What a gem of a song ! Ghulam Mohammed at his melodious best. I am sure you will find yourself humming this song over and over after you have heard it once. That is what is happening in my mind as I am putting down the lyrics and preparing this write up, the leading lines just keep playing again and again in my mind – ‘chhodo chhodo ji piyaa mera todo na jiyaa’. What a lovely composition this one is.

Lootera (1965) is a story of pirates and princesses. It is a B grade action drama, with a star cast that includes Dara Singh, Prithviraj Kapoor, Nishi, Helen, Hiralal, Jeevan, Maruti, Bela Bose and others. The music of this movie is simply superb. All songs of this movie are very hummable and well known. And all songs, except one, are rendered by Lata Mangeshkar.

“Anita”(1967) is a movie starring Manoj Kumar and Sadhana. it was the third part of a trilogy of mystery woman movie that Raj Khosla made. The other two being Wo Kaun Thi and Mera Saayaa. But much has changed by 1967 when this movie was released. But much had changed in all these years. Sadhana, who looked so pretty and stunning with a glowing face, had lost much of her facial glow and charm following some illness. This movie, to the best of my knowledge, was not as much of a success as the other two movies.

Though I have discussed as many as seven songs from “Nastik” (1954), I was not aware of this song till a few hours ago.
This song is a bhajan cum public lament. In this song, Ajit, Usha Kiran and others are sitting in a temple in front of the idols of gods and Ajit sings this song. The song states that non believers tend to blame God for their misdeeds, but their efforts to give a bad name to God cannot succeed. God’s flag will always fly high, come what may.
