Rang le aayenge roop le aayenge

I had heard this song “rang le aayenge roop le aayenge” many times during its days in 1970s. This song was quite a popular song of its time, but all this while I was not aware about the movie this song was from. It is only now that I have come to know that the song was from a movie called “Bhanwar” (1976). This by now obscure movie was an Evershine Pictures production. It was produced by Shyam Keswani and Nandu Mirani. Bhappi Sonie was the director. The story of this song was written by Gulshan Nanda who was a very popular Hindi language pulp fiction novelist of those days.

Unknown to music lovers, some of the memorable songs of 1960s and 1970s are penned by him. For instance, Aaj madhosh huaa jaaye re (Sharmili), Apne hothon ki bansi bana le mujhe (Gambler), tan man tere rang rangoogee (Archana), Bas yehi apraadh main har baar karta hoon (Pehchaan), Aaj ki raat bahi shokh badi natkhat hai (Nayi Umar Ki Nayi Fasal), Shokhiyon mein gholaa jaaye phoolon ka shabaab (Prem Pujaari) , Likhe jo khat tujhe(Kanyadaan) etc.

Today (4 january 2013) is the birth anniversary of Nirupa Roy (4 January 1931 – 13 October 2004). To most moviewatchers, she was the eternally suffering Maa of Amitabh Bachchan and Shashi Kapoor in several movies of 1970s, but that was only part of her impressive cv. She had made her debut an a movie actress in late 1940s and she acted as a leading lady in many movies throughout 1950s and early part of 1960s before easing into the roles of Bhabhi and later maa from late 1960s onwards. I find it curious to realise now that she at the age of 44, played the mother of Amitabh Bachchan (then aged 34) and Shashi Kapoor (then aged 38) in 1975 in Deewaar.
