Song-Jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya(Maa Baap)(1960) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Rajinder Krishan, MD-Chitragupta
Lyrics
aa aa aaaa aa aa
aa aa aa
jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
jal ja parayi aag me parwaana kah gaya
kitne pate ki baat ik deewana kah gaya
kitne pate ki baat ik deewana kah gaya
deewaana kah gaya
jal ja parayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
mujhko to sabki pyaas bujhaane se kaam hai
mujhko to sabki pyaas bujhaane se kaam hai
honthon tak aake raaz ye paimaana kah gaya
paimaana kah gaya
jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
jal ja parayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
deta na apne phool jo duniya ke baag ko
deta na apne phool jo duniya ke baag ko
aabaad main bhi hota ye weerana kah gaya
weerana kah gaya
jal ja parayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
jal ja parayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
aayi subah to aakhri taara bhi toot ke
aayi subah to aakhri taara bhi toot ke
kaisi kati hai raat ye afsaana kah gaya
afsaana kah gaya
jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
kitne pate ki baat ik deewaana kah gaya
deewaana kah gaya
jal ja paraayi aag mein parwaana kah gaya
Dildaar tu hai mera pyaar tu hai

Today’s song is from the film Bambai ki Billi aka Wild Cat-1960.
This was a Stunt film, produced by Aspy Irani for his own banner – Super Pictures, Bombay. The film was directed by Zahoor Ahmed. The music was by Khayyam. He was assisted by Bipin and Mehboob. This Bipin was a part of Bipin-Babul duo, who gave music to 12 films together as a team. After leaving Khayyam, Bipin assisted Madan Mohan, where Babul was already an assistant. They joined hands and made a pair of Composers as Bipin-Babul.
Film Bambai ki Billi was an interesting film.This was actually the 3rd film with this title. The history of this film is very amusing..The first film was ‘ The Wild Cat of Bombay aka Bambai ki Billi’ – a Silent film made by Imperial films co. in 1927. Their famous actress-heroine Sulochana (Ruby Meyers) was the film’s Heroine and her Hero was one Jamshed. This film was directed by a novice Mohan Bhavnani, who became a big name in later years.
After Talkie films started, Imperial began Talkie remakes of their famous and popular Silent films and in 1936, Imperial made Bambai ki Billi aka Wild Cat of Bombay. The heroine was the same-Sulochana, but this time the Hero was different- Dinshaw Billimorea. Her earlier film Hero Jamshed was also in this film, but did a side supporting role. This time the film was directed by a veteran Nandlal Jaswantlal.(He became a famous director with films like Nagin and Anarkali in the 50s.). Nandlal had already done a Talkie remake of Indira, BA-a popular silent film as Imperial’s Indira MA. This was with Sulochana and D.Billimoria. Bambai ki Billi-36 was a social film,in which Sulochana had done 8 different roles. The roles were Policeman,Gardener, Gambler, Beggar, Hyderabadi gentleman, Banana Seller, a street urchin and an European Blonde girl. By the way, Sulochana is the only actress in Hindi film world, who acted in 4 remake films having same titles and doing the same roles in all films-silent and Talkie. Her films were Madhuri, Indira MA, Bambai ki Billi and Anarkali.
Besides the interesting history of this film title, the film also boasts of a Director, who was the only person in Hindi film industry who disappeared mysteriously – for ever. The name is Aspy Irani. Film was directed by Aspi Irani,who was basically famous for stunt and C grade films. Aspy Irani was an important director from the early films. His full name was ASPANDIAR HORMUSJI IRANI. He was born in the Parsi colony, Panch Gardens in Dadar, Bombay on 8-10-1911. He started work in the film industry after he completed his secondary schooling and as all Parsis are, due to his hard work, he soon attained a top rank in the Industry. He started directing films from 1936,the early Talkie stage, when the influence of Parsi Theatre, fantasies and dramas on folklore was the staple of stunt films. All such films had a basic structure and with a little changes here and there new films hit the screens.
