Here is a presentation on the songs of Geeta ji for the famous actress Nargis.

Nargis is one of the most famous actresses of Hindi cinema and does not need an introduction. Here is a small biography on her courtesy IMDB

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004291/bio

She was born on June 1, 1929 as Fatima Rashid in Rawalpindi, British India, daughter to Jaddanbai and Uttamchand Mohanchand, a Hindu Mohyal Brahmin. Her mother was a well-known dancer, singer, actor, composer, and director. This is what paved the way for Fatima to become a child artiste (Baby Rani) as early as 1935. She is the sister of Bollywood actor, Anwar Hussain and Akhtar Hussain.

Nargis and Bollywood mega-star Raj Kapoor formed a reel romantic couple, but it is well known that they had an off-screen romance and intimate relationship as well, but Raj, who was already married to Krishna, refused to divorce his wife.

After playing the mother of Sunil Dutt, a Mohyal Brahmin also, from Jhelum, British India, in the movie 'Mother India', she subsequently married him on 11 Mar 58.


Geeta ji sang many songs for Nargis during the early part of her career. The notable films being Jogan, Jaan Pehechan, Darogaji, Pyar , Saagar etc.

We know for sure that Geeta ji did sing for Nargis for these films:

Darogaji : 12 songs
Jogan : 12 songs
Jaan Pehchaan : 6 songs
Pyaar : 4 songs
Pyaar ki baatein : 3 songs
Saagar : 5 songs

Here is the list of films for which Geeta ji would have possibly sung for Nargis:

Anjuman (1948)

Are there any other films of Nargis where at least a song is sung by Geeta ji?

Thanks in advance
