As Tapori songs go, this was creme de la creme of its genre which I liked a lot in 1970s. And guess what, I forgot all about this song. That is, till two days ago, when I accidentally stumbled upon this song again.And this time I realised that the song was from “Anokhi Ada”, the movie from which I have posted two songs already !

I stumbled upon this song from a forgotten movie called “Aulaad”. What a song for nostalgia buffs this turns out to be ! This song is sung by Rafi under the music direction of Chitragupta ( father of Anand Milind) and Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist.

When two people fall in love, it is the boy that is traditionally supposed to take the initiative and the girl has to wait for that initiative to come, which often never comes, if the boy is someone like Amol Palekar in Bollywood movies of 1970s.

When it comes to train songs, S D Burman and R D Burman ruled the roost. Right from “Solva Saal” in 1957 till “Zamaane Ko Dikhaana Hai” in 1981, I can count nearly a dozen or so wonderful train songs composed by the two Burmans.

This song is the title song of the movie called “Badalte Rishtey”. And this song also happens to be perhaps the best known and most popular song from this movie. This song is picturised in a typical Reena Roy fashion, viz it is a song sung by her in a party/ get together, just like Dharmendra used to do in 1960s.Rishi Kapoor and later Jeetendra also join her in singing this song.

I have posted many Mukesh solo songs in this blog, and most of them were “sad” songs of different denominations and varieties. This particular song is a duet, and moreover, it is not a sad song. So here is a Mukesh song, sung with Lata from “Dharti Kahe Pukaar ke” that can surely qualify to be called a gem.

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.

Kisi raah mein kisi modpar

I have posted different kind of songs in this blog. There is one big category of songs which are sung atop some mode of transportation viz car, train, boat etc. I have noticed that Jeetendra, the jumping jack takes the cake when it comes to singing songs atop different modes of transportation. In addition to the usual modes of man made transportations, he has sung song atop less obvious modes of transportation too. For instance, there was one Jeetendra song sung atop an elephant. I am sure he must have sung songs riding a horse also. He may have missed singing while riding buffalo and donkey though.
