Yesterday, I was watching the song, gumsum saa ye jahaan ye raat ye hawaa from the film, ‘Duniya Jhuktee Hai’ (1960). An idea came to me as to how many Hindi films songs may have the word ‘gumsum’ in the first line of the mukhda of the songs. I checked on the internet and found that over two dozen songs had the word, ‘gumsum’ in the first line of the mukhda. There may be more Hindi film songs with ‘gumsum’ but they may appear elsewhere in the songs. I selected few such songs to watch/listen. One of ‘gumsum’ songs which I heard for the first time and liked so much that I must have heard umpteen times. It is a beautifully crafted song in terms of lyrics, rendition, orchestration and the picturisation. The song is ‘gumsum kyun hai sanam o zaraa maan jaa’ from the film, ‘Bhala Maanush’ (1979) which I am presenting in this short write-up, concentrating mainly on the song. Gulshan Bawra wrote this song.

Pancham’s Music – Eighties (1981-1990) Part-2 –post-2 (1982)
In this post I am presenting a wonderful Pancham song from the movie ‘Ye Vaadaa Rahaa-1982’. I vaguely remember to have watched this movie during the weekly screening of movies in our colony club during 1982-1983. The year 1982-1983 was the academic year of class Xth for me, which means I would be appearing for board exams in the month of March-1983. I was above fourteen years of age when I would have watched this movie. So that was a perfect time for a growing person to get ‘dreamy’ in life and about life around us. The school days were full of fun. Every one of my friends was serious about studies I was the one more interested in cricket and was missing someone who had left for another town due to transfer of her father from the place where we were staying. I remember I liked this movie and its music very much and the songs from this movie have remained close to my heart ever since. On this blog we have so far covered four songs from this movie.

The song in this post is a nice composition, albeit a lesser heard song that has been forgotten alongwith its movie which had failed at the box office. This movie is ‘Jaan E Jaan’ or ‘Nikammaa’. This movie was launched in the mid-seventies with the title ‘Nikammaa’, but it got delayed and after completion it was finally released in the year 1983 with the title ‘Jaan E Jaan’. If one watches the movie for first fifteen minutes one can find why it was titled as ‘Nikammaa’ earlier, because its hero Raju, in-spite of being graduate doesn’t have any job and even if somebody recommends him for a job he loses it because he is naive and a simpleton(read stupid).

(Songs from Un-released/Un-Titled movies)
Yesterday 13th May 2025 was the seventy-nineth birthday of Shree Bishwanath Chatterjee compiler of Hindi Film Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980).
This post is delayed on my part as I could not finish it yesterday. Earlier I had planned to visit to Nagpur for this special occasion, but it could not happen. I had spoken to our common friend Mr Avinash Shravane at Nagpur, and we thought that few likeminded friends would also attend this function. But it did not materialize. However, few friends did arrange some program as informed to me by Mr Chatterjee himself, when I called him to wish him on his birthday yesterday. (I am yet to get the updates about the function held yesterday, so that may be covered later 😊).
