“Jeena Yahaan” (1979) was produced by N P Ali and directed by Basu Chatterjee for Jamu Productions. The movie had Shekhar Kapoor, Shabana Azmi, Amol Palekar, Zarina Wahab, Dina Pathak, Kiran Vairale, Vidya Sinha, Devendra Khandelwal, Arvind Deshpande etc. in it. This movie, a low budget “art” movie was based on a short story written by a well-known Hindi writer, Mannu Bhandari.
Sadanand Kamath jee had given the story of this movie while covering the previous song from the movie. Here is the story :
Shekhar (Shekhar Kapoor) and Lekha (Shabana Azmi) are from small towns who had made Mumbai their work place. Both are in love with each other and wants to get married. But their families are against this marriage because both belong to different castes. One day, both of them get married under Special Marriage Act, without the knowledge of their respective parents and start living in a small rented tenement. In the evening they spend time with their theatre friends with Sushma (Zarina Wahab) and Dinesh (Amol Palekar) being part of their friend circle, among others.
Sushma and Dinesh love each other but Sushma’s father is against this marriage. The real cause for the opposition to the marriage is that Sushma is the only bread-winner for the family, her father being unemployed for months. Both of them are encouraged by Shekhar and Lekha to get registered marriage which they follow and a date is decided for the registered marriage. In the group, there is Sipra (Vidya Sinha) who has lost her husband at a very young age with a small kid to look after. Lekha encourages her to start a play school for the small children and arranges the students and a place to start the play school. She is helped by her theater friends. (I think, the characters of Sushma, Dinesh and Sipra have been introduced just to jextapose the problems which have been faced by Shekhar and Lekha).
In all these efforts and also due to change of climate from town to Mumbai, Lekha is not keeping good health. Shekhar advises her to visit his parent’s house in a small town for few days for a change which she reluctantly agrees. Earlier, she had visited the place with Shekhar after the marriage for a very short stay. This time, Lekha stays for a longer period and during the initial period, she is quite happy with open sky, greenery all around and more importantly, the easy life away from the hustle bustle of Mumbai.
Within a few days of her stay, Lekha realises that all is not well in the house. The house has been divided into two parts with one part being occupied by Shekhar’s uncle and his family. Shekhar’s house is run by his mother (Dina Pathak) and Lekha’s mother-in-law (here after I will call her as ‘matriarch’) who is the final decision-maker in the house. Her father-in-law (Arvind Deshpande) has no say in the running of the house.
Shekhar’s younger brother, Shanker who is studying for BA wants to change his spectacles as his number has changed and he is getting head-ache. But his mother is not prepared to spend money for a new spectacles. On the other hand, she is prepared to spend money for some rituals to be conducted by a swami. Lekha tries to convince the matriarch by saying that Shankar’s study will be affected but it is of no use as she thinks that Shanker wanted to change the spectacle for more fashionable frame. (This shows the misplaced priorities for spending money in a rural/semi-urban setting).
In the house, the elder daughter-in-law who has become widow is looked down by the mother-in-law. Her younger brother, Diwakar (Devendra Khandelwal) occasionally visit her widow sister in the pretext of enquiring her well-being. But the real reason for this visit is to meet Gauri (Kiran Vairale), the younger sister of Shekhar. Both like each other but the matriarch is against Gauri meeting him since he happens to be the brother of her elder daughter-in-law whom she hates. With all these problems, Lekha feels suffocated even under the vast open place and a leisure life. She thinks of returning to Mumbai.
The matriarch finally decides to get Gauri married to a widower who is almost double the age of Gauri. Lekha tries to convince the matriarch that Gauri should get married to Diwakar who not only loves Gauri, but is also educated. Again, the matriarch has her own way and fix the date for Gauri’s marriage with a widower. Lekha is frustrated. She has to stop this marriage. Since Lekha has already decided to return to Mumbai, she tells both Gauri and Diwakar to run away from the town and board the same train in which she is returning to Mumbai. While Gauri agrees, Diwakar develops cold feet and politely refuse to become the part of the escape to Mumbai with Gauri. Lekha has no option but to take Gauri with her to Mumbai to stop her forcible marriage to a aged widower. In this plan, she takes into confidence, the matriarch’s sister-in-law and her elder daughter-in-law.
In Mumbai, Sushma and Dinesh have got married and are staying in Shekhar’s house while Lekha was out of Mumbai. They are happy as their parent have reconciled to the marriage. Shekhar and Lekha offer Dinesh and Sushma to continue to stay in their house until they find a house for themselves. She consoles Gauri that they will look for a suitable bridegroom for her in Mumbai. The film ends with Lekha’s dialogues as under:
‘Hum log yahin achche hain.
Ye muthi bhar aasmaan, ye chhoti si jagah
Lekin yahaan din mein hosla to hai’[We are happy here (in Mumbai).
A fistful of sky, a small room.
But here there is an encouragement to survive].
“Jeena Yahaan”(1979) had three songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.
Here are the details of the songs covered so far:-
| SNo in Blog | Song Title | Singer/s | Lyrics | Posted On | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12917 | Ham nahin dukh se ghabraayenge | Lata Mangeshkar, Yesudas | Yogesh | 12 February 2017 | Lyrics by Prakashchandra. Picturised on Zarina Wahab and Amol Palekar |
| 16072 | Ho o shaam aayi rangon mein rangi huyi | Lata Mangeshkar | Yogesh | 29 November 2020 | Post by Sadanand Kamath. Picturised on Kiran Vairaale |
Here is the third and final song from “Jeena Yahaan”(1979). This song is sung by Sabita Chaudhary, wife of music director. Yogesh is the lyricist. Music is composed by Salil Chaudhary.
The song is a background song. It is picturised in the movie twice. The first (longer) part shows Shabana Azmi travelling by train her her sasuraal while this song gets pkayed in the background. After getting down at the small roadside station, she comes out of station and finds one tonga that takes her to the destination village.
Part II of the song takes place in the village. This background song gets played while Shabana Azmi is savouring village life. Kiran Vairale (her sister in law) is also visible in the picturisation.
This is a movie that Sadanand Kamath jee enjoyed watching. I too would have enjoyed watching it when it was first released. But I think the movie story has got dated by now and there may not be too many takers for movies with such story line.
Prakashchandra is another regular who enjoyed watching this movie. He had sent the lyrics of all the songs of thgis movie. It was he who had pointed out that the picturised version of the song was longer than the audio version and it was picturised twice in the movie. The video link sent by him had become dead, but I managed to find video of this movie from where I obtained the video of this song.
This song, like the first song from the movie uses the word “Jeena Yahaan” in the lyrics. So this song , like the first song can be considered title song cum theme song of the movie.
With this song, all the three songs of “Jeena Yahaan”(1979) have been covered in the blog. The movie thus joins the list of movies that have been YIPPEED in the blog.

