The Voice of Mukesh #49
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
‘Hanste Aansoo’ is a film from 1950 that has some wonderful songs by Mukesh. The film has a total of eleven songs, out of which five carry the voice of Mukesh. One song is solo, three are duets with different singers, and one is a group song which is rendered like a qawwaali. Of these, two songs viz., the Mukesh solo – “Qismat Mein Yehi Likha Thaa” and his duet with Rajkumari –“Maine Sapna Jo Dekha Hai Raat” are already posted here. I present today the third Mukesh song from this film, the qawwaali in which Mukesh is accompanied by the voices of Shamshad Begum and Mohammed Rafi.

There were a number of Urdu poets during the golden era of Hindi film music that also ran in the contest of attaining the prime slots as lyricists in Hindi films. By early 60s, most of them had either disappeared from the scene or they were marginalised. A few of them had migrated to Pakistan to try their luck there. The names of some of such lyricists who come to my mind are Nakshab, Anjum Philibiti, Zia Sarhadi, Behzad Lucknowi, Aziz Kashmiri, Shewan Rizvi, Noor Lucknowi, Khumar Barabankvi etc. Some of them were also script/screenplay writers at one time or the other.

Wow, what a song this one is. I am hearing it for the first time, and it has just taken over my heart and mind. The composition seems to have an earthy simplicity that is just so endearing.
