

Kishore Kumar has sung some awesome sad songs, which are very well known. These days,I have been unearthing some forgotten gems of Kishore Kumar. Surprisingly, these forgotten songs are not all that old. These songs were recorded in 1980s. The fact that the movies to which these songs belonged failed miserably, may have been one of the reasons why these songs failed to become as popular as they should have.

1980s had seen steady deterioration in the quality of Bollywood movie music, but every once in a while one could still come across some beautiful songs.

Here is one such song. The movie sank almost without trace, but this song has remained in memory. A beautifully sung song by Kishore Kumar for that ageing superstar Rajesh Khanna. Such songs were almost becoming anachronism in those days, and I do not think this song became too popular. But as far as discerning listeners are concerned, it will count among the best songs of Kishore Kumar.

It was Music director S D Burman who gave Kishore Kumar the chance of singing for the then matinee idol Dev Anand starting from Baazi (1951), and how well Kishore Kumar responded to the opportunity.
He did a good job, and that enabled him to get a foothold on the industry as a playback singer, singing for Dev Anand, the then heart throb of millions.

Before “Chitthi aayi hai” became the most popular “Chitthi” song, it was this song that was regarded as the last word among “Chitthi” songs. The present generation may not have heard of this song. Even people of my generation may have forgotten it, but I accidentally stumbled upon this song again. Wow, what a song it was ! I am sure people who have heard this song, as well as those who have not, will love to listen to this song.

This was one song that I found extremely romantic on its day. The lyrics say it all, and say it directly, no beating about the bush. And as a kid not even in my teens, I certainly loved such direct approach.

It was supposed to be a timepass song, but I like this song even today. This song shows that even such songs which are not aiming for immortality could become memorable if they are carefully crafted. Those were the days when Rajesh Khanna was on his ascendancy, and whatever he touched, turned to gold, and this movie “Aan Milo Sajna” was no exception.

The lyrics would really move you, in case you get the context of the song. And one need not know the story line to get the context. Just look at the video. The actors Rajesh Khanna and Rekha, as well as the singers Kishore and Lata make the context so clear that I need not fill in the background details. Very powerful emotions have been penned in very simple language by Gulshan Bawra. It was one of the last hits of R D Burman before the trend of chaalu songs lashed Bollywood like a thunderstorm.

It is a movie that has long been forgotten , but this movie was lit up by this one awesome comedy song sung and performed on the screen by the one and only Kishore Kumar. It is a tremendous comedy song written by that lesser known lyricist Qamar Jalalabadi and composed so well by Kalyanji Anandji. Kishore Kumar has sung and acted with characteristic exuberance in this song.

It is my privilege to present this hidden gem that deserves to be ranked as one of the unforgettable comedy songs from Kishore Kumar. Kishore Kumar, the genius is at his best here while singing as well as acting. This song, though largely forgotten now was ranked 4th in 1971 Binaca geetmala finals. It was that popular in its days.

This was a song from a run of the mill movie starring Shashi Kapoor and Mumtaz. But before one knew, this song caught the imagination of the whole nation and the subcontinent.

Though this is supposed to be a light hearted wedding song, it has become much more than that. With suitable modification, it is used by people in the subcontinent for many occasions.
