I have posted as many as three songs from “Mr X in Bombay” (1964) already in this blog. The other songs from this movie, which are not yet posted are also wonderful songs.

The initial line of this song may make people think of the title song from “Geet” (1970) which has similar words, and indeed one will come across that song on google search with these lyrics, but the song under discussion is an entirely different song and this song was created five years earlier than “Geet” (1970).

I have barely heard the name of this movie called “Menhdi Lagi Mere Haath”(1962). I plead not guilty for being unaware of this movie. My defence is that this movie had Shashi Kapoor and Nanda in lead roles and that is a strong enough reason for a normal movie to end up as an obscure movie.

“Sunahri Naagin” (1963) was clearly inspired from “Naagin” (1963) except that “Sunahri Naagin” (1963) was a B grade movie and did not enjoy even a fraction of the success of “Naagin” (1954).

I have posted a few songs from “Anand” (1970) in the past. I was not aware that I had not posted this song. there are so many nice songs in this movie that it is easy to lose track of these songs, This movie has outstanding songs sung by different singers.

Late 1960s was when Bollywood movie music was at its zenith. The quality and quantity of great songs those days was just mind boggling. Many great songs created those days found themselves to be marginalised and elbowed out in this stiff competition. No one has really chronicled all the great songs of those years, but I am sure that the number of such songs must be in several hundreds, if not in thousands.

I have listened to this song many times and liked it, but all this while I had no clue about its details. This is one of those songs that have gone on to get implanted on the psyche of those who grew up listening to this and other songs of those days.

Few people, including me have heard of this movie called “Apna Ghar Apni Kahani” (1968). This movie had come in an era when we had a glut of classy songs, and I do not recall ever listening to songs of this movie. Not that I could have been able to identify the songs as belonging to this movie, had I heard the songs then.
