“Anokhi Ada” to me was a movie of 1970s starring Jeetendra and Vinod Khanna, but I came to know that there was another movie of this name in 1948 too. Why did these oldtimers choose the same name as a new movie and then had some boring music in that- this is what I used to think in 1970s.

As Tapori songs go, this was creme de la creme of its genre which I liked a lot in 1970s. And guess what, I forgot all about this song. That is, till two days ago, when I accidentally stumbled upon this song again.And this time I realised that the song was from “Anokhi Ada”, the movie from which I have posted two songs already !

When two people fall in love, it is the boy that is traditionally supposed to take the initiative and the girl has to wait for that initiative to come, which often never comes, if the boy is someone like Amol Palekar in Bollywood movies of 1970s.

I was under the impression that Kishore Kumar, who sang almost all varieties of songs, never sang a qawwaali, and that the closest to a qawwali that he sang was “kabhi bekhudi ne maara” from “alag alag”. Now I stand corrected. Kishore Kumar did sing at least one proper qawwaali and it was in a 1973 movie called ” Anokhi Ada”. And it was quite a popular qawwali too. I wonder how this fact had slipped from my mind.

This song is a very special song. Not only is it the oldest song (1948) posted in this blog so far , this is one song that very few people may have heard. This song was composed for the movie “Anokhi Ada” (1948). As many bollywood music fans may be aware, this movie was a musical blockbuster full of memorable songs.
This particular song was excluded from the movie at the editing stage. As a result, this song died an untimely death, and people forgot all about it.
