(Waheeda) Palki (1967)
Naushadji was one of the musical geniuses the Hindi film industry has ever known. The simplicity of his tunes and his understanding of classical music and its influence on his music time and again have enriched innumerable songs he composed for various movies. Apart from being a great musician, he also wrote shairi. For Hariharan's ghazal album "Aathwaan Sur" not only he composed music but also wrote all of the lyrics of the ghazals. For this movie, "Palki", we find Naushadji's another facet. It was based on his story. Naushadji, a great multi-faceted genius he certainy was! Naushadji and Shakeel Badayuni collaborated in many movies. It seems like Shakeel Saab almost exclusively wrote for Naushad Saab. However he did write songs for many other music directors as well. This film is also embellished with Shakeel Saab's rich lyrics. The song "Aye Shehar-E-Lucknow" reminds me of another great song written by Shakeel Saab, "Yeh Lucknow Ki Sar Zameen" for Guru Dutt's classic "Chaudhvin Ka Chand (1960)". Thus Shakeel Saab got a chance to pay magnificent tribute to the history, people, and traditions of a great city twice. I am uploading songs from this film in three separate posts. First two posts contain all the songs from the original sound track CD album. The third post contains remaining songs that were not on the CD. Here is the first set of songs ... Attached image(s) |

Songs of "Palki (1967)" Continued ... Here are more songs from this beautiful album. I am not certain, but the song shown in red italics in the table below may be from this film. I don't have this song. If this indeed is from this film, I am requesting friends of this Forum to share with rest of us. Thanks. Here are the songs in this post ... SP, I think, 'bimar-e-mohabbat' title is an error in Earth Music entry; I don't think it belongs to Palki. There is a song (Hemant, Lata duet) with that title in Teesri Gali (1958).

(Asha) Shikar (1968)
This movie came from Guru Dutt Films. After Guru died during the shooting of "Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi" his younger brother Atma Ram took over the reigns. After successfully releasing "Baharen" with Dharmendra (who replaced Guru), this film was made and released, also starring Dharmendra. I wonder where did all the money go from these proceedings? During these times one of our greatest singers, Geetaji, Guru's wife, was under severe financial strain and also was in poor health. One would think she should have gotten some share of the money to support herself and her children. (Parag, please throw some light on this subject. Thanks). "Shikar" was the first full length color movie under the banner. It turned out to be a hit thanks mainly due to its beautiful music and dashing looks of Dharmendra. This movie also was photographed by the great V.K. Murty who was a close friend and associate of Guru. He photographed all of Guru's own movies except "Chaudhvin Ka Chand". Most of the songs from this album became popular. The standout song is the one by Asha, "Parde Mein Rahne Do". She is at her best in these type of songs and Asha does it here very beautifullly. Also worth mentioning are Rafi Saab's solo and the duet of Kalle and Kapoor. Here are these and other songs from this original sound track album ... Attached image(s) |

Swarapriya Not just Shikaar which was made after Guru Dutt's demise, the film Chauhadhvin kaa Chaand made in the year 1960 made a lot of money. It more than compensated the losses due to Kaagaz ke Phool. Even Sahib Bibi aur Ghulaam was a moderate success at the box office. So in a nutshell, Guru Dutt films was in very good financial conditions despite the box office failure of KKP. The question then remains why a 34 year widow (an extremely popular playback singer) with 3 children to support was forced to do stage shows to feed herself and her kids! The answer to this question lies in the film Sailaab made by Mukul Roy in the year 1958. Geeta ji financially helped her brother in making of this film and the film bombed at the box office like nobody's business. (In fact it is said that Guru had advised Mukulda not to release the film, even though he himself had directed it.) The financial debacle of Sailaab put Geeta ji in a difficult situation. I do not understand the finer nuances of the deal, but it is said that Guru Dutt made Geeta ji "insolvent" to Guru Dutt films after this. This was merely a way to avoid this financial debacle to hit the assets of Guru Dutt films. What transpired after the tragic and untimely death of Guru Dutt was devastating on Geeta ji. One one hand she lost her husband and on the other hand she was dissociated from the wealth of her own film company. This is how she was forced to do stage shows to make both ends meet, while Guru Dutt films (now taken over by his brother Atmaaram) enjoyed the huge commercial success of Shikaar. How cruel was the destiny! Please visit www.geetadutt.com

How cruel was the destiny! Thank you very much Parag for sharing the whole story. I was only aware of bits and pieces of it. But this is the first time I see how dots are connected giving a complete picture. Some decisions we make in our lives, whether knowingly or unknowingly, seems like they haunt us forever. These subsequent unfortunate string of events in Geetaji's young and troubled life probably could have been averted if there was a generous soul out there to take care of them. But chivalry is not a common attribute for many folks who themselves are wilting under their own day to day pressures of life. Cheers, Swarapriya |

(Hema) Dulhan (1974)
The fine Telugu film actress Jamuna had a supporting role in this movie (her picture attached). Jamuna, who acted in nearly 200 movies, appeared in a handful of Hindi movies as well. In 1967, for her performance in L.V. Prasad's "Milan", she won the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award. Here are the songs from this film ... Attached image(s) |

IN TERMS OF QUALITY, CONSISTENCY & VERSATILITY, RAFISAAB IS INFINITE LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF ALL SINGERS BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER HIM. |

(Mala) Maya (1961)
There are nine beautiful songs in this film that can cast a spell on you. Each one of them is that good. I am not sure for how many movies of Dev, Salilda composed music for. But the songs from this are definitely as charming as Dev is debonair. The film has that perennial pleaser, the duet by Lata and Rafi Saab, "Tasveer Teri Dil Mein". One of my favorite songs of Lata, "Jaa Re" is from this film. There are three solos by Rafi Saab, two of which are Rafi Saab's distinctively great songs. There are also a couple of duets of Lata and Dwijen Mukherjee (one of them is almost a solo) that are lovely to listen to. Dwijen has an impeccable resemblance to Hemantda's voice. For a minute I thought I was actually listening to Hemantda. I was that easily fooled. I don't know too much about this singer. May be some of our members can shed some light on him. One of the things I have noticed listening to these beautiful songs is that how Lata's voice has been changing. As a matter of fact, in the duet "Tasveer", I thought her voice sounded a bit screechy in a couple of places (for example, when she sings the words "nainon ka kajra" and later in the song "ruk na sakega"). Or is it me? It is such a beautiful song, yet I couldn't help notice it. But it may have been a deliberate ploy by the music director himself ... I will upload these melodious songs in back-to-back two posts. Here is the first set ... This post has been edited by swarapriya: May 13 2010, 07:37 PM Attached image(s) |
