Here is a Rafi-Lata duet from the film Phandebaaz (1978). The music director is R. D. Burman and lyricist is Anand Bakshi. The film was a comedy, which I have seen on T.V. long back. Only thing i could remember is the song ‘Abhi barah nahin baje hain’. The film stars Dharmendra and Moushmi Chatterjee as hero and heroine along with Prem chopra, Helen, Bindu, Ranjeet as the gang of villians. One song of the film is posted in the blog Abhi gyaarah nahin baje hain . This should be the second song.

“Haathi Mere Saathi” (1971) was the most memorable movie of its time as far as kids of that era were concerned. The theme song from the movie viz. Chal chal chal mere saathi was easily the most popular song from the movie as far as kids were concerned. The other song from the movie, viz. Duniya mein rehna hai to kaam karo pyaare came next. Other songs from the movie were non kid songs and were “less” popular as far as kids were concerned.

Remembering RD Burman on his 74th birth anniversary today.

RD Burman, the prince of the music composers in the 1970s and 80s, his music is considered to be the most significant factor behind the exceptional success of Asha Bhosle and Kishore Kumar in those decades. Starting his career with ‘Chhote Nawaab’ (1961), he has no other film to his credit as a music director till 1965, when he scored the music for ‘Bhoot Bangla’ and ‘Teesra Kaun’. But the phenomenal launch to his career would be in 1966, when he scored the songs for Nasir Hussain’s ‘Teesri Manzil’ – there was no looking back after that. If we take 1965 as the true starting point in his career, then from that year to 1994, when he passed away, he had scored music for more than 330 films. In an active career of three decades, that makes for an average of more than 10 films in a year, which is an extraordinary pace for a single person.

This is a very melodious song from film JHANJAR-1953.

1953 was an year when not only C Ramchandra was on Top, but also he was in the Seventh Heaven, due to his friendship with Lata. This was a period when Lata was fully involved in CR’s songs and persona. Leaving aside their personal matters, we will talk only of their music.

Lata Mangeshkar has sung for almost all the top music directors of the golden era of Hindi film music, the major exception being O P Nayyar. She has sung many popular and melodious songs for music directors like Anil Biswas, Naushad, C Ramchandra, Husnlal-Bhagatram, S D Burman, Roshan, Madan Mohan, Shankar-Jaikishan, Hemant Kumar, Salil Chaudhary etc. But her most talked about collaborations even today are that with C Ramchandra and Madan Mohan. And rightly so as there was something special about her songs under their batons. While her songs with C Ramchandra were mostly reflected the romance with ‘feel good’ factor, with Madan Mohan they were mostly associated with ‘heart felt’ pensive mood genre.
