Songs Repeated in Hindi Films – 29
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
This post may likely be the most peculiar one of this series. Here we see a song, or more accurately a song snippet, reused in a most peculiar manner.
The film is ‘Mujhe Jeene Do’ from 1963. Recently, I chanced upon this song snippet, which is part of a song from another film. I have seen this film maybe once or twice earlier, but did not register or remember this song snippet being present in the film. A friend recently brought this to my attention, and I thought of writing this post.

Today, August 25th is 51st Remembrance Day of Shaayar-e-Inquilaab, Makhdoom Mohiuddin, an Urdu poet, a dramatist and a politician whose name may not ring bell for many of the lovers of Hindi film songs. They may, however, be aware of a couple of his popular Hindi film songs such as ek chameli ke mandve tale from’Chaa Chaa Chaa’ (1964) and aapki yaad aati rahi raat bhar from ‘Gaman’ (1979).
Makhdoom Mohiuddin (04/02/1908 – 25/08/1969) was born in Medak in the then Hyderabad state (present day Telangana). He belonged to the family of religious teachers and preachers. He lost his father, when he was 6. Subsequently, his mother remarried and went away in her separate way making Makhdoom Mohiuddin almost like an orphan. He was brought up by his paternal uncle. It is said that Makhdoom was influenced by his uncle’s leaning towards the leftist ideology.

If one asks old Hindi film song buffs about the song “ek chameli ke mandwe tale from ‘Cha Cha Cha’ (1964), almost all of them would say that the song was sung by Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhonsle. Most of them would even know the name of the film and that the song was composed by Iqbal Qureshi. Those who have watched the movie or video clip of this song, all of them would remember that the song was picturised on a modest looking Helen and Chandrashekhar. But very few would know as to who wrote the song.

Aap ki yaad aati rahi raat bhar

I thought that there should be at least one song of Jaidev from a film for which he got National Award for the best music direction, for discussion on the occasion of his death anniversary which is on January 6th. The ghazal is from film GAMAN (1978) – “Aapki yaad aati rahi raat bhar”. The ghazal was wriiten by Maqdoom Mohiuddin, the famous urdu poet and then a member of Communist Party of India. This has been sung by many ghazal singers but I like the way Chhaya Ganguli has sung this ghazal and also the tune and soft orchestra used by Jaidev to reflect the mood of the ghazal.
