Char Dil Char Rahen (1959)
This Anilda's fine album has several beautiful songs written by the incomparable Sahir Saab. Interestingly, this is the only film in which brothers Raj and Shammi appeared together. They both appeared briefly again as guests in the film "Naseeb (1981)" but not with principal roles as in this movie. I am uploading these songs, some of them thanks to the courtesy of the Forum members, in two back-to-back posts. Now for the first set of songs ... Attached image(s) |

Dhool Ka Phool (1959)
This film came from the house of B.R. Films who were noted for making many socially conscientious movies in 50's and early 60's. The movie dealt with the plight of an unwed mother and complications arising from the child nobody wants to own. This gave an opportunity for Sahir Saab to write some beautiful and rich lyrics. Some of the songs include a repentful mother singing "Tu Mera Pyaar Ka Phool Hai, ke Mera Bhool Hai" and Rafi Saab's heartwarming song "Tu Hind Banega Na Musalmaan Banega". I am uploading these and several others including some beautiful duets with Mahendra Kapoor and other cosingers from an original soundtrack album below. Here are these songs in back-to-back two posts. Now for a description of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves ... Attached image(s) |

Didi (1959)
N. Dutta, the music director of this film, insited on working always with sahir Ludhiancvi Saab. Time and again they came together resulting in some rich lyrics Sahir Saab wrote for many of Dutta's hit compostions. Sudha Malhotra, with whom Sahir was in love, sang a couple of songs in this film. Their love was doomed from the beginning for various reasons but their collaboration yielded some beautiful songs. Incidentally, in this movie, when Dutta fell ill during its production with a song still to compose music for, Malhotra stepped in and completed the work. This song, her duet with Mukeshji, "Tu Mujhe Bhool Bhi Jaao", became a hit. Here are all the songs of this beautiful album... Attached image(s) |

Barsaat ki Raat (1960)
Here is a beautiful musical extravaganza from Roshan Saab. Roshan Saab was not the first choice as a music director for the movie. Originally Khayyam Saab was signed to provide its music. But differences developed between the producers and Khayyam Saab that forced Khayyam Saab to leave the project. This gave an opportunity to provide to Roshan Saab for some of the great qawwali music ever screened for an Indian film. There are so many of them it feels like a long mushaira and a never ending musical celebration. Sahir Saab who wrote the lyrics was at the top of his game here. The title song is just a thing of beauty. Rich lyrics. Mesmerizing singing of Rafi Saab. The experience just leaves one on cloud nine. Interestingly, neither Sahir Saab nor Roshan Saab was nominated for any awards that year. Most honors went to Mughal-E-Azam but Shakeel Badayuni Saab won the Best Lyrics Award for the title track of "Chaudhvin ka Chand" and Shankar & Jaikishan won for their music for "Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai". The movie came in the same year for its heroine, Madhubala, as her magnum opus "Mughal-E-Azam". Her beauty was still radiant in spite of her now well known health problems. However she didn't have much to do in the film and even her character was not that well defined. Bharat Bhushan on occasion made good movies. This was one of them. He suited well in the role of the poet. He and the music and a sprightly Shyama lighted the screen with several musical interludes while Madhubala giggled away into our hearts. I am uploading songs from this album in three back-to-back posts. The first two posts contain all the songs from the film. The third post has some extended version songs. Here is a description of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves... This post has been edited by swarapriya: Nov 24 2010, 08:32 PM Attached image(s) |

Thanks a lot for "Masoom." The song "Naani Teri Morni Ko Mor Le Gaye..." is worth the price of admission!