Today’s song is from the maiden film Hotel-1956.
The film was made by Bright Light Productions, Bombay. After the II World War, a lot of Black Money came into the film industry. People having this type of unaccounted money were on the look out for investing it clandestinely so that they could earn legitimate profit on it and a part of their money could become White. Many times it was also a way to show huge losses and escape from the Income tax levies. In addition, Film industry glamour was an added attraction. Moving and mixing with well known stars and the late night parties where wine and women were freely available were very alluring too. some of such financiers had an ambition to become Director or an actor and their ill gotten money was helpful to fulfil such desires. So, during the period of 1946 to the mid-50’s, one can find few ‘ onetime’ directors and actors in the credits of films. In the Geet kosh, one will find the column of ‘producer’ blank in many such films, as remaining anonymous was an early escape from drawing attention.
For today’s film the banner name was a new name and I have not found this name ever again in any film. The producer also remained unnamed. The film was directed by Manmohan Sabir – a half Hindu and half Muslim sounding name. But then this type of names were not uncommon, especially the Surnames. I know many Hindu people having surnames like Bakshi, Munshi, Khankhoje, Dabir, Syed etc. Most such names were titles awarded by the Muslim rulers and the subsequent generations carried them, first proudly and then by habit. In Hyderabad state, where I grew up in the Nizam’s rule, the Kayasth community was in the uppermost level in Government services and such Muslim names were pretty common among them. In my college, one Administrative officer’s name was ” Mehboob Narayan” ! In later years, such names disappeared, were hidden or discarded by changing them.
Coming back to Manmohan Sabir, he directed 10 films namely, Akash-53, Sheeshe ki deewar-54, Hotel-56, Pehli mulaqat-57, Bhagwan aur Shaitan-59, Superman ki wapsi-60, Lucky number-61, Zinda Laash-86, Waqt ka Badshah-92 and Share Bazaar-97. He also wrote 36 songs as a Lyricist in 8 films barring Pehli Mulaqat and Waqt ka Badshah from above list. He died on 26-8-2002.
Most of the Atulites and our regular readers know that I used to write details of every film I saw from the late 40’s to end 60’s in my diary. I had filled up a total of 136 diaries/exercise books with such information. After I joined in the job with Glaxo Laboratories, I was posted all over India locations and I carried 2 cartons full of diaries with me. Finally, when I settled in Bombay, these cartons got a place in one of the lofts of my flat. When they were taken down and opened finally, somewhere in 2010, many of them were unreadable due to faded ink, torn, damaged by termites and by folded pages etc. However a major trove of this treasure was useable and used by me from time to time. After ensuring that all the information is either used or recorded elsewhere, these diaries finally got their ‘Mukti’.
Film Hotel-1956 ( originally titled as Grand Hotel) was seen by me and I had noted down its story and other details in my diary. However, being damaged too much I destroyed it, but only the last part of the film story remained with me. The available part did not give me any idea as to the complete story, as it was seen 67 years ago. When I chose today’s song for posting here, I wished I had the complete story. Then I did the only sensible thing. I wrote to shri Har Mandir Sing Hamraz ji, requesting him to send me the xerox copy of the film booklet of film Hotel-1956, if he had it. As expected and as he is a very helping person, within few hours I got film’s full story from the booklet. Thank you, Sir ji, for your prompt response. This will enable our readers to know about the film in totality. I have added the last portion of the story to the film booklet story, because booklets do not give the story end of any film.
The cast of the film was Geetabali, Jairaj, Jaswant, Shammi, Ram Mohan, Jankidas, Pran and others. Here is the story……..
Jaswant got a job and a place to stay, thanks to the help of Lala Lalchand. Lala’s daughter Geeta had just completed her matriculation. Love blossomed and they got married. Next day, Jaswant got a telegram informing him that he had won Rs. 5 lakhs in the crossword contest. The news came in the newspapers also. There was a big celebration.
Pran, a crook, plans to rob Jaswant of this money. He sent his moll Kitty to lure Jaswant and steal his money. Kitty had her own plans. Within few days, Kitty is murdered and Jaswant is arrested on suspicion of her murder. Inspector Simon was appointed and he started his investigation.
Geeta was sure that Jaswant cant do such work as murder. She meets the inspector and helps him in the investigations. Finally, it is found that Pran has murdered Kitty, as he came to know that she had planned to run away with Jaswant’s money and thus cheat Pran. He is arrested.
All is well when Jaswant returns home.
For this film there were 2 MDs. One was a pair of Suresh-Talwar and the other was S.D.Batish. Out of the 7 songs only 4 songs are credited- 2 to each MD. Rest are uncredited. Many people think that Suresh-Talwar is one person. They were 2 different persons. They were supposed to be the most successful C grade MDs around. They limited their operations to Action films only, though they did do few social and religious films also. Starting with Hotel and Sair e Paristan (both 1958), they did Teerthayatra, Fashionable Wife and Sahil-1959,with D C Datt, their most famous film. Geeta Dutt’s song ‘Khatm kar de dastaan’ was included in her ‘Rare Gems’ cassette by HMV. Another landmark film was Lady of the lake-1960. The song ‘Zun zun baaje’ was included in the best of Sudha Malhotra’s list by HMV. They also gave music to Elephant Queen, Jungle Boy, Rashtraveer Shivaji, Tilismi Duniya, Tarzan and Jadugar and finally Char Chkram in 1965.
Suresh, the Gujarati partner of this pair, also gave music independently to many films. Suresh Kumar- a name not many readers can recollect. readers from Gujarat, perhaps, may remember his name as Suresh kumar Shah had given music to some Gujarati films. Sursh kumar Shah had a 4-fold career in films.
FIRST he started his Musical career with a Gujarati film-” Choodi Chandiyo”-1950 and continued to give music to 22 Gujarati films, the last being-Maaru Saasario sona ni khaan-1998.
SECONDly, he paired with other Music Directors-with Shailesh Mukherjee in Suhag Sindoor, with Talwar and Shankar Dasgupta in ‘Hotel’-1956 and only with Talwar in another 11 films, the last film being-“Char Chakram’-1965.
THIRDly, he gave music independently to 11 films, starting with-Jadui Angoothi-1964 and ending with- Waqt se Pehle-1985.
Thus he featured in 22 Gujarati films and 24 Hindi films as a Music Director.
FOURTHly, he gave music to some Marathi films also, like Gharcha Bhedi, gadbad Ghotala and kuldeepak etc.
I have learnt that these days he lives in Parle, mumbai and is connected with Marathi dramas.
(Thanks to Harish Raghuvanshi ji for the above information on Suresh kumar Shah)
Today’s song is the first song of this film, which makes its Debut on our Blog. It is sung by S.D.Batish, but is composed by the other MD, Suresh-Talwar. Enjoy….
Song- Jeewan Gaadi chalti jaaye (Hotel)(1956) Singer- S.D.Batish, Lyricist- Manmohan Sabir, MD- Suresh – Talwar
Lyrics
Jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye
jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye
bin engine bin paani
koi na jaane kahaan se aayee
aur kahaan hai jaanee
jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye
phool wahee daalee se judaa ho o o
phool wahee daalee se judaa ho
dum bhar jo muskaaye ae
aankh se tapke moti ban kar
aur aansoo kahlaaye
shaam saweraa chamak(??) andhera
aaye aur phir jaaye
beete samay ki yaad suhaanee
reh jaaye ek nishaanee
reh jaaye ek nishaanee
jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye
subah suhaanee jab beete to
aaye saanjh ki belaa aa
jeewan pag par chaltaa raahee
jaaye aaj akelaa
chaar dinon kee duniyaadaaree
chaar dinon ka melaa
soch samajh pag dharna
gar na thhokar pade na khaanee
thhokar pade na khaanee
jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye
ek se din na rahe jagat mein ae ae ae
ek se din na rahe jagat mein
rut aaye rut jaaye ae
hanstee rotee is duniya mein
phool khile murjhaaye
do-dhaaree talwaar hai duniya
raas kise na aaye
jeewan apna behta paanee
samay ki ek kahaanee
samay ki ek kahaanee
jeewan gaadi chalti jaaye

