My first introduction to Ajay was way back when. We met at Golcha, one of the (then) premier cinema halls situated in the Daryaganj main shopping area in Delhi. This place is technically in Old Delhi (or Delhi-6, as it is recognized now by film buffs). Golcha used to be what maybe Maratha Mandir used to be in Bombay. People would visit simply to see the place.

After coming to Mumbai, it took him almost 2 decades to direct his first film. But it was not that he had run away from his village to Mumbai to make a career in films. It was, what he called the ‘torturous nature’ of his uncle which drove him to Mumbai where he was prepared to grab any work including domestic servant and waiter for sustenance.

Hindi film audience may be acquainted with Pearl Padamsee (1931 – 24/04/2000) for her good performances in Basu Chatterjee’s films, ‘Khatta Meetha’ (1977) and ‘Baaton Baaton Mein’ (1979). She was also seen in Shyam Benegal’s ‘Junoon’. But more than an actor in Hindi films, she was an eminent theatre personality who, in colloboration with Alyque Padamsee, propped up a vibrant English theatre in Mumbai for over 4 decades.

The song being discussed in this article is from the movie ‘Golden Eyes-1968’. It was a movie belonging to the genre of ‘spy thriller’.

I was under the impression that ‘jasoosee’ movie is a ‘detective’ movie. ‘Detective’ and ‘spy’ appear synonymous, but now I have learnt that there is a difference in their purpose and ‘modus operandi’.:) I think ‘spying’ is more correct word here. 🙂 I had always liked to watch movies of this genre. During my childhood days I used to read and like the detective stories of ‘Inspector Dhananjay’ written by Baburao Arnalkar very much. (Interested readers can read more about him in this article written by our respected In-house Encyclopedia Shri Arunkumar ji on the blog.

(Debutant Movie – Bedard-1982 – Lyricist – Naqsh Lyallpuri-1)
———————————————————

Today’s song is a gem of song which remained a lesser heard and lesser known song, which might be because it is from a movie few people are aware of. The title of the film is ‘Bedard’ which seems to be an obscure movie of its time. I like this song very much for its poetic value and the overall composition. it is sung by Bhupinder Singh and the song is composed by Kanti Kiran.

Hardly any information is available about the music composer Kanti Kiran, except that he had also composed music for the Hindi movie ‘Jhoom Uthhaa Aakaash-1973’. I had shared a few songs from this movie earlier here on the blog and liked them too.
