Raja of Jhumri Tilayya, oops, Holland, keeps wondering why I did not post this song, and whether I did not like this song. Rest assured , Raja, I like all songs of Shammi Kapoor, or for that matter, songs picturised on any other actors, and there is no way I would not have liked this song.

In Bollywood movies, hero woos the lady by singing a song, where he may make tall promises (I will love you for hundred births, I will turn the world topsy turvy for your sake etc). Then there are songs where the boy teases the girl, and the girl, despite taking serious exceptions, somehow begins to respond to hero’s advances as the song progresses.

Shankar Jaikishan were the biggest names among Bollywood music directors for nearly two decades from 1950s to 1960s. It was in 1970 that Jaikishan died. Meanwhile “Mera Naam Joker” flopped big time. All these facts meant that Shankar Jaikishan musical duo was disbanded and moreover Raj Kapoor dropped Shankar Jaikishan ( then effectively only Shankar) from his subsequent movies.

I accidentally stumbled upon this song yet again, and I was immediately reminded of 1972 when this song was very popular with most listeners. This song was regularly played in Radio Ceylon in the aaphi ke geet farmaishi programme. Its farmaish was sent not only from Jhumri Tilaiyya, but from other farmaish happy places as well.

The movie “Padosan” was a laugh riot. The movie was a musical blockbuster too. Apart from the by now legendary ” mere saamne waali khidki mein” “ek chatur naar”,this movie had other hummable songs as well and these songs have their fan following too.

My regular readers may have noticed that I classify my songs based on the place where the song is picturised. Thus we have had car song, rail song, even elephant song, in this blog.

This particular song is a bathroom song by my definition because it is sung in a bathroom. Unlike most bathroom songs which are sung by amateur bathroom singers, this bathroom song is sung by no less a singer than Lata. What is more, this must be one of the sweetest and most melodious songs that Lata must have sung in her career. At least that is what I have always felt about this song.

Rajendra Kumar was known as Dilip Kumar clone, and he was quite a successful one at that too. In fact, Rajendra Kumar was popularly known as “Jubilee” Kumar because most of his movies used to celebrate at least Silver jubilee (25 weeks in a movie hall) and even more.

It is undeniably one of the funniest picturisation of a funny song in the history of Bollywood movies. Kishore Kumar and Mehmood, two of the funniest men in Bollywood combine in this song, along with a support cast of Sunil Dutt, Saira Bano and others, and the result is a laugh riot.

This song, which was almost forgotten by the new generation, got a new lease of life in 1980s when this song was included in a scene in “Andhaa Kanoon” where Rajnikant outsmarts his police inspector sister Hema Malini, when the latter tries to record his confessions to crimes in a hidden tape recorder. Unknown to her, Rajnikant ensures that the song “april fool banaya” replaces his confession in the tape. The finer details of how Rajnikant did that, unnoticed to everyone are not known to us mortals. Ranjikant could move faster than light, and so the detailed technical geek work involved in this may have totally eluded our limited sensory organs.
