Since all the songs from this movie have been covered and the movie has achieved ‘Yippeeee’ status on the blog one would genuinely ask the question why this post now? and which song??

As I have mentioned in my earlier post with the ‘couplet song’ “Aap Abhi Ishq Ki Tehzeeb Se Aagaah Nahin” from ‘Dil Hi To Hai’ (1963), that I had prepared an excel sheet for Sahir and his music directors with the number of songs in the movies where Sahir Ludhianvi was lyricist. During the preparation of this list I had to go through the HFGK Vol II to VI and check the movie page for each movie. There I had noted some corrections and other interesting information. Accordingly, we are in the process of correcting some ‘tags’ for lyrics and adding some ‘snippets’, or ‘couplet songs’ wherever they are available and we can bring them here on the blog.

In the movie page for ‘Sone Ki Chidiya’ in HFGK Vol III, there is a footnote which mentions about a ‘nazm’ penned by Kaifi Azmi recited in his own voice in the movie (which on screen is lip synced by none other than Balraj Sahni). When I searched for audio/video of this ‘poem’ it was already available and that is the reason for this post here today.

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

‘Monihar’ (‘Jeweled Neckless’, 1966, Bangla film) was directed by Salil Sen. The main cast included Soumitra Chatterjee, Biswajeet, Sandhya Roy, Kamal Mitra, Pahadi Sanyal, Chhaya Devi etc. The film is available on a video sharing site with English sub-titles. The film belongs to the genre of the musical family drama and is about two brothers who share a cordial relationship yet there are misunderstandings regarding the financial matters as well as their likings for the same girl. Yet there is no villainous attitude towards each other. And this is the highlight of the film. This is one more among Bangla films which has got the theme of declining influence of aristocracy in Bengal during the British rule.

Hullo to all atulites

In the euphoria to celebrate the blogs 10th anniversary with an appropriate post last week I missed out on a few anniversaries, occasions for which I always try and send a special song. I just realised that 18th July is the anniversary of another favourite. So here is a song for the occasion.

But I think, we can have a song featuring one in a movie in which the other is the main lead. The two actors I was thinking of combining are Rajesh Khanna and Sanjeev Kumar.
