Music director Ajit Merchant is better known for his contributions to the Gujarati cinema and to the theatre world in Bombay. He did venture into the Hindi film world also, albeit his contribution is limited to less than 10 movies. Saperaa (1961) is one of the movies that Ajit Merchant composed music for. I have already discussed a wonderful Manna Dey solo from this movie, some days back. Here is another beautiful gem of a song from the same movie. This is a duet, that is rendered so lovingly by Manna Dey and Suman Kalyanpur. The lyrics are by Indeewar. The lead roles in this movie are played by Jyoti and Ranjan. Other actors in the film are Tiwari, Jeevnkala, Sunder, Uma Dutt, Neena, Rajan Kapoor etc.

Even though I have been a long time fan and a collector of songs from obscure movies, and lesser known artists and composers, and even though after having met this blog few months ago, in song after song on a daily basis, I have encountered wonderful creations from obscure movies, yet it seems there is a huge treasure still to be unearthed. And this wonderful melody is such a superb example. Once again, a song heard many years ago on the radio, and recently rediscovered on YouTube. And what a heartening, foot tapping discovery it is.

I have discussed as many as seven songs from “Shamaa” (1961) and what fabulous songs they are. There are more lovely songs in this movie, but they are apparently not available on youtube. So I had to do dig deeper in order to come up with the missing songs from this movie.

I thought that I had already discussed this song from “Shamaa” (1961) but it turns out that I was wrong. I was confusing this song with another song from this movie.
