The above is not an attempt at any ‘Blog-Ten Year Challenge’. I was just looking up to see what were the films that appeared on the blog on that day ten years ago(8 december 2013) and the “YYIIPPEEEE” status of those movies.
| Movie (Year) | Songs status of the movie |
|---|---|
| Anaath Asharam(1937) | 3 songs out of 15 |
| Subah Ka Taara(1954) | yyiippeeeed |
| Neel Kamal( 1947) | yyiippeeeed |
| Resham Ki Dori(1974) | 3 songs out of 6 |
Recently, the blog touched 18100. In that post, Atulji pointed out that in the 79 days between post number 18000 & 18100 my small contribution was 16 posts. That means 16 songs in 12 weeks. And I was surprised that it is a case of some week having more than one song; this must have happened in the month of October when a few of my favourite heroes, heroines & singers had their birthdays & death anniversaries. But one thing is for sure, the frequency of my writing is erratic and I don’t know what excuses to offer. But here is taking fresh guard after my last, which was my 600th post.
“Gehri Chot” (1983) was initially released with the title “Door Desh” in March 1983 (as per some sites on the internet). The YouTube link for the film shows date of certificate issue as 30-11-1983; that confuses me further- how can the film release before getting a censor certificate.
On researching a little in the KNOWLEDGE BOX that the blog has become I found “Paanch Dushman” (1973) to be an almost similar case i.e. it was re-released with the title “Daulat Ke Dushman” in 1981. The reasons for the two title-changed re-release may be different but they may make an interesting case study.
Shall call the film “Door Desh”, as mentioned in the censor certificate, and the titles of the film starts as ‘Gehri Chot’ urf ‘Door Desh’. The film is listed on IMDB as an action-crime-drama & was an Indian- Canadian film directed by Ambrish Sangal; who was an assistant to J. Om Prakash during ‘Aya Sawan Jhoom Ke’ ; ‘Aan Milo Sajna’ etc. & later went on to make ‘Aatish’; ‘Aap toh aise na the’; ‘Dard’; ‘Suraag’ etc.
“Door Desh” had Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Raj Babbar, Parveen Babi, Nadeem Baig, Bobita (not to be confused with the Kapoor bahu Babita), David Abraham (in one of his last roles, he had already retired & settled in Canada by then) etc.
Bobita (Farida Akhtar Poppy) was an award winning Bangaldeshi actress, from her filmography it is evident that she has been active till 2015 as actress & is also a producer. Nadeem Baig (Mirza Nazeer Baig) is a Pakistani actor, singer, & producer regarded as the best all-time Pakistani actor in Heroic roles, and he is still working in films & television. “Door Desh” opens with a dedication to David Abraham who had died on 2nd January 1982, i.e. before the film released.
Usha Khanna was the music director & Indeevar the lyricist. Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Usha Mangeshkar, Chandrani Mukherjee, Yesudas, Anwar & Usha Khanna (herself). Story -screenplay- dialogue was by Suraj Sanim.
The film was the story of an NRI (Shashi Kapoor) from Toronto who comes to India to marry a traditional Indian woman (Sharmila Tagore). The film then goes on to the adjustment problems the couple face & their separation after the birth of their kids- the son (Raj Babbar on growing up)goes back to India with the mother & daughter (Bobita) stays with the father. The family comes together 20 years later when there is a crisis, as the daughter has been kidnapped. The mother comes with the son to help trace the daughter.
Sharmila Tagore, whose birthday is on 8th December, made her debut in films through Bengali films in 1959. Her first Hindi film was in 1964 ‘Kashmir Ki Kali’ with Shammi Kapoor as her hero. 1965 was the first time she was paired with Shashi Kapoor, in B.R. Film’s ‘Waqt’.
The two of them were seen in 11 movies after that :-
Aamne Saamne (1967), Suhana Safar (1970), My Love (1970), Aa Gale Lag Jaa (1973), Paap Aur Punya (1974), Anari (1975), Gehri Chot urf Door Desh (1983), New Delhi Times, Maa Beti, Swati (all in 1986), Hum Toh Chale Pardes (1988).
Shashi Kapoor stopped acting in films sometime in the 1980s, but he did direct ‘Ajooba’ in 1990. He was seen in two Merchant-Ivory films in 1993 & 1998 and a British-Pakistani film, also in 1998. He died on 4th December 2017 due to liver & heart complications.
