Mukesh and his NFS – 05

Sometime back, I had written about Mukesh’s collaboration with composer Lachhiram Tomar. Here is the said post.

As detailed in the post a 33 second couplet as a background rendition on a female character was all that Mukesh sang for the composer in films. The rendition remains uncredited in the film.

I have already covered the composer and his works with Mukesh in the abovementioned post. As such, this post is being continued in my other series on NFS. Needless to say, the post has to be read in conjunction with my earlier post on Lachhiram.

Today’s song is from a very old film- 87 year old- Baaghbaan-1938.

The film was directed by A.R.Kardar, for whom it was his first film as a director, in Bombay. The film had music by Mushtaq Hussain, who had an assistant called Naushad Ali from Lucknow. In the later years Naushad became a successful and very famous composer. Baaghbaan-38 had music by Mushtaq Hussain, who was considered an Ustaad in Classical Music in those days. Naushad, who became a well known Music Director later was assistant to Mushtaq Hussain in Baaghbaan and Industrial India-1938. Hussain started with Aurat ka pyar-1933 and went on to give music to films like, Step Mother, Balaa ki Raat, Zalzalaa, Bhedi trishul, Baaghbaan, Industrial India, Pati patni, Kkanyadaan etc, a total of about 30 films.

(Asha Bhonsle’s 92nd birthday 8th September 2025)

Today 8th September 2025 is the ninety-third birthday of legendary singer of Hindi Films – Asha Bhonsle. On this occasion we are celebrating her birthday by presenting some songs sung by her.

The song which I am presenting in this post is from the 1986 movie ‘Jeeva’. This movie is best remembered for the classic song ‘roz roz aankhon taley’ composed by R.D.Burman, written by Gulzar and sung by Asha Bhonsle and Amit Kumar. Various stories on internet about this song mention that initially it was supposed to be a solo song by Asha Bhonsle. But on listening to this song Sanjay Dutt felt that he should also have lines to lip-sync in this song, and thus an extra stanza sung by Amit Kumar was added to this song.
