For today’s post, I have chosen a movie who’s two namesakes are already there on the blog and thanks to their popularity they have even been yippeed already. However, this 2002 release and another namesake are perhaps waiting for me to open their account on the blog.
This film like many of the movies (phenomena particularly seen in 1930s) was inspired by a play. The director Vipul Amrutlal Shah adapted this movie from his own Gujarati play Andhalo Pato (Blindman’s Bluff). He has done these kind of adaptations later as well. I feel that its certainly a good idea to adapt movies from plays, novels, short stories etc as these often have wonderful ieas in them around which screenplays can be built. A good script will always give strength to a movie. Music no doubt is important to a movie but it can only do so much alone. I hope our filmmakers today will focus more on continuing this trend of re-using good stories rather than re-using good songs to make something else out of them!
The film tells the story of Vijay Singh Rajput (Bachchan) a hard-working but temperamental man who has spent all his life working for one bank and even achieving them international recognition. When Vijay loses his mind and goes on a violent rampage beating up another employee, he is subsequently fired. He decides to take vengeance by organising a full on heist and having the same bank robbed by three blind men as no one will suspect them. The film was quite appreciated when it released.
The detailed plot was as follows:-
Obsessive and temperamental bank manager Vijay Singh Rajput (Amitabh Bachchan) loses his job for badly beating up a bank clerk who tried to embezzle money. Angered at losing his job he plots revenge on the bank by intending to stage a heist. He employs three blind men – Vishwas (Akshay Kumar), a blind person who has the power of the sixth sense, Elias (Paresh Rawal) and Arjun (Arjun Rampal) — when, after passing by school for the blind, he understands that blind people can be trained to do things like sighted people. He blackmails and enlists the help of Neha (Sushmita Sen) who is a teacher at the school to train the trio to do the seemingly impossible heist. He chose blind people because they, as thieves, would never be suspected as noone would believe blind people can rob a bank.
The bank robbery is successful, with the jewels safely captured by the three. However, in the process of robbing the bank, Elias’s face is exposed, captured in footage and prompting citywide posters with his face. Meanwhile, Mr. Rajput anxiously tries to extort information from Vishwas and Arjun regarding the jewels and their location. Unable to answer, as they did not collect the items, they try to defer the answer by changing subjects. Ultimately, it is revealed that Elias is the one with complete knowledge of the box’s belongings. Meanwhile, tensions rise between Rajput and Neha; the latter resists the abusive nature of Rajput and his obnoxious harassing of Vishwas and Arjun. Arjun confesses his love to Neha, who reveals that she is associated in the plot only for the well-being of her younger brother, Rahul, who has been kidnapped by Rajput.
In a furious attempt, the police try to locate Elias. Elias lands up at Rajput’s place after getting drunk. Rajput tries several ways to force Elias into revealing the location of the box. Unable to generate an answer, he slams Elias, who falls on the ground and injures his eyes, causing bleeding. Even in this scenario, Rajput tries to get the information, but Vishwas and Arjun resist and claim that they will reveal the location if Elias is treated by paramedics. Rajput sends them to get Dr. Siddiqui. Vishwas senses that Elias is in danger and Arjun and Vishwas double back to the training center to save him. Rajput starts to harass Elias by tickling him to force him to reveal the answer.
In the action, Elias falls off the balcony and dies. Unable to bear the shock of the death, Neha pulls a gun on Rajput and threatens to reveal everything to the police if he does not leave her and the other two alone. Rajput notifies Neha that all these acts were done under her training, and he is spotless. Unable to bear this fact, Neha shoots herself, just as Vishwas and Arjun return after hearing loud screams.
Both men gang up on Rajput and try to attack him. Once Rajput realises that the men are ignorant about the jewels, he starts shooting them. The police arrive, and confusion ensues. Vishwas and Arjun come out and claim that Rajput is abusing them while he claims that there is a big conspiracy involving the two men, Neha and Elias. Unable to believe that blind men can ransack a bank and amidst Rajput’s impassioned defence, the police start getting suspicious. In the heat of defending himself, Rajput reveals that he had sent over Elias, thus confessing his crime.
In the end, Rajput has been locked away. Vishwas and Arjun decide to take care of Rahul and ultimately find the jewels – they were hidden in Elias’ musical instrument.
