It was one of the most talked about films, may be because of its special effect scenes.

Today’s song is from the film Hatimtai-56.
Among older generations, reading books, novels etc, other than the school Text books, was considered a gateway to general knowledge and an aid to develop an impressive personality. As times changed, I think this habit has diminished with every new generation and today I find that students do not read anything ( not even Newspapers-except sports and films section) other than school or college syllabus and Guide books. Their general knowledge is below par in most cases. I do not blame them, because the education system in our country has been modelled on such lines that students will only read what brings them more marks. Nothing else. They have no time left for general reading due to college and classes. Additionally parents too encourage only this – not general reading…out of helplessness ! Of course their intelligence and skills have not diminished but have different openings suitable for today’s life-struggle.

Bedard maine tujh ko bhulaaya nahin hanooz

Dil se tera khayaal na jaaye to kya karoon
Main kya karoon koi na bataaye to kya karoon

Both these ghazals have been written in the same metre expressing almost the same sentiments. I have no idea as to which one of them was written first. But these ghazals have become a source of inspiration for writing lyrics for songs in Hindi films for situations like ‘broken heart’, separation from the beloved etc.

With ASAD covering 11K + songs till date, finding a new song to present, also having a link/sound track to attach, becomes more and more involved/difficult task for a contributor. I am sure one of the simple joys for the contributors must be (I am only a new entrant to the tribe) to locate one. And, if it happens to be a popular song it is an icing on the cake.
Here I am with such a joyful find. Like others have expressed it at times: “How come this song has escaped being presented?”
