ML: Me Lord (Judge of Filmi Muqaddama)

bahenon aur bhaaiyon aapke 'radio' dost Ameen Sayani ki koshish
Sangeet ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil mein yeh rehti hai film sangeet ke
Khazaane ke sabhi moti, yaani puraane bhi aur naye bhi, sabhi moti

mein kabhi kabhi mujhe aise log mil jaate hain jinki kalaa kuchh
seemeet si zaroor rahi lekin kaam unhone jo kiya sab ka sab gazab ka
kiya.

---------------------------------------------------------
Song: kaun ho tum jo dil mein samaaye jaate ho (Maashooq)
---------------------------------------------------------

bahenon aur bhaaiyon, film Mashooq ke isi mashoor geet ke shaayar
hain aaj ki mehfil ke sangeet sitaare jinka inteqaal huya tha 2002
mein. yeh ek aise purjosh guNee shaayar the jinki tabeeyat mein
shoKhi bhi thi aur sharaarat bhi thi saahab. kai baras pehle yeh
baaGi naujawaan apni taqdeer aur apne zameer ke sholon ko sameTkar
apna bharaa poora ghar chhoDkar Bambai chalaa aaya tha. aur uske dil
mein machalti huyi shaayari yeh keh rahi thi...

---------------------------------------------------------
Song: aaj mera bhi armaan nikal jaayega (Khoon Ki Pukaar)
---------------------------------------------------------

aur ab yeh suniye bahenon aur bhaaiyon ki yeh geet tha film Khoon Ki
Pukaar ka. iske shaayar the us zamaane ke josheele naujawaan Gauhar
Kanpuri. Gauhar saahab ki chaal Dhaal aur baatchit mein maine itna
dhoom dhaDaakaa paaya ki maine unko fauran apne filmi muqaddame
ke 'programme' mein gher liya tha aur pehla ilzaam bhi un par yahi
lagaaya tha ki:

*********************
MC: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri par sabse pehla ilzaam yeh hai ki yeh baDe
hi jhagDaaloo kism ke aadmi hain aur baat baat par mar maarne par
tayyaar ho jaate hain.

AS: jee haan baheno aur bhaaiyon, yeh baat na keval inki shKhseeyat
ka hissa hai balki inki filmi shaayari mein bhi iski kai misaalen
milengi 'me lord'. maslan, mulzim ne film Zakhmee mein Holi
ke 'situation' par rangon ki bauchhaar ki bajaay Khoon ki nadiyaan
bahaaee hain 'me lord'. agar aap ijaazat den to main aap ko us geet
ki ek jhalak sunwaana chaahoonga.

ML: zaroor sunwaaiye.

------------------------------------
Clip: aali re aali re holi (Zakhmee)
------------------------------------

AS: 'me lord' aap ne dekhaa.... mera matlab hai aap ne sunaa 'me
lord' mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri ki haathaapaaee, inki maaraa-maari inke
jeean par hi naheen balki inki shaayari par bhi chhaayi huyi hai 'me
lord'.

GK: laahaul vilaaquwat! yeh kya 'charge' huya! vakeel saahab, holi ka
naya rang laanaa koi jurm to naheen! bhai, maine baGaawat kee hai,
holi ke un tamaam gaano se baGaawat kee hai jinmen rang lagaa lo ang
bheegaa lo, iske aage kuchh hote hi naheen. film ki 'situation' bhi
mujhe ubhaar rahi thi ki main naye andaaz se naya rang chhalkaayun.
aur main usmein kaamyaab raha aur yeh gaana film Zakhmee
ka 'highlight' ban gaya. hindustaan ka kaun sa shahar, kaun sa
mohalla aisa hoga jahaan holi saje aur yeh geet na baje! holi jale
aur yeh geet na chale!

------------------------------------
Song: aali re aali re holi (Zakhmee)
------------------------------------

**********************************


Sangeet ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil ke parwaano, aaj ke hamaare 'programme'
mein woh filmi muqaddama shuru ho chuka hai jo maine prasiddha
shaayar Gauhar Kanpuri par lagwaaya tha kai kai baras pehle, jab unka
sitaara kaafi buland tha. magar bahenon aur bhaaiyon, muqaddame ke
pehle 'charge' ke jawaab mein jo kahaa tha Gauhar Kanpuri saahab ne
uska maine ek chhoTa sa hissa sunwaaya aaj ke 'programme' mein kyunki
us 'charge' ke jawaab ke baaki hisse mein Gauhar Kanpuri saahab bahut
bhaDak gaye the, jee haan, aur agar unka bhaDakna maine yahaan sunwa
diya na to yeh mehfil sangeet ki naheen balki laDaai jhagaDe ki ho
jaayegi! to isliye main bajaaye us hangaame ke film Zakhmee ka hi ek
aur geet sunwaata hoon bahenon aur bhaaiyon jisse aapko pataa
chalegaa bahenon aur bhaaiyon ki agar Gauhar saahab ki tabeeyat mein
dhoom-dhaDaaka tha to shaayaraana, aashiqaana, narmee bhi tha.

--------------------------------------
Song: abhi abhi thi dushmani (Zakhmee)
--------------------------------------

aur bahenon is moD par aata hai woh aglaa 'charge' jo 1979 mein
chalaaye us filmi muqaddame mein Gauhar Kanpuri saahab par lagaa tha.
suniye yeh chaarge muqaddame ke 'madam clerk' ki aawaaz mein:

*********************************
MC: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri par doosra ilzaam yeh hai yeh baDe hi
Khuddaar, baDe hi swaabhimaani bane phirte hain. zaraa sa bhi apmaan
bardaasht naheen karte. naak par makkhee bhi naheen baiThne dete.

