Genius of Jaidev – 47
————————–
1978 social Film ‘Tumhare Liye’ which was produced by ‘Tilak Movies, Bombay’ and directed by Basu Chaterjee, failed at the Box office, may be due to the story of superstitious re-birth theme. It had a good cast including Ashok Kumar, Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha, Neelam Mehra, Indrani Mukherjee, Anita Guha, A K Hungal, Pinchu Kapur, Dinsh Hingu, Brahm Bharadwaj, Ratnamala, Suresh Chatwal, Vijay Hungal, Surendra Rahi, Javed, Ratna, Mumtaz, Kamal Khanna, Pamela, Jajbel, Paro, Sarita, Tina, etc. As if these stars were not enough to make a successful film, Zarina Wahab and Om Shivpuri appeared as guest artists. The songs of the film ware tuned to the lyrics of Naksh Layalpuri, by genius Jaidev, and were very popular among the lovers of ‘class’ music.

Genius of Jaidev – 46
—————————-
Produced by Tilak Movies, Bombay and directed by Basu Chaterjee, ‘ Tumhaare Liye’ was a social movie, which did not do any good at the Box-office. It had a starry star-cast of good actors, but the confused unimaginative story of re-births seems to be the real culprit for its failure. Basu Chatterjee, who directed many successful films earlier, could not lift this film, in spite of having superb music by Genius Jaidev, assisted by Shyam Rao. Beautifully worded lyrics by Naqsh Lyallpuri were also almost wasted.

Hindi, Mewaadi and Gujarati.

His Master’s Voice (HMV) in those days was producing many Devotional and Non-Film Geet-Gazals Albums. In later years the company slowly discontinued such releases, purely due to commercial reasons.

In 1970 HMV released an Album of Suman Kalyanpur viz ‘Swar Bahar’.  It had ten melodious songs, five in each category, Devotional and Geet-Gazals.  In addition to Meera Bhajan, other songs by lyricist Anjan and Yogesh were included in the Album. It was a treasure for the Music enthusiast like me and I had acquired it in the first week of its release.

I am presenting a dance song ‘ kya kya kahoon re Kanha’ from PIYA MILAN (1958). I came across this song just a couple of days ago while searching for rare songs of the 40s on Dr. Surjit Singh’s website. Listening to this song was like ‘Song to Tickle your Memory’ as Sudhir ji has called it in one of the series for his articles. I had heard this song on Vividh Bharti in my younger days but had completely forgotten about the existence of this song. Fortunately, the video clip of this song is available which revealed that this was a classical dance song.
