(Shailendra) Shararat (1959)

If the movie was half as good as its songs, it could have been a super hit. As it turned out, there was not much to write home about this film, again except for its music. The movie had an interesting storyline but failed to capitalize on it. In this Kishoreda played two separate roles. But the movie stumbled by following the familiar pattern of a well educated but a stupid husband suspecting his wife’s faithfulness based on hearsay. I wonder why these seemingly decent people believe the rumors spread by others rather than trusting their own near and dear ones.

Several songs from the film were chart-busters with “Ajab Hai” and “Hum Matwaale” taking the top honors. My personal favorite is Rafi Saab’s beautiful song “Ajab Hai”. Interestingly, Rafi Saab lent his voice to Kishoreda for this song in the film. He also sang the male portion for Kishoreda in the duet “Lushka”.

Dattaram was the assistant music director.

The quality of these songs varies from fair to very good. Because of this I am uploading these songs at a lower bit rate. In particular, the song “Hum Matwaale” suffers from inferior quality between 3:04 and 3:34. The CD version of this song does not have the extra antara this one has.

Here are the above mentioned songs and others in two back-to-back posts…

(Anand Bakshi) Raja Aur Runk (1968)

This movie was based on Mark Twain’s famous novel “The Prince and the Pauper” written in 1881. It has been one of the favorites of Twain and was made into a movie in many languages many times through out the world. While the novel was very entertaining, this version made by Prasad Films did not live up to expectations. The basic problem with the movie was it was terribly miscast. Sanjeev Kumar, a budding star at that time, looked awful and was simply atrocious in emoting. The look alikes were played by a newcomer Kothari who also was simply wooden. Ajit in a pivotal role was too noisy and simply not appealing. Yet surprisingly the movie became popular on its release.

The only saving grace of the film was LP’s music. Many songs from the film are appealing with “Tu Kitni” topping all. This song has LP’s trademark all over it. He probably had Lata sing to almost the same tune so many hit songs in so many different films. Even the wizard with words, Bakshi Saab, used familiar tricks he was famous for in coming up with the song.

I am uploading this and other songs from this film in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set…

(Hasrat Jaipuri) Santan (1959)

This is yet another movie with Dattaram-Hasrat Jaipuri combination [“Kaala Aadmi (1960), “Parvarish (1958)” and “Qaidi No. 911 (1959)” were others]. Jaipuri Saab contributed to other films of Dattaramji, but shared duties with others. There are a few good songs in this film. Mukesh’s “Dil Ne,” the happy version, “Kehta Hai” both versions, and “Bole Yeh” are among these. Dattaramji borrowed his own tune for the last song, “Bole Yeh”, from “Parvarish”, “Mast Bhara Hai Sama”. Here are these and other songs from this film…

(Majrooh) Batwara (1961)

This movie was based on the premise that honesty is the best policy. It dealt with a family that moved from Peshawar to Indian side during partition. The melodrama was very lame and predictable but was punctuated by several beautiful songs from a debut making music director.

As mentioned, one of the highlights of the film was its music. S. Madan (Madan Sachdeva), the music director, was introduced in this film. There are several good songs in the film with “Yeh Raat” topping them all. Sachdeva’s music clearly demonstrated the strong influence of the rhythm king, O.P. Nayyar.

At the end of the movie the DVD has a song by Rafi Saab, “Iss Deewaar”, which abruptly ended just after 6 seconds. I could not find the full portion of this song which appears to be clearly part of the song “Yeh Kaisi”. I am requesting members to share “Iss Deewaar” if they can. Thank you.

Here are the songs mentioned and other fine songs from this film…

Shakeel Badayuni

My records erroneously showed that Badayuni Saab's last film was "Bombay Blast" released in 1993, 23 years after his death. I acquired a copy of the movie only to find that the lyricist was credited as K.K. Verma. Bappi Lahiri is the music director. What this means is that "Jogi", released in 1978, was his last movie. I have posted songs from this film recently in this thread.

Can someone please confirm that Shakeel Saab has no connection with this film?

Shakeel Saab, a brilliant lyricist, started his career with Naushadji's "Sohni Mahiwal" in 1958. In 12 years he was associated with the Hindi film industry until his death, he penned lyrics for 86 films. Many of the songs from these films became super hits.

Earlier he worked mostly with Naushadji and later with Ravi.

The last movie "Jogi" that was uploaded here will be the last one in this Shakeel Badayuni Saab's thread.

Dear Swarapriyabhai,

The name of the movie is "Bomb Blast" not "Bombay Blast", released in 1993. The website hindigeetmala shows the lyricist as K.C.Verma....

Shakeel Badayuni



Yes. Thanks Soumik. I meant "Bomb Blast" and not "Bombay Blast". That was a spelling oversight error. Like I said the movie credits clealry showed Verma as the lyricist. I was simply wondering whether there was any connection between this movie and Shakeel Saab.

Thanks,
S

(Rajinder Krishan) Amar Deep (1958)

Whenever C. Ramchandra and Rajinder Krishan got together they gave several great songs. Their collaboration resulted in nearly 25 movies. That says something about their combination; reliable and consistent. Remember all those unforgettable songs from "Albela (1951)" and mesmerizing songs of "Anarkali (1953)". This album has some very fine songs too. It has that popular duet "Dekh Humein Aawaaz Na Dena" and several lovely solos by Asha and Lata.

This movie was based on the 1956 Tamil hit “Amara Deepam” that starred the great Tamil thespian Shivaji Ganeshan. Shivaji produced the Hindi version. The story revolved around an amnesiac played by Dev who is cast opposite three Southern Belles, Vyjayanthi Mala, Padmini, and Ragini. The movie didn't make too many waves, but thanks to its beautiful music it was a modest hit.

All of the songs from the film were huge hits. The duet by Asha and Rafi Saab, "Dekh Humein Aawaaz Na Dena", was a chartbuster. So were some of the solos by Asha, especially "Lagi Apni Nazariya" and "Jaalilo Dhintaana." But my favorites are both of the solos by Lata. These melodious songs were beautifully sung by Lata. I am uploading these and other songs in two back-to-back two posts.

Here is the first set of songs...

(Shailendra) Ujala (1959)

This was the first association of the actor Shammi Kapoor and the music directors Shankar & Jaikishan. Through Prithvi Theaters and with his elder brother Raj’s films Shammi knew both S&J well. Later Shammi developed close friendship with Jaikishan.

In his late career, Shammi told an interviewer that when working in “Ujala”, S&J approached him to give input to their compositions. He admitted that even though he was not well versed in the knowledge of music as his elder brother Raj, yet he happily participated with them in their music sessions. After that it became a regular phenomenon with him. He never missed any musical session of his films composed by the music director duo. Shammi and S&J worked together in 24 films.

Shammi played a serious role in this film. He clearly was ill at ease being away from his home turf of comedy, buffoonery, and light hearted roles. Raaj Kumar was excellent as a baddie in a supporting role.

All of the songs from the film became enormous hits for which Dattaram and Sebastian were assistant music directors. S&J did not yet home in on Rafi Saab as the voice for Shammi. In this film for various songs they used Mannada, Mukesh, and Rafi Saab. Mannada has several songs in the film. The most popular was the duet with Lata, “Jhoomta Mausam”. Here is this and other songs from this popular musical in two back-to-back posts…
