Waadiyaan mera daaman
Posted on: April 9, 2009
During my childhood, I got to hear lots of loudspeaker songs ( viz songs blaring out of loudspeakers) where no details of movies, lyrics and music directors were available. Of course that did not prevent one from enjoying these songs. But since these details were not known, one forgot these songs as they stopped being played on loudspeakers.

“Aadmi aur insaan” (1969) had Ravi’s music. When I looked at the list of songs that I have posted from this movie, I found that I had posted just one song, and that too a “lesser” known one. Knowing Ravi, he creates a bagful of hit songs in every movie where he is the music director, many of which have gone on to become iconic songs.

Here is a lovely 1970 style song from 1996. The movie is ” Raja Hindustani” and listening to this song almost reminds me of the movie “Asha”(1980) and its dhaba song “Jaane ham sadak ke logon se mahlo waale kyun jalte hain”.

It is a very cute, and at the same time very philosophical song. In fact, those who may have only listened to the song without watching the movie may even call it a happy-sad song.

Tumhaari nazar kyun khafaa ho gayi
Posted on: April 4, 2009
This song is from “Do Kaliyaan” though I was not aware of this fact when I used to listen to this popular song on loudspeakers during my younger days. Needless to say, I was not aware who were the actors on whom this song was picturised.

Apart from mainstream movies, which meant “action” movies in 1970s, there were social/family movies as well in those days. One major maker of such movies was Rajshree productions. In addition, there were a few south Indian producers of such social/ family movies as well.

Most of the time, I do not remember more than the first one or two lines of a song, and therefore my appreciation of such songs is not all that indepth.

Ae Kaatib e Taqdeer

I have listened to this song quite a few times on Radio Ceylon’s a few minutes before 8 AM, but I must admit that I never paid any attention to the lyrics of this ( or any other ) K L Saigal song.

The movie “Call Girl”‘ (1974) is all but forgotten now, and even the music directors Sapan Jagmohan failed to make it big, but one song from this movie “ulfat me zamaane ki har rasm ko thukraao” became reasonably popular.