Thinking of the sweet & charming Shashi Kapoor today. Also wishing Sharmila Tagore all happiness & good health on her special day.

| 7802 | Aayi milan ki bahaar re | Naiyya (1947) | 3 songs covered out of 6 by now |

| 7808 | Dhoop ke makaan sa ye | Break Ke Baad (2010) | One song covered out of 6 by now |
We observe that two movies (out of 7) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 2 april 2013) have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with five unYIPPEED movies that re eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (2 april 2023).
One of the unYIPPEED movies has been taken up under BTYC earlier in the day.
Chronoologically the second oldest unYIPPEED movie of that date was “Milan Ki Raat”(1967). This movie was produced by Makin,Pratima(Protima),Yusuf & Prakash and directed by R Bhattacharya for Musical movies, Bombay. The movie had Sharmila Tagore, Sanjay, Prakash Thapa, Helen, Johnny Walker, Abhi Bhattacharya, Laxmi Chhaya, Jeevan Kala, Chand Usmani, S.K.Prem, Jankidas, Amar, Rirkoo, Moni Chatterji, Jerry, Mirza Musharraf, Master Ranu, Vijay Kumar, Shyama, Sulochana(Latkar), Shahid Bijnori, Paul Sharma, Ranoo, Rajan Kapoor etc in it.
“Milan Ki Raat”(1967) had five songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.
Here is the third song from the movie. It is sung by Mukesh. Anand Bakshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.
The song is picturised as a poignant background song with sombre looking Sharmila Tagore visible, whereas Sanjay Khan is seen trying to pacify a disconsolate master Ranu. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the movie as well as on the picturisation of this song.
Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.
Editor’s Note:
[Updated 06 Apr, 2023]
Dear Mahesh ji pointed out with reference to the Mukesh Geet Kosh, that the film version and the 78 rpm version of this song are entirely different. However, the 78 rpm version song is not yet available anywhere online. His observation led me to track down the 78 rpm version of this song from my hard disk, and upload it on YT. The lyrics section below has also been updated with the lyrics of the 78 rpm version.
Thanks Mahesh ji, for your alert tracking.

ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई
मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ओ मेरे रामा रे तेरी दुहाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
बिछड़ा एक माँ से दुलारा
बिछड़ा एक माँ से दुलारा
डूबा इन आँखों का तारा
टूटा इस मन का सहारा
मन का सहारा
हमरे आँगन में भेस जुदाई
बादल कर आई
मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
दुख ने सारे सुख लूटे
दुख ने सारे सुख लूटे
सच निकले सारे झूठे
सपनों के मंदिर टूटे
मंदिर टूटे
रूठे राधा से कृष्ण कन्हाई
के बाँह छुड़ाई
मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ओ मेरे रामा रे तेरी दुहाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
मिलन की रात
मिलन की रात
मिलन की रात
Hindi Lyrics (78 rpm version)

जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ओ मेरे रामा रे तेरी दुहाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
इस रात की रीत नहीं ये
इस रात की रीत नहीं ये
इस रुत का गीत नहीं ये
दुश्मन है ये मीत नहीं ये
चली रोती हुई पुरवाई
बाजी ना शहनाई
मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
यूं बिछड़े हम साजन से
यूं बिछड़े हम साजन से
जैसे रिमझिम सावन से
कोई पूछे टूटे मन से
टूटे मन से
मन तड़पा नजर भर आई
यूं हमने बिताई
मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ओ मेरे रामा रे तेरी दुहाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात
ग़म की बदली छाई
जुदाई लेके आई मिलन की रात

Hullo Atuldom
Films with “Ek” in their title that are present on the blog:- 66 and in that list I found some titles have been repeated too like “Ek Gaon Ki Kahaani”; “Ek Hi Rasta” (3 times); amazing.
“Ek Se Badkar Ek” (1976) is one of the 66 on the blog. It was a movie produced & directed by Brij. It had Kalyanji-Anandji as music directors of songs written by Verma Malik. Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar, Mohd Rafi., Lata Mangeshkar and Runa Laila (from Bangladesh) were the playback singers used. The multi-starrer had Ashok Kumar, Raj Kumar, Sharmila Tagore, Navin Nischol, Anwar Hussain, Padma Khanna, Helen, David, Deven Verma, Purnima, Shetty etc in the cast.
Today I found a trivia about how Deven Verma was present in many movies made by Brij- Brij was the director of Deven Verma’s first production “Yakeen” and that association continued in films like “Chori Mera Kaam”, “Bombay 405 Miles” etc.
