When Helen appears on the screen, a very automatic thought that crosses the mind is – the playback singer will be Asha Bhosle. Such is the association between the two, that across the decades, most of the Helen dance songs have been crooned by Asha ji. But yes, there are other playback singers also that have sung for Helen on screen, and it will be an interesting category by itself – ‘non Asha Bhosle songs of Helen’. As I was searching for a special song for this post, it is completely by chance that I came across this wonderful peppy number, a Helen mujra song, sung by Usha Timothy. I heard it for the first time last night, and it is one of those matters of falling in love on the first hear.

So here is the ‘S’ alphabet song I talked about in my last post on ‘R’ song. It is a Rafi solo with two versions, one happy and one sad, from the movie “Jhuk gayaa aasmaan”. Such a musical blockbuster film starring Rajendra Kumar and Saira Bano. And wherever I was looking for Rafi sahab’s songs in the list with S-J’s music they were all in red. I could not believe my luck when I found that this song was not posted.

Here is the “P” song in the A-Z of Rafi songs series. This is a semi classical solo song composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal in the film ‘Waapas” (1969). The lyricist of this song is the venerable poet Majrooh Sultabpuri. It is Majrooh’s birth anniversary today on 1st October, I have come to realise just now.

In 1946, the renowned Ghulam Haider took a very young 18 year old girl to Filmistan Studio, to introduce her to S Mukherjee. The young girl went through a voice audition for the big boss of Filmistan, who summarily rejected her, saying that her voice was too thin, without depth and without range. A disappointed Ghulam Haider had remarked to S Mukherjee, that he would one day regret this decision, and the world will know the capabilities of this artist.
