We all know that Madan Mohan left for his heavently abode during the making of this film “Laila Majnu”. The film released in 1976 and the music of this film was super hit and it is very popular to this day. The success that eluded him during his lifetime was only destined to be his after his death.

Here is another fun song from the film “Minister”. Two months ago the post another song “Aji Biwi ko ghar pe bitthla ke” from this film appeared in the blog. The song I am discussing now will be the third song from this film. This is a “telephone song” sung by Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhosle. Music is by Madan Mohan and Lyricist is Rajendra Krishan. Unfortunately, I dont recognise the two actors who are lip synching this song. The song is funny enough, just like “mere piyaa gaye rangoon”. Bhagwaan Dada is seen only briefly during the song. Telephone songs have their own appeal as the the singers are required to be on the opposite ends of the line. But in this song, though it starts in a telephone booth and ends there too, the protagonists are singing it with each other and roaming around outdoors.

Ek gaana hai, kareeb chaalis saal puraana – “Chain Se Humko Kabhi, Aap Ne Jeene Ne Diyaa” . From the film ‘Pran Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye’. And the year is 1973. Yes getting to be about 40 years ago. But listening to this song, even today – the sound, the feelings, and the words – all appear to be so young and so fresh. And the lyricist – composer pair is SH Behari and OP Nayyar. A partnership that started in the mid 50s, and flowered exceptionally in the decade of 60s to give so many memorable songs one after another.
