#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
Today’s song is from the ‘1981’ movie ‘Barsaat Ki Ek Raat’. Music for this movie was composed by R.D. Burman. This movie has five songs. Four songs out of these five songs have already been posted on this blog. Thus the song under discussion is the final song from this movie. With this song, this movie will join the ‘list of movies – all songs covered’ on the blog.
I had been longing to share this song for a long time, from April 2023 onwards to be precise. That was the time when we had visited the North. During this tour I had visited places like Dalhousie, Dharamshala, and Amritsar and some places of tourist interests around Dalhousie and Dharamshala. We travelled from Vadodara to Pathankot by train. From Pathankot we had to travel by road to Banikhet (Dalhousie) where our accommodation was booked. The next day which was our first day of visiting started by travelling around Dalhousie to Kalatop Sanctuary, the forest rest house, then to Khajjiar (mini Switzerland of India) and Jagdamba temple. The lake at Khajjiar had dried up at that time so that was the only thing missing. The meadows there and the overall background was very exciting.
As per our schedule of travel for the third day the plan was to visit Chamera Lake, Chamunda Devi Temple, Chamera Dam etc and then travel the same day to Dharamshala. A few members including myself were getting motion sickness while travelling in the hills we decided to travel only to Dharamshala and nearby places. The Hotel Manager at Banikhet gave suggestions of places to visit on our request. Among the tourist spots he suggested were, ‘Kunal Pathri Mandir and Tea Garden’. However we took some other internal route and reached Dharamshala first. From there we again resumed our travel after taking lunch. Our stay at Dharamshala was actually at Naddi near McLeodGanj so we decided to cover the places of interest located nearby before going up the hill to our Hotel. This was to keep the next day exclusively for McLeodGanj. We visited the ‘State War Memorial’ in Dharamshala first. There we come to know from other tourist that the Cricket Stadium is closed for tourists (because of IPL I think). So we travelled to Kunal Pathri Mandir. From there we drove to ‘Tea Garden on the Sarah road (near Narghota)’.
Here I was again reminded of the song under discussion. Though there was no river flowing around but the picturesque Dhauladhar range hills and the lush green valley around was really a place to relax and get lost in the cool breeze there. In the recent years I have observed for myself that I was enjoying the compositions of Pancham a lot and listening to them more attentively than before. I feel that there are many of RDB’s compositions especially which take you far away from this world. Some may make you nostalgic, while some of them transport you in time either reminding you of something which you have craved for or the happy or longing moments, & somber or introspecting moments of one’s life too.
The song under discussion is shot at the ‘Tagda Tea Estate’ where we can see the river ‘Teesta’ flowing in the valley. The film credits also mentions name of the river in the lyrics of this song. (Title of the movie mentions it as ‘Tagda Tea Estate’, I think it is spelled as ‘Takdah’.). Knowledgeable readers might know that the river ‘Teesta’ flows in the states of Sikkim and West Bengal and enters Bangladesh through Rangpur division. From there it joins Brahmaputra and finally empties into Bay of Bengal. It flows through the districts of Gangtok, Kalimpong, and Darjeeling etc.
Today’s song is sung by Lata Mangeshkar. It is lipsynced on screen by Rakhee Gulzar (who is shown as a blind girl). We can see Prema Narayan and others in the picturisation of this wonderful song. The picturisation of this song is very beautiful and I feel that the ‘essence’ of the ‘atmosphere around’ is very well captured showing the sun rays coming through the clouds, the mountain range around, the lush green tea garden and other greenery, flowers in the garden, the temple nearby there and the river flowing in the valley.
‘Barsaat Ki Ek Raat-1981’ was produced & directed by Shakti Samanta for ‘Shakti Films’ i.e. his home production. The cast of this movie included Amitabh Bachchan, Rakhee Gulzar, Amjad Khan, Utpal Dutt, Abhi Bhattacharya, and Prema Narayan with Asit Sen, Ashim Kumar, Tarun Ghosh, Manik Dutt, Subrato Mahapatra, Surjit, Manoj, Robin, Kishore, Rinchin, Ajoy, Bunny, Probir, Nimoo, Mukunda, Narayan, Satya, Anamika and Dolly.
Sujit Kumar and Chandrashekhar had a special appearance in this movie.
Story of this movie was written by Shaktipada Rajguru. Screenplay was written by Shakti Samanta and Shaktipada Rajguru. Dialogues of this movie were written by Kamleshwar. And Editing of this movie was done by Bijoy Chowdhury where Sudhir Verma was his associate. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 06.02.1981.
Here is a brief about this movie as mentioned by our Peevesie’s Mom in her post with a song of this movie. Some part I have taken from her write-up and have added some from my side. 🙂
The movie was set in the picturesque North Bengal region- Darjeeling to be exact. Tea gardens formed the backdrop for most songs. It was a made simultaneously in Bengali as “Anusandhan” and was based on a Bengali novel. The Bengali version was more successful as compared to the Hindi one.
Suresh Babu (Abhi Bhattacharya) is an official of the tea gardens and Rajni (Rakhee) is his blind daughter.
Amjad Khan (Kaliram) played the local goonda- element, who is a law unto himself and has all the vices possible. Utpal Dutt (Sahuji), who is Amjad Khans’ father in the movie, is also the cause of the areas’ problems. He instigates the workers to strike against Abhi Bhattacharya etc. Additionally, he is involved in cross border smuggling.
Into this set up, Abhijeet (Amitabh Bachchan) walks in. Initially the locals have no clue about who he is. And he gets into a tangle with Kaliram on numerous occasions.
Abhijeet falls in love with Rajni. Kaliram tries to molest Rajni but she is saved by Abhijeet who arrests Kaliram and put him in the jail. Later Abhijeet marries Rajni and they settled down in a peaceful village. When they are expecting their first child Kaliram gets released from the jail and to ‘settle the score’ he reach to Rajni after making a fake call to Abhijeet and move him away from the house. Kaliram attacks Rajni and in the incident kills here unborn child. Finally Abhijeet gets hold of Kaliram but he is accidentally shot by his own father Sahu (Utpal Dutt) who was attempting to shoot Abhijeet.
I remember to have watched this movie then in childhood with my brothers and cousins. But have never watched it again later or in the recent years. ‘Barsaat Ki Ek Raat-1981’ has five songs written by Anand Bakshi which were composed to music by R.D. Burman. Here is the list of these songs with their respective status of posting on the blog. Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle were the playback singers for this movie.
Though this movie has some good compositions none of its songs made it to the ‘annual list of Binaca Geetmala of 1981’.
Let us now enjoy this beautiful song and this wonderful composition of R.D. Burman…
With today’s song all the songs of ‘Barsaat Ki Ek Raat-1981’ get covered on the blog.
