In this post I am presenting a ‘club-dance-song’ sung by Suman Kalyanpur. I came across this song only yesterday. Songs are this genre is mostly sung by Asha Bhonsle and we have been listening to many such Asha Bhonsle songs on this blog these days. So when I came across this song in the voice of Suman Kalyanpur I thought I should present it here.

I have no idea how many such songs Suman Kalyanpur has sung in Hindi Films. This song is picturised as a typical 1970s club dance song on Jayshree T.

“Cobra Girl”(1963) was directed by Nanabhai Bhatt for Rekha Chitra, Bombay. This movie had Raagini, Mahipal, Tiwari, Maruti, Ulhas. Surekha, Rajan Haksar, Gopal Sahgal, Mridula, Manorama, Nazeer Kashmiri, Abhimanyu Sharma, Madhumati, Sarika Rani, Nayna etc in it.

This Kaalpnik (fantasy) movie had eight songs in it. Five songs have been covered in the past.

Here is the sixh song from “Cobra Girl”(1963) to appear in the blog. This song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur and chorus. Prem Dhawan is the lyricist. Music is composed by S N Tripathi. The song is picturised as a wedding ritual song where saheli of the bride is singing this song.

I am unable to identify the ladies visible in the picturisation. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify them.

PS-Our inhouse expert Sadanand Kamath jee informs us that the song has a sad version as well. He also informs that the bride is played by Surekha and her mother by Mridula Raani. After the happy version of the song, the bride gets kidnapped and killed. Seeing that her mother too dies of shock. That leads to the sad version of the song where would be bride’s brother Mahipal has to carry out the last rites of his sister as well as brother.

Prakashchandra, our inhouse identifier of artists, identifies the actress lip syncing the song as Manjula.

Happy version

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Anarbala-1961’. This movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time. However the songs of this movie that are available are great songs. This observation has often been made by our members that these so called B or C grade movies had some great music in them. These movies may have become obscure, but their music deserve better fate

‘Anarbala-1961’ is one such movie. The movie appears to be lost, but some of its songs have survived and have become available online.

Today, December 25, 2025, is the 10th Remembrance Day of Sadhana, the fashion icon of Hindi cinema in the 1960s. She was also called the ‘mystery girl’ because she acted in three mystery genre of films one after another. In her short filmy career of about 15 years, she had a high success ratio in terms of hit films. She worked with top directors like Bimal Roy, Raj Khosla, Yash Chopra, Hrishikesh Mukherjee and H S Rawail. Her co-stars included Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Raj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Rajesh Khanna and Dharmendra. Sadhana came and conquered the Hindi film industry in the 1960s and by the end of 1970s, she virtually vanished from the film industry.

The song in this post is from an unreleased movie ‘Rani Chandravati-1960s’. One song from this movie has been presented on the blog earlier by our Shree Sudhir jee.

Not much information about this movie is available in Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970) where this movie is mentioned under the section of Un-Released movies. Geet Kosh lists six songs leaving space for the possibility that more songs might have been recorded for this movie. The singer’s names for all the six songs have been mentioned. And they include Suman Kalyanpur and Subir Sen; with Suman Kalyanpur having three solos and one solo by Subir Sen. Music for this movie was composed by S.N. Tripathi. Out of the six songs in the movie two have been identified as penned by lyricist B.D. Mishra.

In this short write-up, I present a duet song, ‘gulaabi nazaare nazaare gulaabi’ rendered by Mohammed Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur from an obscure film, ‘Lakhpati’ (1991). It was the only film produced and directed by Jal Baliwala. The film was certified by Censor Board on April 5, 1991, but it could not get the theatrical release. Later, the film was released on VCD. I have given the story of the film in my earlier article while covering the song, nashe mein choor nazar hai mujhe.

The musical composition of at least three songs including the one under discussion gives a feel of the golden period of Hindi film music of 1960s and I am not completely off the mark. Music director, Iqbal Qureshi came into prominence in the 1960s. Lata Mangeshkar was not singing with Mohammed Rafi in most part of 1960s. The song under discussion is a duet of Rafi with Suman Kalyanpur.
