Three Of A Kind

(Dev) Chhupa Rustam (1973)

Vijay Anand had seven separate roles in making this movie. He produced and directed it under Navketan banner. He was a co-writer of the story and authored the screenplay. He also edited the film. He also had an important role in the film. Besides he wrote lyrics for three songs.

Vijay, who made several hit films to his credit, however was a complete miss here. Even though it was not a total disaster, there is not really much to write about the film. Only thing that saved the day for it was its music. Burmanda’s music as usual delivered. To his credit, with able assistance from his wife Meeraji, Burmanda came up with several fine songs. “Dheere Se Jaana” by Kishoreda was a chartbuster. But both solos by Asha and Lata are also equally good. Here are these and other songs from this fine album…

Debo, is this song different from what I have already uploaded above in my post? Thanks & cheers. -S

yes absolutely swarapriya ji...

Thanks for the song, Debo. It turns out that both songs are the same except the one you uploaded is a longer version.

Cheers,

(KIshore) Pyar Diwana (1972)

Lala Asar Sattar, professionally known as Lala Sattar composed music for some ten plus films. Apart from this film, his other notable ones include "Chalbaaz", "Khiladi", "Sangram", "Watan Se Door", and others. Asha Bhosle sang most of his female songs as she was his favorite playback singer.

This film was part color and part black and white. Three or four of the songs were shot in color whereas the rest of the movie is in black and white.

While working on these albums I am discovering more and more that Rafi Saab has lent his voice to Kishoreda in several films. In this film for the song “Apni Aadat Hai”, Rafi Saab was the playback singer for Kishoreda. Here is this and other songs from this film…

(Dev) Heera Panna (1973)

This film directed by Dev was a moderate success mainly due to its fine music by R.D. Burman. I am uploading songs from this album and some specials in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set of songs...

(Kishore) Zameen Aasman (1972)

Here are songs from this album for which Kishoreda composed music but did not appear in...

(Dev) Joshila (1973)

After breaking away from his older brother Balraj (B.R. Chopra) this was the first movie Yash Chopra directed for producer Gulshan Rai. It was only a moderate success. But Yash later returned for Rai to direct two blockbusters, “Deewar” in 1975 and “Trishul” in 1978. In the meantime, in 1973, he established his own production company, Yash Raj Films. The very same year he produced and directed for his company the huge hit “Daag: A Poem of Love”. After this success there was no turning back for Yashji.

Even though this movie enjoyed only moderate acceptance, the music by RD is remembered for some good numbers. The song “Kis Ka Rasta”, which is repeated few times in the movie, was a popular number. Also, one can see traces of music from RD’s own composition “Kanchi Re” from “Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971)” in the duet “Dil Mein Jo”. Asha’s solo “Kaamp Rahi” also has bit traces of “Raat Akeli” from SD’s “Jewel Thief (1967)”. Speaking of SD, the solo by Lata, “Jo Baat Ishaaron” is impeccably like a song perhaps SD could have composed himself. The music and the rendering of this melodious song has SD’s imprint all over it.

Incidentally, this was the third movie Dev was in with Rakhee during 1973 (the other two were “Banarasi Babu” and “Heera Panna”).

I am uploading songs from this album and a couple of music clips in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set…

Here are the rest of the songs from this fine album...

(Kishore) Badhti ka Naam Dadhi(1974)

Every facet of Kishore Kumar’s brilliance is showcased in this movie. He played several important roles in making this movie a reality. He was responsible for its 1) story, 2) screenplay, 3) music, 4) playback singing, 5) some lyrics, 6) production, 7) direction, and 8) several roles as an actor. To support him, he hired many other comedians as well. Yet the movie was based on such a silly premise that too much of Kishoreda became too much to take.

Rajesh Khanna had a brief appearance in a court room scene in the beginning of the film.

I am uploading songs from this film in two back-to-back posts. Here are the songs in the first post…