There was a fixed audience for such films, but as the time went by, slowly the taste of the audience changed. However Aspi Irani continued with his style till the end. He did direct few social films also but the handling of social films had a clear stamp of Aspi’s direction.
He must have directed about 50-55 films till the early 80s. Some of his films were, Naya paisa, qaidi no.911,Barood,Shabnam,Badal etc. He was married to actress Husn Bano ( daughter of actress Shareefa).
On a fine morning on 23rd November 1986,Aspi left his home in the morning for work and never ever returned. No one knows what happened to him. Since then there was no trace of this man and officially he was declared ‘missing since 23-11-1986′. What an end to a legend !
The film cast was Kumkum, Sudhir, Mukri, Nazima, TunTun, Chanda Bai, Nazir Kashmiri, Ashalata etc. etc. The Hero of the film was Sudhir – who died about 7 years ago. He was a small time villain in many big films like Deewar etc. This was his First film as a hero.
Bhagwandas Mulchand Luthria (13-4-1931 to 12 May 2014) aka Sudhir was a Bollywood film actor. He was best known for his role in the film Satte Pe Satta with Amitabh Bachchan. He acted in 226 films in a career spanning from 1962 to 2009. He was one of Bollywood’s best known villains from the 1970s through the 1990s.
His first film was Taxi Driver-1954. One gets to see his name appear first time as a male lead in the 1960 Sheikh Mukhtar film ‘Baarood’. And then again in the same year, as the male lead in the film ‘Bambai Ki Billi’. Both films have Kumkum paired opposite to him. In 1961 came the somewhat more appreciated ‘Umar Qaid’, again a Sheikh Mukhtar film, in which Sudhir is paired opposite to a very young Nazima.
In an effort to break into the next level of films, maybe, Sudhir started to work in side roles. He acted in prem patra starring sadhna and shashi kapoor 1962 as Subhash.He appeared in Apna Ghar Apni Kahani (Pyas) opposite Mumtaz in 1968, singing “Jigar me dard kaisa ishko ulfat to nhi kahate” and ‘main ye sochkar uske dar se utha tha’ (Hakeekat), ‘mujhe raat din ye khayal hai’ and ‘mere dil pe andheri sa chhan laga’ from Ek Phool Ek Bhool’.
He often played the second-in-command sidekick to villains Ajit, Prem Nath and Pran, a torturous police inspector, or a sleazy man. He was most known for his shrill voice, long moustache and sideburns. He starred in at least a dozen Amitabh Bachchan movies, such as Deewaar, Kaalia, Majboor, Sharaabi, Satte Pe Satta, Dostana, Shaan and Lal Baadshah.
The 1969 film ‘Mahal’ brought Sudhir in touch with Dev Anand, and thence started an association that would last a lifetime. Starting with ‘Gambler’(1971), Sudhir has appeared in almost every Dev Anand film, whether produced by Navketan or by any other production banner.
Other notable appearances included Feroz Khan’s 1974 hit Khote Sikkay, its sequel Kachche Heere, Dharmatma, as well as Mera Gaon Mera Desh, and roles of a handicapped thief in Dev Anand’s Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971), as police inspector (Special Appearances) in Subhash Ghai’s Meri Jung (1985) and in the Shah Rukh Khan-starring Baadshah (1999). His last film appearances were in Jhoom Barabar Jhoom (2007) and Victoria House (2009). He was also filmmaker Milan Luthria’s paternal uncle. He died on 12 May 2014 at the age of 70. He had long been suffering from a lung infection. (based on information from wiki and an article of Sudhir ji).
The film had only 7 songs. This was a major change in the HFM. Initially, people had a fascination for film songs and hence in the early cinema of the 30’s average number of songs used to be 15 to 20 songs. In the 40s the number came down to about 10 to 12 songs and in the 50’s the number was between 6 to 8 songs. All the 7 songs of this film were written by Hasarat Jaipuri. Two songs are already covered. this will be the third song today.
