A lovely duet that has so far not made it to this blog. Two songs from the film ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Baat’ (1959) are already posted here. This here is the third song from this film. A wonderful duet of two hearts in love expressing desires to go together to destinations of happiness and love. The singing voices are of Manna Dey and Lata Mangeshkar. A gem of a song that is a wonderful memory from the days of listening to the radio.

Autobiography(AB) is a type of literature which has a limited, selective and captive readership. Only those who are connected with the writer, personally or professionally will be interested in reading it. It can not have a widespread readership. A Doctor’s AB may be read by members of his profession or by those who are connected personally with him. Others who are unconnected may not even buy that book.

“Rangeeli” (1952) was an M & T Production movie. It was directed by Najam Naqvi. This obscure movie had Raj Kumar, S. Nazir, Leela Misra, Yakub, Rehana etc in it. I presume that the Raj Kumar of this movie is one of the lesser known Raj Kumars.
Ps-Mr Harish Raghuwanshi, the compiler of Mukesh Geetkosh and a regular of this blog informs me that this movie in fact was the debut movie of the famous Raj Kumar. So this Raj Kumar is in fact the well known “Jaani” Raj Kumar.
