On the eve of my retirement from the service in 2006, I had started buying VCDs/DVDs of many classic Hindi films mostly of 40s and 50s to watch them as a part of my post retirement activities. While I have watched most of them, there were still a few VCDs which were lying intact without even breaking the plastic wraps. One of such VCDs was of the film ‘Village Girl’ (1945). What caught my attention was not the intact plastic cover but a boldly printed statement on the top of the VCD cover in Hindi which in English meant ‘Mohammed Rafi’s first song – ajee dil ho qaaboo mein to dildaar ki aisee taisee’. Until now I was under the impression that Mohammed Rafi’s first debut Hindi film as a playback singer was ‘Pahle Aap’ (1944). I decided to first watch the film.

This delightful and endearing sound of a heart that is finding love for the first time, took me by surprise. And the song seems to be really rare, in that I am not able to locate any published version online so far.

Somewhere in the late 2011 AK ji, of Songsofyore.com, had written on this Blog about the importance of NFS. After reading his views, I too wrote a rather lengthy comment supporting the inclusion of NFS on this Blog. Our contention was that, prior to the Hindi Film Music becoming popular all over India,it was those ghazals, Geets and Bhajans, privately sung and recorded by various artists which had ruled the tastes of music lovers. In fact many famous singers had recorded NFS in the beginning phase of their singing careers. Some names are Talat Mehmood, Saigal, Pankaj Mullick, Jagmohan and JUTHIKA ROY !

This is the Rafi-Lata Duet from Film ‘Sehra” (1963). It is picturized on Sandhya and Prashant. I saw this song for the first time while looking for desert songs in this film. And it is clear from the picturization that it was a precursor to this song in Sangam (1964).

There are two types of films, for which sure shot captive audience are readily available anytime. They are-
1. Religious or mythological films and
2. Tear jerkers or films depicting extreme pitiable conditions of women, like, for example- Aurat teri yehi kahani, Bhabhi or bhabhi ki choodiyan etc.