GK: 'Madam Clerk' naak meri hai, main is par makkhee baiThne doon yaa
haathi, kisi ko kya takleef?

AS: Mr Gauhar Kanpuri saahab, aap zaraa poora 'charge' to sun leejiye.

GK: to sunaaiye.

MC: yeh naak par makkhee bhi naheen baiThne dete. lekin filmi duniya
mein jab Gauhar Kanpuri ne qadam rakhaa to naak jhukaakar qadam
rakhaa.

AS: jee haan 'me lord', inhone 15 saal tak, seena taan taan kar filmi
duniya mein daaKhil hone ke liye 'struggle' kee, koshish kee,
jaddojahad kee, lekin inki daal bilkul naheen galee 'me lord'. aaKhir
inhe 'producer' Tahir Hussain ke aage haath joDnaa paDaa, sar
jhukaana paDaa, giDgiDaana paDaa, tab jaake inhe kaam milaa.

GK: kya,.. kya..., matlab kahaan kahaan se likhwaakar le aate ho aisi
ilzaamaat? Tahir saahab se meri mulaaqaat baDi shaan se huyi hai,
agar aap sunna chaahte hain to main apni aur Tahir saahab ki pehli
mulaaqaat ka waaqyaat sunaayun?

AS: jee haan, sunaaiye sunaaiye

GK: yeh huya tha wakeel saahab, main Tahir saahab ke 'office'
pahuncha tha, apni naam ki parchi bhijwaaee, Tahir saahab ne mujhe
apne 'office' mein bulaaya, lekin bahut masroof the, kahaa ki 'aaj
main aapko sirf 15 'minute' de sakta hoon, ismein aap apni shaayari
ka chamatkaar dikhaaiye, agar aap kuchh samajh mein aa gaye to sochaa
jaayegaa, Gaur kiya jaayegaa', phir Tahir saahab ne mujhse
chaai, 'coffee' yaa ThanDe ke vaaste poochha, maine kahaa 'naheen,
chaai aaj rehne deejiye, main aapko gaane sunaata hoon varnaa '15
minute' ka jo 'time' hai woh chaai us 'time' ko pee jaayegi'. Tahir
saahab hanse, Tahir saahab ne kahaa ki 'chaai ke baad aap ko '15
minute' deeye jaayenge gaana sunwaane ke vaaste', aur saahab, jab
maine unko apna kalaam, apna gaana sunaana shuru kiya, to us waqt
dopahar ke 3 baje the aur...

AS: aur jab aap ne apna kalaam sunaakar daftar se baahar qadam rakhaa
tab mera Khayaal hai dopahar ke kuchh 3 bajkar 5 'minute' huye honge?

GK: naheen mohataram wakeel saahab, us waqt shaam ke 7 baj chuke the.

ML: 7 baj chuke the? yaani 4 ghanTe tak aap sunaate rahe? hamein bhi
sunaaiye wahaan aap ne kya sunaaya.

GK: kya keh rahe 'me lord', aap bhi sher-o-shaayari ka shauk rakhte
hain?

ML: 'order, order!' shauk ke liye naheen, ham aapki shaayari saboot
ke liye sunna chaahte hain.

AS: lekin 'objection me lord!', agar yeh 4 ghanTe tak sunaate rahe
apni shaayari to hamaara muqaddama to Khatam ho jaayega aadhe ghanTe
mein.

ML: waqeel saahab, 4 ghanTe ke liye naheen, ham inke sirf 4 sher
sunenge. 'yes' mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri, woh sher sunaaiye jo us din aap
ne Tahir saahab ko sunaaye.

GK: Tahir Hussain saahab ko, jahaan tak mujhe yaad paDta hai ki,
filmi aur Gair filmi, bahut si cheezen sunaaee thi, 'judge' saahab,
filhaal main aapko do filmi aur do Gair filmi, yaani ke ilmee cheezen
pesh karta hoon. filmi suniye, "tumhe main kya samajhta hoon sanam
yeh kya pataa tumko, Khuda ka Khauf na hotaa to keh deta Khudaa
tumko".

Public: waah waah waah!

GK: aadaab arz hai! aur arz kiya hai, "mohabbat ki Dagar pe aise bhi
kuchh moD aate hain, jahaan par log apne hamsafar ko chhoD aate hain"

Public: waah waah, waah! kya baat hai, kya baat hai

GK: farmaate hain, zaraa, do teen adabi matle hain, pesh hai...

Public: irshaad

GK: "hai manzilen to zer-e-qadam beshumaar dost, manzil ke baad kya
hai zaraa dekhta chaloon"

Public: waah waah

GK: "aadaab arz hai, arz hai, "tujhse na Gark hogi meri kashti-e-
hayaat, ae naKhuda Khuda ki qasam tu Khuda naheen"

Public: kya baat hai, waah waah!

GK: ek sher aur arz hai 'me lord'

AS: 'objection me lord', lagta hai adaalat ke hathoDe ko mulzim ki
shaayari ne pakaD liya hai 'me lord/'? log adaalat ko mushaayra
banaaye jaa rahe hain aur aap 'order order' hi naheen keh rahe
hain 'me lord'?

ML: 'order order', waqeel saahab, 'judge' aap hain yaa ham? mulzim
Gauhar Kanpuri, yeh sher-o-shaayari to band keejiye, aur yeh bataaiye
ki aapka kalaam sunne ke baad Tahir Hussain saahab ne kya kahaa?

GK: Tahir Hussain saahab ne, 'me lord', mujhse vaada kiya ki 'main
apni film mein aap se gaane likhwayunga', aur bahut jald unhone apna
vaada poora kiya aur Zakhmee film mujhe inaayat kee.

