“Mere Laal”(1966) was directed by Satyen Bose for S S Chitramandir, Bombay. This “social” movie had Dev Kumar, Indrani Mukherji, Jagdev, Shekhar Purohit, Lalit Kapoor, Prakash Mishra, Abhi Bhattacharya, Jamaal, Samson, Rajkumar, Siddiqui, Ghulam Sabir, Master Anwar, Master Satyajeet, Madhuraj, Juthika devi, Darshan, Moolchand, Meenakshi, Mahesh, Ratan etc in it.

The movie had eight songs in it (including one multiple version song). Six of these songs have been covered in the past.

Here is the seventh song from “Mere Laal”(1966) to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Lata. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.

The song is picturised on Mahesh Kumar aka Mahesh Kothare(playing a child beggar) with Mala Sinha also seen in the picturisation.

Lyrics of the song and other details were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

With this song, Majrooh Sultanpuri completes 1200 songs in the blog as a lyricist. Incidentally Majrooh Sultanpuri had completed his 1000th song as a lyricist with another song from this movie as well.

This post celebrates the 1000th song of Majrooh Sultanpuri on our blog.

rok sakta hamen zindaan e balaa kya majrooh
hum to awaaz hain deewaaron se chhan jaate hain

Powerful lines, written while he was in prison – no, not under the British rule; that happened back in 1946-47. This was a second time he was imprisoned c1950-51, under the regime of a free India. A poet with leftist leanings, his progressive writings were considered a threat by the British regime (which is understandable), and also considered a threat by then government of Morarji Desai (in Bombay). A song titled ‘Aman Ka Jhanda’ was sung at a meeting of poor labor class workers in the Parel area. Being the author, and the on stage presenter of this song, drew the ire of the establishment, and arrest warrants were issued in his name. He was arrested after being underground for some time, and sentenced to one year imprisonment. Morarji Desai suggested that he may render an apology for his writings, and he would be a free man. In response, the young revolutionary poet wrote this couplet.

rok sakta hamen zindaan e balaa kya majrooh
hum to awaaz hain deewaaron se chhan jaate hain

No walls of a prison
No tyranny of a jailer
Has the power to bind me
I am the voice (of conscience)
That permeates through
The walls of confinement
[Note: zindaan = jailer]

Remembering Majrooh Sb on the 98th anniversary of his birth today (1st October).