All the 7 songs were good. The film was a C grade film , but the Music Director was an A grade composer. Enjoy this Geeta Dutt solo song……
Song-Dildaar tu hai mera pyaar tu hai (Bambai Ka Billi)(1960) Singer-Geeta Dutt, Lyrics-Hasrat Jaipuri, MD-Khayyam
Lyrics
dildaar tu hai

ikraar kar lo ji
apna hi maano
apna hi jaano
aankhen chaar kar lo ji
dildar tu hai
mera pyaar tu hai
ikraar kar lo ji
apna hi maano
apna hi jaano
aankhen chaar kar lo ji
meharbaan dekhiye
raat kitni haseen
pyaar ki chaandni
dhal na jaaye kahin
aisa na ho tere liye mar jaayen ham
dildar tu hai
mera pyaar tu hai
ikraar kar lo ji
apna hi maano
apna hi jaano
aankhen chaar kar lo ji
tu mila
to mili
jhoom kar har khushi ee
saikdon rang mein
naach uthhi zindagi ee
mehfil teri jalwe mere teri kasam
dildaar tu hai
mera pyaar tu hai
ikraar kar lo ji
apna hi maano
apna hi jaano
aankhen chaar kar lo ji
dil dukha kar kabhi
chain milta nahin ee
jaan le
zulm ka
phool khilta nahin ee
?? samajh dil ki zubaan
kar na sitam
dildar tu hai
mera pyaar tu hai
ikraar kar lo ji
apna hi maano
apna hi jaano
aankhen chaar kar lo ji

Remembrance Day of N Datta on 30.12.2020
———————————————————
————————————–
Geeta Dutt – Solos and duets (01)
————————————–
This is a tribute post for Datta Naik, also known as N Datta, on his 33 death anniversary. It looks as if, N Datta formed a successful team with Sahir Ludhianvi as most of his popular songs are with Sahir in the period 1957-1959. He has composed a sizeable 349 songs in 54 films, out of which 221 are already in the blog.
A few weeks aga I inadvertently ended up with a short list of Geeta Dutt’s song links, which included different genre of songs, duets, solos and female duets. They are mostly so sweet and pleasing songs. Sometimes melancholy, but still sweet.
So here is the first song in the series, combined with the remembrance day tribute post of N. Datta. It is a Mohammed Rafi- Geeta Dutt duet from the 1960 film “Rickshawala”. The lyricist here is Jan Nisar Akhtar. The song actually is a sales pitch song. The sale of the humble fruit called “Chikoo”. It is called “Sapota” too. Both singers along with chorus are enthusiastically promoting it, even offering it for free, in exchange of a heart. The celebrity names are also freely taken for encouraging people to buy the fruit. So it is a fruit vendors song, who say that :
‘chehre ka ye husn badhaaye,
Nargis khaaye,
Nimmi khaaye,
khaaye madhubala”
‘ Chikoo’ is supposed to be rich in iron, so may be, it is useful in increasing ‘chehre ka husn’. I had early experience of buying ‘chikoo’ in, believe it or not Mumbai local trains. The price was unbelievable, 5-6 chickoos for Rs. 2/- only. Those were the cheap 80’s.
Only two songs from this film are posted so far :
| Song | Date of posting |
|---|---|
| Neeli saadi sunahra jumper | 14 February 2012 |
| Jawaani mein to ik dil ki | 18 December 2018 |
Title of the film is ‘Rickshawala’, but there is no riksha or tonga song here. There are these marathi words repeated in the song ‘aga saku, ghe chikoo’. It means ‘O saku, buy chikoo’. ‘Saku’ may be a slang or a nickname of sort, where girls are called ‘saku’ in a teasing way.
I could find only the audio link for the song, but it is filmed on Johnny Walker and Anita Guha. Another film with only Mohammed Rafi male singer, with Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle and Geeta Dutt.
