——————————————-—————————
Most of us are familiar with this lovely song ‘ham dono milke kaaghaz pe dil ke chitthi likhenge, jawaab aayegaa’ from the movie ‘Tumhaari Kasam-1978’. This song used to be played frequently on radio when I was growing up(going by the release date of the movie I was just above ten years of age then).
I like this song very much and so when I prepared my list of songs that bring back memories this was by default included in my list. But what about other songs from this movie? I think they were not notable songs and were easily forgotten?
I was not aware about the other songs from this movie until this article when I looked upon to present a song from this movie on the blog.
‘Tumhaari Kasam-1978’ had made its debut on the blog well in the initial days of the blog i.e., on 04.10.2008.
So, today after a gap of ’12 years,05 months, and twenty-one days (‘4555’ days – including 24.03.2021) we are adding the second song of this movie. And I have deliberately chosen a lesser-known song from this movie sung by Preeti Sagar and lip synced on screen by Master Rajoo.
“Tumhaari Kasam-1978” was directed by Ravi Chopra for ‘Associated Films & Finance Corporation’. It was produced by C.V.K. Shastry.
This movie had Jeetendra, Navin Nischol, Moushumi Chatterjee, Padmini Kapila, Master Rajoo, Vimal Ahuja, Jagdish Raj, Prem Sagar, Achala Sachdev, Narbada Shankar, Lina Das, Ranjeet Sood, Anand Balraj, R.S. Chopra, Master Shaka and others. Komila Virk, Alka, Roopesh Kumar and Pradeep Kumar make special appearance in this movie.
Story of this movie was written by Tikam. Screenplay and dialogues of this movie were written by Kamleshwar.
Pran Mehra was the Chief Editor for this movie and Editing was done by S.B. Mane with Pradeep Mehra as his assistant.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 09.03.1978.
This movie had four songs (including one two-part song) written by Anand Bakshi. Music was composed by Rajesh Roshan.
Lata Mangeshkar, Mukesh, Asha Bhonsle, Preeti Sagar and Kishore Kumar give their voices to the songs in this movie.
here is a brief about this movie taken from ‘Wikipedia’;
Vidya (Moushumi Chatterjee) and Raja (Raju Shrestha) live in poverty. They get separated due to certain circumstances. Vidya starts working at Anand’s (Jeetendra) house as a maid. Raja is forced to beg for a local gang. While Vidya is attending to her chores, the alcoholic, Anand, tries to molest her. She escapes but is unfortunately hit by a speeding vehicle driven by Sunil Verma (Navin Nischol). This accident makes her visually impaired. The guilt-ridden Anand wants to apologize to Vidya. Will she accept the apology? Will Vidya reunite with her brother?
here is the list of songs of this movie as appearing in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980);
| S.No. | Song Title | Singer/s | Posted On |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Ye naa hogaa, nahin hoga hoga…ham donon milke kaaghaz pe dil ke | Asha Bhonsle, Mukesh | 04.10.2008 |
| 02 | Mera naam Raaja, main bheekh maangu kaise | Preeti Sagar | Being presented today |
| 03 | Hmm, zu zu … main husn ka hoon deewaanaa | Kishore Kumar | |
| 04 | Aye mast hawaa ye to bataa kis waqt yahaan | Lata Mangeshkar | |
| 05 | Ae ladki pyaar karegi, tu mera aitbaar karegi |
(in two parts) Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar
*HFGK included the ‘title music track’ of this movie as the sixth soundtrack*
I have not watched this movie and only thing I associate this movie name is its ‘Asha-Mukesh’ duet so far. Also, I think this movie was not successful on the box office.
I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.
Let us now listen to today’s song which also has the ‘signature touch’ of Rajesh Roshan. As mentioned above Master Rajoo is lip-syncing for Preeti Sagar’s voice and also seen in the picturization of the song are Anand Balraj, Moushumi Chatterjee and many others.

Song-Mera naam Raaja main bheekh maangoon kaise (Tumhaari Kasam)(1978) Singer-Preeti Sagar, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD-Rajesh Roshan
Lyrics
mera naam raaja
main bheekh maangoon kaise
bheekh main naa maangoon to
bolo jiyun kaise
mera naam raaja aa
mera naam raaja
main bheekh maangoon kaise
bheekh main naa maangoon to
bolo jiyun kaise
mera naam raaja
raste mein miley to
main poochhoon bhagwan se
teri kya thhi dushmani
is chhoti si jaan se ae
din bhar bhaagoon
raat ko jaagoon
din bhar bhaagoon
raat ko jaagoon
maa se sune loriyaan
bachche mere jaise
bheekh main naa maangoon to
bolo jiyun kaise
mera naam raaja aa
apne in haathon pe
mujhko badaa guroor thha
bheekh main inse maangoon
qismat ko ye Manzoor thha
sapne toote
apne chhoote ae
sapne toote
apne chhoote
thehro jaanewaalon
dete jaao do paise ae
bheekh main naa maangoon to
bolo jiyun kaise
mera naam raaja aa
main bheekh maangoon kaise
bheekh main naa maangoon to
bolo jiyun kaise
mera naam raaja aa
I am sure no one recalls this 1978 movie called “Tumhaari Kasam”. In fact I do not think this movie was ever released in the parts of the country where I was growing up in 1970s. But I recall having heard this song and liking it.
Now that I have rediscoverd this song, after all of 30 years- and with the video of the song to boot, I realise that this beautiful song was picturised surprisingly well.