ML: haan haan, jismein woh Holi waala gaana tha?

GK: jee 'me lord', usmein ek se ek Khoobsoorat gaane aur bhi the,
shaayad waqeel saahab ne naheen sune, agar ijaazat ho to...

ML: zaroor sunwaaiye.

GK: to leejiye pesh hai

-------------------------------------------------
Song: jalta hai jiya mera bheegi bheegi (Zakhmee)
-------------------------------------------------

GK: aur iske baad unhone banaaee film Phir Janam Lenge Hum. usmein
bhi hamko mauka diya, poora poora mauka diya, uska ek gaana logon ko
bahut pasand aaya, mujhe bhi bahut pasand hai...

-----------------------------------------------
Song: sooni sooni raahen (Phir Janam Lenge Hum)
-----------------------------------------------

GK: aur uske baad Khoon Ki Pukaar. uska yeh gaana dekhiye gali gali
bajaa hai, bahut mashoor huya hai...

-----------------------------------------------------
Song: bole paayaliya jaise koyaliya (Khoon Ki Pukaar)
-----------------------------------------------------

*********************************


bahenon aur bhaaiyon, Gauhar Kanpuri saahab par jo woh muqaddama
chalaa bahut baras pehle, usey aaj sunkar mujhe yaad aa raha hai ki
filmi adaalat mein ham sab ne unke saath gustaaKhiyaan isliye kee thi
ki unse meri kaafi dosti ho gayi thi aur itni betaqallufi thi ham
dono mein ki unhone 'programme' ki 'recording' shuru karne se pehle
keh hi diya tha mujhse ki 'Ameen bhaai, aap be-fikr hokar jitne bhi
ilzaam lagaana chaahen lagaaiye mujhpe, baDaa mazaa aayegaa'. isliye
doston, un par lagaaya huya jo teesra 'charge' tha woh bhi kaafi
kaDak tha.

**********************************
MC: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri ko jo bhi kuchh kaam mila hai, woh sirf
sangeetkaar Bappi Lahiri aur sangeet nirdeshikaa Usha Khanna ki
chamchaagiri ki badaulat mila hai.

AS: yeh baat qaabil-e-Gaur hain 'me lord' ki 'producer' Tahir Hussain
ke alaawaa Bappi Lahiri aur Usha Khanna hi woh do hastiyaan hain
jinke sahaare mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri ki daal roTi aaj tak chal rahi
hai. Tahir Hussain ki film Zakhmee, aur Phir Janam Lenge Hum, aur
Khoon Ki Pukaar ke 'music director' kyunki Bappi Lahiri hi the,
isliye Tahir saahab ki baat woh to Taalnaa naheen chaahte the 'me
lord' aur jahaan tak Usha Khanna ka sawaal hai, to mera Khayaal hai
yakeenan mulzim ne apni chikni chupDee shaayaraana baaton se behla
phuslaakar unse kaam haasil kar liya. Do Khiladi, aur Salaam-e-
Mohabbat, aur Dada jaisi filmon mein.

-------------------------------
Clip: allaah karam karna (Dada)
-------------------------------

AS: magar yeh baat 'note' kee jaaye 'me lord' ki in do 'music
directors' ke alaawa aur koi bhi 'music director' Gauhar Kanpuri se
gaana likhwaana hi naheen chaahta.

GK: offff ho... ek saans mein itne lambe chauDe ilzaamaat ko, tauba
tauba tauba, yeh aap se kisne keh diya waqeel saahab ki Bappi Lahiri
aur Usha Khanna ke alaawaa baahar kahin main likh naheen raha hoon?
beesiyon 'picture' hai mere paas, baahar ke 'music directors' hain
jinke saath main kaam kar raha hoon aur aapse main yeh arz kar doon
waqeel saahab ki main daal roTi naheen, paraanThe, korma, biryaani,
yeh sab khaa raha hoon aur apne un saathiyon ke saath khaa raha hoon
jinhone bure waqt mein mera saath diya tha.

Public claps.

AS: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri, bhookh to aap ko lagi hi hogi, ghar jaakar
aap paraanThe, biryaani to khaayenge, lekin yahaan kam se kam
ek 'music director' ka naam to ginaa deejiye jinke saath aap kaam kar
rahe hain.

GK: suniye waqeel saahab, ab aap chheD hi rahe hain to suniye, ek
film hai Shaadi Se Pehle, Sapan Jagmohan ka naam to sunaa hogaa
waqeel saahab?

AS: jee haan, bilkul suna hai

GK: usi film mein main saare gaane likh raha hoon, uska ek mukhDaa
suniye, gaane to bahut pyaare pyaare hain, lekin ek suniye, "ek
Khoobsoorat laDkee mujhe raat ko mili thi", aur waqeel saahab, Saawan
Ko Aane Do, naye ubharte huye 'music director' hain usmein, hamaare
dost Rajkamal, aur uske bol hain, balki 'title song' kahiye
usko, "tumhe geeton mein Dhaaloonga, zaraa saawan ko to aane do".