Most of the films made by Brij had Ashok Kumar and Anwar Hussain, with Ashok Kumar in all kinds of hair-do and Anwar Hussain being the Cigar-smoking White-suited gang=leader always after precious stones, and moorti (idols). All the heroes in Brij’s films were incidental and heroines eye-candy. There will be at least one song where the hero will be in disguise. Then there will be a song filmed on Ashok Kumar which will be mostly sung by Kishore Kumar. Let me make it clear here, that I am speaking of films made in the 1970s/80s and not the ones before that, I have not seen many of them. All-in-all, films made by Brij were entertainers.
We shall have a song from “Ek Se Badkar Ek” today where we have the romantic lead dancing a Bhangra, possibly at a youth festival. It is obvious that Navin Nischol is not comfortable dancing, and Sharmila Tagore is too slim in front of him. This song is in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar. This is the third song from the film to appear on the blog. I am sure many of the followers of this blog will recall today’s song which used to be played regularly on the radio.
With this we will be Wishing the pretty lady -Sharmila Tagore- on her birthday. She is one actress who proved that she was much sought after actress, who could be cast in any type of role, even after marriage and motherhood. She is the ideal inspiration and support for her actress daughter and daughter-in-law.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # # Raaja Raani -1973#
—————————————
Today’s song is from the ‘1973’ movie ‘Raaja Raani’.
This is one of the movies released during ‘Rajesh Khanna era’ in Hindi movies.
I recall to have read that this movie was termed as un-successful or it was even considered as a ‘flop’ movie of its time. But times have changed now and considering various factors (economic) and the collections made by this movie then, this movie is now considered as a ‘hit’ or ‘successful’ movie of its time.
Here is what the Wikipedia page on Rajesh Khanna mentions about this movie now (in the section ‘acting career’ of Rajesh Khanna) –
“As per the review of Raja Rani written in 2014 by ‘The Hindu’ newspaper, the film did well at the box office and, taking into consideration the inflation as of 2014, the film would have grossed more than 100 crores. The attire worn by Khanna was a sleeveless shirt and trousers, thick leather belt, shoes without socks and a black cap.The Hindu review noted “On a lesser actor, the attire would have fallen flat, but Khanna, as a small time thief, carries it with characteristic élan.”
In 1973 Rajesh Khanna and Sharmila Tagore appeared together in the following movies (in alphabetical order):
| Movie Title | Director | Lyricist/s | Music Director | Passed by Censor Board |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aavishkaar | Basu Bhattacharya | Kapil Kumar, Gyandev Agnihotri | Kanu Roy | 26.09.1973 |
| Daagh | Yash Chopra | Sahir Ludhianvi | Laxmikant-Pyarelal | 30.03.1973 |
| Raajaa Raani | Sachin Bhowmick | Anand Bakshi | R.D. Burman | 15.01.1973 |
Other than the above movies Rajesh Khanna appeared in ‘Namak Haraam’ with Rekha, then in a documentary made by BBC i.e. ‘Bombay Superstar’, and also did a guest appearance in a Telugu movie ‘Bangaru Babu’ (as mentioned on Wikipedia).
Sharmila Tagore appeared in ‘Aa Galey Lag Jaa’ with Shashi Kapoor in 1973 apart from than the three movies with Rajesh Khanna as mentioned above.
“Raaja Raani” was directed by Sachin Bhowmick. He was also the writer of this movie.
Sachin Bhowmick (17 July 1930– 12 April 2011) was mainly as a writer (story and screenplays) for many movies in Hindi. ‘Raaja Raani’ was the only movie where he had done the direction for a movie.
The producer of ‘Raaja Rani’ was Jagdish Kumar and it was presented by J. Omprakash.
‘Raaja Raani’ had Sharmila Tagore, Rajesh Khanna, Raj Mehra, Iftekhar, David, Suresh, Brahm Bharadwaj, Asit Sen, Altaaf, Naaz, Dulari, Praveen Pal, Ravikant, Madhup Sharma, Kanu Rai, Uma Dutt, Ratna, Ashok Saxena, Master Manoj, Master Chiku, Baby Subiya, Surender Shore, Indrani Mukherjee, V.K. Sharma (new discovery) and many others.
Dialogues of this movie were written by Ramesh Pant. Editing of this movie was done by Pratap Dave.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.01.1973.
