This song is one of those memorable and immortal songs that the trio of Madan Mohan, Lata and Raja Mehdi Ali Khan created in 1960s. Most such songs were favoured by class audience, and the masses kept away. But here was a classy song that influenced even the masses. This song featured in Binaca geetmala final of 1964 (at 15th position).

This song is one of the oldest in this blog, and one of the most cherished one. Noorjahan makes her debut in my blog with this song. Rafi figures in this song too. This was one of the earliest hit filmy song of Rafi.
Except this song and singers, most other things about this song have been largely forgotten. This movie was called Jugnu ( I only knew a Dharmendra- Hema Malini movie of this name in 1970s). The lyricist is someone called Tanvir Naqvi, a namesake of the current Pakistani new ball bowler. Music director was someone called Feroz Nizami.

I grew in that era when masses would run away a mile from classical songs or classical dances. There were few takers for such kind of art.
Those days, some bollywood makers on a shoe string budget would make movies different from mainstream movies. Such movies earned rave reviews and critical praise, but these movies were rejected by masses. Film festivals were often the only place one could watch such movies.

Public have their own rankings for songs, but what about the elite, those who create such songs ? How do they rank songs and which are the songs that they rate the best ? A couple of years ago, an Indian magazine ( Outlook ) had taken a poll of people associated with Bollywood music industry ( singers, music directors, lyricists ) to find out their favourite songs.

This song is a very special song. Not only is it the oldest song (1948) posted in this blog so far , this is one song that very few people may have heard. This song was composed for the movie “Anokhi Ada” (1948). As many bollywood music fans may be aware, this movie was a musical blockbuster full of memorable songs.
This particular song was excluded from the movie at the editing stage. As a result, this song died an untimely death, and people forgot all about it.

Younger music lovers of Bollywood music may not have heard of music director Shamji Ghanshamji. And very little information is available on him in internet.
Readers may have noticed that I have used the word him, and not they for Shamji Ghanshamji. Yes, it was one single individual, who had named himself that way, perhaps to give his name an appearance similar to that of Kalyanji Ananadji.

Some day I will make a list of all the sad songs of Mukesh, and then I will analyse them to find out which song expresses which kind of sadness. I may be able to identify scores of types of sadnesses listening to Mukesh’s songs, and then I will present my thesis to an university and take a doctorate. Not a bad idea, I think.

“Bandini” was a movie that had some of the saddest songs one can come across. Each of these songs could move the audience, not only when the movie was released, but even today, some 45 years later.
Circumstances force Nutan to leave her home without informing anyone, and she leaves her home one night. Of course, she did not know what lay in store for her.

People like me tend to classify bollywood songs simply between sad and happy songs. But there could be so many variations to each of these themes. For instance, sad songs could have so many shades. Mukesh has sung so many sad songs, and they all are different from each other.
