हाँ भई, होली हो और गीतों में रंग न हो तो, तो क्या मज़ा है, हाँ?
बस, भला हो उस ऊपर से ideas देने वाले का। गाने में एक से ज़्यादा आवाज़ हो तो पंक्तियों को color code कर दो। और फिर देखो गीत की लाईनें पढ़ने का मज़ा। और होली के दिन तो बस मज़ा रंगदार गीतों का ही है। सो, पेश है एक ऐसा ही रंगदार पंक्तियों वाला गीत – होली भी और रंग भी, दोनों ही गीत में गुथे हुये मिल गए।
होली मुबारक

This is the song, where all the three comedians of the film are gathered together for a song. I think this is the only song in the Hindi film history where these three comedians par excellence have together in one song.

Folk music has played an important role in popularising Hindi film songs. The films’ producers and more so the music directors knew that folk music based film songs bring instant connectivity with the cine goers especially in the semi-urban and rural areas. The beats and rhythms of most of the folk music are good inspirations for music directors to customise the Hindi film songs accordingly. In the early years of Hindi film music following the advent of talkies, songs were mostly based on classical and semi-classical tunes which included the traditional devotional music. The earliest Hindi film songs recorded on a folk based tune as per my search of the Hindi film songs on the internet was a song bande naav ka langar chhod from ‘Kangan’ (1939) which appears to be based on a bhatiali ( boat man’s) folk song of Bengal. There may be a few more Hindi film songs in the 30s based on folk music.

I was aware of four popular folklores of Punjab-Sind provinces which are now in Pakistan – Heer Ranjha, Mirza Sahiban, Sohni Mahiwal and Sassi Punnu. These are the tragic love stories in which the lovers die at the end. The common features of all these four folklores are (i) the female character is extremely beautiful, (ii) families of both the lovers resent their unions, (iii) female lovers are forced by their families to marry other man and (iv) at the end, female lovers die first followed by the male lovers except in case of Mirza Sahiban where the two lovers die in the reverse order.
