The year is 1948, and the film name – ‘Mala, The Mighty’. The name sounds like a Nadia film. Well, almost. It is a Basant Pictures production directed by John Cowas, but the leading lady is Leela and not Nadia. But any way, a stunt film in the late 1940s, and it is a fair chance that the music director will be Chitragupt. Yes, you got it right.

This is one more duet by Mohammed Rafi and Geeta Dutt from the film ‘Chunariya’ (1948). Music Director is Hansraj Behl and lyricist is Mulkraj Bhakri. Four songs of this film are already posted in the blog and none of them are having video links. The songs of this film are specially poignant with these two solos by Lata and Rafi, viz. Dil e nashaad ko jeene ki hasrat ho gayee tumse and Sab kuchh lutaayaa hamne aakar teri gali mein. The song I am discussing also just has an audio link. But from the tone of the song I can guess that it is a ‘ beggar’s song ‘. The words are not really begging but the composition is such that it can not fit any other situation.