#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #
——————————————————————
Regulars on the blog are aware that, besides being music-lovers and Hindi movie buff, many of the blog members also love ‘cricket’ and ‘rail/train’, or if I am not wrong especially the ‘Indian Railways’.
Travelling by train is something which is always interesting. Most of us enjoy and love it. It brings back many memories from our childhood days too.
From 2017 to 2019 when I was in Kenya for a project, I badly missed train travel. The place where I stayed for almost nine months in Nairobi had a rail track passing behind my residential place that reminded me of our Indian trains every time a train passed by.
When I returned back to India after finishing the project I was supposed to visit close relatives residing in Maharashtra. I needed to visit other places too. I reached back in India in Dec’2019 end and before I could make plans for any visits, ‘pandemic’ arrived. The best plans of everyone came to a halt.
I had an an pportuniy to visit Mumbai in Feb’2020 when I had also booked a ticket, but due to some minor operation I had to ‘cancel’ it.
ye duniya ki rail musaafir
ye duniya ki rail musaafir
chhak chhak chalti jaaye re
pal pal aage badhhti jaaye ae
aage badhhti jaaye ae
Life moves on. The wheels of time keep ‘moving ahead’ as well.
As the effects of pandemic waned and the restrictions were lifted we had our elder daughter’s marriage in March’2022 at Vadodara. Most of our close relatives visited us and thus the long awaited get-together with relatives finally took place.
However, I keep longing to travel. Travelling became possible in April’2022 when I and my wife travelled to Nagpur to attend a marriage. I was working then and had got only two days leave so we had to return back immediately.
But this train travel after a long gap was still enjoyable though the railways had not started providing the ‘linens’ in the AC coaches till then.
saanson ki patri par bhaage
raah chale naa aadi
ismen lagey kismat ke pahiye
chal jaaye to gaadi baba
Finally I got this long vacation this year since 01st January’2023. My last contract with the employer ended on 31st Dec’2022, so I was a ‘free bird’ again.
We were already planning to travel to Nagpur and Parli Vaijnath in Maharashtra to meet in-laws, my mother at Parli, and other relatives. But in an unfortunate development my father in law had to be admitted to a Hospital in Nagpur and we had to rush there. That is how we travelled to Nagpur in Feb’2023 end. After alighting at Ajani Station (one station before Nagpur junction), we directly visited the Hospital where my father in law was admitted. After visiting him we went to their place which was our base station for the next 8/10 days.
My father in law got discharged from the hospital the next day so he was back at home and everybody was happy. My wife was happy and she took care of her father for his medicines, diet etc. till we were there.
Meanwhile I travelled to Amravati by road-with a friend from Nagpur- to meet our common friend who was with us in Kenya. This long awaited meeting was also happening after a long gap of more than three years.
Thereafter, I and my wife travelled to Chandrapur by bus to meet my maternal relatives and then back to Nagpur. This meeting also happened after a long gap of almost seven years (last we visited them when we were staying at Nagpur).
We visited some more relatives (including my cousins) staying in Nagpur and around (Koradi), and left for Parli-Vaijnath by a private travel bus. At Parli-Vaijnath we meet my mother, my younger brother and his family and stayed there for two days. From there we left by train for Shegaon via Akola.
We had to wait around half an hour at Akola station to board the next train for Shegaon. We stayed at Shegaon after visiting the holy place there and next morning started for Vadodara by train again.
So, after a fifteen days tour we arrived back at Vadodara. Meanwhile our younger daughter also travelled to Pune with her friends and she also reached arrived back at Vadodara the same day. We received her at the railway station as her train from Pune was supposed to arrive forty-five minutes after the arrival of our train.
All of us arrived back home after enjoyable journeys.
After a gap of two weeks we again travelled to Rajkot for my younger daughter’s project there and also to visit our elder daughter. After staying a Rajkot for a day we come back to Vadodara by train. Earlier we used to travel by our car to and fro, but this time we took a Volvo bus by state transport to go to Rajkot and we travelled by train in the return direction.
A trip to Kachchh was already overdue for me since 2019-20 for transfer of house to other owner there. (During this period my younger brother staying had visited us thrice including his visit for my daughter’s marriage).
This time I travelled alone by train to Gandhidham and took the ST bus for Mundra. That revived my memories of up/down travels when I was working near Adipur. This visit too was just for one day. I returned back the same day by means of a private transport service.
A pre-planned trip towards the North was already due as per schedule on April 11th.
Meanwhile, 24th March marked the third anniversary of ‘lock down in India’. Even a movie narrating the ‘lock down experiences/stories’ was released on that day, but it disappeared soon like it was never released. May be people were not interested to revisit those ‘horrifying sad stories and the struggle during the pandemic or lock down period’. This movie was also released on 24th March’2023.
While we were preparing for our next tour the news of ‘corona cases surfacing again’ had started doing the rounds.
We started our journey on 11th April for Pathankot by SVDK Exp. This was the first time that we had ‘planned’ a ‘vacation trip’ other than the visits we often took during summer vacations to visit our relatives in Maharashtra.
In this visit we were accompanied by the family of one of my friends. Examinations of their children had finished and so they wanted to travel. So they had requested us to accompany them.
This friend of mine had passed away due to cancer in 2012. He was one of my best friends whom I befriended in Kachchh. I named these three friends as my ‘3 idiots’. So this one ‘idiot’ left us too early at an young age. We were missing him a lot.
We were supposed to reach our destination i.e. Pathankot on 12th afternoon. But on the morning of 12th as we were still travelling there was a call from my brother-in-law from Nagpur that my father in law had left for his heavenly abode early morning. My wife was inconsolable and somehow we managed to calm her saying that we shall take a decision after reaching Pathankot or Dalhousie, where we had to stay. We were in a fix as we could not leave the other members i.e. my friend’s family alone.
After reaching Banikhet near Dalhousie from Pathankot we were informed that the funeral of my father in law had to be done the same day and it was not possible for us in any case to reach Nagpur to attend it. So finally we decided to go to Nagpur later for other rituals. The only consolation for us was that the we had met him in Feb-end and early March and our stay with him for a week at Nagpur, so the regret of not meeting him in recent past was not there..
We finished our trip to Dalhousie-Dharamshala-Amritsar and returned to Ahmedabad via Chandigarh on 17th.
As our tour was on many things were still happening around.
seth mahajan chor uchakke
is gaadi mein saath chaley
raat ko soye dhan loot jaaye
aur sawere haath maley
koyi bajaaye chain ki bansi
koyi neer bahaaye re
pal pal aage badhhti jaaye ae
aage badhhti jaaye ae
But the journey was on …
Ye duniyaa ki rail musaafir …
And, it always reminded us
is gaadi mein dekh naa pyaare
jaat paat ke phande ae
ek jagah par mil kar baithhe
sab bhagwaan ke bande baba
do din ka ye safar hai baba
mil jul kar kat jaaye re
***
My elder daughter arrived from Rajkot the next day and we all left for Nagpur on 19th April afternoon (by air this time). After attending all rituals there I and my wife stayed back at Nagpur while our daughters returned to Vadodara early on 22nd of April.
I with my wife travelled back by train again on 27th from Nagpur to Vadodara.
Meanwhile my younger daughter was detected with Covid-19 and she had to be self-quarantined. Now the elder daughter had to stay with her till we arrived back. The day we reach Vadodara, our elder daughter left for Rajkot.
Now there was a family function due at Rajkot on 2nd May. Only I could attend it, as my wife had to stay back with my younger daughter at home.
I travelled on 2nd morning by Volvo bus, attended the function in the afternoon, and arrived back on the same evening by train …
My younger daughter recovered fully from Covid after ten days and got fully fit.
5th May’2023 (News headline)…
“The head of the UN World Health Organization (WHO) has declared “with great hope” an end to COVID-19 as a public health emergency, stressing that it does not mean the disease is no longer a global threat.”
A cycle completed …
The song being covered in this post is from the movie “Sitaaraa-1955”. (this song was pending since ‘2018’).
It was directed by S.K. Ojha for ‘All India Pictures, Bombay’. P. N. Arora was the producer of this movie.