This would appear as the typical Hindi film end where the evil man ends up in jail. However, old timers may be remembering the curious case of Bandini having two endings being shot. As told in Bioscope ki Baaten on Vividh Bharti’s pitara programme long back Bimalda could not decide what end to give the movie. One option was to send Nutan’s character to hear new beau played by Dharmendra and the other was for her to go to her old love Ashok Kumar. As per announcer Kamal Sharma who hosted it as per my memory, Bimalda shot both the endings and showed it to a selected audience (perhaps the distributors??) who decided that the ending where She goes to side of the ailing Ashok Kumar would be more apt.
However in this movie’s case, the film makers had another ending in mind which was released in the overseas version! In the overseas viewers version, Rajput bribes the cop (Aditya Pancholi) and is set free, in return to get him his share and gets his manager Bhandari (Ajit Vachani) arrested. Vishwas and Arjun are sitting in a train (waiting for it to depart) and Rajput is standing on the platform with a smile on his face. He then warns them that “A dangerous game is about to begin”, after which Vishwas and Arjun both draw their guns, and the film ends.
Perhaps the film makers felt that overseas audience would better accept the corrupt angle while also leaving room for a sequel which never happened. Obviously, the alternate ending overseas version was longer in length too.
Interestingly, when the movie released, the pirated movies would often come via the Dubai route and in India, people going to cinemas and watching it at home were seeing the different endings! The movie was a big hit. I especially loved the way Sushmita Sen matched up to Amitabh Bachchan during her very effective role. Its sad that we have got to see so less of her in films. Bollywood, She hasn’t been seen since Chingaari (2006). Are you listening??
Before, I come to the chosen song itself, I must mention a very curious case of P-stats for the song. One man who “appears” as if He is yet to make his debut on the blog as far as one can see has not yet made his debut on the blog is making his debut with this song post. What’s interesting is that He’s making his debut on the blog as a singer, a composer as well as what he’s most known as – a Lyricist! Another interesting thing is that his co-composers in the song are a well known composer duo as well as a talented, now sadly deceased, solo composer. So this song for which he has written the lyrics has four composers! That’s quite rare must say!! I was surprised when I first discovered this and had to get hold of the “record” i.e. the CD to confirm the same! This gentleman has not only been a singer, composer and lyricist but also contributed to films as a dialogue writer as well as an actor!
You can see the CD for the credits here on Amazon.
I hope I have made you curious about the identity of the artist! You’ve probably heard some songs of his. He’s known for reviving Bambaiyya style songs in films like Ghulam (1998) and Satya (1998). For many years he was in demand for his Bambaiyya lyrics! His name is of course Nitin Raikwar.
How he came to write probably his biggest hit which kick started his lyricist career is a quite interesting incident. The year was 1996. Actor and filmmaker Neeraj Vora recommended that he go and meet ‘Mr Perfectionist’ Aamir Khan. Aamir was shooting on the sets of Ghulam at Sanpada in Navi Mumbai. He needed someone to write some funny shayaris for a character in his next film Sarfarosh. When Nitin reached there he found that due to some technical slag the whole unit was on standby while it was being rectified. Seeing Aamir free, Nitin went up to him and requested him to give a listen to one of the songs he had written. Aamir heard it and immediately called the director Vikram Bhatt. They both found the song unusual but nice. That song which got included in the movie was ‘Aati Kya Khandala’ which became a super duper hit (It was sung by Aamir himself with Alka Yagnik. Its not yet on the blog and I’m reserving it for a future post by me. Me. Me. Peevsie’s mom and other’s please note 😀 ). This song will probably feature in any playlist of Bambaiyya Hindi songs.
He was to follow it up with many hits. One of these is already on our blog. That is the famous Apun Bola Tu Meri Laila from Josh (2000) which has already had a post by Peevsie’s mom nearly 6 years back on 20th August here:-
In the tagging it has got miscredited to Sameer (who also wrote for the movie) and thus it became his “secret debut” on the blog (the writeup does mention him in one place!). The correctness of the credit can be easily seen on the CD here
Some of his other popular songs include Excuse Me Kya Re (from Style 2001) and Khallas from RGV’s Company (2002). He penned for many more movies being sought out for the Bambaiyya flavour. He was also called for children’s movies like Chhota Chetan (1998) and Jajantaram Mamantaram (2003).
He talked about all this in a 2017 interview with Mid Day.
