Today’s song is from the movie ‘Anarbala-1961’. This movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time. However the songs of this movie that are available are great songs. This observation has often been made by our members that these so called B or C grade movies had some great music in them. These movies may have become obscure, but their music deserve better fate
‘Anarbala-1961’ is one such movie. The movie appears to be lost, but some of its songs have survived and have become available online.

Today, December 25, 2025, is the 10th Remembrance Day of Sadhana, the fashion icon of Hindi cinema in the 1960s. She was also called the ‘mystery girl’ because she acted in three mystery genre of films one after another. In her short filmy career of about 15 years, she had a high success ratio in terms of hit films. She worked with top directors like Bimal Roy, Raj Khosla, Yash Chopra, Hrishikesh Mukherjee and H S Rawail. Her co-stars included Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Raj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Rajesh Khanna and Dharmendra. Sadhana came and conquered the Hindi film industry in the 1960s and by the end of 1970s, she virtually vanished from the film industry.

The song in this post is from an unreleased movie ‘Rani Chandravati-1960s’. One song from this movie has been presented on the blog earlier by our Shree Sudhir jee.
Not much information about this movie is available in Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970) where this movie is mentioned under the section of Un-Released movies. Geet Kosh lists six songs leaving space for the possibility that more songs might have been recorded for this movie. The singer’s names for all the six songs have been mentioned. And they include Suman Kalyanpur and Subir Sen; with Suman Kalyanpur having three solos and one solo by Subir Sen. Music for this movie was composed by S.N. Tripathi. Out of the six songs in the movie two have been identified as penned by lyricist B.D. Mishra.

In this short write-up, I present a duet song, ‘gulaabi nazaare nazaare gulaabi’ rendered by Mohammed Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur from an obscure film, ‘Lakhpati’ (1991). It was the only film produced and directed by Jal Baliwala. The film was certified by Censor Board on April 5, 1991, but it could not get the theatrical release. Later, the film was released on VCD. I have given the story of the film in my earlier article while covering the song, nashe mein choor nazar hai mujhe.
The musical composition of at least three songs including the one under discussion gives a feel of the golden period of Hindi film music of 1960s and I am not completely off the mark. Music director, Iqbal Qureshi came into prominence in the 1960s. Lata Mangeshkar was not singing with Mohammed Rafi in most part of 1960s. The song under discussion is a duet of Rafi with Suman Kalyanpur.

Today’s song is a lovely duet from the movie ‘Sati Sulochana-1969’. This song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur and Mahendra Kapoor. This song can well be categorized as a ‘chitrahaar’ of song. The melody will take you back to the melodious decade of the sixties.

Mukesh and his NFS – 11
In the annals of HFM, the association of Mukesh with composers Kalyanji-Anand ji will remain inscribed in golden letters for decades to come.
Class, genres, melody, numbers; you name it, you have it.
And, before the readers jump to conclusions, this post is not listing the songs of the combo. That will have to wait for another day since much work is involved in preparation of the long table as the numbers are in 3 digits. It will also involve multiple verifications so that no songs are missed.
In this regard, and in spite of posting 90+ Mukesh songs, it is an incomplete work if the following are not covered.
• Mukesh’s association with Shankar Jaikishen, Kalayanji Anandji and Laxmikant Pyarelal.
• Mukesh’s songs with Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosale.
• Mukesh’s songs for Raj Kapoor.
I am cognizant of this huge lacuna in my work and will endeavor to complete the tasks.
Today, I take up a rather easier task. That of Mukesh’s NFS with Kalyanji Anandji.
Mukesh sang in about 56 Hindi films scored by Kalyanji Anandji and in about 5 films which did not see the light of the day; meaning they remained unreleased.
As far as NFS are concerned, apparently, there are none as such. But, MGK-II lists three songs under NFS category. Guess what? All three NFS have some “film in the making”, “shelved” and “unreleased” sort of tags associated with them.
Here is the short table of the 3 “NFS”.
| S. No | Name of the song | Lyricist |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Na kajre ki dhaar, na motiyon ke haar | Indeewar |
| 2 | Main chakori tum gagan ke chandrama | Unknown |
| 3 | Hey re dayamay apni daya se | Unknown |
Needless to say, 1 and 3 are already represented on the blog. I would request readers to open the links of the two posted NFS as they are very interesting songs.
1 as I have detailed in the post is probably from an incomplete film “Navagraha”.
3 was from a released film, but the said song itself was not included in the film.
Today’s duet with an unknown female co-singer and an unknown lyricist is also probably from an incomplete film “Poornima”. Please note that the combo also has songs in another released film of the same title Purnima (1965). In this film, Mukesh has 3 glorious songs.
Two solos and an evergreen duet with Lata Mangeshkar. I am tempted to start writing on the songs of the combo now itself, but then that post will have to wait.
For today, we have this last NFS (a duet) of Mukesh under Kalyanji Anandji’s composition with a female singer whose identity is not known.
Editor’s note: The female voice sounds like Suman Kalyanpur.

Song-Main chakoree tum gagan ke chandrma (Mukesh NFS)(1970) Singers-Mukesh, Suman Kalyanpur, Lyricist-Unknown, MD-Kalyanji Anandji
Lyrics
Ho o o

tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
?? ke aaj baahon mein sama chandrma
main adhooraa hoon tumhaare bin poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
jaanee pehchaanee lage tu priytama priytama
main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
ho o maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
beet na jaaye suhaana ye samaa ye samaa
main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
