– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

A small child’s memory is so retentive, just like a sponge. I am sure other friends and listeners who lived by the music broadcast on the radio, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, would surely remember this fabulous Bhojpuri song. It is one of those unforgettable memories that will continue to play in the minds forever. It is just the way that Rafi Sb has sung this, makes it so endearing. The feeling is almost as if someone is tickling.

A voice that so effortlessly touched the depths of poignancy as no one else could. It was also the same voice that flitted with rapid rhythms to reach an apex exuberance. And in both flavors, this voice simply gets into the heart and the songs come so easily to the lips.

In an article posted today, Sudhir Ji lamented the fact that Religious movies had sadly gone out of favour and fashion among movie makers and that deprived people from the opportunity of watching Jeewan as Narad, Dara Singh as Hanuman and Premnath as Yamraj. 🙂

And then Sudhir Ji went to to discuss a song picturised on today’s birthday boy Premnath.

Listen to this song first, and then search for the familiar. See what you come up with. This song is from a very obscure ‘jaadugar sainyaan’ type film from 1964 titled ‘Magic Carpet’, the name in Hindi is ‘Jaadui Shatranji’. Consider the timing, consider the name of the music director, maybe you will make the connections.

“Pardesi”(1970) was based on a Novel of the same name by Kushwah Kant, who was a prolific Hindi novelist. At least forty novels (may be more) written by him were published but sadly little information about him is available online. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on him.

Aaye Bahaar Ban Ke
Lubha Kar Chale Gaye. . .

The history of film industry is abundant with tales of stars that appeared on the horizon, briskly ascended the popularity curve, and then either rapidly descended the other side, or simply faded away, with equal haste. Some of these tales have very poignant and depressing endings. And the sad part is that many such artists and performers have simply dissolved into the oblivion of time. For many of them, very little biographical information is available. It is as if the history itself is bent upon erasing all memories of such luckless stars.

This rare offering comes to this blog at the express request of AK ji. I remember that a while back, someone, maybe AK ji only, had sent a message that this song needs to be searched. At that time, the name of the female singer accompanying Mahendra Kapoor was not known with certainty, and some guesses were being suggested. Anyway, I received a message from AK ji yesterday night, asking whether this song is traceable. I reproduce his message below.

There was a wonderful Mahendar Kapoor song (a duet) in the late 60s/early70s: Teri zulf mein chunke champe ki kaliyaan, teri maang ko motiyon se sazaa dun/ Mera vash chale to ae jaane tamanna, tujhe main bahaaron ki malika bana dun from Jaan Bachi Laakho Paaye, composed by an unheard duo called Ajay-Vishwanath. Very popular on radio, but seems to have vanished. I am surprised that it Is not on YT. Any idea of the song?

Well, yes sir, AK ji, very much have the song and here it is being posted today at your request. 🙂
