The “suggestions” feature on youtube ensures that I spend several unintended hours listening to songs.

By now, most music lovers who are a regular of this blog must have come to the same conclusion about Chitragupta as I have concluded- that he was a grossly underrated and underutilised music director. Most of his music was given in B movies which did not catch the attention of mainstream movie goers. But what music these movies had !

Prima facie, this duet song has similar initial words as the “Dilli Ka Thug” (1958) song (ye raaten ye mausam nadi ka kinaara ), but the two songs are entirely different songs even though they share the same lyricist, music director and the female singer.

I have not seen “Wo Kaun Thhi” (1964) but I know that Manoj Kumar and Sadhana were the lead actors in this movie. Knowing Hindi movies, the lead duo in Hindi movies must fall in love and sing romantic duets. I have posted as many as five songs from this movie and I just realised that none of these songs were romantic duets picturised on the lead pair. There were songs picturised on them, but those songs were solo songs sung by Lata (and lip synced by Sadhana). In other words, Manoj Kumar did not get to lip sync in the songs picturised on Manoj Kumar and Sadhana.
