Do nainon ne jaal bichhaaya

I was looking for a song written by Shailendra for posting in the blog. That is easier said than done because a large number of Shailendra songs have already been discussed and the trick is to locate a song that has not yet been discussed. This search took me into unknown territory in YT. I came across a song on YT where no details whatsoever about the lyricist was available. The fact that it is from “Sanskaar”(1952) and it was composed by Roshan and sung by Lata was the only information available. Though a few comments were there going waah waah over this rare composition, there was no mention of even the lyrics of this song. So if one was to search for this song by its lyrics, one would draw a blank since the title simply says “Lataji Sanskaar 1952 Roshan” which is not very helpful.

“Ek Thhi Reeta” (1971) is a recent movie by the standards of this blog, yet that has not prevented it from becoming an obscure movie nearly as soon as this movie was released. This movie was produced and directyed by Roop K Shorey. The movie had Vinod Mehra, Rehman, Yogiraj, I. S. Johar, Tanuja, Pompi, Mona Mullick, Manmohan Krishna, Madhu Kumar, Lolita Chatterjee, Daisy Irani, Faryal etc ion it and the movie must have sunk without a trace seeing that I had not heard of this movie during 1971 when I was a precocious kid keen to know about everything.