Aage badhhti jaaye ae
Saanson ki patri par bhaage
Raah chale naa aadi
Ismen lagey kismat ke pahiye
Chal jaaye to gaadi baba
Chal jaaye to gaadi ee
Nagar nagar mein thheharti rukti
Nagar nagar mein thheharti rukti
Manzil tak pahunchaaye re
Pal pal aage badhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye
Is gaadi mein dekh naa pyaare
Jaat paat ke phande ae
Jaat paat ke phande ae
Ek jagah par mil kar baithe
Sab bhagwan ke bande baba
Sab bhagwan ke bande ae
Do din ka ye safar hai baba
Do din ka ye safar hai baba
Mil jul kar kat jaaye re
Pal pal aage badhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye
Seth mahajan chor uchakke
Is gaadi mein saath chalen
Raat ko soye dhan loot jaaye
Aur sawere haath malen
Aur sawere haath malen
Koyi bajaaye chain ki bansi
Koyi bajaaye chain ki bansi
Koyi neer bahaaye re
Pal pal aage badhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye
Ye duniya ki rail musaafir
Ye duniya ki rail musaafir
Chhak chhak chalti jaaye re
Pal pal aage badhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye ae
Aage badhhti jaaye

ये दुनिया की रेल मुसाफिर
ये दुनिया की रेल मुसाफिर
छक छक चलती जाए रे
पल पल आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए ए
साँसों की पटरी पर भागे
राह चले ना आडी
इसमें लगे किस्मत के पहिये
चल जाए तो गाडी बाबा
चल जाए तो गाडी ई
नगर नगर में ठहरती रूकती
नगर नगर में ठहरती रूकती
मंजिल तक पहुंचाए रे
पल पल आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए
इस गाडी में देख ना प्यारे
जात पात के फंदे ए
जात पात के फंदे ए
एक जगह पर मिल कर बैठे
सब भगवान के बन्दे बाबा
सब भगवान के बन्दे ए
दो दिन का ये सफ़र है बाबा
दो दिन का ये सफ़र है बाबा
मिल जुल कर कट जाए रे
पल पल आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए
सेठ महाजन चोर उचक्के
इस गाडी में साथ चले
रात को सोये धन लूट जाए
और सवेरे हाथ मले
और सवेरे हाथ मले
कोई बजाये चैन की बंसी
कोई बजाये चैन की बंसी
कोई नीर बहाए रे
पल पल आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए ए
आगे बढती जाए
ये दुनिया की रेल मुसाफिर
ये दुनिया की रेल मुसाफिर
छक छक चलती जाए रे
पल पल आगे बढती जाए ए

आगे बढती जाए
Aisa to socha na thhaa

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
The song being presented in this post is from the ‘1983’ movie ‘Pasand Apni Apni’.
I have no recollection of having watched this movie anytime.
This movie had made its debut on the blog way back in ‘2012’ on 26.08.2012. So this movie has already completed its ‘ten-year’ run (and more than that) on the blog.
“Pasand Apni Apni” was directed by Basu Chatterjee for ‘Cine Eye’ Films. Basu Chatterjee also produced this movie and had written its screenplay and dialogues too.
The star cast of this movie included Mithoon Chakravarty, Rati Agnihotri, Utpal Dutt, Subiraj, Kumud Tripathi, Javed Khan, Manik Choudhury, Madhumita Das, Roopdarshini, Ranjana Sachdev, Manik Dutt, Subroto Mahapatra, Khoka Mukherjee, Reetu Saha, Meena Shrivastava, Gajendra, Dev Sharma, Azmat Khan, Sahgal, Kartik, Jemini Kumar, Sov Sen, Gautam Chakravarty, B.N. Bhattacharya, Bankey Vishwanath and Lakhan Singh.
This movie introduced Anjali Naidu and child artiste Atul Agnihotri.
Ashok Kumar, Jayshree T., Shibani, Dinesh Hingoo, and Asha Lata had a guest appearance in this movie.
Story of this movie was written by Teerth Chatterjee and Eric Martin. And editing of this movie was done by Kamal Saigal.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 07.10.1983.
This movie has six songs. Three songs each werewritten by Anjaan and Yogesh.
As mentioned above one song from this movie – arre wo dene waala –has been posted on the blog more than ten years ago.
Today’s song is sung by Asha Bhonsle and it is background song. It is poignant song which happens in the movie when the two lovers have developed misunderstandings I guess. Part of the song is picturised in ‘local train’ (Mumbai?).
We can see Rati Agnihotri, Mithun Chakravarty, Ashok Kumar, and others in the picturisation.
Lyrics for this song are by Anjaan and music is composed by Bappi Lahiri.
Lyrics of this song were sent by Prakashchandra.
Let us listen to the song which is a nice song. I don’t think I am familiar with the other songs of this movie so I would listen to them now. 🙂

