Today’s song is from an absolutely unknown film, Laaj-1946.
The film was directed by 3 people – Shehzada Ayyaz, Syed Munawwar and H.Qasim, under the banner of Ayyaz productions, Bombay- probably owned by one of the directors. The music was given by Ramchandra Pal and the cast was Shamim, Radha Rani,Ramesh, H.Prakash, Rajan, Rehana, Master Nissar and others.
I had never heard of this film, let alone seeing it. This was because neither the film nor any of its songs were famous. Even the cast did not boast of any of the famous or popular stars of that time. Only one of the cast members attracted the attention and that was the old time hero Master Nissar.
I tried hard to know more about this film but was not able to get anything. Then I wrote to Shri Harmandir Singh Hamraz ji and he, very kindly, promptly sent me the photograph of the film’s booklet. Thanks to Hamraz ji for this.

Today (9 August 2025) is Rakshabandhan. Incidentally, Rakshabandhan was the first festival for this blog when this blog began on 19 July 2008. On that year, Rakshabandhan was on 16 August 2008, one day after Independence day. Chosing an appropriate song for the occasion was a no brainer for me. I had covered the iconic Rakshabandhan song, bhaiyya mere raakhi ke bandhan ko nibhaana. That post turned out to be a “game changer” for the blog as the blog received visitors in three digits on that day for the first time. That was a breakthrough for the blog as it began to get noticed by more and more music lovers.
We have been covering rakshabandhan related songs on all Rakshabandhan days. There have been 17 such occasions on the blog so far. All the well known rakshabandhan songs have already been covered by now. 26 Rakshabandhan related songs have been covered on these 17 occasions.
Today, on the occasion of the 18th Rakshabandhan day (9 August 2025) for the blog, here is a lesser known Raksha bandhan song. This song is from “Pyaar Ka Rishtaa”(1973).

Hullo Atuldom
“Kasme Vaade” (1978) was produced and directed by Ramesh Behl under his ROSE MOVIES banner. It was Ramesh Behl’s first as director. The songs were written by Gulshan Bawra & composed by R. D. Burman. Asha Bhosle, Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Amit Kumar, Mohd Rafi, Anand Kumar C. & Pancham (R.D. Burman) were the playback singers for the 8 songs. Of the 8 songs two songs (‘aati rahengi bahaarein’ & ‘kasme vaade nibhaayenge hum’) were multi version songs.
The film had Rakhee, Neetu Singh, Amitabh Bachchan, Randhir Kapoor in the main lead with Rekha in a guest appearance and Amjad Khan in special appearance.
Master Bhagwan (Dada) was there for one song at the start of the film. That song was meant to show the happy-go-lucky character of Randhir Kapoor. Also we had Vijayendra Ghatge in a brief role as spoilt-brat-college student.
