I wonder if anyone has ever written a thesis on Hindi movie songs. There are so many topics to chose from if one thinks about it. How about the topic named “A study on the behaviour of a lady being pursued by a man singing a teasing song”.

Mehandi lagi thhi mere haath

Ever since Ghulam Haider introduced dholak (belonging to the percussion family) as a major musical instrument for song compositions in the super hit film ‘Khazaanchi’ (1941), it has become an inseparable part of Hindi film songs. In fact in the 50s, prominent music directors started engaging specialist dholak players in the songs’ orchestration. The introduction of dholak in the Hindi film songs has made some of them so rhythmic that a music lover consciously or unconsciously replays the rhythmic beats with his fingers on whatever place he find near him, be it on a sofa hand rest or on a table top or play it on any of the kitchen vessels as Bhagwan did in ‘ kismet ki hawa kabhi garam kabhi naram’ (Albelaa-1951).

As I checked the ‘list of films – moviewise’ on this blog, my reaction was – O My God, this film is not yet represented here. Wow. Well not that something is amiss. There is a ton of films that are still to find their way to this blog. But the music is so wow, and I wondered how it has stayed away from this blog thus far. The film is full of both lilting and sentimental gems. And so I must write this post and have this film debut its presence here.
There is an age old saying that advises to look before one leaps. No matter how simple a thing may seem, this adage holds true. And no matter how many times one may have tried or done something, there is always a chance one may make a slip the next time. That is what happened with me today. 🙂 Usually, when I am selecting songs for a write up, I will do a diligent check on the list of songs already posted for two purposes. One to ensure that the song is not already on the blog, and secondly, to get some info about the already posted songs from the same film to add to the write up. And in this effort, I am usually diligent about spellings and name variations and try to look into the lists more closely than just the alphabetical matching.

This time I have found a very rare duet sung by Asha Bhonsle and Mohammed Rafi. It is from the film “Minister”(1959). The song is written by Rajendra Krishan and composed by Madan Mohan. I have not heard or seen this song before. But it is a nice and funny song performed on screen by Tun Tun and Bhagwaan. It is the eternal fight between husbands and wives, which holds good across cultures world wide. Wife accusing husband of being irresponsible and careless and husband complaining that wife is always ready for a fight and doubting the husband at every turn.
