You are most welcome Rajan. Glad to know you like the song.
I am always glad to share songs of our beloved Geeta ji.
We actually need to thank all the stalwarts of HF who made them available for us.

Upload for today. Enjoy! A very good example of Geeta ji swinging between different moods/emotions and tones effortlessly in the title line itself.

Great observation HB.



Its truly a very good song, for an obscure film. Hence did not get much fame as it deserved.

Thanks for sharing it

Cheers
Parag

You are most welcome Parag.
Its ironic that in a period where people like S.D. Burman, O.P. Nayyar were giving one-one song to her, MDs like Chitragupt were giving her all the female solos in their movies.
Would you be having the above two mentioned songs from the movie?

HB, if I remember correctly Mahesh posted the song "Aye bewafa yeh toh bataa kya hain meri khata" some time back. I will check my desktop/back-up HDD and re-upload it here.

Thats another lovely song of Geeta ji, in total contrast to the song "Dekho jee dil naa todo" from the same film.

Speaking of Burmanda and OP, with all the due respect to both of them, they both seem to have this habit of forgetting the singers (Geeta ji and Shamshad ji) who gave them great hits in the initial phases of their careers. Ex: Do Bhai, Shabnam for Burmanda and many for OPN.

Burmanda seems to have been opting for Asha ji and Lata ji in late fifties and OPN going all the way to Asha ji (with just a few songs for Shamshad ji) from 1958 onwards.

Whatever be the reasons!

Hmm. We can add SJ and MM to the list as well.

Will wait for the upload.

To be fair to SJ, they tasted super success with their first film Barsaat where all the songs were sung by Lata ji. They stuck to Lata ji till the end (except a few occasions when Lata ji was not singing for RK or when Sharda was introduced). IMHO, they did not get huge success because of Shamshad ji and then forgot her. Subject to correction!

About Madan Mohan. Yes, in the first film Lata ji did not sing for him and the songs were indeed sung by Shamshad ji and Meena Kapoor ji. AFAIK, from the second film onwards Lata ji started singing for him and since then it was Lata ji all the way (again with a few songs given to Asha ji and Geeta ji).

Great discussion!

Hi friends

Found that there is another rare song of Geeta ji composed by Ram Ganguly. The film is Saaya (not sure what is the year).

The song is "Dhokke mein tum naa aana, yeh hain makkar zamanaa".

Kind request to share this song.

Thanks
Parag

Thats a 1961 song and a beautiful one too. This was also the last hindi film of Ram Ganguly.

It was uploaded by mahesh ji last month here and it is still available there.
