Mohammed Rafi Sahab + Johnny Walker + O.P. Nayyar = Super Hit song & melodious music. All three were superb & wonderful. This is a super hit song from film - "CHHOO MANTAR". Johnny Walker with Anita Guha.
Rafi Sahib was one of the few great artistes who sang with such a true voice, he is almost not aware of how natural and effortless his singing is. This pure quality is missing in today's singers. They are very good, but you can tell they are showing off, instead of letting it flow out.
A terrific song. An all trime great. Such songs are what that made the 50s to be called the golden age of Bollywood music.
The orchestra and the tune of this song are out of this world. Iam a great fan of OPN- Rafi magic. Geeta provides valuable support. OPN just composed and thereby created public taste for his songs. A good lesson to the current day so called Bollywood composers.
OPN rarely varied the tune for individual stanzas in a song and got away with it - his songs never felt monotonous despite this. He carried it to an extreme in this song where all five stanzas (antaras) have exactly the same tune and instrumentation. Yet the song is delightful as with OPN songs and was a great hit. Thanks for posting this. The audio version available has slight editing (omission) in the third stanza while this version is complete. Where can I get a DVD or VCD of this movie??
Thanks for the nice comments. I had this song on a video tape & had to convert it to the electronic format. I have no idea where can you get DVD or VCD.. I had this on Video for 22 years.
Thanks for taking the trouble of converting it and posting it. I've always loved this song as typical of OPN and Rafi, but had only the audio version. Wish I could see this movie. BTW as I said earlier the audio version is slightly edited in that the third stanza does not repeat the first line unlike the original posted here, though here there are interruptions as the tape was probably not in the best of conditions. Thanks once again.....
Thanks a lot 4 posting this memorable song. I have been looking 4 this song since long.The song has been sung beautifully by RAFI and GEETA DUTT.This is another GEM 4m their duet collection.
