Geeta Dutt - Ja Ja Ja Ja Bewafa - Aar Paar [1954]

Shayama was indeed a beauty. Is she still alive? I hope some one has the answer.

Beautiful song. I like the nice flowing waves in her voice, something that other female singers did not have.

Shyama (real name Khurshid Akhtar) came from a poor family of Lahore. During early days of her career in Bombay film industry a producer went to her house to offer a role in a film. She gave him a chair to sit but herself kept standing for two hours - there was no other chair in the house!!!!!

OP Nayyer reconed this song as the best ever sung by Geetaji and rued that Asha could never sing one like this for him.Asha asked him to compose one like this for her and she will sing.OP then composed 'Chain se hum ko kabhi' for film 'Pran jaye per bachan na jaye'which Ashaji sung beautifully putting her whole heart in to it.The song won the Filmfare award and became very popular.But sadly the relations between the two legends had strained by then and the great partnership was over for ever.

@jalzala - Thank you my dear friend for the informative comment.

I too have heard about the "strained relationship" between those two legends, sadly.

Thank you.
