I had thought that Rafi-Lata duets were all posted in the blog. I have looked in the list some years back, trying to find a duet of these two for the Rafi series. Among the old songs of 50’s and 60’s there were none to be found. Only one film in the 60s had a song, which was a mythological movie and the song audio video was very bad. Even then I had saved it but eventually posted that group song from “Kranti” and that was that.

Then out of the blue I saw a duet posted by Sadanand Kamath Sir. Then I realised, that I may not have gone through the whole list, and left the job halfway, losing hope. For once, I gave up too soon.

This is a role reversal to “Abhi na jaao chhod ke, ke dil abhi bhara Nahin”. Here Hema Malini is trying to stop Dharmendra from going to his job. She is calling him ‘Raja” and asking him not to leave her alone, take leave from work, or better to leave the job if he is not getting holiday. The filmy or flimsy situation, Lata Mangeshkar’s playback, Hema Malini looking resplendent in a red jacket/suit, begging. Dharmendra on his part is just trying to get away on whatever transport he can find and enjoying all the attention. All that bhav is good for the hero anyway. Songs like “haay haay yeh majboori”, “Na ja mere hamdam”, “bataa doon kya laana” and others convey the similar emotion in different ways.

‘Barkha Bahaar’ (1973) was produced by Amar Kumar and his brother, Prahlad Kumar and was directed by Amar Kumar. The cast included Navin Nischol, Rekha, Kamran, Dulari, Murad, Hiralal, Mubarak etc. The film was based on ‘Resurrection’ (1899), the last novel written by Leo Tolstoy. Amar Kumar has directed some good films such as ‘Garam Coat’ (1955), ‘Ab Dilli Door Naheen’ (1957), ‘Rangoli’ (1962), ‘Mere Sanam’ (1965), ‘Mere Hamdam Mere Dost’ (1968), ‘Pyaasi Shaam’ (1969) etc.

I was not aware of this film until recently. The information about the film is sketchy. I came across an advertisement of the film announcing the release of the film in 1971. However, the film was certified on October 25. 1973 and was released thereafter. This indicates that the film may have gone on the floor some time in 1970, most probably after the box office success of ‘Saawan Bhaadon’ (1970) in which both Navin Nischol and Rekha made their debut.

Today’s song is from an inspirational film Shri Chaitanya Maha Prabhu-1953.

The film was made by Prakash Pictures, which started as makers of C grade action and stunt films, but ended as makers of top class Religious, Mythological and Social films of merit.

This film was directed by one of the owners – Vijay Bhatt. Music was by R.C.Boral. He was probably invited because the Main character belonged to Bengal. Perhaps it was expected to create a musical semblance to the atmosphere in the film suitable for the story. The cast of the film included Bharat bhushan, Ameeta, Durga Khote, Sulochana Chaterjee, B.M.Vyas, Madan Puri, Umakant, Pinakin Shah, Raaj Kumar and a long list of smaller actors.

This song post is the 1000th article contributed by him in the blog.

‘Chaahat’ (1971) was produced by G M Roshan and was directed by Moni Bhattacharjee. The cast included Mala Sinha, Biswajeet, Jeetendra, Mumtaz, Achala Sachdev, Asit Sen, Sundar, Mridula, Madhumati, Rupesh Kumar, Jhilani, Jayshree T etc. This was the only black and white film in the entire career of Jeetendra and by this, I presume that this film may have taken long time to complete.

It is a surprise as to why Jeetendra signed this black and white film when he started his career as a lead actor in a colour film, ‘Geet Gaaya Pathharon Ne’ (1964). I had recently read two interviews – one by Jeetendra and another by Mumtaz which give me an indication that Jeetendra may have signed the film, ‘Chaahat’ (1971) before the release of his debutant film, ‘Geet Gaaya Pathharon Ne’ (1964).
