Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 48
—————————————–
Ichak daanaa beechak daanaa daane oopar daanaa from ‘Shri 420’ (1955) has become one of the immortal songs of the 1950s. I can watch the video clip of this song umpteen times without reaching the saturation point. For our generation, it was an unique song in that it was the first song for us where riddles had been incorporated with answers in the song itself. n this song, a teacher (Nargis) is teaching her students the identification of a fruit, a vegetable and a bird through the riddles. This was a novelty and the song became a hit in our school so much so that during the recess, we used to devise out own riddles, albeit sometimes with wrong hints for others to solve them.

I was aware of Behzad Lucknowi as a lyricist for the films mainly of the 40s. I found that he suddenly vanished from Hindi film industry after he wrote lyrics for a few songs in films released in 1951. Last week, I accidentally came across an audio clip of a ghazal sung by none other than Ghulam Haider from the film ‘Zamindar’(1942). This beautiful ghazal was written by Behzad Lucknowi. I was so touched by this poignant ghazal that I started looking for his other songs penned by him for Hindi films. Two songs among a few already covered in this blog were very familiar to me but I was not aware that those two songs were written by Behzad Lucknowi. Those two songs were : zindaa huun is tarah kigham-e-zindagi nahin, tumhaare bulaane ko ji chaahataa hai. After listening to these songs and the ghazal from the film referred to above, there was an urge in me to know more about Behzad Lucknowi. As it turned out, he was an interesting personality.
