This song from “Holi Aayi re” appeared as a solo as well as a duet in the movie. The solo song sung by Mukesh is the one that became more popular and I too like the solo song more.
Mukesh, as usual, paints a vivid picture of the feelings that the lyrics of indeewar seek to convey. The way his voice can almost make you enter the mind of the character and visualise what is going through there is simply amazing. There were those who said that Mukesh was classically not trained, but such people miss the real fact. The fact is, Mukesh’s ability to express different feelings in all their nuances was simply awesome and that was the reason why majority of his songs struck a chord with the listeners.

Rajesh Khanna was just beginning his bull run as a superstar in late 1960s. Safar was one of the earlier movies of that time. That era coincided with an even bigger bull run begun by Kishore Kumar as a singer and R D Burman as music director. But the shape of things to come could not have been predicted from this movie. Here Mukesh sings for Feroz Khan ( yes, this Rajesh Khanna movie had Feroz Khan too ) and Kalyanji Anandji scores the music. One year later, it would all be about Rajesh Khanna, Kishore Kumar and R D Burman in a Rajesh Khanna movie.

As timepass songs go, this must qualify as among the very best timepass songs of all time. The public at that time certainly enjoyed it, as shown by its Binaca geetmala ranking of number 4 in the Binaca geetmala final of 1970.
The topic of the song is an interesting one. Manoj Kumar is a country bumpkin and two girls decide to play matchmakers for him, and show him diferent girls. But Gangaram, our village bumpkin finds himself under severe culture shock on watching the modern girls of 1970, and expresses his disapproval in no uncertain way.

Young kids growing up in India learn as much of their vocabulary from family members and friends as from Bollywood movies and songs. I learnt the meaning of “ladki pasand karna” for the first time when I heard my mother advising her brother (mama for me) to get married ( “Shaadi kar lo. Koi ladki pasand kar lo”).
As if on cue, this song ” maine ek ladki pasand kar li” started blaring on loudspeakers after a few days. And thanks to my newfound knowledge ( gained by overhearing my mother), I knew the meaning of the phrase “ladki pasand kar li”.

This was one song that I found extremely romantic on its day. The lyrics say it all, and say it directly, no beating about the bush. And as a kid not even in my teens, I certainly loved such direct approach.
It was supposed to be a timepass song, but I like this song even today. This song shows that even such songs which are not aiming for immortality could become memorable if they are carefully crafted. Those were the days when Rajesh Khanna was on his ascendancy, and whatever he touched, turned to gold, and this movie “Aan Milo Sajna” was no exception.

It is a movie that has long been forgotten , but this movie was lit up by this one awesome comedy song sung and performed on the screen by the one and only Kishore Kumar. It is a tremendous comedy song written by that lesser known lyricist Qamar Jalalabadi and composed so well by Kalyanji Anandji. Kishore Kumar has sung and acted with characteristic exuberance in this song.
It is my privilege to present this hidden gem that deserves to be ranked as one of the unforgettable comedy songs from Kishore Kumar. Kishore Kumar, the genius is at his best here while singing as well as acting. This song, though largely forgotten now was ranked 4th in 1971 Binaca geetmala finals. It was that popular in its days.