This movie had seven songs all written by Anand Bakshi and composed to music by R.D. Burman.
Here is the list of songs this movie had.
| SNo | Song Title | Singer/s | Posted On |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Phir aankh se aansoo barse | Lata Mangeshkar | |
| 02 | Haa… mere chehre ki taraf | Lata Mangeshkar | |
| 03 | Jaa re jaa maine tujhe | Lata Mangeshkar | |
| 04 | Main ek chor tu meri raani | Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar | 08.12.2017 |
| 05 | Aasmaan pe chaandni ka | Lata, Mukesh, Rajesh Khanna | 21.10.2008 |
| 06 | Naa tumse huyi naa hamse huyi | Lata Mangeshkar | |
| 07 | Jab andheraa hotaa hai | Asha Bhonsle, Bhupendra, chorus | 11.09.2009 |
(Two songs from this movie ‘Jab andheraa hotaa hai’ and ‘Main ek chor tu meri raani’ made it to the annual list of ‘Binaca Geetmala’ of that year 1973 and they stood at number ten and twenty-one respectively.).
We can see from the above table that three songs from this movie have so far been posted on the blog. The movie made its debut on 21.10.2008 on the blog.
The three songs were also the most well-known songs from this movie. The others songs were not that popular and are lesser known songs. But they play their role carrying the movie forward according to the demands of the story.
Today’s song is one such poignant song filmed on Sharmila Tagore. It is a background song in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar. (We can also see one male and one female artist present in the picturisation of this song whom I am unable to identify.)
I have not yet watched this movie however today’s song (including others) and the following declaration in the voice of Rajesh Khanna, in the beginning of this movie, can give readers the idea of the story of this movie.
“This film is dedicated to those innocent victims of circumstances – The Fallens – who aspire and desire to rehabilitate themselves and become good citizens.”
More details about the story of this movie have been mentioned by Peevesie’s Mom ji in her post with the song ‘main ek chor tu meri raani’ posted on the blog on 08.12.2017.
Let us now listen to today’s song.

Song-Phir aankh se aansoo barse (Raja Rani)(1973)Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD-R D Burman
Lyrics
phir aankh se aansoo barse

phir ek patang ki dor

phir ik gangaa ki mauj ne
badlaa madiraa ka roop
phir ik panghat ki raani
phir ik panghat ki raani
chal di marghat ki ore
likhne waalon se kehdo
likhey ek kahaani aur
kit jaaye ud kar panchhi

‘Ye Gulistaan Hamaara’ (1972) was produced and directed by Atma Ram under the banner of Guru Dutt Films Combined. The star cast included Dev Anand and Sharmila Tagore in the lead roles supported by Pran, Iftikhar, Sujit Kumar, Johny Walker, Jaishree T, Lalita Pawar, Kanan Kaushal, Ramesh Deo, Raj Mehra, Keshav Rana, Janakidas etc.
The story is woven around a bridge which is being constructed over Dihing River in North-East India for a good connectivity. But the local tribals are oppose to it. They think that this is one way of imposing the slavery on the local tribes in the name of infrastructural development. This sentiment is exploited by some foreign agents who instigate the tribal chieftain to destroy the under-construction bridge. It is at this point, Dev Anand as an Intelligence Bureau Officer is sent to supervise the construction of the bridge without any hindrances.
How Dev Anand achieves the objective by overcoming the tribal opposition to construction of the bridge is the rest of the story that moves forward. If the film was to be made in English, it would have been apt to name the film as ‘The Bridge on the River Dihing’ on the lines of a well- known Hollywood film ‘The Bridge on the River Kwai’.
The film’s outdoor shooting was done in Assam (near Digboi where a bridge was under construction), Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh. During the shooting of the film, the crew faced the hostile crowd led by the Naga Students Federation in Shillong. Some stone throwing incidences were also reported. The Naga students felt that it was a politically motivated film to insult the Naga tribal culture. Sharmila Tagore played the role of a Naga girl named ‘Sekrenyi’ which is the name of the holy festival of Angami Naga tribe. It is said that with the intervention of Bhupen Hazarika, the shooting of the film went on smoothly thereafter. The name of Sharmila Tagore’s character in the film was changed to ‘Soo Reni’.