------------------------------------------------------
Song: tumhe geeton mein Dhaaloonga (Saawan Ko Aane Do)
------------------------------------------------------

GK: ek aur film hai Anpadh, jiske mausikaar, yaani ki sangeetkaar
hain Hemant Bhosle. aur woh gaana suniye is bheDchaal ke zamaane mein
do premee hain jo taras rahe hain ki kahaan jaakar pyaar karen, kehte
hain "ghar ke andar ammi-abbaa, baahar duniya haaye rabba, kahaan
jaakar karen ham pyaar, yahaan jeena hai dushvaar". aur suniye waqeel
saahab, ek film Mangal Dada jismein mahaan sangeetkaar hain Kalyanji
Anandji, aur usmein 'hit' gaana jise Lataji ne apni pyaari aawaaz
mein gaaya hai "qadam qadam tera pyaar ham paate rahen sanam, tu mera
rahe main teri rahoon rahen saathi janam janam"

******************************


aur yahaan main aap se aaj bol raha hoon bahenon aur bhaaiyon, yaani
us filmi muqaddame ke bahut barson baad bol raha hoon ki Gauhar
Kanpuri ne ek film bahut hi guNee sangeetkaar Jaidev ke saath bhi kee
thi, woh film thi Ek Hans Ka Jodaa, leejiye uska bhi ek geet sun
leejiye.

-----------------------------------------
Song: ek hans ka joDaa (Ek Hans Ka Jodaa)
-----------------------------------------

bahenon aur bhaaiyon, Sangeet ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil ka
yeh 'programme' to aap aaj sun rahe hain, lekin ismein jo filmi
muqaddama dohraaya gaya hai woh 1979 mein 'record' huya tha, unke
dehaant se 23 saal pehle. Gauhar Kanpuri saahab par chalaaye huye us
muqaddame mein un par ek 'charge' unki 'family life' par bhi lagaa
tha. pesh hai, suniye...


**********************************
MC: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri ko aurat zaat se saKht nafrat hai. yeh apni
shaayari ke kuchh johar dikhaakar Gauhar to ban gaye magar shauhar
naheen ban paaye.

GK: achchha waqeel saahab, shaayad kisi ka Dar hai aapko, to aap to
mohabbat ka lafz dabaakar keh gaye, to aap yeh kehna chaah rahe hain
na ki mohabbat aur shaadi, to waqeel saahab, maine mohabbat kee, aur
us waqt kee jab meri umra sirf 14 saal ki thi.

AS: sirf 14 saal ki thi! to phir mera Khayaal hai us baalika ki umra
kuchh 6/7/8 saal ki rahi hogi?

GK: jee naheen waqeel saahab, woh baalika, yaani meri mehbooba thi 20
saal ki

AS: 20 saal ki? mulzim ne hamesha apni umra se baDh chaDh ke baat kee
hai 'me lord'!

GK: waqeel saahab, mohabbat mein umra naheen dekhee jaati. Khud
hamaari biwi ki umra aap se zyaada hai na 'me lord'?

ML: 'order order', aap hamaari biwi ke baare mein naheen, apni
mohabbat ke baare mein bataaiye. kya aapki mohabbat kaamyaab huyi?

GK: 'me lord', mohabbat kaamyaab hokar biwi ban jaati hai, aur main
naakaamyaab raha, lekin maine shaadi kee kisi aur se.

ML: shaadi kee? lekin ilzaam to yeh hai ki aap shauhar naheen ban
paaye?

GK: 'me lord', maina arz kar raha hoon ki maine shaadi kee kisi aur
se, aur woh koi aur jo hai uska naam hai shaayari, sher-o-shaayari
jise kahaa jaata hai. aur us shaayari ne mujhe bachche bhi deeye.

ML: bachche?

GK: jee haan bachche, bachche aur bachchiyaan, jaise meri Ghazlen
meri bachchiyaan hain, aur mere geet mere waaste honhaar bachche
hain.

Public: Gauhar saahab, aap hamein apni kisi bachchi se to milwaaiye.

GK: o to aap Ghazal sunna chaahte hain? haan, main pesh karta hoon,
lekin janataa ki adaalat mein Guzaarish karoonga ki agar woh Ghazal
aapke saamne pesh kee jaaye to beech mein taali na bajaaya jaaye,
kyunki shaayari baDi sharmilee hai, balki samajh leejiye abhi abhi
uske chehre se naqaab uThaa hai, pehli baar. aur janataa se Guzaarish
karte hain ki meri laDkee jab tak paDhti rahe beech mein taaliyaan na
bajaaiyegaa, bechaari bahut sharmilee hai. aur haan, jab woh paDhke
jaa chuke, tab jitni jee chaahe taaliyaan bajaa leejiyegaa. to
leejiye laDkee ke chehere se naqaab uThaaya jaa raha hai, yaani mere
Ghazal ke chehre se naqaab uThaaya jaa raha hai. arz hai, "har daur
mein har majnu ke liye patthar ki zaroorat paDti hai, zaKhm ke liye
marham ki naheen nashtar ki zaroorat paDti hai. na jaane yeh
duniyawaale kyun abdaar-o-rasal Thukraate hain, bhai mansoor to aa hi
jaata hai jab sar ki zaroorat paDti hai. is gardish-e-duniya ki
mujhpe yeh chashm-e-inaayat Khoob rahi, is gardish-e-duniya ko bhi to
ek mehmat ki zaroorat paDti hai. woh katraa-e-Khoon ho yaa aansoo
Tapkaa jo shab-e-aaKhir aaKhir, us katraa-e-aaKhir ko aaKhir Gauhar
ki zaroorat paDti hai."

Public claps.
**************************************


bahenon aur bhaaiyon, sunaa aapne, us puraane muqaddame mein Gauhar
Kanpuri saahab ne janataa ko apni ek beTi, yaani ki ek GHazal se
milwaaya tha, aur aaj main aapko Gauhar saahab ke ek honhaar beTe se,
yaani ki ek filmi geet se milwaayunga jo unki kareeb kareeb aaKhri
mashoor filmi geeton mein se ek tha. aapko yaad hogaa Anu Malik ke
sangeet se sanvree huyi ek film aayi thi Baazigar jismein Gauhar
saahab ne sirf ek geet likha tha aur saahab, baDaa hi Khoobsoorat
geet tha woh!