55th birthday of A. R. Rehman
———————————————————–
A. R. Rehman – The musician of 21st century – 1
———————————————————–
Out beyond ideas of wrong doing and right doing, there is a field. I will meet you there. – Rumi
Some years ago, I received a Whatsapp forward featuring a sketch with Rumi’s character, in a 21st century setting. This requires careful description, so you all please be patient with me.
There he was, 13th century persian poet and philosopher, Jalaludding Rumi, turban and all, sitting on one end of a small primitive boat. A boat that fits in a New York apartment’s living room. Guess who is doing the honors of ‘Chappu chalauing’ at the other end of the boat? It was Chandler, of ‘Friends’ fame. Imagine a boat on the floor of a city living room, at one end Chandler is roving the boat and Rumi is sitting on the other end. The caption with it, also in 21st century English, read “When you are looking for a Roomie and misspell it!”
Ha Ha Ha Ha. If no one is laughing, I have only myself to blame for thinking of Rumi. “ham wahan hain jahan se ham ko bhi kuchh hamaari khabar nahi aati”
I have been exposed to some episodes of ‘Friends’, so identifying Chandler was the easy bit in the caricature. I could connect, the word “Roomie” to Rumi after some deliberation, but never having seen Rumi, or his picture or sketch, I was wondering who is the peasant in the boat. And what is a boat doing in the living room? It transpired that Rumi had arrived in his boat in response to the ad posted by Chandler for a roomie, as he misspelt it as Rumi. Since in Rumi’s time the preferred mode of transport was a boat, Persia is sure to have been full of rivers. Or canals, like Venice.
But I quite liked the idea of a boat in the living room. I did contemplate, on a real-life boat, the size of a two-three seater sofa, which was available for sale in a handicraft shop in Alleppy, Kerela. I could not figure out a way of transporting it to Mumbai, so had to drop the idea. I have a few embellished display size boats, but it is not the same. Now, after writing all this, I am thinking I should make another attempt at it.
At least a boat is doable, but imagine if someone is fond of trains, how will they get them in the living room. Trains are good for travelling, they take you from Point A to Point B, that is their usefulness. I have seen a train on the dining table with tracks and all, for movement of serving dishes, somewhere in a museum, probably. Now that is nice idea, if the kitchen is next of the dining section, a train can be made and for variety, a tunnel or two can added in the landscape. My imagination is running away with me.
I have finally arrived at the destination point, i. e. a train song. An iconic song for our generation of movie goers. A sufiana song written by Gulzar and composed by A. R. Rehman for Dil Se(1998). Singers are Sukhwinder Singh and Sapna Awasthi. There is a lot of trivia available here about this song. There is this page too, which states that this song and video was at 9th position in the poll for top 10 all time songs, for which people from 55 countries voted. This poll was conducted by BBC world service.
The original composition of a solo by Sukhwinder Singh titled “Thaiyya thaiya” is also part of the movie’s song track, though it was not used in the film. The song begin with the lines “Eid aayi mera yaar nayi aaya”, but it is actually based on Bulle Shah’s “Tere ishq nachaya kar thhaiya thhaiya”. The version is mostly in Punjabi, with the same tune. So, I thought maybe that should be treated as a separate song.
These films songs are among the best of A. R. Rehman, Gulzar and Lata Mangeshkar. And they will be the best of Udit Narayan & Mahalaxmi Iyer(Aye Ajnabi), Sonu Nigam & Kavita Krishnamurthy(tu hi tu satragi re), Sukhwinder Singh and Sapna Awasthi(Chhaiyya chhaiyya).
The song becomes iconic due to its picturization of a group of dancers, with Shah Rukh Khan and Malaika Arora, dancing atop a running train. It is shot in location of Ooty. This is also the best of Farah Khan’s choreography. This is among the first few outdoorsy songs I shortlisted for posting in the blog.
Gulzar sahab is talking of ‘Jannat’ and ‘Firdaus’, which means Paradise. ‘Gulposh is invisible, kaayenaat is universe, Taaveez is talisman, ‘aayat’ is sentence/verse(scholars say ‘aayat’ in the quranic context are niether sentence nor verse, it is an entirely different unit of deliverance) of Al-Quran which are in Arabic. What Gulzar sahab may mean in this line ‘mera naghma wahi mera kalma wahi’, is that ishq as a philosophy is my song, my first and last word.
wo yaar hai jo khushboo ki tarah
jis ki zubaan urdu ki tarah
The first thought the word ‘Urdu’ invokes in the minds of Urdudaan as well as non-urdudaan, is its sweetness (Shireen) and cultured-ness(muhazzib). These two things ‘shireeni’ and ‘tehzeeb’ go hand in hand and are two sides of the same coin. This literally means, the object of ishq is anything that has flagrant aura and talks speaks and sings with a sweetness. Fragrance is a thing which is also pure, clean and invisible. Sincerity and unpretentiousness, plus a sweet way of conduct and speech is:
Meri shaam raat
Meri kaayenaat
Shaam is a time of relaxation and liesure and raat is for resting. ‘Kaayenaat’ is my ‘universe of abundance’. So there goes, if the object of my ishq is, the highest ideals of sincerity and good conduct, then it will be my contentment and happiness for which sky in the limit. Is this the salvation and moksh in this life?
Saare ishq ki chhaaon chale chhainyya chhainya
Paaon jannat chale chale chal chhainyya chhainyya
And
Jin ke sar ho ishq ki chhaaon
Paaon ke neeche jannat hogi
They both mean the same, that those who live under the shade of such an ishq, heaven/paradise is theirs.
Remembering Jalaluddin Rumi and his philosophy is eventually justified by Gulzar sahab’s this master piece. Maybe the quote is the wrong one, the correct one is this:
“There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love. Only lovers can escape out of these two worlds.” – Rumi
I have been thinking for sometime now that there so many iconic songs composed by ARR, that a garland or a necklace of these gems can be made. So I have chosen myself to do this series. The first episode is this song, starting on the birthday of ARR. I have done a few posts of his songs in the blog earlier for songs of ‘lagan’ ‘zubieda’ ‘sapney’ etc. This is by far an ambitious series for me to undertake, as it is very difficult to fit theses gems in a particular form to complete a cohesive design of the necklace. I will play by the ear, and God willing try to complete this series in 2022.