In my younger days, I had read in the newspapers about the opposition of local tribals in laying the railway tracks in Meghalaya (Guwahati to Byrnihat). I understand that this line is yet to be operational. The same problem is faced for the railway track between Silchar and Imphal in Manipur. The main worry the local tribals is that good connectivity would lead to the influx of outsiders in their tribal belts threatening their own existence and culture. I feel that ‘Ye Gulistaan Hamaara’ (1972) was a ‘half-baked’ attempt to remove tribal population’s worries about the likely cultural dominance by the rest of India over the North-East’s tribal culture.
At the time of the release of the film, Naga Students Federation took out the protest march for banning the film on the ground of undermining the Naga tribal culture. They also felt that a couple of songs in the film sounded racial. In any case, they opposed the released of the film in Nagaland and Meghalaya. There were violent protests on the streets of Shillong. Finally, the film was released in 1973 after incorporating a notice in the film itself that ‘customs depicted in film, folk dances, dresses etc have no parallel with any of the tribes in Nagaland’. Some songs’ wordings were also changed to appease the protestors.
Initially, Danny Denzongpa was to perform the role of Dev Anand’s local associate in the film. S D Burman had already recorded a song in Danny voice along with Lata Mangeshkar. However, Johny Walker insisted with Atma Ram that he should also get a role in the film. Atma Ram agreed to take Johny Walker in place of Danny. However, Danny’s first song as a playback singer was retained which was picturised on Johny Walker. I personally feel that the role of a local person would have fitted well on Danny because of his facial feature. But at that time, Danny was a newcomer to protest. His consolation must have been the debut song he sang under the baton of S D Burman which was well appreciated.
‘Ye Gulistaan Hamaara’ (1972) had 7 songs of which six songs were written by Anand Bakshi. Six songs have been covered on the Blog, details of which areas under:
| Songs | Date of Posting | Singers |
|---|---|---|
| Gori gori gaaon ki gori re | 30/10/2008 | Kishore Kumar – Lata |
| Mera naam yaao mere paas aao | 17/01/2009 | Dany Denzongpa-Lata |
| Naina soyi soyi raina jaage jaage | 09/06/2013 | Lata Mangeshkar |
| Ho Tushima ri Tushima…aa gara toofaan | 31/10/2018 | Lata Mangeshkar |
| Hey suno meri baat chalo mere saath | 03/12/2020 | Kishore Kumar |
| Saare jahaan se achcha Hindostaan hamaara | 26/01/2021 | Sushma Shreshta and Kids -1, Chorus Version-2 |
I am presenting the 7th and the final song, ‘kya ye zindagi hai kaisi bebasi hai’ from the film which is rendered by Lata Mangeshkar, S D Burman and chorus. The song is written by Anand Bakshi. The song has its uniqueness in that when Lata Mengeshkar sings, the chorus voices parallelly sing some words which I am unable to decipher.
With this song, all the songs from the film ‘Ye Gulistaan Hamaara’ (1972) have been covered on the Blog.

I am not well-informed about Hindi films of 1980s and beyond, except about those that I have watched in the theatres or on Video sharing platforms. Between the late 1960s and early 1970s, I used to watch almost one film every week either on Saturdays or Sundays. My ‘over-exposure’ to films, mostly masala films, during this period created an aversion in me that discuraged me from watch theese films in the later years. Probably the theory of diminishing marginal utility was being applied to me. Over a period of time, my quota of watching films came down from once a week to 2-3 films a year which is still in force. Because of this, I have missed many entertaining and a few quality films released especially in 80s and 90s.
It may sound strange but until yesterday, I was not aware that there was a film titled ‘Swati’ (1986). I do not recall having heard about this film from any one of my relatives and friends who have interest in Hindi films. What attracted me to know more about this film was that first, it was a film from a well-known banner, Prasad Productions. Secondly, its ensemble of star cast included Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Meenakshi Seshadri, Madhuri Dixit, Vinod Mehra, Sarika, Akbar Khan among others. I was not aware that Meenakshi Seshadri and Madhuri Dixit had worked together in a film. I came to know later that both of them had earlier worked together in ‘Aawaara Baap’ (1985).
From the synopsis of the film’s story, it appeared that Shashi Kapoor and Sharmila Tagore worked in this film in the role of an elderly couple. The combination of the actors under a well-known film production banner motivated me to watch the film, the DVD of which was available on-line. The film was a remake of a Telugu film of the same title which was released in 1984 and became the box office hit. The film was also remade in Kannada as ‘Usha’ (1986). The story of the film is as under:
Dr. Rajendra (Shashi Kapoor) is a doctor who runs a nursing home. Sharda (Sharmila Tagore) works as a nurse with Rajendra. An event in her life has happened which has forced her to live a life in anonymity and as a single mother (I will not go into the details). She has a grown up daughter, Swati (Meenakshi Seshadri). She is under the impression that her father has deserted her mother which had made her a feminist and outspoken. She hates hypocrisies and prejudices which dominate our society.