To quote from it:-
Writing in tapori language was a skill that Raikwar developed after he moved to Mumbai from Pune in 1987. By then, he had already tried his hand at singing in orchestras, something his father wanted him to do since he was a successful show organiser. “But I didn’t see myself singing in orchestras all my life. I was aware of the risk and struggle involved in Bollywood, but I was adamant to make it,” he says. With little money to spend, Raikwar’s story reads like that of so many others who move to Mumbai from smaller towns to try their luck. “When a man is struggling, he spends time with people who are like him. So I would sit at chai tapris and talk to rickshawallas, drivers and daily wage labourers. Because I’m talkative and an extrovert by nature, I could strike up a conversation with just about anyone. That’s how I picked up the slang,” he says. Even when he didn’t have projects, Raikwar would write and seek feedback from his friends, some of whom were already working in the film industry as supporting actors. And it’s through their assistance that he finally met Anil Kapoor on the sets of Ladla. “I consider that the turning point in my life. Anil Kapoor felt I had potential and introduced me to directors and filmmakers,” he says. Raikwar’s first song was Teri Tirchi Nazar Main Hai Jaadoo for Anil Kapoor-starrer Loafer in 1996. But it was Aati Kya Khandala that earned him fame like no other. In fact, it helped him bag a Shah Rukh Khan film soon after. “I remember writing Apun Bola in 15 minutes after I heard the script. I wanted it to reflect Goan culture so I included words like kokum curry. You’ll also find words like ‘hoinga’ and ‘karenga’, just the way a Catholic aunty would say them,” he says.
In 2014, Raikwar had to put all work on the backburner for two years due to an illness. It began with bouts of headache, and he was later diagnosed with subdural hematoma of the brain. “The clots had to be removed through surgery. For a long time, I couldn’t work because of the illness. I’m fine now, and hope to get back to what I do best,” he says.
“I think what worked for me at that point was the novelty factor. People dig variety. For instance, we may love our vada pav, but when the burger made an entry in early 2000, we started queuing up for it. It’s the same with songs,” he says. These days, Raikwar is working on his debut album for which he has collaborated with Shrikant Ahire, one of Maharashtra’s foremost shadow dancers. He plans to release a single from it next month. The song is called Khan Sahab Apne Ladke Ko Sambhal. “I thought I’d write in a manner that people identify with. I can’t write in a flowery and larger-than-life way. It’s not me.”
For some reason, the album and song are yet to release though the 2017 interview suggested it would happen soon. No other work from him has come too as far as I can see.
Coming to the song post, It’s a very danceable song composed by our composer ‘quartet’ of Nitin Raikwar, Aadesh Shrivastav and Jatin-Lalit. Joining Nitin Raikwar sing in the movie are Aadesh Shrivastav himself and Actor/Singer Arun Bakshi who you all stalwarts probably already know about from his multiple movies. Written in his usual tapori style, the song for me at its core is quite a philosophical song asking one to not worry about our troubles and that we will one day have everything we want. The song has a nice uplifting mood to it that I love to listen when feeling a bit down sometimes. The feelings of the song somehow remind me of Manna Dey’s rendition of ‘Door Tera Gaon Ho, Thake Tere Paaon Hon Chalta Chal’ from movie Fashionable Wife (1959) which too I am fond of.
Here is the song for you all Bambaiyya Hindi lovers:-
Its picturised on Akshay Kumar, Arjun and Paresh Rawal. The song had become quite an anthem in those days just like today we have Apna Time Aayega but probably in a larger way. A view of the youtube comments of the song will prove that.
Karan Arora says, “My dad is a GM in maruti showroom now……. But 15 years ago…we had a financial crisis…He had to work as a driver under an advocate….we use to live on rent in one room of a govt. Apartment. I was 5 years old At that time.. Jab bhi main dukhi hota tha….he always use to say ” fatela jeb sil jayega…. Jo chahega mil jayega….. Tere bhi din ayenge chhote…. ” to encourage me… But us time esa lagta tha ki future hi nahi hai hamaara…but here we are… Living happily now… So I’m just sharing my story with you guys to encourage everyone who’s struggling in life right now….. Abhi main tum log ko kehta hoon “fatela jeb sil jayega… Jo chahega mil jayega…. Tere bhi din ayenge chhote”……bs rukne ka nahi…. Chalte raho…. 💙💙💙”
Saurabh Mahambrey says, “If three blind guys can sing about a better tomorrow and successful rob a bank …. You can do anything 😂😂😂”
Enceladus says, “2019 anyone 😂 this song is for eternal struggle”
Shubh Patil says, “Best way to get rid of anxiety attacks.. 2019 still here😁😁”
CRT says, “Whenever I feel down, I remember this song. And half of my tension goes away 😃”
Ansh Patil says, “Iconic song.. Amazing movie.. Specially Paresh Rawal rocks”
Shubham Hatekar says, “This song encourages me more than “Apna Time ayega”. Anyone feels same.”