---------------------------------------------------
Song: ae mere hamsafar ae meri jaanejaan (Baazigar)
---------------------------------------------------

doston, Gauhar Kanpuri ke purasar, purbahaar, purkashish geet sunkar
main unka 'fan' to ban hi gaya tha lekin filmi muqaddame mein to mera
kaam tha filmi waqeel bankar 'charge' lagwaana, to dekhiye
aaKhri 'charge' jo un par lagwaaya gaya woh kaun sa tha:


**************************************
MC: mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri par aaKhri ilzaam yeh hai ki yeh ahsaan
faraamosh aur Gair zimmedaar aadmi hain.

AS: itna hi naheen 'me lord', balki mulzim Gauhar Kanpuri ne apne
Khaandaan, apne parivaar ke saath bahut buraa suloog kiya 'me lord'.
Bambai aane ke koi saal bhar ke baad inhone apne ghar Kanpur mein ek
jhooThaa taar bhijwaaya ke yeh ek 'train accident' mein maare gaye
hain. is Khabar se inke gharwaalon ko kitna dukh pahunchaa hogaa 'me
lord' aap Khud hi andaazaa lagaa sakte hain. main to kahoonga mulzim
par is kaam ke liye 'fraud' ka muqaddamaa chalaaya jaana chaahiye.

GK: 'yes me lord', waqeel saahab ne bahut zabardast 'charge' lagaaya
hai aur sahee bhi hai, main tasleem karta hoon, lekin meri jazbaati
Galati yaa is harkat ke peechhe kuchh kahaani bhi hai, chand lafzon
mein, agar aap ijaazat den to arz karoon.

ML: jee haan, ham zaroor sunna chaahenge

GK: to arz hai 'me lord', yeh baat hai san 1960 ki jab main Bombay
aaya tha, aur yeh sochke aaya tha ki ek saal mein main bahut baDaa
laaT-saahab, yaani ki geetkaar ban jaayunga filmon mein, aur apne
gharwaalon ko Khush kar doonga, sabki Khidmat kar doonga, aur apne
girte huye Khaandaan ko phir usi 'level' par le aayunga. lekin ek
saal ke arse mein 'me lord' main 'footpath'-on par maaraa maara
phirta raha, saDkon mei paDe beeDiyaan, 'cigarette' ko uThaake been
been ke peetaa raha, bhookha pyaasaa teen teen din ke, aur udhar ghar
se biryaani mein mein bheege 'letter' aa rahe hain 'me lord'
ke 'beTaa chale aayo, bhaiyaa chale aayo, aag lage aise Bombay
ko'. 'me lord' main ziddi to tha, yeh meri bewakoofi samajhiye, kuchh
bhi samajhiye, Galat mashwaraa diya mere dimaag ne mere dil ko aur
maine ek jaali 'telegram' rawaana kiya ki main 'train' se kaT ke mar
chuka hoon. 'me lord' mera mqsad tha usmein. maqsad yeh ki bajaaye
din bhar mere maa baap bhaai bahan taDapte rahe, woh saal ke ek din
ro len, mujhe bhool jaayen aur main kam se kam unko duniyaadaari ke
taur se bhoola rahoon aur kuchh kar loon to achaanak unko chaunkaa
doon. achaanak woh baag baag ho jaayenge ki ek murdaa phir se zindaa
ho gaya. lekin bahut der ho gayi 'me lord'! yeh meri badkismati hai
ki itni der ho gayi ki jab main kuchh banaa, yaani aj jis haal mein
main aapke saamne hoon, kuchh banke aapke saamne hoon, mera sab kuchh
bigaD chukaa hai. mere pitaaji naheen rahe, meri maa naheen rahi,
mere bahan bhaai idhar udhar bikhar gaye, ujaD gaye sab log, aur 'me
lord' 20 saal se main yahi sazaa bhugattaa chala aa raha hoon ki, har
raat, har lamhaa, har pal. ab kaun si aisi sazaa reh gayi hai 'me
lord' jo aap mujhe denaa chaahte hain yaa yeh adaalat dena chaahti
hai, mere sar aankho pe. sazaaen jhelte jhelte, ya yun kahiye ki
mushkilen yun paDee mujhpe, 'me lord' iske aage mujhe kuchh naheen
kehna hai, main aapki har sazaa bhugatne ke liye tayyaar hoon.

Song: dil jalne lagaa (Khoon Ki Pukaar)
---------------------------------------

bahenon aur bhaaiyon, Gauhar Kanpuri saahab ke us filmi muqaddame ko
aur Khoon Ki Pukaar film mein likhe huye unke is geet ko yaad karte
huye aaj meri bhi aankhen kuchh kuchh nam ho gayi hain kyunki yeh
shaayar bhi hamaari filmi duniya ki kai aur sangeet sitaaron ki tarah
aaKhir hamein chhoD hi gaya. Gauhar saahab ke inteqaal ki taareeKh
thi 29 June 2002. woh ek sholaa tha jo bujh gaya, lekin uski tapan
uske geeton mein hamesha hamesha baaqi rahegi hamaare dilon ko
garmaane ke liye.

ab dekh leejiye bahenon aur bhaaiyon, hamaare 'programme' bhi apne
aadhe avtaar mein punarjanam ka hi to prateek hai. guzre huye
shaandaar sangeet sitaaron ki aawaazen, yaani bolti huyi aawaazen
phir zindaa ho jaati hain, aur phir aapko apni sureelee jeevan kathaa
sunaati hai, aur kai baar Sangeet ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil mein aate
hain woh log jo aaj bhi shaan se gaa rahe hain, likh rahe hain, yaa
sur sajaa rahe hain. ab inmein se kaun hogaa hamaara agla sangeet
sitaara yeh to tabhi pataa chalegaa jab aap Ameen Sayani ke saath
baiThkar sunenge Sangeet ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil ka agla 'programme.
sunenge na? dhanyavaad!

