(Debutant Movie-‘Double Cross-1938’)
Today I am presenting a song from a movie of 1938. Regulars on this blog will be surprised to see a write-up from me presenting a song from a movie which is around eighty-seven years old. I have been sharing older songs but this must be the oldest of them. I had come across this song more than a year back.
This song is from the movie ‘Double Cross’ from the year 1938. Most of us are aware of the movie titled ‘Double Cross-1977’. This movie of 1977 has a song that is part of my childhood and I had shared that song on this blog. Adding songs from movies with same title is one of my missions, and that is the reason for this post as well. With this post ‘Double Cross’ of 1938 joins the ‘Double Cross’ of ‘1977 🙂 on the blog.
“Double Cross-1938” was directed by M. Bhawnani for ‘Bhawnani Productions, Bombay’. M. Bhawnani was also the story writer of this movie. The cast of this movie had Bimla Kumari, S.B. Nayampalli, Faity (Fatty?) Prasad, Ameena, David, Kishore, A.S. Gyani, R. Dilawar, Master Hussain, Rai Mohan and others. This movie has eight songs as listed in Geet Kosh Vol-I (1931-1940). However the lyricists name is not known for this movie. Music for this movie was composed by Pt Badri Prasad and Walter Coffman was the ‘orchestra organizer’(as mentioned in Geet Kosh). Singer’s names for all the eight songs are mentioned in Geet Kosh. They are Gauhar (Bikaner), Bimla Kumari, Bashir Qawwaal, Faity Prasad, and Ameena.
It will be interesting to know if all songs from this movie can be located. So far, only this song is available. It is a duet song and one of the oldest example of a ‘nok-jhonk’ song.
Let us now listen to this song. The man likens himself to vegetables and likens his sweetheart to sweets. 🙂 Faity Prasad and Ameena are the singers of this song. Lyricist is not known whereas music is composed by Pt Badri Prasad.
I was not able to note correct words at some places.I would request knowledgeable readers to kindly suggest the correct words at those places.
Only audio of the song is available. Seeing that the singers had also acted in the movie, one can guess that the song was picturised on themselves in the movie.
With this song, let us welcome ‘Double Cross-1938’ on this blog !!!

Lyrics
suno pyaaree ee
suno pyaaree ee
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
suno pyaaree ee suno pyaaree ee
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

???
agar pahle main kathal thhaa to
ab main rah gayaa bhaataa
chalaa do prem pichkaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
bukhaar aayaa hai mujhko prem kaa
ae jaan meree pyaaree
tere paanee chhidakne se
huyee hai aur bedaaree
na kar aashiq kee tu khvaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
hua King kong hai
Shaitaaan yaa ulloo gadhaa hai tu
manaa karne pe bhee jo
sar ko mere kha rahaa hai tu
naa karnaa mujhse hoshiyaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
meree chamcham
meree barfee
meree revdee
meree paapad
agar tujhko sataaun main to
de denaa mujhe jhaapad
banaanaa meree ???kaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
ye sun lo phir
mere nanhe se dil ko gar sataaoge
banegee khub gat apne kee
ye ki aap paaoge
jab aayegee meree baaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa
suno pyaaree ee
suno pyaaree ee
zaraa aahistaa
aahistaa
(laughters)
