Today’s song is from the social film Parichay-1954.
Selection of an apt and fitting Title for the film, which makes a statement on the film’s content, has always been a daunting challenge to filmmakers. There are many film titles which are appropriate, but more titles are far off from the film’s content, misleading the viewers. Parichay-1954 is one such film. The film tries to glorify the sanctity of a marriage and how it should be carried on, but its title does not have any connection with this philosophy.
The film was produced by Radheshyam Jhunjhunwalla under his own banner, J.J.Films, Bombay. It was directed by an expert director- Satyen Bose. The music to the film’s 8 songs was shared by Sailesh Mukherjee and Vedpal Verma. The cast of the film was Shashikala, Abhi Bhattacharya, Pranoti Ghosh (wife of Abhi Bhattacharya in real life), Sajjan (Purohit), Zebunnisa (an actress from the silent era), Panchotia, Shakuntala, Indira Chitnis, Dhumal, Kesarbai (elder sister of actress Indira Wadkar and paternal aunt of actress Hansa Wadkar) and others. Songs were written by Keshav (5) and Akhtar Yusuf(2).

There were days in the past when I used to make sure that I covered one song from a debutant movie and another song that was the final song of the movie (in other words, the movie got YIPPEED with that song). That was part of my new year resolution of 2018. On that year I managed to stick to the resloution of one debutant movie daily upto 28 April 2018 ( with four days break on 29 January, 8 april, 20 april, 27 april). The resolution of one YIPPEED movie every day lasted till 24 April 2018 (with break of three days for YIPPEE songs-22 January, 20 April and 22 April). Following the new year resolution for nearly four months must be considered a heroic performance seeing how most new resolutions die out in less than a week. 🙂
In this year 2026, I have made rather feeble resolutions. With over 5100 movies already represented in the blog, there was not much scope left for covering one debutant movie every day. If some movies are still making debuts on the blog, it is thanks to the contributions of some enthusiastic guest contributors.

ہر ایک بات پہ کہتے ہو تم کہ تو کیا ہے
تمہیں کہو کہ یہ انداز گفتگو کیا ہے
نہ شعلہ میں یہ کرشمہ نہ برق میں یہ ادا
کوئی بتاؤ کہ وہ شوخ تند خو کیا ہے
یہ رشک ہے کہ وہ ہوتا ہے ہم سخن تم سے
وگرنہ خوف بد آموزی عدو کیا ہے
چپک رہا ہے بدن پر لہو سے پیراہن
ہمارے جیب کو اب حاجت رفو کیا ہے
جلا ہے جسم جہاں دل بھی جل گیا ہوگا
کریدتے ہو جو اب راکھ جستجو کیا ہے
رگوں میں دوڑتے پھرنے کے ہم نہیں قائل
جب آنکھ ہی سے نہ ٹپکا تو پھر لہو کیا ہے
وہ چیز جس کے لیے ہم کو ہو بہشت عزیز
سوائے بادۂ گلفام مشک بو کیا ہے
پیوں شراب اگر خم بھی دیکھ لوں دو چار
یہ شیشہ و قدح و کوزہ و سبو کیا ہے
رہی نہ طاقت گفتار اور اگر ہو بھی
تو کس امید پہ کہیے کہ آرزو کیا ہے
ہوا ہے شہہ کا مصاحب پھرے ہے اتراتا
وگرنہ شہر میں غالبؔ کی آبرو کیا ہے
हर एक बात पे कहते हो तुम कि तू क्या है
तुम्हीं कहो कि ये अंदाज़-ए-गुफ़्तुगू क्या है
न शो’ले में ये करिश्मा न बर्क़ में ये अदा
कोई बताओ कि वो शोख़-ए-तुंद-ख़ू क्या है
ये रश्क है कि वो होता है हम-सुख़न तुम से
वगर्ना ख़ौफ़-ए-बद-आमोज़ी-ए-अदू क्या है
चिपक रहा है बदन पर लहू से पैराहन
हमारे जैब को अब हाजत-ए-रफ़ू क्या है
जला है जिस्म जहाँ दिल भी जल गया होगा
कुरेदते हो जो अब राख जुस्तुजू क्या है
रगों में दौड़ते फिरने के हम नहीं क़ाइल
जब आँख ही से न टपका तो फिर लहू क्या है
वो चीज़ जिस के लिए हम को हो बहिश्त अज़ीज़
सिवाए बादा-ए-गुलफ़ाम-ए-मुश्क-बू क्या है
पियूँ शराब अगर ख़ुम भी देख लूँ दो-चार
ये शीशा ओ क़दह ओ कूज़ा ओ सुबू क्या है
रही न ताक़त-ए-गुफ़्तार और अगर हो भी
तो किस उमीद पे कहिए कि आरज़ू क्या है
हुआ है शह का मुसाहिब फिरे है इतराता
वगर्ना शहर में ‘ग़ालिब’ की आबरू क्या है
No need to say here that the above ghazal is the kalam of Mirza Ghalib. His takhallus is his signature in the last Shair. Like the painters sign at the bottom of the canvas. Newer trend here is the thumb impression, biometric is the new signature. Going back in time.
The trigger for the above ghazal is here in the last stanza of this song:
aakaash se taare toot padey
aankh se tapki jo meri daastaan