YOUTH EXPRESS

LIGHT HOUSE - EK KAAMYAAB YUVA KI KAHAANI: MOHIT CHAUHAN
--------------------------------------------------------

Light House Youth Express ka ek aisa stambh hai jismein ham aapko ek
kaamyaab yuvaa ki kahaani sunaate hain. aaj ham jis kaamyaab yuvaa ke
baare mein bataane jaa rahe hain woh na to koi saazinde hain, na hi
khilaaDi, aur na hi koi vaigyaanik, balki aaj ham baat kar rahe hain
ek aawaaz ki. woh aawaaz jisne kiya hai jawaan dilon ke dhaDkanon par
raaj...

Clip: Khoon chalaa (Rang De Basanti)


woh aawaaz hai is naye daur ke gaayakon ki shaan, naam hai inka Mohit
Chauhan.

Clip: na hai yeh paanaa na khonaa hi hai (Jab We Met)


Mohit Chauhan pahaaDon ke rehnewaale hain. wahaan se pehle to woh
Delhi pahunche. darasal Himachal ki vaadiyon ne unke man mein sangeet
ke sanskaar Daale, parivaar se bhi unhe sangeet ke sanskaar mile.
Delhi mein Mohit Chauhan 10 saal rahe. Delhi ke galiyon mein unke
bheetar ka sangeet panpaa, aur unka taazaa geet jo aajkal bahut
lokapriya ho raha hai, uska taalluKh bhi Delhi se hi hai, masakkali.

Clip: masakkali masakkali (Delhi 6)


Mohit Chauhan maante hain ki kisi bhi geet kitna hi achchha ho, aaj
ke zamaane mein uski 'marketing' Theek tareeke se ho, to hi woh
sheersh par pahunch paataa hai. varnaa woh ansunaa aur anjaana sa reh
jaata hai. ab yeh baat Mohit Chauhan se behetar kaun jaanta hoga
jisne sangeet ki duniya mein 2-3 baar waapasi kee, phir gumnaami mein
kho gaye.

Song: na hai yeh paanaa na khonaa hi hai (Jab We Met)


jo log sangeet ki duniya par paini nazar rakhte hain unhe pataa hogaa
ki Mohit Chauhan jaane-maane 'band' Silk Route ke 'lead vocalist'
the. yaani Silk Route ke sabhi gaano mein unki aawaaz zaroor huya
karti thi aur Silk Route ke ek 'album' ka ek gaana aapko bahut yaad
hogaa, woh gaana hai yeh...

Song: Dooba Dooba rehta hai (Boonden - Silk Route)


bhai, yeh gaana hamne poora sunwaaya aur iski bhi ek vajah thi,
thoDaa sa 'nostalgia' aur Silk Route 'album' ki pratibhaa ko salaam.
Silk Route ke pehle 'album' Boonden se liya gaya yeh gaana tha jise
bahut se mashoor 'awards' bhi mile the. poori ki poori peeDhee Silk
Route ke is 'album' ko sunte huye aur gungunaate huye baDee huyi hai.
Mohit Chauhan ka doosra 'album' aaya tha Pehchaan jise bahut zyaada
khyaati naheen mili aur Silk Route 'band' is 'album' ke baad bikhar
bhi gaya. ab in baaton ko dohraane ka bahut matlab naheen hai lekin
Mohit Chauhan ka kehna hai ki ab woh 'band' banaane ke baare mein
kabhi naheen sochte, kyunki kisi 'band' ko nibhaana aur chalaana apne
aap mein bahut mushkil hota hai. Mohit Chauhan kehte hain ki unhone
kabhi apne 'career' ki 'planning' naheen kee, jo kuchh saamne aata
gaya woh apni poori mehnat ke saath aur poori taaqat ke saath bas
nibhaate chale gaye. jab unhone Mumbai ke film udyog mein qadam
rakhaa to ek chhoTi si film thi Lets Enjoy, jismein ek gaana unhone
gaaya tha "sabse peechhe". is gaane ne unhe thoDi bahut pehchaan to
dee lekin Mumbai mein apna Khaas naam woh qaayam naheen kar paaye.
iske baad Road film ke is gaane ne Mohit Chauhan ko zabardast
pehchaan dee...

Song: pehli nazar mein karee thi (Road)


iske baad J Om Prakash Mehra ki kraantikaari film aayi Rang De
Basanti aur ismein ek kraantikaari geet mila Mohit Chauhan ko, jisne
Mumbai ki film jagat mein is anooThi aawaazwaale gaayak ka sikka
jamaa diya.

Song: Khoon chalaa (Rang De Basanti)


iske baad Jab We Met ka yeh gaana aaya...

Song: na hai yeh paanaa na khonaa hi hai (Jab We Met)


iske baad Kismat Konnection ka yeh gaana...

Clip: kahin naa laage man (Kismat Konnection)


iske baad film Fashion ka yeh geet...

Clip: shaayad yeh pyaar hai (Fashion)


aur phir Welcome To Sajjanpur film ka yeh gaana...