During one of her argumentative encounters with a group of males, Swati meets Ram Mohan (Akbar Khan) who is associated with some leftist group and always seen with writing slogans on the walls. After the initial hate relations with Ram Mohan, Swati falls in love with him. Dr. Rajendra has been a widower with a grown-up daughter, Anandi (Madhuri Dixit), a tomboyish type girl. She is in love with Kapil (Raja Bundela) simply because her idol is cricketer, Kapil Dev. She is also fond of asking her father as well Kapil puzzles to solve.
Swati thinks that after her marriage with Ram Mohan, her mother will be left alone. She needs a companion. Swati knows that her mother and Dr Rajendra like each other but due to societal constraints, both can not think of upgrading their fondness into a life partnership. Swati persuades her mother and Dr Rajendra to get married. His daughter, Anandi is happy that she would get a mother. The marriage takes place and Swati and her mother shift to Dr. Rajendra’s house. Things are now well settled. Both Swati and Anandi gel very well too. Anandi’s marriage with Kapil is also fixed.
One day, Swati finds an old man lying on the road unconscious. She takes him to Dr. Rajendra’s nursing home. The patient come into consciousness and tells his life story to Swati. It becomes apparent that he is Satya Prakash, Sharda’s fiancé and Swati’s real father. If the real story comes into light, it may affect the marriage of Anandi with Kapil. It is also likely to affect the relations of Rajendra and Sharda. But Swati steers the unforeseen problem taking into the confidence Rajendra after revealing him the real story and taking a promise from him that he would not reveal his patient’s identity to her mother. Satya Prakash knows that he has no chance of survival. His wish is to see Sharda for the last time.
On the day of marriage of Anandi with Kapil, Both Rajendra and Swati arrange to bring Satya Prakash to the marriage venue. He gets to see Sharda during the marriage ceremony from a balcony. After the kanyadan ceremony is over, Satya Prakash is happy to see Sharda. With happiness displayed over his face, Satya Prakash dies.
I found the film in keeping with tradition of Prasad Productions which is known for producing films in the genre of family drama. In the standard of 1980s, the story of the film is bold and broad-minded. From the title of the film, it is apparent that it is Meenakshi Seshadri’s film. I have not seen any film of Meenakshi Seshadri. So, it is the first time I am watching her performance in this film which is outstanding. She has displayed all the moods of her character in the film – from a hard-core feminist, a kind hearted daughter for her mother as well for those affected by the prejudice towards them in the society. Her best scene is the poignant moments in the film when she has to solve the issues arising out of a sudden appearance of real father. Madhuri Dikshit as a step sister of Meenakshi Seshadri has a light comical role which she performs very well. She has a lively presence in the film. Shashi Kapoor and Sharmila Tagore in the role of elderly couple look elegant. Dialogues by Rahi Masoom Reza is catchy.
Despite having good share of melodramatic contents, the film is not a tear-jerker. I found the film absorbing.
‘Swati’ (1986) had 5 songs none of which has been represented in the Blog. I present the first song from the film ‘shaadi mubaarak bole shehnaayi’ to appear on the Blog. The song is sung by Anuradha Paudwal and Alka Yagnik. The words are that of Anand Bakshi which are set to music by Laxmikant-Pyarelal. It is a marriage song picturised on Meenakshi Seshadri and Madhuri Dixit on the occasion of the marriage of their parents Sharmila Tagore and Shashi Kapoor.
With this, ’Swati’ (1986) makes its debut on the Blog.

“Tyaag”(1976) was Produced by N S Kabir and directed by Deendayaal Sharma for Films and Films Interbnational Production, Bombay. The movie had Sharmila Tagore, Rajesh Khanna, Master Tito, Sulochana Latkar, Prem Chopra, Mukri, Asit Sen, Murad, Amrit Patel, Tuntun, Kamal Kapoor, Chandrima Bhaduri, Mohan Jerry, Mahendra Zaveri, Om prakash, Nayim, Billimoria, Anand, Lalita Kumari etc with guest appearances by Bindu, Master Satyajit, Dheeraj, Gurnam Singh, Sona, Raza Murad in it.
