While posting songs from “Bandini” (1963), I had mentioned that even the “lesser” songs from this movie were gems. This movie has absolutely wonderful songs sung by Lata, Mukesh, S D Burman, Asha Bhonsle etc.

I know of at least two movies called “Amaanat”. The earlier one was released in 1955 and it had Bharat Bhushan and Chand Usmani in lead roles. The later one was released sometime in 1970s and this movie had Manoj Kumar and Sadhana in lead roles.

On popular demand from several of my readers, I am posting the remaing songs of “Madumati” (1958) these days. I have so far already posted six songs from this movie. Six timeless songs should be more than enough for one movie, but there are more such songs in this movie !

When it comes to songs of the golden era, I have certain observations. One of these observations is that every movie had several nice songs. Some of the songs went on to become popular but even those songs which failed to become popular are worth listening to. In many cases, they may even be as good as, if not better, than the more popular songs of that movie.

Though I have posted as many as six songs from “Madhumati” already, I need to post other songs from this movie as well, seeing that this movie has so many wonderful songs in it.
