Tum sang preet lagaayi rasiyaa

“New Delhi”(1956) is a movie that I find interesting. This movie had Kishore Kumar and Vyjyanti Mala in lead roles. This movie is interesting because it shows New Delhi as it was more than fifty years ago. Many important landmarks that we take for granted today in New Delhi were non existent at that time, as we can see from watching this movie.

Beimaan baalmaa maan bhi jaa

This is a song from “Ham Sab Chor Hain” (1956). It is a movie where Shammi Kapoor( of his pre Shammi mannerisms days) is seen with Nalini Jaiwant. From the picturisation, it seems that Nalini Jaiwant enters Shammi Kapoor’s room without his permission and policemen look at her suspiciously. She calls for Shammi Kapoor (beimaan baalma). When he turns up, the policemen are satisfied and go away. Shammi Kapoor ofcourse wants nothing of her and he tries to throw her out even though she has not yet completed her singing. The protocol in Bollywood songs is, one waits for the song to end before one throws the singer out. 😉

What a comic genius Kishore Kumar was ! I have posted several Kishore Kumar gems where he sang and enacted superb comic scenes. Songs from “Adhikaar”, “Miss Mary”, “Half Ticket”, “Padosan” etc readily come to mind.
