dear SP

here is the longer version of bole yeh dil ka ishara--3.40mts @160kbps


quote=romesh

Thank you very much Romesh for the extended version of the song. Cheers. -S

This film is based on a famous novel of the same name by Premchand. Its considered by some to be the greatest hindi novel of the 20th century, although it was originally written in Urdu. I've read the excellent english translation which is quite famous in its own right. Apart from being a moving and very readable work of literature, it also educates one on rural traditions in early 20th century India and the Gandhi influence is obvious in the glorification of rural life and humility. I highly recommend the book...

Thanks for the info Faraaj. I did read the Hindi version. I didn't realize until now that Munshi Premchandji wrote this originally in Urdu. His other fine work that was made into a movie was that of Sadhana-Sunil Dutt starrer, "Gaban" made in 1966 ,with some beautiful music by Shankar & Jaikishan.

Cheers,

(Manoj) Poonam Ki Raat (1965)

Kishore Sahu was one of a kind. He wrote, acted, produced and directed many films to his credit. He experimented with some altogether different themes. He is the one who introduced Bina Rai in his "Kali Ghata" in 1951. He tried unsuccessfully to bring his own daughter into movies ("Hare Kanch Ki Chudiyan (1967)". In early 60's he made a spate of movies that clicked well at the box office ("Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai (1960)", "Grahasti (1963)", and "Ghar Basa Ke Dekho (1963)".

"Poonam Ki Raat" was different than the most he worked with. It was not a success he hoped for but it deserved better. It was a kind of Hitchcockian style psychological thriller. It was carefully directed holding the grip on audience with taut pace and guessing suspense, and boasted some of the best music given by Salil Chowdhury. There are several beautiful songs in the film including the perennial pleaser, that haunting melody of Lata, "Saathi Re" that reminds one of Salilda's other similar and famous composition "Aaja Re" from Bimalda's unforgettable "Madhumati (1958)". The other outstanding song is the duet by Lata and Mukesh, "Tum Kahaan Le Chale Ho". Solos by Asha and Rafi Saab are other songs that are worth mentioning. All in all it is a beautiful album.

I am posting these songs in back-to-back two posts. In the first post, I am including all the songs from the original soundtrack album. In the second post I am including several extended version songs.

Now here is a description of the songs from the first post and the songs themselves ...

Concluding Songs from "Poonam Ki Raat (1965)" ...

Here are extended version of most of the songs from this album. All are by the courtesy of the Forum members. Thank you ...

(Raaj) Phool Bane Angaare (1963)

This album has some great songs. All songs are very very good, but the standout of the album is the solo by Mukesh, "Chaand Aahen Bharega". A riveting romantic number the way only Mukeshji can sing. Lingers in your mind long after you listen to it and stays in your heart for ever. By the way, Mala Sinha was stunningly beautiful through out this song and might easily have inspired Anand Bakshi Saab to write this lovely song. She was very appealing as the song itself.

I am uploading these songs in back to back two posts. The first post contains the songs and the second post contains several musical pieces from the film.

Now for the details of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves ...

The music director should be Kalyanji Anandji and not Laxmikant Pyarelal.

Thank you posting songs, I was missing several.

Thank you Rushin for catching my error. I made changes to my postings to reflect your suggestion. Thank you again. Cheers. -S

Hi Swarpriya,

I am relatively new to this forum & this is the first time I am writing to you. If there is any award for best member of the forum, it will without any doubt go to you.

Some modifications suggested in "Amar rahe yeh pyar"
As per HFGK year is 1961.
"Dil dhadke aanchal" is actually "Tumehin dekh ke mera dil dhadke, dil dhadke aanchal sarke" from 1969 movie "Sakhi Lootera", Music - Baldev Nath Bali and lyrics by Aziz Gaazi. Most probably this voice is of Krishna Kalle & not Asha Bhosale. (Source: HFGK)
Voice in Maa pyari maa looks very close to Manna Dey but not sure and there is no entry for this song in HFGK.

I hope this information helps.

Thanks SP.

I have been through almost all your posts so far. I can see few requests which you made are still open. I request you to consolidate the list of such songs and let me make an attempt to see if I can get at least some of them, if possible.
