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.

I have been on a old movie watching spree recently. So far managed to see “Mere Mehboob” , “Deedar” and “Kaagaz ke Phool”. As it is, it is taking me 2-3 days to complete the film, because I do not like to miss a single scene or dialogue in the film. It has been a longtime wish to see “Kaaghaz ke Phool” which is finally fulfilled. Having seen “Pyaasa” I was somehow expecting a similar pathos laden fare. But this film is lot different as it is rather brighter with the spirit of ‘lights camera action’.

Wow, and what a wonderfully melodious gem this one turns out to be. And an absolutely fantastic Rafi – Asha duet. In fact this was actually the song that I had prepared for posting yesterday, in the run up to the 300th Rafi – Asha duet and 200th song by Qamar Jalaalabaadi. Almost at the last moment, I got this message from Atul ji, requesting me to post the ‘Baaje Waala, Patiaayaale Waala’ instead. And so I switched the songs. And as I had the lyrics all ready to go, I am posting this as one of the songs to welcome in the new year. The melody and the tempo of music is so uplifting, it is a befitting piece of music to play on a celebration like today.
