Today’s song is the last and final song from the action packed social movie Himmat-1970. It was a typical product of South Indian stories, which made an interesting mixture of action, romance, music and dance, crime and emotions coupled with popular actors from the Hindi filmland.

‘Habari’ (1978) was produced by Thakur Hitkaran Singh and was directed by Sher Jung Singh. The cast included Mahendra Sandhu, Preeti Sapru, Narendranath, D K Sapru, Raju Desai, Prakash Gill, Salima Din, Ajit Singh Deol, Mohan Baggad, Gurubachan Singh etc. Mithun Chakraborty worked in the film in a small role as villain’s henchman but was not credited. Director, Sher Jung Singh is the brother-in-law of Dharmendra, his sister being married to him. Actor, Ajit Singh Deol is the younger brother of Dharmendra.

The film’s title, ‘Habari’ appears to have been drawn from Swahili language which is the national language of Kenya. ‘Habari’ is a colloquial way of greetings in Kenya which means ‘how are the things’? or ‘how is the life’?. Since the outdoor shooting was done majorly in the National Parks of Kenya, probably, the producer/director thought of giving this title.

Mohammed Rafi – Tribute on 46th Death Anniversary

jee chaahtaa hai ae
jee chaahtaa hai iss duniya ko o o
main hanste hanste thukraa doon
jee chaahtaa hai ae
iss duniya ko o o
hanste hanste


This beautiful composition by Jaidev, was waiting ignored all this while. This blog now has more than 3500 songs by Rafi Sahab, and still gems are discovered every day.

Over the last few months, I have visited the blog intermittently, trying to keep up with the happenings. But it is not the same without my lap-top which is out of order. Lots of data about songs not posted is stored in it, and now I am feeling lost without it. Luckily, I chanced upon this song link on youtube. I have heard it before, and it is not posted, so 90% chances of link already saved in some file with songs to be posted.

This is my 1900th post on this Blog. This is the second fastest century. For the 16th century, it took me only 119 days, whereas today’s century took 127 days. For me, it is like a dream. I still can not believe that I wrote 1900 articles on this Blog alone. Add to it another 100+ articles on other blogs and sites. Add to it my 13 books published. Add to it scores of books mentioning me and referring to my writings. Add to it countless friends I have gained in the last 14 odd years. Add to it…..

The list would be too long. When I look back, I wonder how all this happened. After retirement, generally people find it difficult to spend time. Here I was, sometimes I had to strive hard to manage time to cope up with my work. At the age of 86 years, I could do all the above, in addition to my work as an Independent Director on the Board of Directors of two major Pharma companies. For this I thank The Almighty and pray that He continues to provide the required energy to me to go on further, till I am destined to be here.