Song-Pandit ho ya lala ya Gandhi topi waala (Rickshawala) (1960) Singers-Geeta Dutt, Rafi, Lyrics-Jaan Nisaar Akhtar, MD-N Datta
Chorus
Rafi + Geeta Dutt
Lyrics

One notices that Lata Mangeshkar did not have a single song with C Ramchandra in movies released in 1959 as well as 1960 because she fell out with him. Despite that C Ramchandra continued to be the music director with highest number of songs composed for Lata Mangeshkar (263). Shankar Jaikishan, who continued to work in many movies with Lata Mangeshkar closed in at 252 songs. Overall, the top eight music directors, viz C Ramchandra (263), Shankar Jaikishan (252), Anil Biswas (116), Husnlal Bhagatram (108), Chitragupta (105), Roshan (103), Madan Mohan (96) and Naushad (91) composed 1134 songs out of 2217 songs that Lata Mangeshkar had sung in Hindi movies till end of 1960. The top six lyricists till end of 1960 for Lata Mangeshkar were Rajinder Krishan (374), Shailendra (245), Hasrat Jaipuri (166), Shakeel Badayuni (134), Prem Dhaan (125) and Bharat Vyas (124). These six lyricists had penned 1168 songs sung by Lata Mangeshkar till that time.
Lata Mangeshkar tied up with music directors Malay Chakraborty, Pardesi, Pt Ravishankar, Usha Khanna and Vedpal Verma for the first time in movies of 1960. She tied up with lyricists Arjun, K L Pardesi, Muneer Aarzoo Kaazmi and Shamim Jaipuri for the first time in movies released in 1960.
Here is the summary of Lata Mangeshkar’s playback career in Hindi movies till end of 1960 :

| 1960 | 48 movies | 139 | 166 | 102 | 50 | 12 | 1 | |
| Total upto 1960 | 563 movies | 1836 | 2217 | 1596 | 461 | 117 | 41 |
As can be seen from the table of 1960, Lata Mangeshkar sang 166 songs in 48 movies released in 1960. As many as 139 of these songs have been covered in the blog. Out of 48 movies of 1960 where Lata Mangeshkar sang, all Lata Mangeshkar songs of 35 movies are already covered. So we have to look at the remaining 13 movies of 1960 to find Lata Mangesahkar songs to discuss in the blog.
Alphabetically the first such movie that offers us such Lata Mangeshkar songs to discuss is “Amar Shaheed”(1960). This movie was originally made in Tamil as Veerpandiya Kattabomman (1959). The movie was produced and directed by B R Panthalu for Padmini Pictures, Madras. The movie had Sivaji Ganesan, Gemini Ganesan, Padmini, Raagini, S Varalaxmi, V K Ramaswami, O A K Tear, Kannan, Natrajan, M R Santanam, V R Rajagopal, Mutthulaxmi, T Lalitha, Baby Kanchan, Jawar Seetaraman etc in it.
It appears that the movie rights were bought by Alok Bharati, Madras. The movie was dubbed in Hindi as “Amar Shaheed”(1960).
It appears to me from the songs that the Hindi dubbing was done in a casual manner. From the way the songs have been dubbed, it appears to me that the person translating the songs from Tamil into Hindi tried to do a literal translation and ended up with a Hindi words that sound unnatural.
The movie had ten songs in it. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice is there in three songs. Two are solos and one is a duet with Manna Dey. None of these three songs have been covered in the blog so far.
As mentioned above, the dubbing of movie and songs leaves a lot to be desired. I have picked a song whose lyrics appears to make some semblence of sense to me. This song is sung by Lata Mangeshkar and chorus. Arjun is the lyricist. Music is composed by Jamal Sen.
The song is picturised on Padmini and others.
From what I can make out, this song is about a strong bull that can apparenty strike fear in the minds of enemy. I have struggled to get the lyrics right but I have failed miserably, especially in the chorus part. I request our readers with keener ears to help fill in the blanks andsuggest corrections.
I also request our knowledgeable readers to thro light on the movie as well as on the picturisation of the song.

