Munimji (1955)
Munimji was a breakaway movie in every sense. It became a mold for many other future movies to come. It was produced by Filmistan (Shashidhar Mukherjee also know as S. Mukherjee - father of actor Joy Mukherjee). It was directed by a first time director Subodh Mukherjee. Subodh was a younger brother of Shashidhar. He always wanted to make a movie and has some storyline ideas. Instead he ended up directing Munimji. It was written by Nasir Hussain, future famous producer and director himself. Nasir and Subodh also cowrote the screenplay. The dialogues were written by Nasir and Qamar Jalalabadi. Interestingly, Jalalabadi who is known as a lyricist, didn't write any songs for this movie. Dev's portrayal in the movie was magnificent. In the Filmfare awards competition that year he lost to Dilip Kumar (for Azaad) in apparently a very close vote. Nirupa Roy played Dev's mother and won the best supporting actress award for her portrayal. In years, Nirupa was younger to Dev in real life! Also, Nasir Hussain practically took the same story and made "Tumsa Nahin Dekha," "Dil Deke Dekho," and "Jab Pyar Kisise Hota Hai" all major musical blockbusters. The songs of "Munimji" are just super. Especially the song by Kishore "Jeevan Ki Safar Me Raahi" just rocks. I read in this Forum that Thakur who is the cosinger of "Dil Ki Umangen Hai Jawan" is none other than actor Pran himself. I can't confirm this, but definitely it was news to me. It is noteworthy that Burman Da did not have Sahir write all the songs. The writing duties were split between Sahir and Shailendra. Here are the details and songs themselves ... Attached image(s) |

Funtoosh (1956)
After series of negative or serious roles (Munimji excepted) Dev Anand tries here an all out comedy with very good results. This comedy was directed by Dev's older brother Chetan Anand and it was a hit. All songs in this movie were sung by either Asha Bhosle or Kishore Kumar. Sahir Ludhianvi again wrote its lyrics. One of the most moving song ever sung by Kishore is the number "Dukhi Mann Mere ...". Jaidev, future music director himself, was an assistant music director. Jaidev also assisted SD with House No. 44, so this was second time around for him. The extended version of "Phool Gendwa Na Maaro" is courtesy of the Forum Members. Here are the details of the album and all the songs ... Attached image(s) |

Nau Do Gyarah (1957)
Dev was acting with his wife Kalpana Kartik for the first time and the last time in this move. (They got married on the sets of Taxi Driver.) Did anyone know if Kalpana Kartik acted in any othe movies besides those few with Dev? Dev's younger brother, Vijaay Anand, made debut with this movie as a director. He aso wrote the story and screenplaay for the movie. (He shared duties as a screenplay writer with his older brother Chetan Anand for Taxi Driver when he was only 20 years old.) Fo the first time for a Nav Ketan movie, it was not Sahir, but Majrooh Sultanpuri who penned the lyrics. This was also the year Guru Dutt's landmark "Pyaasa" was released that had the super combination of SD and Sahir performing for the last time together in their careers. Even though their respective professional careers floursihed, the two stalwarts never got together again. The combination of SD and Majrooh proved to be equally formidable. All songs fom the movie were super hits. You knew right away that more good stuff will come out of this combination in years ahead. SD, who was famous for giving his touch to duets, had three separate duets in this movie, all delightful and superb compositions. Vija Anand made this movie only in 40 days. The movie had very notable climax much similar to the one in Taxi Driver. This is not surprising as Vijay shared screenplay duties for both of these movies. Once again Jaidev assisted SD in music of this movie. The song by Asha Bhosle and Geeta Dutt, "Kya Ho Phir Jo Din," was given to me by a friend and is only at 16KBPS. Sorry about the bit rate for this. However the vocals are very clear and I am not apologetic for including this song here (Parag should appreciate it). (Does anyone know how to beef up the bit rate from lower to higher? I have seen from high to low.) Now for the details of the movie and songs themelves ... Attached image(s) |

Paying Guest (1957)
This is another romantic comedy in which SD-Dev-Subodh Mukherjee-Nasir Hussain teamed up after the thundering success of "Munimji." This time the result was no different. The movie was also a runaway hit. Subodh Mukherjee was yearning to make this movie for sometime and finally got to make it in the wake of the success he enjoyed with "Munimji." Nasir Hussain wrote the story as well as the screenplay. This time the team utilized the talents of the lyricist Majrooh Sultanpuri. The music by SD is absolutely sweet. Most songs are popular even today, after 50+ odd years. It is a testimonial how the music stays young when it is done right. Both duets by Asha and Kishore are very hummable. Kishore's solos are still popular today. Lata also contributed couple of sweet solos. There is one song by Geeta Dutt "Gaaye Ghabrake" that was not included in the movie. The extended version of "Chal Zamana Kya Kahega" and the Geeta Dutt's song are courtesy of the Forum members. The extended version includes the commentary by the lyricist, Majrooh. Assistant music director was Suhrid Kar. Now for the details of the songs and the songs themselves ... Attached image(s) |

Swarpriya ji, many thanks for posting this (and so many so far) lovely album of the magical duo of SDB and Dev sab. I believe I do have a higher bitrate version of the song "Kya ho phir jo din rangeela ho". I will check and upload it here. There is one more solo song sung by Geeta ji for this film. The song is "See le zubaan aisaa naa ho sub kuchh khonaa pade naadaan" Does any one have it ? Please share. Thanks in advance Best Regards Parag Please visit www.geetadutt.com

Kala Pani (1958)
Kala Pani was directed by Raj Khosla who made his debut with Dev Anand's C.I.D. The movie C.I.D. was produced by Guru Dutt who was returning Dev Anand's favor for giving him his first break as a director. The story of Kala Pani was credited to Vijay Anand but it was lifted from an English novel named "Beyond This Place." This movie was a triumph for Dev Anand who was recognized as the best actor for that year in Filmfare awards. Also, Nalini Jayawant, who had a key role in the movie was awarded best supporting actress. Every song in this movie is a gem. They were all penned by Majrooh. Especially Rafi's song "Hum Bekhudi Mein" is one superb composition and rendering. SD was assisted once again by Jaidev. The extended version of Asha's "Jab Naam-E-Mohabbat" is courtesy of the Forum members. Now for the details of the songs and songs themselves ...