N S Kabir was Sharmila Tagore’s secretary, so one could reasonably guess that Sharmila Tagore was the actual producer. The movie had the same lead pair as that of the blockbuster “Aradhana”(1969). In fact, the songs of the movie were similar to the songs of “Aradhana”(1969).
There was one song that had the term “Kore kaaghaz” , seeking to recreate the magic of the song “Kora kaaghaz tha ye man mera” song from “Aradhana”(1969).
“Tyaag”(1976) had five songs in it. two songs have been covered in the blog including the above mentioned song.
Today is the birth anniversary of S D Burman (1 october 1908- 31 october 1975). On this occasion, here is a song from “Tyaag”(1976). This song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata. Anand Bakshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman.
The song is picturised on Rajesh Khanna and Sharmila Tagore. Watching the picturisation, one can clearly see that this song seeks to serve the same purpose that the song “roop tera mastaana” serves in “Aradhana”(1969). 🙂
Too bad that the moviegoers did not treat the movie as the box office equivalent of “Aradhana”(1976). 🙂
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Avinash Scrapwala.

The connoisseurs of Hindi film music of the 1960s and 1970s would recall the four melodious songs sung by Geeta Dutt in ‘Uski Kahaani’ (1966) and ‘Anubhav’ (1971). Fans of Gulzar would know that all these four songs have come from his pen. But I will not be surprised if only few of them would remember that all these four songs had been set to music by Kanu Roy. Among these few persons, most of them would not have known his real identity. In his case, it was not only of the confusion of same name but also the confusion with a wrong family tree.
Most of the websites including Wikipedia says that Kanu Roy was an actor and music director who started his acting career in 1940s and switched over to music direction from 1960 onwards. His filmography in IMDb shows him both as an actor and the music director. In some websites, Kanu Roy as a music director has been discussed with the photograph of the actor, Kanu Roy. He is also been wrongly associated with the family of Geeta Dutt as one of her brothers. The facts are:
1. Kanu Roy, the actor and Kanu Roy, the music director were different persons. Kanu Roy, the actor came to Bombay (Mumbai) in early 1940s to join Bombay Talkies. On the basis of Gulzar’s interview which appeared in a ‘Filmfare’ issue of 2012, Kanu Roy, the music director came to Bombay sometime in mid-1950s. (My guess is that he may have come with Basu Bhattacharya who was his close friend).
2. Kanu Roy, the actor was never a music director. Kanu Roy, the music director never acted in films.
3. Kanu Roy, the music director was not a brother of Geeta Dutt. I have seen a photograph of Geeta Dutt’s full family before her marriage. In this photograph, there is no Kanu Roy. The names of Geeta Dutt’s four brothers are Mihir Roy, Ranjit Roy, Mukul Roy and Milan Roy.
With multiple confusion about his name, even the basic profile of the music director, Kanu Roy is difficult to get. I could get some information from Gulzar’s interview published in one of the Filmfare issues of 2012 which is available on http://www.tanqeed.com . In this interview, Gulzar talked about his association as a lyricist with Kanu Roy which I have summarized below with my marginal inputs.
Kanu Roy had picked up the musical notes from Bengal. He began his career by assisting music director, Salil Choudhury who also had Kanu Ghosh as his Assistant Music Director. It seems Kanu Roy was a Welder by profession and had worked on the upkeeping of the Howrah Bridge. He was an introvert by nature and had in him a mix of timid and humble nature.
Basu Bhattacharya and Kanu Roy were great friends. It was Basu Bhattacharya who gave Kanu Roy his first break as a music director in ‘Uski Kahaani’ (1966) which he produced and directed at shoestring budget. Subsequently, he worked in another five films of Basu Bhattacharya. Because of the low budget films, Basu Bhattacharya would never allow Kanu Roy to have more than 6-8 musicians (as against 50-100 musicians the music directors like Shankar-Jaikishan, Naushad, O P Nayyar etc would have in their orchestra). Also, Kanu Roy would not get the regular shifts in the recording studios for rehearsals of the songs. He had to manage in the early morning hours of the recording studio. He did not have a bargaining power with Basu Bhattacharya to ask for more musicians. (Probably for the same reason, he may not have got the playback singers of his choice). It is remarkable that with these constraints, Kanu Roy could composed melodious songs in Basu Bhattacharya’s films.
