Today’s song is the last and the final song from the film Sunehre Din-1949. The film made by Jagat Pictures was directed by Satish Nigam and the music was by Gyan Dutt. The cast of the film included Rehana, Raj Kapoor, Nigar Sultana, Haroon, Heera Sawant, Ramesh Sinha and others.

The songs of this film were quite enchanting and a few of them became very popular. Especially the solo song “Baharon ne jise chheda” by Mukesh and the duet “Maine dekhi jag ki reet ” by Mukesh and Shamshad Begum are heard even today by song lovers – which includes me too ! For the film’s 10 songs, Gyan Dutt had used 8 singers like Geeta Roy, Shamshad Begum, Sulochana Kadam, Kalyani, Mukesh, Khan Mastana, Durrani and Surinder Kaur. Today’s song is by Surinder Kaur.

In this short write-up, I present a duet song, ‘gulaabi nazaare nazaare gulaabi’ rendered by Mohammed Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur from an obscure film, ‘Lakhpati’ (1991). It was the only film produced and directed by Jal Baliwala. The film was certified by Censor Board on April 5, 1991, but it could not get the theatrical release. Later, the film was released on VCD. I have given the story of the film in my earlier article while covering the song, nashe mein choor nazar hai mujhe.

The musical composition of at least three songs including the one under discussion gives a feel of the golden period of Hindi film music of 1960s and I am not completely off the mark. Music director, Iqbal Qureshi came into prominence in the 1960s. Lata Mangeshkar was not singing with Mohammed Rafi in most part of 1960s. The song under discussion is a duet of Rafi with Suman Kalyanpur.

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.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

In this post I am presenting a song from the 1948 movie ‘Aap Beeti’. Geet Kosh spells this movie as ‘Aap Biti’ and that may also be the case for the Censor Certificate of this movie. I do not remember if I have ever heard any song from this movie earlier. Two songs from this movie are available on this blog.

‘Aap Beeti-1948’ was directed by Kumar for ‘Kumar Studios Limited, Bombay’. It had Khursheed, Kumar, E. Bilimoria, Agha, Leela Mishra, Pramila, Mehndi Raza, Agha Peer Jaan, Hameed, Shabnam, Girdhari, Chandrakala, Hainak, Afroz Bano and Indira Acharya and others. This movie has nine songs which were composed to music by Hari Bhai.

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 9

This is a group song from the film ‘Saathiya” (2002), written by Gulzar. The singers are Richa Sharma, Mahalakshmi Iyer and Vaishali Shoma. Recently another song from this film is posted as post no. 7 of the series.

The lyrics of “Chhalka chhalka re” were waiting in drafts for some days now. But I thought will post the wedding songs later, exactly what is the reason for the other song going before this is the Sonu Nigam factor and the natural scenery plus the colourful. Also, once the words registered, they just had to be dissected for what they said and meant.

The star cast here is Rani Mukherji, Vivek Oberoi, Tanuja, Satish Shah, Sharat Saxena, Swaroop Sampat, Virendra Saxena, Sandhya Mridul etc. Most of these actors are visible in the song, except for Satish Shah. Rani Mukherji’s cousin is getting married, and Vivek Oberoi is part of the baraat as the groom’s friend.

This film was the Hindi remake of the hit Tamil film “Alaipayuthey” (2000), directed by Mani Ratnam. All A.R. Rahman compositions from the original film were reused in this film, except for “Naina Milaay Ke” and “Mainda Yaar Mila De Saaiyan”, which were new compositions.

The bride’s emotions in the tears flowing from her eyes, are stated as ‘Chhalka Chhalka re kalsi ka paani”. Different way of expression, as are some other terms in the song.

In the middle of the song, in between the playful antics between the bridal party and groom’s friends, Vivek Oberoi is trying to find out Rani Mukherji’s name. He bumps into the father and asks him for Rani’s name. The father says “Ladke, baaraat mein aaye ho warna tumko paraat mein daal ke goondh detaa”. I have never heard such threats.

Years ago, when my son was young, once he watched me making the dough. He was standing beside me watching with fascination. I still remember him saying “aata akela hogayaa”. I said “akelaa nahin ek ho gayaa”. Different way of seeing and understanding. The flour is, we don’t know comes from which wheat, from which field and here it comes to us in the flour form. We mix it with water, and it becomes one, several lakh different seeds. Only to get separated / divided and cooked in different chapatis.

Great, this Gulzariology is adversely affecting me, 😊.

It is another one of critically acclaimed songs by A. R. Rehman.
