Ek cheez maangte hain

Early years of 1970s saw a trend ( short lived though) where we had some songs where the the lyrics were quite direct. I call such songs as “straight talk” songs, where there is no beating about the bush. I have already posted a few such “straight talk” songs, for example “dil machal raha hai” from “Khalifa”.

I may regard myself as a bollywood music buff, espdecially of songs circa 1970 or so. But there are still songs from that era which I never heard when they were first released.

I had listened to this song quite often in Radio Ceylon “aaphi ke geet” programme , which was a farmaishi programme catering to listeners from Jhumri Tilaiyya and elsewhere. But I do not think this song became particularly popular in Binaca geetmala or with those plying records on loudspeakers during those days of 1974. In fact, I was not even aware which movie this song was from.

In 1970s, Rajesh Khanna was the reigning male superstar whereas Hema Malini was the dream girl. But the two hardly paired with each other. Rajesh Khanna was mainly paired with Mumtaz and Sharmila Tagore, whereas the pairing of Dharmendra and Hema Malini was taken for granted those days.

Ae dile nadaan aarzoo kya hai
Posted on: October 14, 2008
This movie, a historical movie, was adjusted as boring by janta, and they kept away. Songs of this movie did marginally better, though they were by no means Binaca geetmala chart busting songs.

We tend to discuss great songs from the past and go overboard discussing about the great message, great quality of melody, music, lyrics, voice etc contained in the songs. Here is one such song which has absolutely no pretentions of any kind about being a great song. It is a totally timepass song.