Kanu Roy’s career ended with his life on 20/12/1981. He lived in poverty and died in poverty.
During his musical journey from 1966-80, Kanu Roy composed 28 songs in 8 films, of which 6 films were of Basu Bhattacharya. Of the remaining two films, one film ‘Mayuri’ (1970s) remained unreleased. Though his contributions to Hindi film music in terms of numbers were low, many of his melodious songs still linger on. Unfortunately, his name may not ring bell for many who may still enjoy those melodious songs.
Although most of Kanu Roy’s melodious songs have been covered in the Blog, I found one song which I liked for its all-round excellence – lyrics, rendition, melody, composition and the picturization. The song is ‘pahchaan to thhi pahchaana nahi’ from ’Griha Pravesh’ (1979). The song is rendered by Chandrani Mukherjee on the words of Gulzar. Having watched the film, I feel that this song summarises the theme of the film.
Amar (Sanjeev Kumar) and Mansi (Sharmila Tagore) has been married for 10 years with 8-year old boy. During this period, some staleness in their relationship develops. Both are under the illusion that they are in love but in practice, they are just being together under one roof. Now their marriage is in the verge of collapse when Amar develops affairs with his office typist Sapna (Sarika). He is caught in a bind in that while he loves Sapna, in the back of his mind, he is also emotionally attached to his family.
Finally, Amar tells Mansi of his intention to divorce her to marry Sapna. After the initial shock, Mansi agrees for divorce on the condition that he should bring Sapna to the house to meet her. The reason is that Sapna has seen Amar in the office as an Accountant and develop the liking for him in an office environment. But she has not seen him in his house where the environment is different.
Before Sapna visit to her house, Mansi gets her house painted. She undergoes herself to a new make-over. While doing this, the song under discussion plays in the background. Sapna visits her house with Amar. After a brief meeting, Mansi takes Amar aside and tell him that she is ready to leave him for Sapna. After the meeting, Mansi tells Amar to drop Sapna to her house. However, when crossing the road, Sapna walks over to the other side of the road while Amar gets stranded on the opposite side because of a marriage procession on the road. In the midst of the orchestra in the marriage procession playing ‘tu Ganga ki mauj mein Jamuna ki dhara’, both Amar and Sapna take leave by waving hands at each other. The scene is symbolic of conveying the message that Amar has a change of heart. The film ends with Amar returning home having coffee with Mansi and his son with the replaying of the film’s song ‘zindagi phoolon ki nahi, phoolon ki tarah mehkti rahe’.
The lyrics of the song under discussion are simple and convey retrospection on the part of a housewife who forgets to give attention to herself. Instead, much of her time is spent in the kitchen, looking after husband and the child and upkeep of the house. In this milieu, she forgets her own identity.
In keeping with the low budget of the film, Kanu Roy has used only three main musical instruments in this song – Sarod, Sitar and what I believe to be Khol (Bangla Dholak) which one can hear in a low rhythm as the song is rendered. The song starts with a prelude of Sarod and Sitar and the same instruments are used in the interludes of the song. Chandrani Mukherjee, who is the sister-in-law of Bappi Lahiri, has rendered the song with poignant feeling in keeping with the mood of the situation. The Audio clip is longer with the same lyrics because it has the longer prelude music than in the video clip.
This song sums up the story of a housewife in a middle-class society.

Song-Pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin(Grih Pravesh)(1979) Singer-Chandrani Mukherjee, Lyrics-Gulzar, MD-Kanu Roy
Lyrics
pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin
maine apne aap ko jaana nahin
pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin
maine apne aap ko jaana nahin
pehchaan to thhi
jab dhoop barasti hai sar pe to
paanv mein chhaanv khilti hai
main bhool gayi thhi chhaanv agar
milti hai to dhoop mein milti hai
is dhoop aur chhaanv ke khel mein kyun
jeene ka ishaara samjha nahin
pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin
maine apne aap ko jaana nahin
pehchaan to thhi
main jaagi rahi kuchh sapnon mein
aur jaagi huyi bhi soyi rahi
jaane kin bhool bhulaiyya mein kuchh
bhatki rahi kuchh khoyi rahi
jeene ke liye main marti rahi
jeene ka ishaara samjha nahin
pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin
maine apne aap ko jaana nahin
pehchaan to thhi pehchaana nahin
maine apne aap ko jaana nahin
pehchaan to thhi