Bhaari bhaari meena kumari
ghar mein jaa ke maara maari
This was the sales pitch sh’air by some urchins in Mumbai local trains, selling small items like hairbands, hair clips, fancy earrings, finger rings and combs etc. I have had an highly educating experience of travelling in local trains on regular basis from 1988 to 1994, during peak hours, traversing the length and breadth of Mumbai on central, western and harbor lines. The sales pitch and the bol bachchan street seller’s ingenuity in using colourful simile’s, in the present song reminded me of the long forgotten ditty above. (bhaari means costly or rich in mumbaiyya)
I have a tendency of getting involved in different types of hobbies and activities if they catch my interest. I usually follow these interests for a while till something else occupies the space in my time. In school we had a learning topic of ‘home science’. They taught cooking, stitching, crocheting, embroidery etc. But I was only doing those things, to the extent necessary. But crocheting and embroidery had sort of caught my interest and I dabbled in them whenever the opportunity arose. If my mom was doing some knitting, then I would want to take up crochet and finish the wool which she brought to knit some sweater etc. I found the creativity there fascinating, especially in embroidery. Also crocheting and embroidery with wool is quicker.
Once I saw an advert in a magazine for a thread manufacturing co. The ad had a very colourfully embroidered one dimensional ‘charminar’. Not the cigarette box, but the actual ‘charminar’ of Hyderabad. It must have been early or late 80’s. I liked the colourful mural like look of it so much, that I wanted to make it immediately. I got hold of whatever new cloth piece I could find at home, which happened to be orange. I made a drawing of the charminar on a paper and traced it on to the cloth. Once basic work is done, then there is the need for the colourful silk thread, plus a big size ring to fix the cloth and needles. All the paraphernalia was arranged and I set to work, till it finished. It is one my treasured created things, along with one another similar whimsy design which was actually front portion of a small jacket. Many years later I had that embroidered ‘charminar’ framed. Now that frame is also broken, and the orange cloth is lying somewhere in a drawer, waiting reframing or whatever is its destiny.
It so happened that I visited Hyderabad city in April 2019. There was a wedding to attend and some business related visit. It was my second visit there, first being in 2008, which incidentally coincided with the annual “Numa’ish”. It is a traditional yearly event in Hyderabad, which is an exhibition cum sale, on a huge scale and an area is devoted to this “numa’ish”. Special buses are run from the outskirts and surrounding areas for people to travel to and fro, and all that razzmatazz. People came for this exhibition in droves. Now I don’t know if it is the same with all the changes, huge malls being more attractive. I myself found it easier to roam around alone at IKEA, while my husband attended to business.
The annual “Numaish” is held in the second half of january and the night prior to ‘republic day’ all govt. building were lit up with colourful lights. We visited the ‘charminar’ on the night of 25th January, to see it aglow with white lights. During that visit we couldn’t go inside the monument, which we rectified during the 2019 visit. A portion of it was closed even, as it was damaged during the previous monsoon. The huge complex of ‘chowmohalla palace’ is in close vicinity, but it is like an oasis of peace, if feels like another place altogether in total contrast to the area surrounding ‘charminar’. I think it must have been a walled city once upon a time with its multiple gates in all 4 directions, as was traditional for great cities.
Now of course, the city manages to hold in great contrasts, with all the commercial areas hosting huge multinationals office complexes.
After the 2019 visited, I looked and looked for a song featuring the city of Hyderabad to post. But I did not find any such songs. But yesterday I was looking for a good song composed by Sardar Malik, and found this Rafi solo, a sales pitch song, composed by Sardar Malik, written by Hasrat Jaipuri which is entirely shot in locations of Hyderabad old city. It is said that “dhoondne se khudaa miltaa hai”, so what is a song, how would it not be found. I found this song when I had given up finding such a song. The movie is “Mera ghar mere bachche”(1960) and the song is picturised on Charlie. The films cast included Sohrab Modi, Sulochana, Sudesh Kumar, Kumari Naaz, Balraj – I, Daisy Irani, Kavita, Nana Palsikar, Subbiraj, Sadhna Chowdhry, and S’aadat Ali, apart from Charlie. This movie is produced and directed by Sohrab Modi.
