Hullo Atuldom

“Bansi Birju” (1972) was produced & directed by Prakash Verma; according to sites on the internet he was associated with two other films Dev Anand’s ‘Lootmaar’ as writer & ‘I Love You’ as director in 1985 (must say I have not heard of the second film which had Rajan Sippy & Sahila Chadda in the cast).

“Bansi Birju” had music by flutist, composer, choreographer, musicologist, poet & writer Vijay Raghav Rao. He had worked in ‘Bhuvan Shome’ (1969) & ‘Gandhi’ (1982). The lyricist for “Bansi Birju” was Yogesh Gaud for songs in the voices of Vani Jayaram, Mohd Rafi, Manna Dey, and Chitra Dutta. A little googling gave me the answer that Chitra Dutta was born as Chitra Shome but is known worldwide as Chitra Singh the better half of ghazal singer Jagjit Singh.

“Paanch Dost”(1974) was directed by Vijay for Chanda Films International, Bombay. The movie had Vijaylalita, Krishna, Prabhakar Reddy, Jagga Rao, Anand, Tyagraj, JyotiLaxmi etc in it. From the cast, it is clear that it was a South Indian language movie that was dubbed into Hindi. In addition to dubbing the dialogues into Hindi, the makers of the movie got the songs too resung into Hindi. There were four female solos in the movie, all sung by Vani Jairam. From the lyrics, all the songs appear club dance/ bar dance/ cabaraat dance kind of songs with Chaalu kind of lyrics. I wonder why the movie is then titled “Paanch Dost” ?

As the title of this post suggests, today we are going to add another movie from the year ‘1973’ which so far is missing from the blog.

We are heading towards an interesting journey as we progress in this series. We are going to listen to songs from lesser known movies (obviously). These songs have been composed and sung by lesser known artistes too. If not lesser known these are artistes who failed to make it big in Hindi movies. In this process we sometimes come across songs from forgotten movies that were nevertheless popular those days before they were forgotten.

Ten years back on this date viz on 11th October 2012, eight songs from eight different movies were covered on the blog. Here are the details:-
