This is one of my favourite songs from a film I like very much-Funtoosh-1956.
When this film was being advertised, there was quite a curiosity about the meaning of the word FANTOOSH. We had never heard this word- especially in the Non-Hindi belt- and no one knew what it meant. In those days, there was no Internet to find out. I was in college and we used to discuss about this word, advocating our guesses.

Searching for and finding rarities in the world of music, is a keen and interesting pursuit. The Hindi film songs have so many variants attached to their existence. Songs that appear in film, but are not released elsewhere. Songs that are on records but not included in the film. Version songs – the official song in the film and on the record, is also available on record in the voice of a different singer. This case is different from the same song sung by more than one singer and included in the film. Then we have the variations between the song published on record and the song as picturized in the film.

In my younger days, the name of the film FUNTOOSH (1956) sounded to me a bit bizarre. I had also heard people using this Hinglish lingo as adjectives in different context. I had no occasion to watch this movie but judging (or misjudging) from the name of the film, I thought that it was a comedy movie and the song ‘ye meri topi palat ke aah’ was a pointer to that. It was only later when I heard ‘dukhi man mere’ I felt that the film was of a different genre.

With this post I am requesting Atul ji to add a new and peculiar category to this blog. This is a song sung on a ‘thhelaa’; and as far as I can recall, this is the only ‘thhelaa’ song in Hindi movies.

I had been thinking of posting this song for at least one year, if not more. But somehow I was not able to bridge the gap between intention and implementation. One reason was that I was not able to get the lyrics right to my satisfaction. In addition to understandable words, this song also has gibberish (which could well be words in some other languages) that I was unable to note down correctly.

It was Music director S D Burman who gave Kishore Kumar the chance of singing for the then matinee idol Dev Anand starting from Baazi (1951), and how well Kishore Kumar responded to the opportunity.
He did a good job, and that enabled him to get a foothold on the industry as a playback singer, singing for Dev Anand, the then heart throb of millions.
