In this short write-up, I present the last song, ‘aaya hoon gharbaar chhod main ban ne filmi star’ to be covered on the Blog from an obscure film, ‘Bahke Kadam’ (1971). The song is written by Dharmesh Dutt which is set to music by Usha Khanna. The film was produced and directed by Dharmesh Dutt who also acted in the film and wrote the songs. The cast included Agha, Aprajita, Dharmesh Dutt, Madan Puri, Jagirdar, Sundar, Mridula, Sulochana, Kanu Roy etc. This appears to be the only film of Dharmesh Dutt as a producer, director, actor and song writer. The VCD/DVD of the film is not available on any video sharing platform.
The song under discussion is rendered by Mohammed Rafi. Since video clip of the song is not available, I can only make a guess based on the lyrics that the song may have been picturised on Agha. Two features of this song are that in the last stanza, suddenly the mukhda part of the song, ‘dil dekhe dekho’ gets incorporated. Incidentally, the old song was also rendered by Mohammed Rafi and set to music by Usha Khanna.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee has been known to make the family-oriented and ‘slice of the life’ types of films such as ‘Anuradha. (1960), ‘Anupama’ (1966), ‘Aashirwaad’ (1968), ‘Satyakam’ (1969), ‘Anand’ (1970), ‘Guddi’ (1971) and many more. When the film, ‘Sabse Bada Sukh’ (1972) was announced to be produced and directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, it became a topic of discussion in the film magazines at that time because it was a sex comedy which was a departure from the usual theme of his films. It was a low budget film probably because Hrishikesh Mukherjee was taking a risk of experimenting with a story which was out of his comfort zone. The cast included Vijay Arora, Faiyyaz, Robi Ghosh, Naarghita, Rajnibala, Utpal Dutt, Asrani, Keshto Mukherjee, Tarun Ghosh, Meena Rai etc.

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet #

Today I am presenting a song from the 1977 movie ‘Aanand Aashram’. It was directed by Shakti Samanta for his home productions ‘Shakti Films’. I had earlier presented a song from this movie on this blog on 14.01.2023. This song is ‘jab chaaho chalee aaoongee’. I had not watched this movie till then, but I did always remember the two well-known songs from this movie i.e. ‘raahee naye naye rastaa nayaa nayaa’ and ‘saaraa pyaar tumhaaraa maine baandhh liyaa hain aanchal mein’. So, when I presented the third song from this movie I had also gone through the remaining songs from this movie and some parts of this movie. I am always fascinated by the movies coming from the Bengali directors and those which are based on the literary works of the writers coming from Bengal. I have a great admiration for the arts, culture, theatre and films coming from that part of our country. I always had this movie on the back of my mind and that is the reason for this post today.

Some years ago, I did start to write post of some colourful songs, shot outdoors. There are so many of them in hindi films, especially in colour movies, that they are countless. I have a weakness for scenic waterfalls, mountains, lakes, snow peaks, rivers, huge trees etc.
Today, I have dropped two posts in preparation, as I realized belatedly that they are posted. One had Dharmendra and other had Vinod Mehra, incidentally, singing Rafi solos, in Kashmir.
In my posts of the song “Jiya Jiya Re” (Jab Tak hai Jaan) I have mentioned that there must be reels and reels of footage shot of mountains, rivers of naturally beautiful locations in Kashmir, which were not used. For photographers would not be able to resist. In fact in one of the songs mentioned above, they had used shot visuals in the song, without the actors actually going there and shooting for the song. The shots looked like amalgamated with the actors singing in greenery.

Today I present a ‘sensuous-seduction’ song by Asha Bhonsle sung for the movie ‘Gumraah-1976’. As mentioned earlier this movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time but it has now been made available on internet.
Our dear Satyajit jee has mentioned about the story of the movie in brief while presenting a song from this movie on the blog.
