The tinsel town industry is a troubling mix of good and bad fortunes. All the zest and joy that we witness in front of the arc lights is a small part of this business. The larger part of mixed fortunes, career heartbreaks and un-celebrated talents is in the shadow world behind the arc lights. This world is invisible to the viewers because the glare of the arc lights does not allow a view into the darkness behind. For every success story that we celebrate, there are ten times more stories of despair and dejection.

Films once released, are a cultural heritage forever (of course subject to preservation and survival). But in my opinion it is the music and the song of the films that leaves a stronger and a more lasting impression on the minds of the film going and music listening audiences.

In the 90+ years of talkie film industry in India, close to a hundred thousand songs have been created, recorded, used in films and also released for consumption by the music lovers. Hundreds, maybe thousands of artists – music directors, musicians, lyricists, singers, sound recordists – have been associated with the envisioning and then the creation of the film songs. The sad part is that even the most involved and the most serious lovers of music, we remember just a handful of artists. It is not just a limitation of the human memory retention. It is also the fact that the industry itself, and the associated media, have over the years celebrated just those few handful artists, and neglected to pay attention to the others. And that is why I said above – “The tinsel town industry is a troubling mix of good and bad fortunes”.

Serious connoisseurs of this art form are well aware of the many names that should have, but never did make it to the top tier of the industry. This post touches upon one such unsung talent, whose creations indicate the presence of an enchanting mind at work behind the melodies. The name is C Arjun.

Arjun Parmanand Chandnani – born on 1st September 1933 in Karachi, had a natural affinity from music, inherited from his father who was a singer and a musician. At the time of partition in 1947, Arjun was just 14 years old. His family migrated from Karachi (now in Pakistan) to Baroda. He came to Bombay in the mid 1950s. Of course, the initial years was the time of struggle to prove himself. He worked with Bulo C Rani as assistant during this period.

In 1958, he got his first break as an independent music director when he composed for the Sindhi film ‘Abana’ (1958). The film and its music were a success with the Sindhi speaking population. The film has a wonderful song of Holi festival – “Holi Aayee Re Aayee Re Holi Holi”, and another fun song “Daal Chhola Double. . .” which became very popular as a sales pitch song of a rice-chhola meal seller. The song is available online and is a real fun listen, with Tuntun (aka Uma Devi) visible on screen with her antics.

Moving on, in 1960, he got another important break in his career, this time composing for the mainstream Hindi cinema. The film is ‘Road No. 303’. A low budget film, with lesser known stars, cannot be expected to be a box office victory. But the musical score – the songs are something to listen to – “Pehli Pehli Baar Miley Hain Do Deewaane, Achcha Ji” sung by Geeta Dutt and Rafi Sb, “Dil Ko Ye Kya Hua” in the voice of Asha ji, “Sun Lo Mehrban Mushkil Jeena Yahan” a wonderful creation in the voice of Geeta Dutt.

More work followed, although not in terms of any well known banner, or in terms of number of films. Averaging one film, or less, per year, nonetheless, he continued to give wonderful music no matter the films were all low budget. In 1961 came ‘Main Aur Mera Bhai’. More memorable songs– especially “Aaye Ho To Jaane Ka Bahaana Na Milega” sung by Asha ji. “Ho Gori Zulm Kare Zulf Ka Bikhar Jaana” in the voice of Rafi Sb, and the wonderful Asha – Mukesh duet “Main Abhi Gair Hoon”.

1964 was the year of the film ‘Punarmilan’. Most people would remember neither the film, not the associated credits. But tell them the song “Paas Baitho Tabiyat Behal Jaayegi” in the voice of Rafi Sb, and there will be an immediate recognition. This ghazal by Indiwar has become a timeless classic that stands along with the major filmi ghazal creations of all times. 1965 and we have the film ‘Ek Saal Pehle’ with the wonderful Asha Talat duet – “Nazar Utha Ke Ye Rangeen Samaa Rahe Na Rahe”; 1966 and we have another classic duet by Rafi Sb and Suman Kalyanpur – “Hamne Teri Jafaa Ka Wafaa Naam Rakh Diya” from the film ‘Chale Hain Sasural’. In 1966, we also heard the timeless popular Rafi-Talat duet “Gham Ki Andheri Raat Mein”  from film ‘Sushila’. The pattern continues with the films which one does not care to remember – ‘Lamboo In Hong Kong’ (1967), ‘Mangu Dada’ (1970), ‘Ustad Pedro’ (1971), ‘Guru Aur Chela’ (1973) – all relatively unknown films but all carrying gems of the genius of C Arjun.

And then, in 1975 came another low budget film that should also have been consigned to the list of unknowns, but it became a fluke and unexpected blockbuster hit – ‘Jai Santoshi Maa’. The success of the film may have brought some financial respite to the composer, but did not do any wonders to his career which continued to be in low budget bracket. He continued to create music for films till 1983, his last film as an independent music director being ‘Sati Naag Kanya’.