I certainly feel the same. Stay motivated and keep going. You are stronger than the sum of all your troubles. Never forget that.

Keep smiling always and be ever happy all of you!
For today’s song post I have chosen a song I was in love with when the movie released. This movie had some lovely songs under the baton of ace composers Jatin-Lalit and it makes its debut on the blog with this song. The movie was directed by a favourite director of mine, Kundan Shah whose film ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro’ (1983) is a delightful watch for all avid movie lovers even today years after its release (I shudder to hear talks of it being remade. Classics should be best left untouched. ‘Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai’ (1980) was touched just last week and all critics unanimously agree it was best left untouched). The movie’s name of course is ‘Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa’ which was a 1994 release. Many big names and soon to be big names participated in this delightful movie whose main details are as given below:-
Movie: Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa (1994)
Director: Kundan Shah
Starcast: Shahrukh Khan, Suchitra Krishnamoorthi, Deepak Tijori, Rita Bhaduri, Satish Shah, Anjan Srivastav, Goga Kapoor, Tiku Talsania, Ravi Baswani, Naseeruddin Shah, Juhi Chawla
Producer: Vikram Mehrohtra
Banner: Shemaroo Video Pvt Ltd
Release Date: February 25th 1994
This is how Wikipedia describes the movie:-
‘Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa’ (lit. Sometimes yes, Sometimes no) is a 1994 Indian Hindi romantic coming-of-age comedy film directed by Kundan Shah and starring Shah Rukh Khan, Suchitra Krishnamurthy, Deepak Tijori and Naseeruddin Shah. This is one of the rare mainstream Hindi movies in which the hero plays the role of a loser. It is widely considered to be one of Shah Rukh Khan’s best performances, and he has said that it is his favourite film. He received the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Performance for his role. Produced on a budget of ₹1.4 crore, the film grossed ₹5.5 crore, equivalent to ₹84 crore (US$12 million) adjusted for inflation. At the 39th Filmfare Awards, it won the Critics Award for Best Film and the Critics Award for Best Actor for Shah Rukh Khan, who also won the Best Actor award for ‘Baazigar’ (1993) at the same ceremony.
I still remember seeing this slice of life movie in a theatre. I was now old enough to go to a theatre by myself and I made the most of the period watching many of the good movies of the period. In spite of the movie being released during exam times, my parents permitted me to watch it and I enjoyed watching it. All the actors in the movie had done really good roles. Suchitra Krishnamurthy had made her acting debut with the movie. Many critics didn’t like her acting but I felt she tried her best giving a genuineness to the performance. She didn’t appear in much movies due to her personal life decisions but I have liked the few and far between movies she did. During the pop boom, she had done a handful of albums too whose cassettes I have enjoyed in those days. ‘Dole Dole’ was a particular favourite with me. Deepak Tijori who was the other lead also did a wonderful role. He was a competent actor and I feel its sad that we have not been able to see much of him for many years. He’s been more active in the field of direction though. As it is I love movies set in Goa and have thoroughly enjoyed movies set there.
Not many may be knowing that this movie was also remade in Telugu by the name Swapnalokam (1999) starring Jagapathi Babu.
Here is the plot of the movie:-
Sunil (Shah Rukh Khan) is woken up from his dream of marrying the girl he loves, Anna (Suchitra Krishnamurthy), by Sunil’s sister (Sadiya Siddiqui). Sunil is a happy-go-lucky scamp who loves music and is not interested in studies, which bothers his father, Vinayak (Anjan Srivastav). Sunil, Anna, and Chris (Deepak Tijori) are 3 members of a 6-person music band, who are looking to make it big. Anna rejoins the group after being away for a while, which makes Chris happy too, as he too loves Anna. After Anna reenters his life, Sunil begins to try and change his ways in order to get Anna to fall in love with him.
