Ham ne jo tum ko salaam kiya

Sizzlers of the 60s – the phrase brings a handful of names to the mind. Of course, we have Helen and Bela Bose. And there are some performances by Aruna Irani, Laxmi Chhaaya. But talking of performances worthy of burning down the projection screens, the one name that you cannot do without is Faryal. This fairy queen of cabaret was a strong contender for the number two spot behind Helen, for long years in the 60s and 70s.

Atul is aware that this particular cabaret song and dance is one of my favorites, performed by the very lithe and graceful Faryal. It contains most of the peculiarly Indian cabaret traits that make me love them so: male background dancers, a fake Sheikh or two, a Boss lurking in silhouette, and a lively band clad in frilly outfits. So how perfect for it to be the 4700th song posted on this brilliant blog!