He passed away on 30th April, 1992, literally with his boots on. He had a heart attack while working at recording studio. Just about a month ago, we passed by the 31st remembrance day for him.

The song presented with this post is a delightful all female duet in the voices of Suman Kalyanpur and Kamal Barot. The film is ‘Ek Saal Pehle’ from 1965. The film is produced under the banner of SB Films, Bombay and is directed by Dharam Kumar. The star cast as listed in the Geet Kosh is Sujit Kumar, Sayeeda Khan, KN Singh, Jagirdar, Sherry, Asit Sen, Sundar, Neelam, Rajan Kapoor, Sunanda, Ramlal, Jilani, Mirajkar, Helen, Madhumati, and Maqbool. Looking at the star cast, it is my guess that this song must have been filmed as a twin dance song on Helen and Madhumati.

There are 5 songs for the film listed in Geet Kosh. The songs of this film are penned by Indiwar and Jaan Nisar Akhtar. This particular song is written by Indiwar. Interesting note – four of the songs are released on gramophone records, and the 5th song is not. As per a footnote in the Geet Kosh, the singer for the 5th song is identified as Krishna Kalle by C Arjun himself.

Wonderful music and wonderful rhythm – let us listen and enjoy this song.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
———————————————————————

The song being presented in this post is from an obscure movie “Mohabbat Aur Jung-1967”.

Very less information is available in HFGK Vol-IV (1961-1970) about this movie.

There is no information available about the director, cast etc. However the name of the production banner is mentioned as ‘Uppal Productions, Bombay’.

The song list for this movie contains two songs only which are written by Taj Bhopali. Iqbal Qureshi is the music composer for this movie.

Following is the details of the two songs mentioned for this movie in HFGK.

SNo Song Title Singer/s Posted On
01 Mere hamdam Suman Kalyanpur
02 Samaa khoobsoorat hai Krishna Kalle 01.02.2018

HFGK leaves space for the possibility of this movie having more songs.

It can be seen from the above table one song from this movie has been posted on the blog on 01.02.2018.

Today we listen to the second song of this movie which is in the voice of Suman Kalyanpur.

Lyrics are by Taj Bhopali and music is composed by Iqbal Qureshi.

Let us now listen to the song which is a nice song to listen to…

(I guess this is a club-dance song and also a female drunkard song 🙂 )

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.123
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (24 May 2013),seven songs from seven digfferent movies was covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
8120 Ajeeb hai zindagi ki manzil Aakaash(1953) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now
8121 Beemaar e muhabbat ka itna sa fasaana hai Teesri Gali (1958) 4 songs covered out of 6 by now
8122 Sainyya haay haay haay tere gaaon mein Opera House (1961) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now
8123 Chale aana sanam uthhaaye kadam Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara(1963) 2 songs covered out of 6 by now
8124 Umr to pyaar karne ki aayi Zindagi(1976) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now
8125 Chhodo ye nigaahon ka ishaara Inkaar(1977) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now
8126 Kaanton se chhedte hain mere jigar ke chhaale Qeemat(1946) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now

We observe that three movies (out of seven) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (on 24 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (24 May 2023). Out of these four unYIPPEED movies, two movies have only one song left to be covered but that last song could not be located, so these two movies cannot be taken up under BTYC. That leaves us with juste eligible for BTYC and whose remaining songs are available.

“Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara”(1963) was produced by Tahirbhai Akbarali Khety and directed by K Parvez for Mamta movies, Bombay. The movie had Naaz, Subi Raj, Achla(Sachdev), Helen, Madan Puri, Sadhna Chowdhry, Sham Kumar, Lotan, Baby Ismat, Bhagwan etc.

“Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara”(1963) had six songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.

Here is the third song from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur. Majrooh sultanpuri is the lyricist. Raj Ratan Raj (actual name Abdul Majeed Sheikh) is the music director.

Only audio of the song is vailable. It is the title song of the song. So it may have been lip synced by the leading lady of the movie, who appears to be Naaz. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of the song.

Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

tan ka naata pal do pal ka
tan ka naata pal do pal ka
mann ka mel kabhi na toote

roop jawaani aani-jaani
iske bharose kya kehna
mann se mann ka mel miley to
is naate ka kya kehna aa aa
is naate ka kya kehna
zor laga le laakh zamaaana
zor laga le laakh zamaaana
pyaar ki khaaki dor na toote
roop ka rang to pad jaaye pheeka

sab koi dekhe chaand gagan ko
koi kaali raat na dekhe
jiske bina wo khil na sake re
aisee anokhi baat na dekhe
aisee anokhi baat na dekhe
mann ka bandhan saancha bandhan
mann ka bandhan saancha bandhan
tan ke saare bandhan jhoothhe
roop ka rang to pad jaaye pheeka
pyaar ka rang kabhi na chhoote

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutant Movie – Raajkumaar Sooraj (UR))
——————————————-———————————————

Welcome all to this post of mine which is coming after a short break. To resume the ‘musical journey’ on the blog I am once again taking readers through the ‘seventies’. T song that I am presenting is from an ‘Un-released’ movie from the ‘1970s’.

