Jaganmoy Mitra – that is the name behind the voice of such incredible gems as “Ye Na Bataa Sakoonga Main, Dil Ko Hai Tum Se Pyaar Kyun”, “Aankhon Mein Basaa Mann Hai Mera, Mann Mein Basaa Kaun”, “Meri Aankhen Bani Deewaani” , “Sapnon Mein Mujhko Pyaar Milaa”, and so many more non-film and film songs, that will never fail to tickle the heart and move the listener to feel the emotion behind the words. For more than seven decades, the treasures of his voice have pleased discerning listener’s of many generations. A voice that always kept to classical and semi classical consistency, and then faded away from the mainline singing for films, around the mid 50s. Yet, his popularity has not waned. Limited maybe, the treasure of his singing gems, but his name evokes a pleasant attachment, whenever his songs are played.
Remembering Jagmohan ‘Sursagar’ on the anniversary of his birth today (6th September).

Surely some strange sights we see in Hindi films. If you can recall Sheikh Mukhtar in a ladies dress (“Suno Jaana Suno Jaana”) or Dara Singh wearing a choli and lehngaa (“Patli Qamar Naazuk Umar”), you may surmise that there may not be any more stranger surprises in store.

The songs written by him were a rage in the 70s and 80s. Sample the following – “Rotey Huye Aate Hain Sab, Hansta Hua Jo Jaayegaa. . .”(‘Muqaddar Ka Sikandar’, 1978), “Maano To Main Ganga Maa Hoon, Naa Maano Te Behtaa Paani”(‘Ganga Ki Saugandh’, 1978), “O Khaike Paan Barnaaras Waala”(‘Don’,1978), “Pag Ghunghroo Baandh Meera Naachi Thi”(‘Namak Halaal’, 1982), “Jahaan Chaar Yaar Mil Jaayen” (‘Sharaabi’, 1984), “Gori Hain Kalaayi’aan, Tu La De Mujhe Hari Hari Choodiyaan” (‘Aaj Ka Arjun’, 1990). And not that the 60s was bereft of his creations. The rustic and earthy “Pipraa Ke Patwaa Sarikhe Doley Manwaa” (‘Godaan’, 1963), or velvety romanticism of “Bahaaro Thaam Lo Ab Dil, Mera Mehboob Aata Hai”(‘Namaste ji’, 1965), or the delicately sensuous “Aap Ke Haseen Rukh Pe Aaj Nayaa Noor Hai”(‘Bahaaren Phir Bhi Aayengi’, 1966), or pensive sounds of “Aaj Tumse Door Ho Kar, Aise Royaa Mera Pyaar”(‘Ek Raat’, 1967), or the fun filled song of intoxication “Bina Badraa Ke Bijuriyaa Kaise Chamke”(‘Bandhan’, 1969) – endearing gems all, spread out over a career that lasted over four decades.
The pen that crafted these timeless verses laid itself to rest with the passing away of Laal ji Pandey, better known to music lovers as Anjaan –this day sixteen years ago (03 Sep, 1997). And a befitting day to celebrate the 100th song written by him to make it on this blog.

The Voice of Mukesh #29
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –
The tapestry of the fables of love is never compete without the legendary saga of the flame and the moth – much better represented in the Urdu zubaan as Shama aur Parwaana. Somehow, the English equivalents of some of the more profound words and concepts in Hindi and Urdu, simply do not carry the same weight and substance. The English equivalents are a poor excuse to express that which is alien to that language. Shama and Parwaana are an example of such translation dilemmas. There seems to be no adequately authoritative word in the English language to convey the same sentiments in totality.

I was in school when the songs of this film hit the radio waves. The film apparently made almost no impact, for I did not register its name or other details ever. And it was only after joining Song-a-Day team, that I came to know about the details of this film, even its name. A while back I had posted one song from this film – “Ye Dil Nasheen Nazaare Karte Hain Kya Ishaare”, and that was when I searched for and found the details of this film. And it was then that I realized that three of the new favorites (referring to the time I was in school) are all from the same film ‘Pyaase Dil’ (1974). (Ah yes, Prakash ji, after reading your comment, I thought more wait is not good to get this third song in 🙂 ).
