This was one of the few Social films for which he gave the music. The cast included Nishi Baran, Mazhar Huq, David, Kanhaiyalal, Gulab, Baby Nirmala, Sachin Ghosh and others. Except for David, Kanhaiyalal and Gulab, I do not know anything about the lead pair or other artists.

The film was produced by Balwant Bhatt and Ram Kamlani, under the banner of Neo Lite films. Songs were written by Anjum Jaipuri and Prem Dhawan. The music was by the Melody magician Chitragupta. There were 7 songs in the film.

The title Chaalbaaz seems to be quite a favourite with filmmakers. Films with the same title were made in 1958, 69, 80, 89 and 2003. In addition there was Chaalbaaz Leader-70 and Chaalbaaz Haseena-2002 also.

As the nation is celebrating 77th Republic Day on 26th January, 2026, I have found yet another patriotic song by Mohammed Rafi sahab. I had zeroed in on another song, the sound quality was not so good. Suddenly this song came up on the feed, as a newly found song. I have checked; it is available on youtube for many years.

Another special thing is that it is a non-film song, written by Rajinder Krishan. Music directors name and the Album name is missing from the list of Rafi song as well as on the links available on youtube.

ہوا جو پیوند میں زمیں کا تو دل ہوا شاد مجھ حزیں کا
بس اب ارادہ نہیں کہیں کا کہ رہنے والا ہوں میں یہیں کا

قریب ہے یارو روز محشر چھپے گا کشتوں کا خون کیوں کر
جو چپ رہے گی زبان خنجر لہو پکارے گا آستیں کا

ہوائے مے میں ہوں محو ایسا چمن میں گھر کر جو ابر آیا
سیہ مستی میں میں یہ سمجھا جہاز ہے آب آتشیں کا

امیرؔ دیکھا جو اس کا نقشہ تو نقشہ یوسف کا دل سے اترا
کہ نقش ثانی کے آگے ہوتا فروغ کیا نقش اولیں کا

हुआ जो पैवंद मैं ज़मीं का तो दिल हुआ शाद मुझ हज़ीं का
बस अब इरादा नहीं कहीं का कि रहने वाला हूँ मैं यहीं का

क़रीब है यारो रोज़-ए-महशर छुपेगा कुश्तों का ख़ून क्यूँ-कर
जो चुप रहेगी ज़बान-ए-ख़ंजर लहू पुकारेगा आस्तीं का

हवा-ए-मय में हूँ महव ऐसा चमन में घिर कर जो अब्र आया
सियह-मस्ती में मैं ये समझा जहाज़ है आब-ए-आतशीं का

‘अमीर’ देखा जो उस का नक़्शा तो नक़्शा यूसुफ़ का दिल से उतरा
कि नक़्श-ए-सानी के आगे होता फ़रोग़ क्या नक़्श-ए-अव्वलीं का

(Ameer Minai)

The above is the complete ghazal by Ameer Minai. The famous line “Jo chup rahegi zubaan e khanjar, lahu pukaregaa aasteen ka” is partly used in the last stanza of this song posted recently. Since the famous line is the crux of the matter, and full ghazal is the complete story, so given above as food for thought.

#The Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————

This song is from a 1956 movie ‘Aastik’. I had listened to this song in the past and then forgot about it. Recently I came across an audio link of this song mentioning it as from the movie ‘Shyaam Ki Jogan’. It is then that when I looked for other links of this song. That is when I realised that this song is from the movie ‘Aastik-1956’ and not from the other movie.

This movie ‘Aastik-1956’ was directed by S.P. Kalla for ‘Rani Productions, Bombay’. It was produced by Gordhan Das Kakkad and it was passed by Censor Board on 15.05.1956. The cast of this movie has Shahu Modak, Paro, Meenakshi, B.M. Vyas, Nagpal, Anand Joshi, Praveen Pal, Lotan, Ramesh, Micky, Dinanath, M.S. Phatak, Nazi, Shanti, Mithaailal, Master Dabboo, Master Babu and others.
