There are many songs that I describe as “chaayageet” songs. “Chaayageet” songs by my definition are those which are best listened to at night, that too alone. Words like “raat” and “tanhaayi” tend to indicate that the song is a “chaayageet” song.

It is difficult to believe it, but this song is exactly 50 years old by now. One cannot make it out by listening to the voice of Lata or watching the picturisation, though.

Old Bollywood movies had party scenes, where there would be a good gathering, and one of the main characters ( hero or heroine,either alone, or together) would sing a song.

“Sant Gyaneshwar” was a C grade small budget Bollywood, the likes of which routinely go into oblivion unnoticed. But the music of this movie elevated the movie so much that one of its songs went on to become a bhajan, as well a prayer in schools, homes, etc.

“Oonche log” (1965), not to be confused with “Oonche log” (1985) was an interesting movie which had no role for females. The supposed leading lady of the movie hardly had any role or dialogues in the movie. I cannot understand the reason behind such misogyny on the part of the makers of this movie.

This movie “Mahbooba” had a story of reincarnation and a haunting haveli. The music of R D Burman created just the right atmosphere for this movie in songs after songs.

I had never heard this song. When I listened to it for the first time yesterday, I almost felt like I was listening to a haunting song from “Mera Saaya” or “Woh Kaun Thi”. This song is indeed a Lata-Madan Mohan masterclass, but it is not from the aforementioned movies. This song is from a movie called “Rishte Naate” and as it happened so often in movies with Madan Mohan as the music director, this movie failed at the box office.