During a performance at a friend’s wedding, Sunil realizes that Anna and Chris have some chemistry between them. Sunil is devastated, so he decides to create a rift between Anna and Chris. Sunil eventually gets caught in his own web of lies. Anna, furious with Sunil for such a betrayal, slaps him and decides to never talk to Sunil ever after. Sunil is thrown out of the band for being a miscreant. However, as luck were to have it, fortune favours Sunil who saves the band from being heckled at a local club performance by putting on a stellar show, so the entire band forgives and forgets.
Meanwhile, Anna’s father has been giving thought to getting her settled in life and decides that Chris is worthy of the honour. He makes his intentions known to approach Chris’ parents with a proposal. However, Chris’ parents have other ideas and decide Chris’ marriage to their friend’s daughter. Anna and her family are dejected.
Sunil consoles Anna during this time and the tide slowly turns in his favour. Anna’s father, having realized that Sunil will love and take care of Anna, convinces Anna to marry Sunil. Sunil is overjoyed until he realizes Anna still loves Chris. Sunil decides to reunite the two and get them married. On the wedding day, as Chris and Anna are about to exchange rings, Chris’ ring slips out of his hand and rolls out of sight. Everybody starts searching for it. Sunil spots the ring but feigns ignorance, even as his younger sister gazes at him with a heavy heart. Eventually, Chris locates the ring and the couple gets married.
Just after the wedding, Sunil is shown sitting on the sidewalk, dejected and heartbroken. By happenstance, a random girl (Juhi Chawla in a guest appearance), who is lost and is seeking directions, approaches Sunil. Sometime later, Sunil and the girl are seen walking in the moonlight and talking merrily.
Anthony and Vasco, two criminals who are a part of the story, see Sunil with the new girl and break the fourth wall, saying that Sunil will be alright. The criminals hear the police siren and immediately scamper away as the credits roll.
If you’ve not watched the movie yet, do catch this feel good movie. It had some of the best performances and the late Renu Saluja had also edited it well. I heard sometime back that Shah Rukh Khan has bought the rights of the movie. Don’t know if he’s planning to remake it but its definitely one of his best and sincere performances. The movie was a sleeper hit and made more than double (nearly 5.5 crores) on the box office in those days.
The song’s lyrics have been very thoughtfully written by Majrooh Sultanpuri sahib and sung lovingly by the flavour of those days, Kumar Sanu. The combination of Majrooh Sahib with Jatin-Lalit was one of the top combinations for me in the 1990s. Just like the song, I pray that we never wake up from the suroor of good music we all live in all the time and keep singing songs of our love for music as well as each other.

बस नग़मे तेरे प्यार के

ASAD 10th Anniversary Celebrations – 7
———————————————————————
Time has the notorious habit of sometimes standing still and at other times simply flying by. It is a really momentous occasion that our beloved blog is completing one decade! Sometimes feels like just yesterday when one ended up on the blog in search of a song. The hard work and dedication put in by Atul ji with able support by Sudhir ji and our other atulites has probably been unparalleled in music related documentation and archiving. Many long forgotten songs and artists have been granted a new audience thanks to this wonderful blog of ours. The hard work being done is really appreciable and every bit of the applause that can be given is too small compared to the single minded effort being put into making the blog even better day by day.
For a blog that started with a Song a Day promise has regularly seen many more than one posts per day. Hardly any week goes by when something really new to us doesn’t turn up here! Its an awe inspiring journey which we are all glad to be part of in our own small ways. Salutes to the captain of the ship, Atul ji for all that you have done. You’re an inspiration to all of us and your passion indeed ignites that fire in all the others as well.
Contributors from India and abroad have made it all the more richer. Things can only get better and its heartening to see the blog crossing one milestone after other. The blog is more than just a blog and indeed is part of our lives everyday! Atul ji deserves at least a Padma Shri for this humongous dedicated and continuous effort!! In spite of packed days at work and transfers now and then, this karwaan has continued. Wish it many more decades of joy and enlightenment. Thanks a lot Atul ji and all other friends for making this happen! I am blessed to have met you all and found lifelong friends in you. Praying for many more decades of happiness and togetherness!
