This is Mian ki Todi Real Shaip

[TheDimasisk]

beautiful one here

[TheDimasisk]

somebody tell me! why modern imdians movies are going occidental?if we want kisses and naked scenes we have porns?

[dkmkartha]

@TheDimasisk We are moving from the era of Dhvani (suggestive portrayal) into the arena of the explicit. Vulgarity will rule more and more as the king in movies and we will have to stop going to the movies and enjoy media such as Kathak and BharataNatyam and Odisi to see cultured and restrained and Dhvanipradhaan entertainment.

[swainajay11]

Gulzarsaab!

[prabhasm]

Ashaji sang this live in Washington DC in 2010, just on chords and without any music, and with a brief recount of the history of Bilaskhani Todi, presented several variations of the aalaap -- Pt. Jasraj was in the audience! -- it sounded so good -- i keep thinking the original recording, great though it was, was always a bit muffled and gave her limited room for improvisation!

[ankur24X7]

THANX 4 D POST.... ITS A GR8 COLLECTION!

[nata20092000]

She is not that young here - when this video came out?

[remabarve]

[ASHOKPANDIT1]

I love this song and the raga Bilaskhani Todi on which this song is based.

[utubesanjay]

pandit satyalsheel deshpande is amazing. I love hia style, voice and renditions. And asha is superb as usual. Thank u panditji

[Misssrijeeta]

beautyful song love this song

[pitupraveen]

The song is "Joothe Naina Bole" ..

from an interview __

Gulzar:

Ashaji, aaj is baat ka khulaasa kar dete hain ki "JhooTe nain" aisa muhaavaraa ban chukaa hai ki log usey hi gaate chale aaye hain, sunte chale aaye hain yaa likhte chale aaye hain. lekin mehsoos karne waali baat hai, agar kisi ne mehsoos kiya ho ki jin aankhon se kisi Gair ko dekh liyaa, wo to aankhen jooThi ho gayeen.

Asha Bhosle: jaise ki paani ka 'glass'

Gulzar: jee haan, agar usey kisi ne pee liya to woh jooTha ho gayaa.

[satyajitsahu]

@pitupraveen Awesome conversation!

[teentunes]

Amazing dance ... simply amazing dancer complimenting the voice and the music.

[drnavinsingh]

pt. satyasheel deshpande is brilliant. and asha ji has shown her greatness by being able to hold her own against a giant like pandit ji.

[satyaspramanik]

sniti sang same as the original in saregama.......i checked the original ahter hearing her.....great talent she has,great future

[Uday2310]

Addha Teental....Awesome music + Vocal + No wards to say.Mind blowing.

[rahim8957]

As all her videos, Hema Malini is very nice and beautiful actress, but in this video we can see how many Hema its an true artist in the dance. Thank you!!!

[apurvanow]

I watched this movie when it came out, but last week suddenly I watched it for the second time. Initially I wondered why Hema in this film, especially when she is shown as a younger girl in parts of the film. All those questions were answered when this song came-up. Name one who could dance like she can in long screen shorts. Most actress of the time this movie came out were only capable of dancing on the street (Bollywood style) with a screen shot no longer than a couple of seconds.

[trsomas]

Hema Malini is very beautiful but I do not find anybody as gorgeous as Dimple Kapadia.

[chitra029]

kya baat hai......

[bhuto75]

thnx a ton halimali, I had the good fortune of hearing this after such a long time. The Bilaskhani Todi alaap is derived from DV Paluskar no doubt but the entire composition has the beauty and melody that none of the current songs could ever imagine to reach... thanks again

[ravindrabhatt]

Is this Gurjari Thodi?

[raqib56]

@ravindrabhatt, No, this is Belaskhani todi in Bhainravi thaat, sung in

sampurna i.e. all seven surrs arohi and amrohi, ascending & descending.

Son of Mian Tansen Bilas Khan invented it.

Gujri Todi is derived from Todi thaat, in sadhava jati, i.e 6 surrs arohi amrohi

its a noon raag !

[asifalibaber1]

wao nice song

[dumbster08]

I think the first aalap is by Satyasheel Deshpande. I love Asha's voice in this composition. She is so verstatile.

[gunabcd]

Who is the (male) singer of the opening peace? what raga/style etc is it? and most importantly is there a complete version of that raga/song? really love those first 10-15 seconds.

[gauratan77]

Actualy the start compostion is sung male is taken orginaly of Pt.D.V.Paluskar and Later (Drut) compositon sung by Asha Bhosle is the orginal compositon of my Grandpa Pt.S.N.Ratanjankar (Vohi Jao Jao....... Jao Baalma )

[peahen009]

Absolutely mind-blowing composition by the meastro Hridaynath Mangeshkar based on Raag Bilaskhani Todi

[Quviyn]

this song is a winner!

[abhikhare7]

wonderful song based on Raag. Bilaskhani Todi... which is tough to sing.... but Satyasheel Deshpande ans Asha Bhosle have sung it effortlessly....

[ravindrabhatt]

@abhikhare7 What is the difference b/n Gurjari Thodi and Bilaskhani Thodi?

[abhikhare7]

@ravindrabhatt - It is said that Tansens son Bilas Khan was grieving after Tansens death and took Tansens Miyan ki Todi (very similar to Gujari with the exception of Pa being absent in Gujari) and composed a new Raga mixing Bhairavi and Todi to get Bilaskhani Todi.... so Bilaskhani has components of Bhairavi in it... Some people also see Asavari in it.....

[twinkle420eye]

whatever happened to the actresses who could carry & convey a song just SITTING on the floor...

now they're jumping all over the place...still you get not an iota expressed

[halimali]

right Twinkle, really miss those days. Previously audiences enjoyed extremely when the camera focused on the face of Hema, Meeena Kumari or Nutan, The shot used to be sooo beautiful and eye catching. Nowdays it is disgusting big time

[WRLuver]

@halimali not to mention Waheeda rehman and of course Sridevi

[Khursheedo]

@halimali You are absolutely right! I do not watch modern day movies because they are so disgusting.

[seemam9]

awesome music (Hridaynath Mangeshkar), awesome singing (ashaji), and awesome dancing (Hema malini)

[halimali]

Yeaaaa that was an amazing album. All the songs were amazing, It was a landmark for the Mangeshkar family

[seemam9]

awesome album indeed...My personal fav is "Suniyo ji araj maari, babula hamar"

[ffajil]

@seemam9 :do not leave Gulzar..........

:D