This movie is titled as ‘Raajkumaar Sooraj’.

As per HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980) this movie was a ‘Bharat Kala Mandir’ presentation.

The director’s name of this movie is not known as HFGK does not mention it.

However, during my browsing for songs of this movie I have come across a couple of links which have some information about this movie. One is from an account whose name is ‘Bharat Kala Mandir’ itself. As per this link the year of this movie is mentioned as ‘1962’ (which I guess should be correct going by the names included in the cast of this movie).

The cast of this movie has the names of Azad, Indira, B.M. Vyas, and Ratnamala.

This link also mentions A. Kumar as the director of this movie and S.P. Sharma as the producer of this movie.

However, there is another link which contains all the five songs of this movie and this link mentions the year of this movie as ‘1973’.

As per HFGK Vol-V Iqbal was the music composer for this movie. HFGK mentions five songs for this movie and it is possible that this movie had some more songs which were not recorded or not known.

Prem Bhatani and Saba Fazli are the lyricists for the songs in this movie and they penned two and three song lyrics respectively.

Today I present a wonderful duet or gem of song from this ‘unreleased/incomplete’ movie which is sung by Suman Kalyanpur and Mohd Rafi.

Listening to this song will take readers to the refreshing memories of the duets from the ‘sixties’. I am sure this duet deserves to be in the list of the ‘all time hits’ duets sung by Mohd Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur. But unfortunately it remained unknown and a ‘forgotten’ one as the movie was not completed or not released.

Let us now enjoy this classic composition and welcome ‘Raajkumaar Sooraj’ on the blog.

I would request our seniors in this group and knowledgeable readers to add more information about this movie and its songs.


Song-Dekhiye aap hamen is tarah na dekha keeje (Rajkumar Sooraj)(UR)(1962) Singers-Suman Kalyanpur, Mohd Rafi, Lyrics-Saba Fazli, MD-Iqbal

Lyrics

dekhiye aap hamen
dekhiye aap hamen
is tarah naa dekhaa keeje ae
dekhiye aap hamen
is tarah naa dekhaa keeje ae
aap bhi mere khayaalon mein
naa aaya keeje
aap bhi mere khayaalon mein
naa aaya keeje

dekhiye aap hamen
is tarah naa dekhaa keeje

aankhon hi aankhon mein
jaadu saa jagaa dete ho o
aankhon hi aankhon mein ae ae
aankhon hi aankhon mein
jaadu saa jagaa dete ho o
dil mein khaamosh saa
toofaan uthhaa dete ho
is tarah se naa aa
is tarah se naa
meri duniyaa pe
chhaayaa keeje ae
dekhiye aap hamen
is tarah naa dekhaa keeje

ye damaktaa huaa chehraa
ye machalti zulfen aen
ye damaktaa huaa aa aa
ye damaktaa huaa chehraa
ye machalti zulfen aen
nashe mein doobi huyi
haaye ye bojhal palkein
aap aise naa aa
aap aise naa mere hosh
udaayaa keeje ae

dekhiye aap hamen
is tarah naa dekhaa keeje

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————

On our blog we have over five thousand four hundred songs from the decade of 1950s viz from the years of 1951-1960.
In comparison to that the decade of the 1960s or the years 1961-1970 have over four thousand songs. No doubt the golden years of Hindi cinema of the ‘fifties’ had produced many melodious and immortal songs. For me the years of 1961-1970 as well were the years of the glorious music period of the Hindi Film Industry. The great composers from the industry carried forward the legacy from the earlier years and continued to produce melodious music even in the subsequent years.

Today we will be listening to one such melodious song from the year ‘1963’. This composition will remind readers of another song from the same composer but with a different lyrics writer.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Been Ka Jaadoo-1963’.

This movie was introduced on the blog on 18.07.2016 when its song ‘mere paanv ki paayaliya kaahe ko jhanke’ was presented by our respected Shri Sudhir ji.

“Been Ka Jaadoo-1963” was directed by N. Rajesh for ‘S.A. Films, Bombay’ and it was a ‘costume drama’ movie.

Very less information is available about this movie in HFGK Vol-IV (1961-1970).

The cast of this movie mentioned in HFGK included Mahipal, Helen, Kammo, Tiwari, Mohan Choti and Ulhas.

