Hullo Atuldom
I am super charged as I sit to write this post. I don’t know how to express my SURPRISE that the songs of this movie are yet to appear on the blog. I made a quick call to Atulji to confirm that this movie has not yet made its debut. I was making sure that it doesn’t appear under any other spelling. Atulji said that he is aware that it is yet to debut, so let us have it.
This 1980 release is a fantasy film based on a story from the Arabian Nights. Something that every child would have grown up reading, hence I am refraining from giving the story/ synopsis. I shall just say that this film had a generous dose of romance and romantic songs along with good quality action scenes. The film was an Indo-Soviet joint venture with the Uzbek director Latif Faiziyev and Indian director Umesh Mehra directing a set of Bollywood stars/actors and some Russian, Caucasian and Central Asian actors. Anand Bakshi and RD Burman were in charge of the songs that are popular till today and only three singers were used- Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar.
Before I present the song I would like to go into flashback with this song. That was to wish the actor Prem Chopra on his birthday. In there I had mentioned how his pairing with Rajesh Khanna was sure formula for success in the early 70s- he appeared in 19 movies as a co-actor of Rajesh Khanna.
Another actor with whom he was acceptable to the audiences was Dharmendra with whom he has appeared in around 30 films.
There are other actors with whom he has been regularly appreciated with and has done sizeable number of films – like 16 with Manoj Kumar, 24 with Amitabh Bachchan. I would like to know the count of films that Prem Chopra appeared, with respect to other prominent actors like Dev Anand, Jeetendra, Feroz Khan, Sunil Dutt, Rishi Kapoor etc. I know for sure that he has acted in 4 movies with his idol Dilip Kumar.
In my post of the 23rd September 2018, I had also mentioned how there were numerous songs where the heroines will sing love songs with the characters played by Chopra in order to get a response from the hero. Today’s song is similar to Kitna mazaa aa raha hai(Raja Jani)(1972) with a minor difference. Here we have the heroine dancing to the tunes of the hero. The ultimate aim being to rescue the girl from her predicament and an unwanted marriage with the wily Shamsher (Prem Chopra). Here the hero Alibaba (Dharmendra) has come as a Jadugar and has promised Shamsher that he will do some ‘mumbo-jumbo’ and get Marjina (Hema Malini) agree to his marriage proposal. For starters, the Jadugar gets Shamsher to dance and Marjina stands like a statue. But when she sees her lost ‘paayal’ (called ‘ghungroo’ in the song) she recognizes the Jadugar and joins him in the song-n-dance routine.
I have read in one of Prem Chopra’s interviews in the past, that he is scared of snakes and that he was petrified to shoot this song as the last stanza has a snake appearing out of nowhere. So possibly the priceless expression that he has given was not acting.
Prem Chopra has been a great supporting actor for almost 61 years. He began his career with a Punjabi film in 1960, followed by brief roles in ‘Hum Hindustani’, ‘Woh Kaun Thi’ etc. ‘Shaheed’ along side Manoj Kumar can be said to be his breakthrough film. ‘Upkaar’ and ‘Do Raaste’ also need to be mentioned as they presented him with different types of characters in spite of being Gray-shaded.It is well-known that he is connected to the Kapoor Khandaan as his wife and Raj Kapoor’s wife were sisters so that also makes him a brother-in-law to Prem Nath, Rajendra Nath and Narendra Nath.
Here is wishing this Tall and Handsome actor on his 86th birthday good health and lots of happiness.
Presenting ‘Alibaba aur 40 Chor’ (1980) on the blog, with this song, which I have written without hearing the video. After writing the lyrics I heard the song and found one error in what I had noted. I found that in all these years (41 years) I was singing this one line bas hadd kar di o bedardi wrong.

Lyrics
jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
o marjina naach haseena
mushkil kar de sab ka jeena
nahin toh
nahin toh
jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
o marjina naach haseena
mushkil kar de sab ka jeena
nahin toh
nahin toh
jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
naachegi teri jawaani
dekhegi duniya deewaani
har cheez hai mere bas mein
kya aag hai kya hai paani
o naachegi teri jawaani
dekhegi duniya deewaani
har cheez hai mere bas mein
kya aag hai kya hai paani
arre chhoomantar chhoo
dekh idhar tu
pehen le inko
le yeh ghunghroo
warna ghazab ho jaayega
ae jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
maana tujhe maine maana
tu jaadugar hai deewaana
bebas mujhe kar diya yoon
thhehra hai saara zamaana
ho o o
maana tujhe maine maana
tu jaadugar hai deewaana
bebas mujhe kar diya yoon
thhehra hai saara zamaana
bas hadd kar di o bedardi
batla kya hai teri marzi
kab tak mujhe tadpaayega
u u u u
ae jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
kismat kaa chamka sitaara
toone mujhe jab pukaara
chup-chaap tu naachti ja
jab tak karoon main ishaara
oooo
kismat kaa chamka sitaara
toone mujhe jab pukaara
chup-chaap tu naachti ja
jab tak karoon main ishaara
o o
tere kadmon mein ye sar hai
tu hai toh phir kis ka darr hai
jo hoga dekha jaayega
oooo ooo
aye jaadugar jadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
o marjina naach haseena
mushkil kar de sab ka jeena
nahin toh
nahin toh
jaadugar jaadoo kar jaayega
kisi ko samajh nahin aayega