For today’s post I have chosen a song which I adore. I discovered it when the movie was released. Though the movie didn’t get much adulation at the box office, its music was quite appreciated. The sentiment is a bit like mine for our unique blog whose parallel cannot be there. The artist who features in all the song’s credits is versatile and talented like our friends here. It’s a real pity that we have not seen him getting more opportunities in Hindi films in spite of the stellar contribution in the form of this film’s music. This artist is the composer, singer and the lyricist of this song. Quite an all rounder! Let me discuss a bit about his musical journey so far.
The artist I am talking about is called Rabbi Shergill. Rabbi was born in 1973 at Delhi. He was named as Gurpreet Singh Shergill but is popularly known by his stage name of ‘Rabbi Shergill’. His father was a Sikh preacher and his mother was a school principal who also wrote poetry in Punjabi. He has four sisters, one of whom, Gagan Gill is a Hindi poet. After completing his graduation from Delhi University, he formed a band called ‘Kaffir’ for some time. After that wrapped up, He also composed for some jingles for companies like Yamaha RX-T motorcycles and Times FM. He worked with Sony Music and Tehelka for sometime. He made his debut with the popular self-titled album Rabbi. Thanks to word of mouth its popularity soared particularly that of “Bulla Ki Jaana” written by Baba Bulle Shah whose video was shown on TV request programmes a lot. The album also had “Heer” written by the great Waris Shah and “Ishtehaar” written by the famous Punjabi poet Shiv Kumar Batalvi. The other songs of the album were written by Rabbi himself. I still remember the CD which had all the lyrics and their meaning written on it.
This CD album sparked the craze for more Punjabi folk songs, other than just bhangra. The style has been called Folk Rock or Sufi Rock thanks to the influences on his music. His songs have since been known for their emotive content and meaningful words with spiritual leaning often taking from our sufi, folk and poetic traditions. As an India Today interview by Smita Mishra sums it, “He has not only revived the poetry of brilliant poets of yesteryears, but has also contributed as a literary genius in creating lyrics that are sublime expressions of deep thought and spiritualism.” The same year, he sang a song “Laundiya Ke Pallu Mein” for the movie ‘Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part-II” but it was not noticed, while its other songs “Allah Ke Bande” (first song of Kailash Kher) and “Sajna Aa Bhi Ja” by Shibani Kashyap rising the charts. He also wrote and sang a song “Aa Yaaran” for the album ‘Let’s Enjoy’ (2004) which had music by Midival Punditz and Ashvin Mani Sharma.
In 2007, he also composed for the movie ‘Delhi Heights’, of which I’ll talk later (from which today’s song is taken). In October 2008, Shergill released his second album ‘Avengi Ja Nahin’ under the label of Yashraj Music. The album contains nine songs and deals with issues like communal violence, social responsibility and the need for “collective morality”. The song “Pagdi Sambhal Jatta” from it was well received, which talked of history and heritage. He also appeared in MTV Unplugged (India) in 2011.
He lent his voice to Yash Chopra’s 2012 romantic film ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ singing the leading number “Chhalla” composed by AR Rahman with lyrics penned by Gulzar. In March 2012, he released his third album ‘Rabbi III’. Ganga was the song whose video was released and appreciated by some. In 2013, AR Rahman sang a duet “Tu Mun Shudi” with him for his movie ‘Raanjhana’ whose lyrics were written by Irshad Kaamil.
Some of these later works have not been very popular and sadly, we are not seeing much of Rabbi Shergill since a few years. He does have a YouTube channel but its not very active (In last 3-4 years only one or two songs are released on it). In 2013, on it he had released his single “Tun Milen – The Ghost of LSD” whose chorus is adapted from the poem ‘Tur Giaa Koi Dil Ch Lae Ke Saadgi’ by the troubled Punjabi poet Late Lal Singh Dil which was also released on his own O3 Records.
In 2007, Rabbi made his debut with the movie ‘Delhii Heights’ for which he wrote the lyrics and composed the music along with singing in 3 of its 6 songs. This film was made under the banner of Sivaji Productions. Old timers will be familiar with this banner thanks to its founder and famous actor Sivaji Ganesan. It is known majorly for its Tamil films but it had produced Hindi films also. Its first Hindi film was ‘Amardeep’ in 1958 and their other movie was ‘Raakhi’ in 1962.
