Classic Sad Songs - Part 24 - Indian Cinema - 1949 To 1983

These are some of the most popular Hindi "Sad Songs" of Indian Cinema, produced between 1949 and 1983. Apparently, there are so many but due to copyright issues, I had to skip many of them!
Please note that I have selected these songs as "Sad" considering ONLY the melody and not the lyrics since I do not know Hindi or Urdu languages.
Almost all the songs are very popular in my country, Sri Lanka too.
Thank you.
Yuan.

@yuanyuanyuanyin - you have replied in Hindi !

It is the Best comment for me !!

[yuanyuanyuanyin]

@MrYogi1965 - Of course. Some Hindi words like "Bohot Shukriya, Pyar, Zindagi and some film's names like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Sangam, Aradhana" are very common over here too. LOL

Actually in my case, I have learned many more words [from the friends] after starting posting these Hindi song during the last 3 years!

Thank you.

[MrYogi1965]

@yuanyuanyuanyin - That's Great !

It is necessary for you to know some Hindi to select Songs from a Huge List.

[yuanyuanyuanyin]

@BharatGul - Thank you my dear Professor again for your extremely kind words.

Not that MPHOT [Monkey Praising His Own Tail. LOL] but this is an extremely difficult task.

Just now I posted the Part 25 but was blocked by a copyright claim so I removed it and doing again without that song. 3 hours wasted!

If one song is blocked, the whole video is gone!

But still I must say that " fully worth the trouble", since there were many NEW encouraging comments coming every day!

Thanks and take care.

[BharatGul]

I must say again, Yuan, you are doing great service for all those who love old Bombay songs by organizing them thematically. Best as always.
