These are the days of instant connectivity when one can keep in contact with one’s beloved through calls, sms and what not !
It was just a decade or two ago that such communication took place via the medium that is now known as snail mail. Letters were sent to one’s beloved though post office, and in case of Hindi movies where the hero’s beloved lived in the same mohalla, he would try to send his love letter directly, without going through the formality of posting it through the post office.

Here is a song that I have wanted to send for quite some now. I will call it rare in the sense that the duet is with male singers —Kishore Kumar and S P Balasubramaniam. The two heroes are Rishi Kapoor and Kamalhaasan. The picturisation shows the heroes dancing in a local joint- call it a bar or an eating house or Tavern (I think that is the right word) run by Dimple and her dad Saeed Jaffrey.

I am not really qualified to talk at length about Mohammed Rafi. I was lucky to be growing up during the 60s when the best of our music was all around me. Rafi was here, there and everywhere. He ruled the airwaves.

This is a sequel to the Bachpan ka incident that I related the last time. My dear Peevesie reminded me of this and urged me to relate it also. It is a sweet memory which is referred to by my dad to her every time the song or scene of a particular movie comes on TV. And then we all have a good time thinking of those days.

I think and hope that this is the last song from Zehreela Insaan (1974) to be published here and thus it would put the name of the film in red colour in the list. This is the title song of the movie explaining why the main protagonist of the film is called zehreela insaan (poisonous man).
PS-Thanks to Prakashchandra, now we know that there is one more song in this movie that is left to be covered.

Mere dil se ye nain

In my last post on the song from “Zehreela Insaan” (1974), I gave a short synopsis of the movie. This song, filmed on Rishi Kapoor and Moushumi Chatterjee, shows them in happier times. Since they are playing college students here, they have most probably bunked classes to meet and sing a song. This seems to be a popular haunt with the main protagonist of the film. Three songs of the film are shot here.

Here is another solo of Rafi Sahab from the film “Laila Majnu” (1976). This is a ghazal picturized as a doli song with Majnu following Laila’s doli in the desert and singing this song , imploring Laila to take with her, the prayers of the one who has been left desolate in her love. This is among the last few compositions of Madan Mohan. Lyricist is Saahir Ludhianvi. Master of ghazals as Madan Mohan is known as, this is a brilliant creation of all three legends. A teetotaler simpleton, a cynical intellectual and a broken genuis alcoholic. A strange combination if there were any.
