Concluding Songs from "Kaagaz ke Phool (1959)" ...

In this post I am including several specials. All specials deal with the same song, “Waqt Ne Kiya”. One of the songs has an introduction by RD. RD talks here fondly about how his dad used to work – sometimes in reverse order, like the way Bengali is spoken. This is per RD’s own words. The song is taken from the album “Legends: S.D. Burman (CD2)”. I am also including a version of the song sung by the great ghazal singer Jagjit Singh. This is taken from his album “Close to My Heart”. The third special has an introduction by Lata. This one is taken from her album “Lata’s Shraddhanjali-2”. Here Lataji talks about her friendship with Geetaji. Finally, the last special has an introduction by Pankaj Udhas where he talks about the greatness of Geetaji and the tyranny of time on her life. This one is taken from the album “Legends: Geeta Dutt – The Voice of Passion (CD4)”.

Here are these four specials …

Apna Haath Jagannath (1960)

Burmanda churned out one beautiful song after another almost his entire career. This album is case in point. The only difference here is that he was working with Kaifi Azmi saab who wrote its lyrics. After the unprecedented success they enjoyed together in collaborating with Guru Dutt's "Kaagaz ke Phool (1959)" it was inevitable they were to come together once again. In this album, they work their charm together to give us some beautiful songs. I am uploading these in two back-to-back posts.

Here is a description of the songs in the first set and the songs themselves ...

Ek Ke Baad Ek (1960)

This movie was based on the family planning theme. It won the Maharashtra State Government Award for promoting the Plan. In spite the seriousness of the theme and a good musical score by ever so dependable Burmanda, movie was not a success.

Geetaji had a couple of beautiful duets in this movie. Her duet with Rafi Saab, a real beauty, reminds me of the great song from"Pyaasa (1957)", "Hum Aap Ki Aankhon Mein". But that was penned by Sahir Saab.

I am uploading all of the songs from this album in back-to-back two posts. The first post has all the songs from the film. The second post contains a few of the extended versions.

Here is the first set...

Hi SP,

As per HFGK, lyrics of all the songs are by Kaifi Aazmi.

"Nazar milayi to" is not listed at all in either HFGK or Swarasha. Can we know source this song?

Viraj

Hello Viraj,

I have updated the tables to reflect your suggestion. Now for the source of the song you're referring to I couldn't tell. Sorry about that. These songs were collected way back when. Some came from CDs. The others came from the sites which sell MP3 songs. Lately I am not buying anything unless I find something I really want badly. Does the HFGK has cross-indexing that can tell where this song comes from? Probably asking too much here. By the way, what is Swarasha? I am not familiar with it. May be you can throw some light on it.

Thanks & Cheers,
S

Hi SP,

Sadly, as mentioned above all the references that I have for this movie, no book even lists this song. Let's wait for some other experts of HF to comment on this. Just curious to know if this is from same movie or not. Once confirmed we can update our respective databases, if required. Dhallji has already explained what Swarasha is.

So basically it is the second part of "Aao Yaaron Aao Pyaro"
@ 2:16 you get the words "Din Pyar Ke .. Nazar Milayi Toh Duniya Se Darna Kya"

This just proves that most people here don't actually listen to the songs
they download.