Clip: palkon ke peechhe chhalke (Welcome To Sajjanpur)


is tarah se Mohit Chauhan aaj ki peeDhee ke sabse pratibhaashaali
gaayakon mein se ek ho gaye hain. in dino Mohit Chauhan apni
ek 'album' ki tayyaari kar rahe hain, aur woh kehte hain ki is par
lok-sangeet ka asar zaroor hoga kyunki Mohit Chauhan ka maanna hai ki
jo vyakti ek baar pahaaD par reh leta hai, pahaaD uske man ki
vaadiyon mein ghus jaate hain, aur hameshaa woh Khud ko pahaaDon par
rehta huya hi maantaa hai. chaahe woh kisi bhi baDe shahar mein reh
jaaye, bheetar ke pahaaD hameshaa zindaa rehte hain. Mohit Chauhan ki
yeh baat aap ke is dost Yunus Khan ko bahut pasand aayi hai, aur is
anooThe pratibhaashaali gaayak ki pratibhaa ko salaam kar rahe hain.
Youth Expres ke is stambh Light House - Ek Kaamyaab Yuva Ki Kahaani
ke zariye ham Mohit Chauhan ko de rahe hain ek shaandaar 'career' ke
liye bahut saari shubhkaamnaayen.

Clip: Dooba Dooba rehta hai (Boonden - Silk Route)

CHHAYA GEET - GUZRE ZAMAANE KE ANMOL NAGHMEN
--------------------------------------------

Presenter: Yunus Khan
---------------------

Chhaya Geet ke sunnewaalon ko Yunus Khan ka namaskaar! Chhaya Geet ke
is mehfil mein jab kabhi bhi meri aur aapki mulaaqat hoti hai to main
aapke liye lekar aata hoon guzre zamaane ke kuchh anmol naGhmen. yeh
woh naGhmen hain jo hamaari man ki vaadiyon mein kahin dabe paDe huye
hain, kahin 'radio' yaa kahin aur se sunaaee naheen dete. aaj ke is
silsile ki shuruwaat ham san 1960 ke ek film se kar rahe hain jiske
do gaane bahut zyaada maqbool huye. ek tha "kashti ka Khaamosh safar
hai, raat bhi hai tanhaai bhi, aaj mujhe kuchh kehna hai", aapko yaad
hogaa Kishore Kumar ka yeh gaana, saath mein Sudha Malhotra theen,
aur yeh gaana aapko bahut bahut bahut yaad aata hogaa. isi tarah se
is film ka doosra gaana kuchh logon ke zahan mein taazaa hai aur woh
gaana hai "aaj rona paDaa to samjhe hansne ka mol kya hai". lekin isi
film mein Lataji ka ek daarshanik kism ka gaana hai jo bahut kam
sunaaee detaa hai. is gaane ka shirshak hai "paise ki kahaani".
darasal is duniya mein paise ko lekar kis kis tarah ki kalaabaaziyaan
hoti hain aur paise ki kis tarah se zindagi mein bhumikaa hoti hai,
paisa kis tarah ke khel rachtaa hai, yahi saari kahaani is gaane mein
Sahir Ludhianvi ne apne shabdon mein piroyi hain. Hemant Kumar is
film ke sangeetkaar the aur apne geet sangeet ke liye yeh film bahut
hi yaad kee jaati hai. to Lata Mangeshkar ki aawaaz mein aaiye sunte
hain "paise ki kahaani".

------------------------------------------
Song: paise ki kahaani (Girl Friend, 1960)
------------------------------------------

Lata Mangeshkar ki aawaaz mein "paise ki kahaani" aap ne sunee. jee
haan, yahi is gaane ka shirshak tha. 1960 mein aayi film Girl Friend
ka yeh geet tha, Sahir Ludhianvi ke bol the aur is gaane ke
sangeetkaar Hemant Kumar. 1960 se chhalaang lagaakar ab 1962 ki or
aaya jaaye. Gulshan Bawra ka ek naGhmaa, yeh zaraa Ghamzadaa aur
naazuk naGhmaa hai, Asha Bhosle ne jais tarah ke shoKh aur uchhaal
bhare geet gaaye hain, yeh unke bilkul viparit hain, aur Ashaji ke
bahut mahatwapoorNa geeton mein iski ginti honi chaahiye thi lekin
yeh guzre zamaane ka ek anmol gaana bankar reh gaya. Gulshan Bawra ke
bol, Ravi ki tarz, film Girls Hostel.

--------------------------------------------------
Song: meri zindagi ke sahaare (Girls Hostel, 1962)
--------------------------------------------------

guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmen aap sun rahe hain Chhaya Geet mein
apne dost Yunus Khan ke sang. aaj ke Chhaya Geet kaaryakram mein abhi
do geet hamne sune, ek mein Lataji ki aawaaz thi, doosre mein Asha
Bhosle ki aawaaz thi. san 1960 aur 1962 se hote huye ab Chhaya Geet
mein geeton ka caravaan san 1963 ki or aa raha hai. film Ek Arman
Mera. is film ka shirshak geet Geeta Roy ne gaaya tha. Madhusudan ne
iske bol likhe the, Sachin Dev Burman ki tarz. Geeta Roy ne jis tarah
ke gaane gaaye hain yeh bilkul usi tarah ka geet hai, lekin iski dhun
zahan mein jaise baiTh jaati hai. aur ho saktaa hai aaj is gaane ko
sunne ke do chaar din baad aap bahut roop se is gaane ko gungunaane
lage. yahi hai is gaane ka jaadoo.

------------------------------------------
Song: ek armaan mera (Ek Arman Mera, 1963)
------------------------------------------

Lataji ki aawaaz mein ek jaadoo hai aur unki aawaaz ke aage bahut
saare visheshaN kamzor paDte nazar aate hain. itne saare geet aur
inmein se Lataji ka ek Khoobsoorat aur pyaara sa guzre zamaane ka
anmol naGhmaa kehlaaye jaanewaala gaana DhoonDnaa zaraa mushkil sa
kaam hota hai. phir bhi Dr Vidya film ka ek geet mere haath lag gaya
jo bahut dino se sunaaee naheen diya tha. ho saktaa hai aap mein se
kuchh logon ke nijee sangrah mein yeh gaana ho, lekin Chhaya Geet
mein is gaane ko shaamil karke mujhe bahut saara sukoon aur bahut
saari tasalli mil rahi hai. main bahut dino baad is gaane ko aapke
saath baanT raha hoon. is film ke geet Majrooh Sultanpuri ne likhe
the aur Sachin Dev Burman ki tarz thi. khanakte huye kangan ki tarah
yeh gaana aapke man ko khankaake rakh degaa, aur yaadon ke taar chheD
degaa.