Sivaji Productions is now being managed by the late actor’s son Prabhu Ganesan (from his wife Kamala). Prabhu Ganesan is also a well known actor in Tamil films. He had made his debut in a supporting role in ‘Sangili’ (1982) which was a Tamil remake of movie ‘Kaalicharan’ where his father reprised the famous double role of Shatrughan Sinha. Newer audiences may be remembering Prabhu’s roles in ‘Vasool Raja MBBS’ (Tamil remake of Munna Bhai MBBS), ‘Billa’ and ‘Chandramukhi’ (which was also produced by him) among other movies. He is of course also famous for being in a live in relationship and then being married briefly to superstar actress Kushboo. His son Vikram Prabhu is also an actor in Tamil films who got critical acclaim with his debut movie ‘Kumki’ in 2012.
‘Delhii Heights’ is set in Delhi. It is written-directed by Anand Kumar for whom this was the first movie too just like Rabbi. It features Jimmy Shergill, Neha Dhupia, Om Puri, Rohit Roy, Simone Singh, Vivek Shauq and Kamini Khanna. Madhavan made a guest appearance in the movie. Screenplay-dialogue by Sanyukta Chawla, cinematography by Aatish Parmar, art by Sonal, editing by Shrikar Prasad, costumes by Hari Nakai and Varun Bahl, choreography by Remo D’Souza and stunts by Action Prakash are the other credits. The plot of the film is as follows,
Delhii Heights is a high-rise apartment building in Delhi, where Abi (Jimmy Shergill) and his wife (Neha Dhupia) live – a married couple who work for rival companies. It’s about how their professional lives affect their personal lives. In the same building, there lives Timmy Kohli (Om Puri), a fun loving Sikh, with his wife Ruby (Kamini Khanna) and two daughters, Sweety (Sakshi Gulati) and (Shaina Ahluwalia). Then there is Bobby (Rohit Roy) and his wife Saima (Simone Singh). Bobby is a compulsive flirt and his wife knows about it. How things take place and how their lives change is to be seen.
Then there is Lucky (Vivek Shauq), a cricket bookie, a hilarious character in itself. Also, there is a group of four boys living in the same complex, three of whom are identified as Mohit Sehgal, Anuj Sachdeva and Kinshuk Mahajan. They keep running after girls and pulling each other’s legs. How the lives of these residents at Delhii Heights play out is what the film is about.
The director who himself is from Delhi tried to bring out the Delhi vibe in the movie. In spite of a good cast, it could not attract enough audience and was unfortunately a financial disaster because of which its music did not get the attention it deserved. With the song chosen for today, Delhii Heights makes its debut on the blog.
The song from the film which I present today is “Tere Bin Saanu Sohneya Koi Hor Nahiyon Labna”. It’s a very sweet ballad sung, written and composed by Rabbi Shergill. With this song Rabbi makes his debut as a lyricist, singer and composer on the blog. The song is very sweet and romantic which touches your heartstrings. Portions of it make one really emotional (as we are on this momentous occasion) and the deep meaning can make one speechless. It reminds one of loves lost but still cherished. It is capable of bringing tears to eyes effortlessly giving a bitter-sweet feeling where one is overwhelmed by the love but also thankful for it. It’s a perfect ode to love that can be found in life rarely and is very soothing in a way as well. The choice of words is very apt and beautiful. Rabbi must know what love is and lucky is the one who has the kind of love described in the song.
Its written in Punjabi and thus, it becomes the first Punjabi song from a Hindi film on the blog (earlier we had three shabads/bhajans on the blog which are not from Hindi films). I thought it would be apt to also put the Gurmukhi lyrics with this post too and this makes it the first Gurmukhi lyrics to be posted on the blog. I acknowledge the help received from Surjit Singh ji of the GeetSangeet Facebook Group who helped me with some of the spellings and words. With the Devanagari lyrics, this is probably the first trilingual lyrics on the blog too.
