“Adaa” (1951) is a by now forgotten movie that had Shekhar, Rehana, Gope, Madan Puri etc in it. I had discussed two songs from this movie in the past. Sudhir recently came across another song from this movie and he pointed this song out to me.

“Dulhan Ek Raat Ki” (1966) is a movie that had Dharmendra and Nutan in lead roles. The movie itself failed at the box office though one song from this movie, viz Ek haseen shaam ko dil mera kho gayaa has gone on to become an immortal song.

I have not seen “Wo Kaun Thhi” (1964) but I know that Manoj Kumar and Sadhana were the lead actors in this movie. Knowing Hindi movies, the lead duo in Hindi movies must fall in love and sing romantic duets. I have posted as many as five songs from this movie and I just realised that none of these songs were romantic duets picturised on the lead pair. There were songs picturised on them, but those songs were solo songs sung by Lata (and lip synced by Sadhana). In other words, Manoj Kumar did not get to lip sync in the songs picturised on Manoj Kumar and Sadhana.

I was under the impression that I had already discussed this song long back, and so I was surprised to know that I was wrong. I do not know how I missed discussing this song in the past.

Though I have discussed nearly 20 % of all the Madan Mohan songs already, there are still lots and lots of Madan Mohan songs that are yet to come to my notice. I have so far discussed songs from 67 movies in which Madan Mohan composed movies. It means that as many as 25 movies with Madan Mohan’s music are still to get covered in this blog.

“Khoobsoorat” (1952) is one of the obscure movies with Madan Mohan’s music in it. I have little idea about the cast of this movie, but I find that this movie has a song sung by Suraiyya. This tells me that Suraiyya was clearly there in this movie as the leading lady. And this also tells me that Madan Mohan in that case had a few of his songs sung by Suraiyya too.

Most movies in which Madan Mohan composed movies ended up as box office disasters. Many of these movies are today remembered mainly for their music rather than for anything else. And what timeless music these movies had !

Madan Mohan composed music in as many as 92 movies in his career as a music director. When I look back, I find that I have discussed Madan Mohan songs from as many as 64 movies in this blog. It means that songs from 28 movies are yet to be represented. With this realisation, now I am motivated to discuss Madan Mohan songs from the missing movies.
