#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
———————————————————–—-
Today I am presenting a rare and lesser heard duet sung by Rafi Saab and Asha Bhonsle. That adds one more to their tally on this blog. I do not remember to have listened to this song earlier, but it is nice hummable song to listen to.
This song is from the un-released/shelved movie titled as ‘Shehar Se Door’. Sources mention that the records for this movie were released in the year 1972, but the movie was never released.
‘Shehar Se Door’ or ‘Shahar Se Door’ was directed by Chaman Nille for ‘Maya Deep International, Bombay’. It had Subhash Ghai, Neena, Heena Kausar, Roopesh Kumar, Nadira, Johny Walker, Raj Mehra, Krishan Dhawan, Anita Guha, V. Gopal, Jankidas, Uma Dhawan, Uma Khosla, Jerry, Monto, Satya Devi, Madhu Kapoor, Tarun Bose and others. Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980) lists five songs for this movie written by Verma Malik. Music for this movie was composed by Sonik-Omi. Manna Dey, Mohd Rafi, Minoo Puroshottam, and Asha Bhonsle were the playback singers for this movie.

Mukesh and his Composers – 45
Uncle Manohar Lal Sonik and nephew Om Prakash Sonik formed a composer-duo with the name Sonik-Omi and left behind some of the most memorable songs in HFM. However, in spite of their debut film Dil Ne Phir Yaad Kiya (1966) creating musical history and many other subsequent songs in other films becoming popular, their name and fame never reached the heights it ought to have.
Ishwar Bhakti (with Giridhar) (1951) and Mamta with Hansraj Behl (1952) were probably the two films wherein Sonik composed music without Omi.
Sonik experimented with singing and assisting other composers and later when Omi joined films, he too assisted other composers for some time.
Dil Hi Tho Hai (1963) under Roshan is probably the first film where they are credited as Assistant Music Directors as Sonik-Omi. In this film, B. L Rawal must have got to know the skills of the duo and in 1966 independently allotted them Dil Ne Phir Yaad Kiya (1966).