“Been Ka Jaadoo-1963” has six songs which were all written by B.D. Mishra. Music for this movie was composed by S.N. Tripathi.

The voices that were used for playback singing are of Suman Kalyanpur and Mahendra Kapoor only. Out of the six songs three songs are solo songs sung by Suman Kalyanpur, two are duets of Suman Kalyanpur and Mahendra Kapoor and one song has chorus with Suman Kalyanpur.

Today we present the second song from this movie on the blog. This song is a duet song sung by Mahendra Kapoor and Suman Kalyanpur. Only audio of this song is available.

I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and on the picturisation of its songs.

Let us now listen to this duet song .

janam janam ka saath hamaaraa

hamse jo kismat roothhe naa
janam janam ka saath hamaaraa
saath kabhi ye chhoote naa aa

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (A tribute to MD-Robin Chatterjee)
——————————————-——————————————————

In this post we pay our tributes to music composer Robin Chatterjee on his ‘Remembrance Anniversary’ today. As per the ‘anniversary dates mentioned on the blog page of ‘, his date of passing is mentioned as 03rd April’1976.

Robin Chatterjee was born on 08.01.1914.

He composed music for several Bangla and Hindi movies and had worked as ‘sound recordist’ too.

On this blog we have the following movies represented where Robin Chatterjee was the music director:-

List in alphabetical order –

‘Africa-1954’, ‘Chimney Ka Dhuaan-1973’, ‘Dhaake Ki Malmal-1956’, ‘Firdaus-1953’, ‘Majboor-1954’, ‘Pehli Shaadi-1953’, ‘Raaj Laxmi-1945’, ‘Ratnadeep-1952’, ‘Sabyasaachi-1948’, ‘Sahib Bibi Golam (Bangla)-1956’, ‘Sainyya Se Bhaile Milanwa (Bhojpuri)-1964’, ‘Shobha-1954’, ‘Tum Aur Main-1947’, & ‘Uttar Phalguni (Bangla)-1963’.

Today as a tribute to him I am presenting a song from the ‘1973’ movie ‘Chimani Ka Dhuaan’.

This movie had made its debut on the blog on 13.01.2016 when the first song from this movie was presented by ‘yours sincerely’. 🙂

‘Chimani Ka Dhuaan-1973’ was directed by Prabhat Mukherjee for Kamayani Pictures, Calcutta.
It had Motilal, Balraj Sahani, Helen, Achla Sachdev, Dhumal, Sabita Chatterjee, Madhukar, Baby Madhu, Harsh, Sharminder, Mohan Ojha and Shefali.

R.S.Preetam was the lyricist of this movie, while the music was composed by Robin Chatterjee.

It seems that ‘Chimani Ka Dhuaan-1973’ must be an obscure movie of its time, as very little information of this movie is available in the domain.

As per HFGK this movie was passed by Censor on 31.12.1973.

HFGK mentions that as per the films promotional booklet it is clear that the film was earlier named as ‘Praayschit’.

This film has total seven songs (as per HFGK) where Aarti Mukherjee, Mahendra Kapoor, Pranab Patnaik, Sandhya Mukherjee, Shipra Bose and Suman Kalyanpur have given their voices to the songs.

Today we listen to the second song from this movie which is sung by Suman Kalyanpur. Lyrics are by R.S. Preetam and as mentioned above music is composed by Robin Chatterjee.

This song is a nice song to listen to. However only the audio of this song is available.

I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.

Song-Aaj rotey nain mere (Chimney Ka Dhuaan)(1973) Singer-Suman Kalyanpur, Lyrics-R S Preetam, MD-Robin Chatterjee

Lyrics

aaj rote nain mere
aaj rote nain mere ae
dhhal gaye sapne sunehare ae
aaj rote nain mere

yaad aati wo ghadi
jab baji shehnaayiyaan
yaad aati wo ghadi ee
yaad aati wo ghadi ee
jab baji shehnaayiyaan
khil uthhaa thha jab chaman
gaa uthhaa thha aashiyaan
bas gayi sapnon ki nagri
bas gayi sapnon ki nagri
thhe bhare armaan re ae
ae mere bhagwaan re
aaj rote nain mere

tinkaa tinkaa jod ke hamne
ghar basaaya thha kabhi
tinkaa tinkaa jod ke hamne
ghar basaaya thha kabhi
khushiyaan khadi thhin har qadam
gham na koi thha kabhi
lag gayi par aag aisi
lag gayi par aag aisi
sukh huye awsaan re
ae mere bhagwaan re

uthh rahe hain laal sholey
pad gaye dil mein phaphole ae
kya dashaa aa apni dikhaayen
ham tumhe bhagwaan re ae
aaj rote nain mere ae
dhhal gaye sapne sunehare ae
aaj rote nain mere ae
