[prasoonpandey2000]

wonderful.beautiful song

[animanvai]

movie with golden songs of C. Ramchamdra

[aman76472]

meenakumari....is looking so gorgious



[Pillanguzal]

Great song

[Hassu2708]

Such compositions could never be produced again.

[Murtuza271920]

The sense of security and joy being depicted by Meena Kumari in the company of her beloved, Dilip Kumar, in the song is marvellous. Everything is so beautiful, the song, the music, the lyrics, the voices and the ambience. At the same time how painful it is to accept that such a golden film era will never return.

[kannensharma]

The male singer is Chitalker. C> Ramchanra himself was a good singer.And he sang for Dilip in a quite a few movies in the 50s.

[barsakus]

@kannensharma Got a golden opportunity to sing duet with Lata :)

[MANIACSNIBM]

Owsome..man the melody is soooo beautiful.wow... i don't know a single word of this song, but i can listen this son again and again..100......

[nandu1f]

Such a sunny romantic song. Everything perfect.

[girish613]

Sachinv has given wrong information that Chitalkar sang with Lata because Talat was not available.

The truth is just as S. D. Burman always sang a song or two in all the movies he composed music for, Chitalkar also always sang a song or two for the movies he composed music for.

[girish613]

Dilip Kumar is much taller than Meena Kumari

[drsadz]

In a powerful, attractive way though, right?

(Not like the awkward way Amitabh dwarfs Jaya and other co-actresses)

[sakha10]

This is C. Ramchandra---- [ Chitalkar]. Sachinv is right.

[shahabkalim]

just love this song...

[chamogaa]

Beautiful duet, of course, but also see how sweet and lovely Meena Kumari looks. She had superb talent to boot. That's what makes a true star, and she was one beyond any doubt.

[waheeda786]

do you have the rest of the songs?

[gondooze]

What a Song !! Thanks for posting .. You've made my day!

[sachinv]

this is Chitalkar (C.Ramachandra - the music director who sang this song coz talat was not available) and Lata.

[nickkohri]

I'm afraid both the gentlemen are bit off the truth. The recording session was ready but Talat failed to show up. So with everybody waiting, Chitalkar recorded it himself in his most Talat-like style. After this Talat & CR fell-out with each other, and CR never gave another song to Talat - a sad ending to a long fruitful melodious partnership.

[sachinv]

Dont know the veracity of your information but in any case that still means Talat was not available.

[nickkohri]

CR was really upset because the recording date was set-up and agreed by Talat. This was not a situation where Talat was simply unavailable - it was a big emotional cracker. After this CR switched to Mahendra Kumar for all Talat-style vocal requirements (Stree, Navrang, Anchal etc).

[rkoza7]

@nickkohri

Not Mahendra Kumar but Mahendra Kapoor

[rkoza7]

@nickkohri

A sad ending indeed for two very good artists. But C. Ramchandra saab was known to be a very strict person and so never forgave Talat for one lapse on the latter's part

[nickkohri]

@rkoza7 You know, all these artistes possess inflated egos. And it does not take much for them to get bent out of shape. Behind the scenes shenanigans make for a very interesting situations. Lata vs Rafi; OP Nayyar vs Lata; Manoj Kumar vs Talat; Asha vs Vani Jairam; and so on!!

[rkoza7]

@nickkohri

I entirely agree with you. But due to these egos we the music lovers are the ultimate losers. We miss the chance to listen to their fresh creations once they stop working together.

[nickkohri]

@rkoza7 Yes we lost! Just look at OP Nayyar & Sajjad Hussein. Both were music geniuses, but were always fighting with the movie producers - who actually paid their wages! Sajjad quit Hulchul after composing only 3 songs because Producer/Director K. Asif was "advising" him about song sequences! OP gave music for mostly C-grade movies. The big producers just did not want to work with these 2. Naushad spoke highly of Talat - but gave him songs in only 1 movie Babul!
