Mukesh - Jaoon Kahaan Bataye Dil - Chhoti Bahen [1959]

"Chhoti Bahen" is a 1959 Hindi film that stars Nanda in the title role, and Balraj Sahni, Shyama, Mehmood and Rehman.
Music is by Shankar Jaikishan and lyrics by Hasrat Jaipuri.............

Mukesh Chand Mathur (Hindi: मुकेश चन्द माथुर) (22 July 1923 27 August 1976) was an Indian playback singer of Bollywood. Along with Mohammad Rafi, Manna Dey, Kishore Kumar, he dominated Indian film playback music from the 1950s to the 1970s.

Mukesh's voice was noticed by Motilal (a popular actor in Hindi films, also a distant relative of Mukesh) when he sang at his sister's wedding. Motilal took him to Bombay, let him stay with him and even arranged for singing lessons by pandit jagannath prasad for him. During this period, Mukesh managed to bag a role in a Hindi film, Nirdosh (Innocent) (1941). His first song was dil hi bujha hua ho to as an actor singer for Nirdosh. He got his break as a playback singer for Actor Motilal himself in 1945 with the film Pehli Nazar'music by Anil Biswas & Lyrics by Aah Sitapuri' (First Look). The first song he sang for a Hindi film was Dil Jalta Hai to Jalne De (If the heart burns, let it burn), which was incidentally picturised on Motilal.

Mukesh died of a heart attack on 27 August 1976 in Detroit, Michigan, USA, where he had gone for a concert. His body was carried back to India by Lata Mangeshkar, where a grand funeral ceremony took place as many famous actors, personalities of the Indian film industry, and fans paid tribute to the late singer. When the news of his death reached Raj Kapoor, he remarked, "I have lost my voice," which is a testimony to the timeless and unforgettable association of Mukesh's voice (in playback) to the immensely popular songs of Raj Kapoor's films.

Hello Yuan and thank you. Nice song penned by Hasrat Jaipuri. Films Bhabhi Chhoti Bahen and Do Raaste had similar stories. First two had Nanda and Balraj Sahni was in all three. Typical dramatic love and true hatred is shown in all of them. Yup, that's how the producers make their money out of pure and sheer HIPOCRACY. And I think to myself.....what a wonderful worrrrrrrrrrrrld.
