“Anokhi Ada” to me was a movie of 1970s starring Jeetendra and Vinod Khanna, but I came to know that there was another movie of this name in 1948 too. Why did these oldtimers choose the same name as a new movie and then had some boring music in that- this is what I used to think in 1970s.

When one talks of “Dard” (1947), one is mostly reminded on the immortal song “Afsaana likh rahi hoon dile bekaraar ka” which took the nation by storm. It was sung by Umadevi (later known as Tuntun) and picturised on Munawwar Sultana.

“Mughal e Azam” (1960) was a musical blockbuster and almost all its songs have gone on to become iconic songs. Though I have posted a few songs from this movie, I need to post all the songs from this movie.

One big reason why the songs of the golden era are still popular is the lyrics of these songs, which were meaningful and they in fact formed the soul of these songs.

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.

I am aware that “Babul” (1950) had Dilip Kumar and Nargis in lead roles. So I was confused when I watched this song from “Babul”. I had no difficulty identifying Dilip Kumar singing in Talat Mehmood’s voice, but who was the lady. she looked unfamiliar. And she did not look like Nargis.

The musical combination of Shakeel Badayuni and Naushad delivered several great songs. “Paalki” (1967) was one of the last such movies which had lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni and music by Naushad.

There are a few people who say that “Shabaab” (1954) was one where Naushad gave his best music. I hope the people who hold this opinion are aware that Naushad was the music director of movies like “Baiju Baawra”, Mughal e Azam” etc as well. There are others who feel that “Baiju Baawra” could be the best creation of Naushad.
