The moment we see the caption for this song “woh din yaad karo, woh din yaad karo ” the mind somehow produced the image of Mehmood and Shobha Khote singing this. I dont know how it happened to me, because I dont remember seeing this song before. I havent seen this movie either. This song was frequently played on vividh bharati. May be my mother had told me that this was a Mehmood -Shobha Khote song, and the information was stored somewhere in the deep recesses. Similar thing happened the other day with ‘Ajahun na aaye baalma saawan beeta jaaye”. This song from ‘Saanjh aur Savera’ has roughly the same team of Mehmood-Shobha, with only S. Kalyanpur replacing Lata. It is a classical, sort of jugalbandi song. When I saw the video I knew I had seen it on T.V. in “Chhaayageet ” or “Chitrahaar”.

“Ganga Jamuna” (1961) is a movie that I tend to cinfuse with “Ram Aur Shyam”(1967) all the time. Both movies had Dilip Kumar in them, and both movies had the same musical team, and that is the reason for my confusion.

What a delightful song this is ! I have never heard this song before today. And luckily the picturization is as appealing as the audio. This is a stage song from film Ek Nazar, written by Rajendra Krishan and composed by S. D. Burman, master of duets in my humble opinion. The fact of this being a Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi duet is added bonus as i was looking for a duet by these two to discuss.

Ae dard e jigar fariyaad na kar

I became aware of the movie when farmaish for a song of this movie was given by a reader some two years back. The reader had mentioned the movie as “Banu” which was a typo and as a result my search was delayed. Finally I located the song. Being able to home in on this elusive song gave me tremendous satisfaction. That song was the first song from this movie to be posted in this blog. Subsequently I have discussed two more songs from this movie.

I have been thinking for the last few days that it is high time that I make a serious attempt to do a write up. More than 200 song lyrics (Provided) by me are already posted here. When I found this blog in January last year, it was like I found heaven on the net. I was just sorry that 3000 plus songs were already discussed and I had found it so late. By then I was almost cut off from old hindi films, since I was engrossed in life’s issues and challenges. Radio channels like vividh bharati and All India Radio (Urdu Service), once my best friends, were a thing of the past that no longer figured in my life. My deep interest in film songs occasionally brought me to Youtube to find some song or the other which came to mind.
