I have posted as many as seven songs from “Kashmir Ki Kali” (1964) and one may be excused for assuming that there may not be any more songs left to be posted from this movie. But then one would underestimate the calibre of music directors of those era, if one made such an assumption.

Naazuk naazuk badan moraa
Posted on: October 3, 2010
Reading the line of the lyrics “naazuk naazuk badan moraa” did not ring any bells for me, but when I listened to the song, then it rang began to ring quite loudly. I had listened to this song during my younger days, some four decades ago. And I was not aware of any details of this song. In fact I was nnot even aware of the lyrics of the song. I only had vague recollections of the catchy tune of this song.

I have not kept a count of it, but I think I have posted songs from most Shammi Kapoor movies in this blog. Considering that Shammi Kapoor came into his own in 1957 with “Tumsa Nahin Dekhaa” (1957) and continued till late 1960s with the kind of movies with he is identified, he may have worked in about 20 odd typically Shammi Kapoor movies. I have posted songs from almost all these movies, in addition to posting songs from other Shammi Kapoor movies where he played other kinds of roles.

Dukh bhare din beete re bhaiyya
Posted on: October 2, 2010
I always thought that the song “dukh bhare din beete re bhaiyya” from “Mother India” (1957) was a brief song, almost an afterthought. I do not know how I came to believe that. Perhaps I may have watched a brief portion of this song when I watched this movie (some 25 years after the movie was released) or perhaps because I have not heard this song in detail in the past.

Here is a song which is from 1968 when I was very much around as a keen listen of Hindi movie songs. But I never got to listen to this song. I stumbled upon this song for the first time only a few hours ago.
