This article is written by Sudhir, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music anda regular contributor to this blog.
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.
