Akele hain chale aao
Posted on: October 18, 2008
“Raaz” was a Rajesh Khanna movie produced in 1967, before he had become a superstar. In those days, Rafi used to be the playback singer for male lead, and that is indeed the case in this movie.
This song “akele hain chale aao” has been sung by Rafi as well as Lata. Personally, I like the Rafi version more.

I have mentioned earlier that S D Burman tended to sing one song per movie and that one song was usually played at the beginning on the movie while the credits would roll in on the screen.
In some cases, S D Burman song would be played at the end while “The End” screen was on the verge of appearing and the audience were in a hurry to leave the movie hall.

1970s saw the emergence of small budget family entertainers sans fights and violence. Amol Palekar and Vidhya Sinha were two of the leading “stars” of such movies. Two of their most memorable movies together were “Rajnigandha” and “Chhoti si baat”. These two movies can infact be treated as extensions of each other, that is how much these two movies had in common.

This movie “Manzil” was one of the unsuccessful movies of Amitabh Bachchan, but this one song from this movie, viz “Rimjhim gire saawan” has become the stuff of legends already. It is one of the first songs that comes to mind when one thinks of rain songs.

This fantastic song that has become a memorable song indelibly etched on the psyches of music lovers across the generations was a magical song when it was released in 1961. This song, picturised on Dev Anand and Sadhna has remained popular ever since. Few people have much idea about the movie ( Hum dono) or about the music director (Jaidev), but the song is one which was never forgotten, so there is no question of this song being not known to any bollywood music listener.

It is a beautiful song from a 1981 movie called Dhanwaan. Rajesh Khanna was making yet another gallant attempt to regain his lost position, Rakesh Roshan was making yet another attempt to revive an almost non existent career and Reena Roy was acting in yet another sensitive role ( unlike how she began her career).

“Dil ek mandir” is one of those musical blockbusters that were common in 1950s and 60s, where almost every song would become very popular and even evergreen.
I have heard this song “ruk jaa raat thahar ja re chanda” many times, often without knowing which movie the song is from. I have never seen the movie, and I had not seen the video of the song either till recently.

The first thing that many younger people may notice in this song is that Rakesh Roshan, the father of the present day superstar Hritik Roshan ( but to me the son of music director Roshan) had ample hair on his head unlike the takla that he is these days. Rakesh Roshan was just managing to keep his nose above water as an actor those days, and this movie “Kaamchor” helped his cause a great deal.

S D Burman would typically sing a song at the beginning of the movie that would become an immortal song. “Zindagi Zindagi” also had such an opening song sung by the maestro that became immortal.
“Zindagi Zindagi” went one better. Not only did the movie open with a S D Burman classic song, the movie ended likewise too. And the song that plays at the close of the movie is just as standout as the opening song.

It is one of the immortal ghazals of Bollywood. When one of the biggest music directors of that time, Naushad, heard the ghazals of Anpadh ( other ghazal being ” hai isi mein pyar ki aabroo”), he found out who the composer was, and then phoned Madan Mohan and took an appointment with him. When Naushad met Madan Mohan, Naushad said that these two ghazals by Madan Mohan were equal to all the compositions that he ( Naushad) had ever created.