The rendition by Rafi Sahab is as usual the star of the show second only to the magnificent charminar filmed 60 years ago. The print is good, so some other historical buildings can also be seen in the song, like Safdarjung museum(ghanta ghar), the Chowmohalla palace entrance etc.
6 out of the 9 songs in the movie are already posted in the blog :
| Song | Date posted |
|---|---|
| Bahaaron se poochho mere pyaar ko tum | 22 September 2009 |
| Dil mera naache thunak thunak | 4 September 2010 |
| Chanda ke desh mein rehti ek raani | 11 March 2012 |
| Wo hi oodi oodi ghataayen hain | 1 July 2016 |
| Zulm bhi karte hain aur kehte hain ke fariyaad na kar | 19 June 2017 |
| Peena haraam hai to nigaahen milaa ke pee | 4 September 2020 |
The expressions in the song, like ‘sauda haathhon haathh hai’ , ‘muraaden dil ki bar aayen’, ‘andhere mein bahot kuchh soojh jaayegaa’, ‘aap ki munh mein ghee shakkar’,’ maare sharam ke phir gayaa paani’, so freely used are a refreshing reminder of a very civilized part of mumbaiyya dialect.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 78
———————————————————————————–
This day ten years ago viz 13 september 2010 saw six songs getting covered. The fist post appeared at 6:06 AM whereas the sixth and final post of the day appeared at 17:37 AM. Six songs posted within 91 minutes. That is called making short work of the daily blog target ! 🙂
Here are the details of the six songs discussed on 9 september 2010:-
| Blog Post number | Song | Movie Year of release | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2957 | Man letaa hai angdaayi | Anmol Ghadi 1946 | YIPPEED |
| 2958 | Haay re insaan ki majbooriyaan | Ghoonghat 1960 | 7 songs covered out of 10 |
| 2959 | Jhanan jhanjhanaa ke apni paayal | Aashiq 1962 | YIPPEED |
| 2960 | Chale jaanaa zaraa thahro Multiple version song | Around the world 1967 | YIPPEED |
| 2961 | Ba hosho hawaas mein deewaanaa | Night in London 1967 | YIPPEED |
| 2962 | One two three baby yaa yaa yaa | Kismat 1968 | YIPPEED |
As can be seen from the above table, five movies out of six whose songs were covered ten years ago have since been YIPPEED. “Anmol Ghadi”(1946) and “Kismat”(1968) got YIPPEED ten years back on this day viz on 13 september 2010 !
So, that leaves us with “Ghoonghat”(1960) as the sole movie eligible for today’s blog Ten year challenge.
As many as seven songs of “Ghoonghat”(1960) have been covered so far. Here are the details:-
| Song | Posted On |
|---|---|
| Laage naa moraa jiyaa | 13.05.2009 |
| Mori chham chham baaje paayaliyaa | 14.05.2009 |
| Kyaa kyaa nazaaren dikhaatin hai ankhiyaan | 06.09.2009 |
| Do nain milye do phool khiley | 08.09.2010 |
| Haay re insaan ki majbooriyaan | 13.09.2010 |
| Ye zindagi ka mausam aur ye samaa suhaanaa | 24.03.2012 |
| Meri pat raakho Giridhaari | 8.09.2020 |
Here is the eighth song from Ghoonghat”(1960) to appear in the blog. This song is a stage dance performance song. It is sung by Asha Bhonsle and it is picturised on Helen and others. No, it is not a cabarat song, rather it is a proper desi dance performance, where Helen lip syncs in not just Hindi but also in Tamil, Bangla and Punjabi, accompanied by the appropriate regional dances as well.
The picturisation shows Helen and others on stage. Dancing legend Gopi Krishna also joins during the Tamil part of the song.
The audience seated in the front row include Pradeep Kumar, Bina Rai, Minu Mumtaz etc.
Shakeel Badayuni is the lyricist. Music is composed by Ravi.
Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra, who has done a gallant job in attempting to note down the lyrics of all the languages. I request our knowledgeable readers to help suggest corrections in the lyrics wherever applicable.
