Regulars on the blog are aware that I am very fond of Qawwaalees from our Hindi films and I have been presenting them whenever I find an opportunity to do so. Also I try to bring Qawwaalee songs here that are lesser heard or never heard songs, whenever I came across such songs.
The Qawwaalee song under discussion is one such song. It is from the movie ‘Jawaan Mard-1966’. This movie was directed by Ishwar Lal for ‘Kedar Lakshami Productions, Bombay’. The cast of this movie has Dara Singh, Mumtaz, Madhumati, Aruna Irani, B.M. Vyas, Sapru, Gopal Sehgal, Ratnamala, Babu Raje, Tuntun, Sabina, Anwari Bai and others.

Today’s song is from the film Kismet Palat Ke Dekh-1961.
The film was a Stunt film, with the most unlikely and unusual cast. It was directed by a small-time character actor- C.S. aka Chandra Shekhar Dubey. This was the only film he ever directed and rightly so, looking at its result. The Music Director was Gunjan aka G.M.Durrani. The cast included Anup Kumar, Pritibala aka Zeb Rehman, Durga Khote, Daljit, Iftikhar, Tiwari, Majnu, Polson, Dalda, Jeevankala and others.

The film’s title, ‘Fanney Khan’ (2018) with its star cast created interest in me when the film was formally announced. Just as the name ‘Natwarlal’ is identified with a conman, ‘Fanney Khan’ is identified with a man who boasts of his high achievements but in reality, others do not consider him as such. However, in the teaser of ‘Fanney Khan’ (2018), the meaning of ‘Fanney Khan’ has been explained in the context of the film as ‘someone who is an artist, a musician, a dreamer or even a complete idiot’. My interest in the film waned on reading the adverse reviews of the film after the film got a theatrical release on August 4, 2018. After a gap of nearly six years of the film’s release, I am liking a couple of songs from this film. So, I watched the film on a video sharing platform. It is nearly six months after I watched the film, I thought of writing an article on the film covering one of the songs I liked.

This is my 1500th article on this Blog !
It’s difficult for me to believe that in a span of 148 months or 4440 days I wrote 1500 articles on one Blog alone. Articles written on other Blogs and sites are not included in this. Those are about 200. Add to it my 9 books already published (5 Solo and 4 co-authored). Over 500 film reviews and comments on this and other Blogs which are about 700 +. Being a methodical person, I have kept records of all these. Learning ABCD of work on Computers at the age of 70 years, I could do all this at this age is the Greatest Blessing of the Almighty. Thanks to Him !

Today’s song is from the ‘1965’ movie “Son of Haatimtaai’. This movie was from the genre of ‘Swapna Chitra’ which I suppose falls in the genre of “Fantasy” movies.
This movie was directed by Dharam Kumar aka Deepak Asha. The cast of this movie has Randhawa, Malika, Mumtaz, Maruti, Shery, Jilani, Nazeer Kashmiri, Roopesh Kumar, Samson, Thakur, Shashimala, Shamim, Kishori and Jani Babu, and others.

Today’s song is from a C grade Costume film Taj aur Talwar-1956. This was a Satya Rai production film and the producer was Satya Rai himself. Not only this but he had written two Lyrics in this film, including the song under discussion. Satya Rai had written five songs for yet another of his film-National Musical documentary-Jaigaan-which was shown along with ” Soldier’s Dream or Sipahi ka sapna”-1948, a film based on Subhash Chandra Bose. In that film also the Music Director was Sudipta Bhattacharya-just like in this film (Taj aur Talwar). Sudipta had given music to some other films like Ghulam, Begum,Badshah-56, Silver King-57(with Bipin-Babul) and Shan-e-Hind-1960.
