“Kabuliwala”, a movie based on Rabindranath Tagore’s moving story of the same name, was significant in many respects. The fact that Bollywood adopted stories of great writers was praiseworthy. The other fact that the story faithfully followed the story was also nice.
In fact, it was a movie that perhaps did the most to popularise this story.

I have mentioned it earlier that S D Burman tended to have one philosophical song in his movies at the start. Credits would appear on the screen accompanied by the voice of S D Burman singing a song that would set the tone for the movie. This was the case in “Guide”, as well as “Amar Prem”.
There was a movie released just after Amar Prem, which also had a song like this. Unlike the above mentioned movies, this movie “Zindagi Zindagi” was not successful. And I am very disappointed with this fact. I have heard laments that most Bollywood movies are hackneyed. But when some good off beat movies are produced, the audience do not have the maturity to appreciate them.

Impressing masses and classes both, that too without playing to the gallery must be a great quality for any music director. And S D Burman was quite an accomplished music director that way.
And what about his singing ? Different and unconventional no doubt, but what a voice ! He carved a unique niche for himself as a singer of note.

Rajesh Khanna had acted opposite many actresses right from seniors like Asha Parekh and Sharmila Tagore to his contemporaries like Hema Malini and Rekha as well as juniors like Shabana Azmi and Smita Patil. There are many Bollywood stars who have acted opposite their wives before marrying them. Rajesh Khanna did not acted against Dimple, but he did something rare. He is perhaps the only leading actor who has acted against his sister in law in a movie.

As a kid in one’s early teens, I was not much into liking a song by its “class”. I was purely a member of the “masses” in 1970s. Still, this song, which now I realise is a “classy” song, was a big favourite of mine. No idea why, perhaps it was the catchy tune that made me fall in love with this song.
Not just me, even my younger brother loved this song, but he disagreed with me about the lyrics. I tried to convince him unsuccessfully that the line was “anhoni path me kaante lakh bichaaye”, where as he was firm in his conviction that it was not “path mein kaante” but ” patle kaante”.

Boat songs, where the singer sings about maajhi(boatman) and the boat were the speciality of S D Burman as a singer and music director. But here, his son R D Burman has created music that his father must have been proud of .
And the voice of Kishore Kumar is nothing short of magical. It has been chronicled that the people present at the time of recording of this song were so much moved by Kishore Kumar’s singing that they cried. Kishore Kumar’s voice full of pain and pathos had that effect on them.

Kishore Kumar was a master of comedy songs, but he could sing sad songs equally wonderfully, as we have seen earlier. Here we see yet another quality of Kishore Kumar’s singing. He could sing nostalgic songs just as remarkably. Laxmikant Pyarelal are at their versatile best in this song.
The fact that this song uses a train in the lyrics as well as in the picturisation makes listening and watching this song a wonderful experience.

This song is different from the usual songs that I have so far presented in this blog. For once, it is the first female solo song in this blog. But more than that, it is different in the sense that its popularity with retrospective effect among music lovers defies explanation.
