“Badaltey Rishtey” (1978) was released to a lukewarm response and the movie did not do well at the box office. Of course there is no correlation between a movie’s box office performance and its production values. The story of this movie was different from the usual “dhishum dhishum” stuff of those days. From what one can see from the title of this movie and from the songs, this movie was a story on a love triangle or something similar where Reena Roy have two suitors competing for her.

I have posted a couple of lovely songs from “Akashdeep” (1965) already. This movie clearly has other nice songs too, even if they are not as well known as the two songs that I have already posted.

I had neither heard the name of the movie nor this song, but this song appears a good one to listen to. This song is from “Juaari” (1968). 1968 was a yera that I regard as the plainum year for Bollywood music, and this yera saw many great songs ending up being forgotten just because there were far too many great songs jostling up for limited spaces this year. The songs from “Juaari” were certainly such songs. The fact that this movie did not do well at the box office must have been a factor too. But then what can one do when the hero of the movie is Shashi Kapoor ? 😉

1960 was a decade that saw some memorable qawwalis being created. It is not just Roshan and Ravi who created them, even some lesser known music directors came up with nice qawwalis.

I had once mentioned that the version of song seen in the movie and heard in the records was often different because they were recorded on two separate occassions. Imagine a great song being recorded not once but twice ! Once for the movie sound track, and once for the record company.

Here is a nice car song from “Shrimaan Satyawaadi” (1960). Unlike most car songs, where there is either one or two persons, here there are three persons in the car.
