Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 6

Aha, a very fragrant addition to this series. We now have a song that is sung by the seller of ‘itra’, or ‘attar’ or Indian fragrant oils.
The word ‘attar’ ‘itr’ brings to mind the sensations of exotic perfumes, that is a world and a vocabulary all by itself. It also brings with itself, the long list of glamorous and mysterious names such as Zaafraan, Shamaama, Majmuha, Motia, Raajgir, Chameli, Chandan (or Sandal), Firdaus, Nargis, Mushq-Amber, Gulab, Kesar (Saffron), Khas, Kasturi and many more. These fragrant oils from India, are prepared from natural plant sources viz. flower petals, leaves, wood and plant resins. (Except for ‘Kasturi’ (Musk), which is derived from animal origin viz. the musk deers. Pure and authentic ‘Kasturi’ is a very rare thing to locate these days. A sure test of its authenticity is that if you bring just a few grains of pure Kasturi near your nostrils, you will have a nosebleed, such is the power of this aroma.)

Shyamlal Babu Rai, who wrote endearing gems in the golden era of melody, such as “Bade Armaanon Se Rakha Hai Balam Teri Kasam”, and also popular hits for the new generation in the 1970s, such as “Aap Jaisa Koi Meri Zindagi Mein Aaye, To Baat Ban Jaaye”, had started his career back in the 1946 with two completely obscure and now unknown films – ‘Double Face’ and ‘Jungle Ki Pukaar’.
