I have posted a few songs from 1950s and 1960s which featured Kumkum. She never made it to the top, but that does not mean that she was not good. It is just that she was confined to C grade movies most of the time, just as Chitragupta found himself confined to composing music for C grade movies.

“Oonche log” (1965), not to be confused with “Oonche log” (1985) was an interesting movie which had no role for females. The supposed leading lady of the movie hardly had any role or dialogues in the movie. I cannot understand the reason behind such misogyny on the part of the makers of this movie.

Jodi hamaari jamega kaise jaani

This song from “Aulaad” is a long standing farmaish of Raja, but all these days I had been hampered from posting it because its video is not available. After searching for its video and drawing a blank, I took its audio clip and I decided to present this song with the picture of Chitragupta, the music director of this movie and indeed of this song.

Jaag dil-e-deewanaa

This is a “new” song for me, though it is from a 1965 movie called “Oonche Log”. The lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri are heavy duty Urdu stuff, which are difficult to decipher. But knowing Majrooh Saab, it must surely mean something profound.

I stumbled upon this song from a forgotten movie called “Aulaad”. What a song for nostalgia buffs this turns out to be ! This song is sung by Rafi under the music direction of Chitragupta ( father of Anand Milind) and Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist.

1968, the titanium year of Bollywood movie music had so many great songs that a sizeable number of such songs struggled to get into the popularity bandwagon. Many great songs found themselves forgotten without getting the chance to be heard by the audience.

Itni nazuk na bano

Chitragupta was a music director who was always on the fringes of mainstream movies. Most of the time he would give music for C grade movies viz mythological movies, stunt movies etc, and such movies alongwith their music failed to make much impression with mainstream Bollywood audience.

It is one of the most moving songs of all time. It was the first sad song that I became aware of as a very young child. I witnessed a real life situation in which two brothers had a fight. A few days later,the younger brother left the home forever, never to return. He had left a note informing his elder brother about his decision. The note also contained words of this song- “chal ud ja re panchi ke ab ye desh hua began..” Whenever I hear this song, I am reminded of that real life incident.
