In the earlier days of this blog, I would just discuss songs that occurred to me. With time, when we had some critical mass of songs we began to think in terms of discussing all the songs figuring in movies. At that time we relied upon our readers possessing HFGK to tell us which songs from which movies remained to be discussed.

Tum mere pass hote ho goya
Jab koi doosra nahi hota
Most of the readers of this blog may have known this she’r albeit with a minor variation in the song o mere shaah e khubaan written by Hasrat Jaipuri in ‘Love in Tokyo’ (1966). But how many of us would have known ( including me until few months back) that this original she’r was written by Momin Khan ‘Momin’, one of the prominent Urdu poets in the Mughal court during early 1800s. And what a beautiful romantic she’r!. Mirza Ghalib who was the contemporary and a close friend of Momin is reported to have offered his entire ‘Diwan e Ghalib’ for Momin’s this she’r, one among the nine she’rs in his ghazal ‘asar usko jaraa nahin hota’.

Rare Performances – Things Unique and Unexpected #2
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
One aspect of the unexpected interludes on the Hindi film screen are the occasions when one gets to see songs performed on screen by the most unexpected actors. One does always expect the lead pair or pairs and occasionally the side heroes and side heroines to be performing songs of all types on screen. Of course the main comedy players are almost always expected to be performing songs of all types on screen. If you see the name Mehmood or Johnny Walker or IS Johar or even Jagdeep in the credits, one can be almost certain the film will have some song by them. This has been true for these actors, even during their senior years – one can see Johnny Walker in ‘Shaan’ (1980) joining the group song “Yamma Yammaa. . . Ye Khoobsurat Samaa”.

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.