For the help of non-native Punjabi speakers I am adding the meanings of the wonderful lyrics below with the Punjabi transliteration and translation in English,
tere bin saanu sohneya Other than you my (beautiful) love koi hor nahiyon labna I will not find anyone else jo deve rooh nu sakoon Who will give peace to my inner soul chuke jo nakhra mera Who will indulge me ve main saare ghoom ke vekheya I have gone and seen it all amreeka, roos, malaysia America, russia and malaysia na kitthe vi koi fark si There wasn’t any difference anywhere har kise di koi shart si Everyone had some conditions for me koi mangda mera si sama Some wanted my time koi honda surat te fida Some were fascinated by my face koi mangda meri si wafa Some wanted my fidelity (sincerity) na mangda koi meriyaan balaaan No one wanted my demons (ills) tere bin hor na kise mangni meriyaan balaan No one else other than you wanted my demons (ills) tere bin hor na kisekarni dhoop vich chhaan No one other than you will give me shade in the scorching sun jiven rukeya si tu zara The way you had slightly paused (stopped a bit) nahiyon balna main saari umar I cannot burn like that (inside) all my life jiven aakheya si akhaan chura The way you had said without meeting my eye “rovenga sanu yaad kar” You will cry when you remember me asi hass paye haasa ajeeb I had laughed in a strange way par tu nahi si hasseya But you had not laughed dil vich tere jo raaz si The secret which was in your heart mainu tu kyon nahi dasseya Why didn’t you tell it to me tere bin saanu ahe raaz kise ho rnahiyon dasna Other than you who can tell me that secret tere bin peed da ilaaj kis vaid kolon labna Without you which druid will find the cure for this pain of mine mileya si aj mainu I had found today tera ik patra A note of yours likheya si jis ‘te tu On which you had written sher warey (waris) shah da A couplet originally written by waris shah parh ke si osnu hanju ik duleya After reading it a teardrop fell from my eyes akhan ‘ch band si ai raaz ajj khulia It was revealed that it was hiding in my eyes all this while ki tere bin ai mere hanju kise hor nahiyo choomna That no one else other than you will kiss away my tears ki tere bin ai mere hanju mitti vich rulna That without you these teardrops of mine will only end up falling on earth and getting lost in it
The lyrics on first look seem so romantic. However, I read somewhere that Rabbi had written the song remembering his father which gives a whole new meaning to the song.
The song is primarily picturised on Jimmy Shergill and Neha Dhupia. One also gets a view of some sights of Delhi in the song as well! It’s a pity the industry hasn’t used his skills much. His songs have deep layers of meaning compared to some other prolific contributors of Hindi Cinema.

Song – Tere Bin Saanu Sohneya Koi Hor Nahiyon Labna (Delhi Heights) (2007) Singers – Rabbi Shergill, Lyrics – Rabbi Shergill, MD – Rabbi Shergill
Lyrics
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
ve main saare ghoom ke vekheya
amreeka, roos, malaysia
na kitthe vi koi farq si
har kise di koi shart si
koi mangda mera si sama
koi honda surat te fida
koi mangda meri si wafa
na mangda koi meriyaan balaan
tere bin hor na kise
mangni meriyaan balaan
tere bin hor na kise
karni dhoop vich chhan
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
jiven rukeya si tu zara
nahiyon balna main saari umar
jiven aakheya si ankhaan chura
“rovenga sanu yaad kar”
asi hass paye haasa ajeeb
par tu nahin si hasseya
dil vich tere jo raaz si
mainu tu kyon nahi dasseya
tere bin saanu ahe raaz
kise hor nahiyon dasna
tere bin peed da ilaaj
kis vaid kolon labna
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
mileya si aj mainu
tera ik patra
likheya si jis ‘te
tu sher waarey (waris) shah da
parh ke si os nuh
hanju ik duleya
akhan ‘ch band si
ai raaz ajj khulia
ki tere bin ai mere hanju
kise hor nahiyo choomna
ki tere bin ai mere hanju
mitti vich rulna
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera. . .
tere bin saanu sohneya
koi hor nahiyon labna
jo deve rooh nu sakoon
chuke jo nakhra mera

ਦਿੱਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਤੇਰੇ ਜੋ ਰਾਜ਼ ਸੀ
ਮੇਨੂੰ ਤੂੰ ਕਿਉਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਸਿਆ

ਤੇਰੇ ਬਿਨ ਪੀੜ ਦਾ ਇਲਾਜ ਕਿਸਵੈਦ ਕੋਲੋਂ ਲਭਣਾ
ਤੇਰੇ ਬਿਨ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਸੋਹਣਿਆਂ ਕੋਈ ਹੋਰ ਨਹੀਓਂ ਲਭਣਾ
ਜੋ ਦੇ ਫਿਰ ਰੂਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸਕੂਨ
