The best thing about Holi songs is that in most cases, the message of colors is immediately apparent in the coloring of the lyrics. The songs get created in the spirit of Holi itself. It is a social and group celebrations, and the songs of this festival are sung by multiple singers, and performed by a multitude of players on the screen. And as we sit down to color code the lyrics, the resulting view is as colorful as the festival itself.

Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 5
—————————————————–
It should be an interesting exercise – to identify and list out all the sales pitch songs, and then check which actors have performed them on screen. My intuition is that the exercise will indicate that most sales pitch songs, sung by male voices, have been performed on screen by either Johnny Walker or Mehmood.

Mohammed Rafi – The Incomparable – 2
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
We all know that Mohammed Rafi Sb is the one playback who had many singers copying and imitating his singing style during his lifetime. After his passing away, the tendency only increased. There are a few shining examples like Sonu Nigam who started with Rafi Sb’s style and made a name for themselves. He is, in my view, closely followed by Udit Narayan and Mohammed Aziz. During the 1970s, when Rafi Sb was alive, there was Anwar who reportedly trained under him, and Rafi Sb himself regarded him highly. All these singers strived to imitate the inimitable Rafi magic.

Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 3

Aha,
lailaa ki ungliyaan hain
majnoo ki pasliyaan hain
do do paise mein le lo babu
naram taazi kakdiyaan hain
I remember this jingle from childhood. Occasionally used to hear it from the roadside hawkers, and once I even heard it in a radio play on Vividh Bharti. Then many years later, I encountered this song also. I used to wonder, whether the song came first or this jingle came first – which is based on which. As I prepare this post, just casually I googled it, and found references to Lucknow and Agra where fresh vegetable vendors are known to use this jingle. So maybe this is more of a folk tradition, converted into a film song later on. Just like “Jumkha Gira Re Bareilly Ke Bazaar Mein“. 😉

‘Phanda-1975’ was one of the first few films screened at our colony club when the weekly screening of films was started there in 1975-76. The name of this film was vague in my memory, and I do not remember either the film or its’ star cast or songs. Might be an obscure movie of its time. Now, after so many years when the film’s name knocked my memory, I take on search for its songs and other details.
