The Voice of Mukesh #59

At last I have been able to locate and acquire this song that has been pending in this journey of Mukesh songs, for quite some time. This song from 1948, could not be showcased earlier. There is one version available on the YouTube, but that is just one third of the song, only about one minute of play. (I have written about this behavior of some people, who will post partial songs online, and then wait for others to get in touch with them. There is a commercial angle involved here). Any way, I have now been able to get this song from another friend and fan of Mukesh.

Yes, I return to 1948 again today. A song that has been pending, for want of being located. And now I have it. The film is ‘Chaand Sitaare’. And lo, what a gem of a song has been discovered. Every time such a thing happens, i.e. coming across an unheard and a very obscure gem, there is such a feeling of exhilaration on the discovery. And also, the reassurance that there still are many such songs waiting out there in what we call the ocean of Hindi film music, all waiting for someone to pick them up and bring up to the surface and to the attention of the listeners. Oh yes, I am sure many people with a long association with this love of Hindi film music would have heard of this and other such lost gems. But getting to it and finding out that it is now available online, gives such a sense of accomplishment.

I am sure all of us have experienced this at one time or another. It is just the words, the lyrics that simply bowl you over with their simplicity and their beauty. That is what happened when I heard this song for the first time recently. When I read the first mukhda of this song, it is half a line – “Ek Tu Ke Sar Utha Ke Chala”, well the very first impression that came to my mind was song of patriotism or a song of a soldier. But when I actually got hold of the song and heard it, my word, it turns out to be a song of romance, one of the best in the theme of ‘Chaand’ and love. As I said, the words just bowled me over, lock, stock and barrel.

Ah, another simply wonderfully soulfully rendered song by Mukesh. This song is a song of wooing and romance, with a difference. It is a love song that Lord Ram sings on screen when He encounters Sita ji in the pushp vatika (flower garden). We can depend on the poets and the story tellers to create situations in which even the Supreme Power Himself is singing songs to serenade His would be. I really wonder what He would be thinking when He would have seen this film. 🙂

As I am searching for Mukesh songs, I am finding more songs by him that are not listed in the Geet Kosh and in Mukesh Geet Kosh as songs sung by Mukesh. I am also thankful to Harish ji Raghuvanshi, for his guidance and prompt responses with new and additional information on this subject.

As we are getting close to the end of list for the Mukesh songs for 1950, the songs are increasingly becoming difficult to trace. Today’s song I have been able to locate in my own collection, and am posting it online, for the first time today. The film is an obscure one, titled ‘Raaj Mukut’. The film is a production from Mohan Pictures, Bombay and is directed by Nanubhai Vakil. The film has an impressive star cast that includes Nimmi, Veena, Jairaj, Ram Singh, Sapru, Mishra, Gulab, Ramesh Sinha, Ramesh Thakur, Jankidas, Baby Tabassum.

As more and more people are uploading rare songs online, there are few occasions when a songs surfaces whose details and sometimes even its existence is not known earlier. The Hindi Film Geet Kosh by Harmandir ji, and the Mukesh Geet Kosh by Harish Raghuvanshi ji, are the standard references that we always turn to, when we need information about Hindi films and film songs. Sometimes, these new uploads actually provide completely new details that have been missing or incorrectly documented earlier.

“Kahaani Kismat Ki” (1973) was produced and directed by Arjun Hingorani, who pioneered the use of movie titles beginning with the letter K. Unlike those who came in late (read Ekta Kapoor), he would have three word titles, and each word would begin with K. Apart from “Kahaani Kismat Ki”, his other titles read “”Kab Kyun aur Kahaan” (1970), “Khel Khilaadi Ka” (1977), “Kaattilon Ke Kaatil”(1981) and “Kaun Kare Kurbaani” (1991). Clearly the letter K was lucky for Arjun Hingorani.