Blog Day : |
4640 | Post No. : | 16300 |
The musical bandwagon may be moving slower now a days, but it is moving on nevertheless. Everyday sees at least one post in the blog. The last DOT day for the blog was on 25 december 2019 (4177th day for the blog). Since then, the blog has added at least one song every day for the last 563 days.
Today is 4640th day for the blog. On this day we achieve yet another landmark figure, viz post number 16300. In other words, we complete the 163rd century for the blog today. It works out to an average of 28.5 days for one century. So by the time our moon completes one rotation of the earth, the blog completes one century of songs. 🙂
Here I have likened the progress of the blog to moon. But in the past, I have likened the blog to a bandwagon. And on other occasions, I have likened it to a train as well. 🙂
Come to think of it, trains fascinate us nearly as much as Hindi movie songs fascinate us. Trains in fact fascinate Hindi movie makers also. And so we find trains playing important roles in many Hindi movies. Many songs in these movies take place on trains.
When I checked up, I realised that the blog has just over one hundred train songs already. We have 102 rail related songs in the blog so far.
If one thinks that all these rail related songs have been covered by me ( a Railwayman myself), you cannot be more wrong. Most regular contributors of the blog have contributed to this impressive catalog of rail songs in the blog. Just take a look at the chart here to see the contributions of rail related posts and lyrics by our regulars :-

What an impressive collection of Rail related songs by our regulars.
Some of these songs have doubled up as blog century posts as well. Here is the list of Rail songs that have been used as blog century posts :-
| Blog post number | Song | Movie (Year) | Date of posting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000 | Dhak dhak karti chali jeewan ki rail re | Dilruba(1950) | 27 september 2009 |
| 2700 | Jeewan hai ik sapnaa madhur suhaanaa sapnaa | Honeymoon (1973) | 30 july 2010 |
| 3500 | Main hoon jhum jhum jhum jhum jhumroo | Jhumru (1961) | 4 February 2011 |
| 3900 | Ye hai jeewan ki rail | Mehlon Ke Khwaab | 17 may 2011 |
| 15800 | Hamaare dil ke station pe bhi baabu kabhi aanaa | Fifty Fifty(1950) | 12 August 2020 |
I have decided to use another Rail song as this blog century song. I had a good number of Rail songs to chose from. Avinash Scrapwala, one of the bigger Railway fans among the regulars, had sent me several rail related lyrics and he keeps reminding me about them periodically. I have chosen one of those lyrics for this post.
This song is from “Naach”(1949). “Naach” (1949) was directed by Ravindra Dave for Kuldip Pictures. The movie had Shyam, Suraiya, Kuldip, Raj Mehra, Gulab, Yashodhara Katju, Sofia, Shyama, Wasti, Om Prakash etc in it.
The movie had 11 songs in it. Eight songs have been covered in the past.
This rail song from “Naach”(1949) is sung by Geeta Dutt, Lata Mangeshkar and an unknown male voice.
I take this opportunity to thank one and all for their continued support and encouragement which has kept this musical labour of love to keep rolling on and on without any stoppages. Here is hoping that we will countinue to keep arriving at many more milestones during our musical journey.
Song-Chhak chhak chali hamaari rail (Naach)(1949) Singers-Geeta Dutt, Lata Unknown male voice, Lyrics-Mulkraj Bhakri, Md-Husnlal Bhagatram

Hullo Atuldom
4th January is the 90th birth anniversary of the on-screen mother of Rajesh Khanna, Vinod Khanna, Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi Kapoor, Dharmendra, and a few heroines too. She mostly played mother to heroes, at least that is what my personal experience was, fed as I was on movies of the ’70s and ’80s.
But that is not how she began her career. Our in-house encyclopedia whom I prefer calling Guruji has written a post and also in a few of his comments to other posts on the blog that she has played comic characters and stunt roles too in addition to playing Goddesses in mythologicals after having made her debut as heroine in movies of the late ’40s and continuing to play central characters through the ’50s and early ’60s. In post of his Atulji has commented about a 44 year old Nirupa Roy (who this post is dedicated to) playing mother to a 38 year old Shashi Kapoor and 34 year old Amitabh Bachchan who incidentally played the older son.
“Laadla” (1966) had seven songs of which the blog has four songs. One of the songs posted thus far is a two part song and shows Nirupa Roy sing a lullaby to a baby in a pram who grows up to be Sudhir Kumar (of ‘Dosti’ fame). Today’s song show her on a train journey and making her son comfortable on the berth of the compartment. This must have been the first class coach of yore which used to have a lot of space and private washroom etc.; this I am deducing from all the train scenes of old time movies that I have grown up seeing. Personally I have never experienced that luxury, but that is not the matter of this post.
Today’s song has Lata Mangeshkar giving playback to Nirupa’s atma ki awaaz (voice of conscience) and the charming actress shows her distress so well. Heard this song for the first time as I wrote it out for the post and like what Rajinder Krishan has written and Laxmi-Pyare have composed.

Song-Kaun tujhko maa kahega (Laadla)(1966) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Rajinder Krishan, MD-Laxmikant Pyarelal
Lyrics
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisiki maa nahin
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisi ki maa nahin
tere dil mein maa–mta ka
ek bhi armaan nahin
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisi ki maa nahin
phool jiss daali se nikla
haq ussi daali ka hai ae ae
phool jiss daali se nikla
haq ussi daali ka hai
teri hasti tera darza
teri hasti tera darza
toh fakat maali ka hai
jhhooth ko sach kar dikhaana
iss kadar aasaan nahin
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisi ki maa nahin
tu kisi ki maa nahin
soch jiska yeh jigar hai
aaj woh roti hai kyun
soch jiska yeh jigar hai
aaj woh roti hai kyun
tu kisi ke aansuon se
tu kisi ke aansuon se
apna munh dhoti hai kyun
jo khushi chheene kisi ki
woh koi insaan nahin
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisi ki maa nahin
tere dil mein maa–mta ka
ek bhi armaan nahin
kaun tujhko maa kahega
tu kisi ki maa nahin
tu kisi ki maa nahin
maa nahin
Din pyaar ke aayenge sajaniyaa

The journey continues … with many miles to go …
‘जिस तरह सुबह के बाद शाम ढलती है, रात होती है, फिर सुबह आती है. आज का डूबा हुआ सूरज कल फिर नयी किरणें लेकर आता है, एक नयी भोर का सन्देश, नया उत्साह और नयी उमंग के साथ. उसी तरह आज जो रेल-गाडी रात को गुज़रती है वो सुबह फिर किसी स्टेशन पर आती है – सवेरे वाली गाडी बन कर’, नए जोश और नए उत्साह के साथ …
And here it arrives … our musical bandwagon …Wishing you all a very ‘Happy New Year-2021’!!!
Let us all be safe, healthy, peaceful and enjoying music wherever we are!!!
We start our journey with this lovely song which is saying ‘din pyaar ke aayenge’ and though here the expressions are of a lover for her love, the message we wish to convey is for all of us or rather for all on this globe – the mankind, the humanity, the nature, the environment, and for our ecological existence. Let the love blossoms and we all enjoy our stay here and do good for others as possible.
Trains have been part of our movies since long and there are many song sequences and scenes picturised on the trains or having trains at the back drop. It will be interesting to study those movies and how effectively trains/railways have been used in various movies. I had started to note down some movie names and looking for this subject landed me on this article here.
It was only during the ‘pandemic’ that this ‘lifeline of the nation’ was stopped, and passenger services had to be discontinued. It never happened earlier in the history of this nation not even during the ‘war’ period.
But now gradually things are coming back to normal and I wish that the ‘normal’ is restored soon in the months to come.
Let us hope that this ‘lifeline of the Nation’ is back to full swing again.
I have always loved the ‘train journeys’ since my childhood and even now I feel it very nostalgic to visit railway stations and travel by train. I wonder, if I still have these feelings that I am excited to see the trains, how the peoples who are staying in the hills and still have not travelled by train or not seen them would feel if they get this opportunity.
Let us also contribute to the safety our ‘lifeline’ and care for its assets. Let us protect it and discourage those who try to damage this national property.
Let us now enjoy this wonderful song composed by Pancham Da who have given us some gems of trains songs viz. ‘zindagi ke safar mein guzar jaate hai jo makaam’ and others. Lyrics are by Majrooh Sultanpuri and today’s song is sung by Lata Mangeshkar.
This is from the ‘1986’ movie ‘Sawere Waali Gaadi’ … ‘din pyaar ke aayenge sajaniyaa’

Blog Day : |

The year that was … “2020” … we have finally come to the end of ‘Year 2020’ which has shaken the whole world and while people are trying to come to normal, the pandemics’ ‘aftershocks’ and its ‘new improved stains’ are still threatening to harm the humanity further.
Our heart goes to those who have lost their lives, those who have struggled and those who have faced difficulties in the ‘pandemic period’.
From that point of view all of us, those who will see the morning of ‘2021,’ are fortunate and should express our gratitude to the almighty, well-wishers, family members and friends, and to all them who have been caring for each other and maintaining social discipline to help the country fight back to this calamity.
Life moves on … and for people like me and like-minded music lovers this blog has been the main sources of motivation where we visited and enjoyed music to give us that much needed ‘therapeutic’ relief to forget for some time the harsh realities of life and sometime making us philosophical to think over and give a fight back or even to do an introspection.
Here I would like to highlight one comment on the blog by our regular inspiration Shri Manohar Lal Dave ji.
Suddenly it seems ONE DAY match for SHANKAR JAIKISHAN because there was no such T20 in their time. Thanks to Avinash ji, Atul ji…With SJ nearing 1K mark, the trio of lyricist-singer-composer in a song will be achieved and the BLOG will be complete in a sense in this gloomy year 2020. It will be an achievement for SJ to touch 1k mark first which they justifiably deserve like Sunil Gavaskar touching 10K mark in test.
I do not know how many of us have read this above comment and how everybody of us had interpreted it. But, for me it is a very big comment and while it also shares ‘feelings’ of many like me, it’s also the love for this blog and its magic that we are looking for our daily motivation here.
Regulars on the blog are aware of my (our) love for the railways 😊 When I came back from Kenya last year I had so many plans to visit my Mother (in Maharashtra) and other relatives and gang-outs with our team members, and thus travelling by train and relive the experience of train journey (after a long gap). However, fortunately or unfortunately it could not happen. The one ‘mini gang-out’ chance was missed on account of my health issues and after that the ‘lockdown’ happened and train services were cancelled. Secondly, then I got a job and it turned out to be the ‘shortest tenure job’ of my career. Meanwhile health issues continued and after some time they became ‘mind issues’😊
During this time where everything was looking going wrong the only thing I was doing ‘right’ (or I was able to do it correctly) was contributing to the blog with write-ups and sharing songs. It was like a retired person life or semi-retired life for me. (sabbatical is the other word – ‘Doctor’s terminology 😊)
Well, I was daily praying to the almighty to bring my life on ‘track’. (मेरी गाड़ी को पटरी पर ला दो भगवान्). And as it so happened the almighty got me engaged indirectly in the ‘maintenance’ of ‘tracks’ for all. (or मैंने उपरवाले से प्रार्थना की थी के मेरी गाड़ी को पटरी पर ला दो भगवान्, पर भगवान् मुझे काम ही ऐसा दिया के मैं सब के लिए पटरियों के मरम्मत के काम में हाथ बटाऊँ).
While the first job was around 35-40 kms from my residence the second one is 50-55 kms away from the city. Travelling for the first job I have to cross a over bridge on a railway line near the satellite station of the city and I used to see trains coming and going from a longer distance.
But now I am getting to watch the ‘tracks’ daily with those beautiful ‘track maintenance machines’ (innovation of the technology). Secondly a railway line passes around this place so I can watch trains coming and going. That reminds me of all the ‘train songs’ from our movies and specially ‘gaadi bulaa rahi hai’, which is a source of inspiration and motivation and how accurate are the words in this song …
dekho wo rail,
bachchon ka khel,
seekho sabak jawaanon
sar pe hai bojh,
seene mein aag,
lab pe duaa hai jaano
phir bhi ye ja rahi hai,
naghmein suna rahi hai
gaadi bula rahi hai,
seetee bajaa rahi hai
This has become my daily inspiration and motivation now.
Another good thing happening at the end of the year was the pre-engagement function of elder daughter 😊 (Sahir’s song always playing in the back ground in my mind).
So, the year ‘2020’ is ending on a very happy note for me on both home and work fronts. At work I have taken a new challenge but the daily inspiration and motivation – the train – with me. I get to read this tagline ‘the journey continues … with many miles to go’ daily now and it reminds me that the journey is still on … my journey continues…
And, that is why the today’s song is a ‘train song’ sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Talat Mehmood. It is from the 1955 movie ‘Do Dulhe’. Lyrics are by Pandit Indra and music is composed by B.S. Kalla.
On screen it is performed by a male and a female actress whom I am unable to identify, however Shyama and Sajjan are also seen in the picturisation of this song.
I had come across this song more than two years back now, when there was a discussion about train songs on the ‘Whatsapp group’ of Atulites.
Lastly, I wish to add about the other love of our group that is ‘cricket’. The year ended on a happy note for India as our team scored a win over Australia. The ‘year-ending’ also reminds me of statistics like most ‘runs’ or ‘wickets’ and ‘run and wickets double’ in a single ‘calendar’ year. If the scores in single calendar year is to be considered with reference to ‘write-ups’ and/ or ‘lyrics’ shared will be interesting to know (tnih) for the artists (as well as the contributors) 😊
Let us now enjoy this philosophical train song …

जीवन की ई गाड़ी चलती है …
जीवन की गाड़ी चलती है
कुछ रूकती फिर चलती
जीवन की गाड़ी चलती गाड़ी चलती
ऊंची नीची राहों पे
यूं नदिया चली मचलती
गाड़ी चलती
जीवन की ई गाड़ी चलती
कोई सुखी है
कोई दुखी है
कोई गाता
कोई रोता आ

कोई रोता आ आ
कमर झुकाए खडा है कोई
पांव पसारे सोता आ आ
पांव पसारे सोता आ
कभी सवेरा होता सुख का आ
आ आ आ आ
कभी सवेरा होता सुख का
दुःख की संध्या ढलती ई
आंसू और गीतों की दुनिया
रहती सदा बदलती
आंसू और गीतों की दुनिया
रहती सदा बदलती
गाड़ी चलती
जीवन की ई गाड़ी चलती
जीवन की गाड़ी चलती है
कुछ रूकती फिर चलती
जीवन की गाड़ी चलती गाड़ी चलती

We have discussed ‘rail’ songs in our blog from time to time. Train and/or railways have always been my favorite subject and I always love to travel in trains whenever possible. I have many fond memories associated with my various journeys in narrow gauge, meter gauge and broad-gauge trains.
Other members of this blog also like to write about rail/train. Railways, there improvement, and possibility of high -speed trains to cover two long distance points in minimum time possible, is the favorite topic of many ‘Atulites’ and specially of Raja Saab.
And our leader Atul ji has also time to time discussed rail songs in his posts. It was couple of years back (or precisely in the month of May’2018) that there was some discussion about ‘railways and high-speed trains’ in the ‘Atulites WhatsApp’ group.
It started with Raja Saab expressing his wish for an overnight journey train between SBC-CSTM. He also mentioned that maybe he is a bit spoilt 😊 by high speed travels (by train) in Europe.
Well the discussion was a long one and I am not going to reproduced it all here. (Rather I will keep some points from it for another write-up in the future).
During the discussion Atul ji said that ‘as an insider (in railways)’ he can bring the various suggestions to the attention of the higher authorities or even through his posts on the blog he can throw light on many issues and can even take a series of articles connecting ‘rail/train’ issues if we can suggest him some good songs from Hindi movies.
As usually I am, being an over-enthusiastic person 😊, I search and send many songs to our editors. Atul ji had also wrote some good posts and presented some good songs. However, no song from the lot I sent was selected for a post (till now 😊).
Today I am presenting one of the songs from this lot.
So far, on the blog we have ninety-eight songs under ‘Rail songs’ and many of them are timeless classics like ‘zindagi ke safar mein guzar jaate hain jo makaam’ composed by R.D. Burman, ‘Gaadi bulaa rahi hai’ by Laxmikant-Pyarelal etc etc.
I think R.D. Burman composed many songs in this ‘genre’ and it would be interesting to know how many other lyricists and composers are involved in creating rail songs and who are the toppers.
But then, it again is the subject matter of another post (may be the next post in this ‘genre’ could be presented with these statistics with a rail song).
One of the other Pancham composed rail song that immediately comes to mind is ‘ham dono do premi duniya chhod chale’ from ‘Ajnabi-1974’ which was picturized with Rajesh Khanna and Zeenat Aman on a ‘freight train’ jumping on ‘haystacks’. (Atul ji’s terminology) and I am specially mentioning this song now because
if we watch today’s song it immediately reminds us of the above song.
However, today’s song is composed by Bappi Lahiri.
And today 27th November 2020 is his sixty-eighth birth anniversary.
On this occasion wishing Bappi Lahiri a very happy birthday and a healthy and peaceful life ahead let us enjoy the today’s song picturized on Mithun Chakravarty and Ranjeeta, also seen is Shakti Kapoor in the picturization of this song.
(This song is also picturized on a ‘freight-train’ 😊)
‘Tarkeeb-1982’ was directed by Ravikant Nagaich for ‘Venus Combines, Madras’. Ravikant Nagaich also did the photography of this movie. It was produced by S. Krishnamurthy.
Story of this movie was written by Taarakaraamaa and dialogues of this movie were written by Ramesh Pant.
Editing of this movie was done by N.M. Shankar. It had Ranjeeta, Mithun Chakravarty, Shakti Kapoor, Rakesh Pande, Sharat Saxena, Paintal, Mukri, Beena, Parveen Pal, Naaz, Dinesh Hingoo, Leena Das, Dinesh Sharma, Kalpana Ayyer, Prem Bedi, Guddi, Madan Puri and others.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 25.11.1982.
This movie had six songs written by Anjaan and its music was composed by Bappi Lahiri. Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, S. Janaki, Kishore Kumar, Amit Kumar, S.P. Balasubramaniam and Bappi Lahiri have given their voices to the songs in this movie.
This movie ‘Tarkeeb-1982’ makes its debut on the blog and so does Bappi Da makes a debut in the category of ‘rail songs’ (if I am not wrong 😊) on the blog.
Let us now enjoy today’s song sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. Their voices are lip synced by Mithun Chakraborty and Ranjeeta respectively.

जब जब बोले
धक् धक् डोले
दिल मेरा आ
ये चलती गाडी ई
गाडी में हम तुम
दोनों अकेले यहाँ
आँखों से हलकी हलकी
मस्ती ये छलकी छलकी
पागल ये प्यासी प्यासी रात
ये मौसम महका महका
ये साँसे दहकी दहकी
होठों पे बहकी बहकी बात
किस्मत से ऐसा आ
मौक़ा मिला है
फिर ऐसा मौक़ा कहाँ
तन मन में ये जो
शोले हैं दहके
ना आग है ना धुंआ आ
भई छुक छुक गाडी
जब जब बोले
धक् धक् डोले
दिल मेरा आ
कल तक तो थी दीवानी
करती थी मैं मनमानी
तुझसे ही मानी मैंने हार
किस्मत में थी तू मेरी
किस्मत में था मैं तेरी
होना था तेरा मेरा प्यार
जिस दिन से तेरी बाहों में आई
भूली मैं दोनों जहां
ये चलती गाडी ई
गाडी में हम तुम
दोनों अकेले यहाँ
अरे छुक छुक गाडी
जब जब बोले
हे धक् धक् डोले
दिल मेरा आ
हे छुक छुक गाडी
जब जब बोले
हे धक् धक् डोले
दिल मेरा आ
ना डर है ना बदनामी
दिल ने भी भर दी हामी
फिर क्यूँ रहें दूर दूर
कुछ बोले ये तन्हाई
दिल थम थम ले अंगडाई
दोनों नशे में हैं चूर
बरसों के प्यासे मिल जाएँ ऐसे
जैसे ज़मीन आसमान
हाँ
ये चलती गाडी ई
गाडी में हम तुम
दोनों अकेले यहाँ आ
अरे छुक छुक गाडी
जब जब बोले
धक् धक् डोले
दिल मेरा आ