-----------------------------------------------------
Song: khanke kanganaa bindiyaa hanse (Dr Vidya, 1962)
-----------------------------------------------------

sangeetkaar Roshan. bahut saade saral lekin gehre dhuno ke rachaitaa.
unhone aisa sangeet diya jo itne barson baad bhi yaad kiya jaata hai.
Rajinder Krishan aur Roshan ki jugalbandi mein yeh gaana Mohd Rafi
aur Asha Bhosle ne gaaya tha, film ka naam Aangan. bahut dino baad is
film ki yaad aapko aayi hogi. zaraa is naazuk gaane ko suniye jo ek
yugal geet hai aur bahut hi mahakta huya gaana hai.

---------------------------------------------------
Song: ghunghaT se kyun naina jhaanke (Aangan, 1959)
---------------------------------------------------

agar film Ardhangini ki baat ho to aapko ek do mahatwapoorNa geeton
ki yaad aati hogi. lekin aaj isi film ka ek gumnaam sa geet main
aapke liye lekar aaya hoon, Lataji ki aawaaz hai, san 1959 mein yeh
film aayi thi. Majrooh - Vasant Desai. aaj ke Chhaya Geet kaaryakram
ka bahut hi anmol naGhmaa.

------------------------------------------------
Song: baDe bhole ho hanste ho (Ardhangini, 1959)
------------------------------------------------

Chhaya Geet mein jab bhi meri aur aapki mulaaqat hoti hai to main
aapke liye lekar aata hoon guzre zamaane ke kuchh anmol naGhmen aur
waqt kaise beet jaata hai pataa hi naheen chaltaa. aaj ka silsilaa
hamein yaheen Khatam karna hogaa lekin yakeen maaniye main jab aap se
vidaa loonga, to uske baad guzre zamaane ke kuchh anmol naGhmon ko
khojnaa main shuru kar doonga taaki jab agle hafte mulaaqaat hogi aaj
hi ke din to aapko mile kuchh aur anmol naGhmen. to ab deejiye
ijaazat, namaskaar Yunus Khan ki or se.

VBLC SANGEET KE SITAARE
-----------------------

EPISODE 10: ALI SARDAR JAFRI
----------------------------

namaskaar! VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare ki ek aur kaDee ke saath ham
haazir hain. aaj ka yeh kaaryakram behad shaayaraana hone jaa raha
hai kyunki aaj is kaaryakram ke liye hamne jis sitaare ko chunaa hai
woh pehle ek behad mashoor shaayar hain aur uske baad filmi
geetkaar. filmon ke liye bhale hi woh kamcharchit rahe hon lekin
unki shaayari, unke ashaar aur unki saahityik kritiyon ke dwaara woh
ek amar shaayar ban gaye hain. VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare ka aaj ka yeh
kaaryakram shaayar aur geetkaar Ali Sardar Jafri ke naam!

------------------------------------------
Song: is dil ki haalat kya kahiye (Anhoni)
------------------------------------------

aa ha ha... "is dil ki haalat kya kahiye jo shaad bhi hai naashaad
bhi hai", Lata Mangeshkar ke gaaye san 1952 ki film Anhoni ka yeh
geet sunne ke baad aap ke dil ki haalat kya ho rahi hogi iska
andaazaa ham lagaa sakte hain. Ali Sardar Jafri ka likha aur
sangeetkaar Roshan ka swarbaddha kiya yeh geet sunkar madhurta ke
saagar aap Gote lagaa rahe honge, hai na! aise hi aur bhi bahut se
mashoor geet deeye hain Jafri saahab ne jo aaj ham is kaaryakram
mein sunenge. lekin usse pehle aapko yeh bataa den ki Ali Sardar
Jafri ka janm 27 November 1913 ko Uttar Pradesh ke Balrampur mein
huya tha. unke pitaa ka naam tha Syed Jafar Tayyar Jafri. 25 varsh
ki aayu mein hi unka pehla laghoo kahaani sangrah Manzilen ke naam
se prakaashit ho chuka tha, aur saath hi saath woh mashoor bhi ho
gaye the. yeh thi saal 1938 ki baat. iske 4 saal baad, yaani 1942
mein woh Bambai aa gaye aur 'Parvaaz' shirshak se apni shaayari ka
pehla kitaab jaari kiya. filmon mein unka padaarpaN kab aur kaise
huya, iske baare mein ham aapko thoDi der mein bataayenge, lekin
usse pehle suniye unhi ka likha ek aur geet.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Song: mujhe woh dekhkar jab muskuraenge to kya hoga (Zalzala)
-------------------------------------------------------------

Geeta Roy ki aawaaz mein yeh tha 1952 ki hi film Zalzala ka naGhmaa
jiske sangeetkaar the Pankaj Mullick. isi film mein Sardar Jafri
saahab ne ek jeevan darshan par aadhaarit geet bhi likha tha jise
Pankaj Mullick aur saathiyon ne gaaya tha. chaliye yeh geet bhi
yahaan sunte chalen.

------------------------------------------------
Song: jeevan naiyaa behti jaaye hai ho (Zalzala)
------------------------------------------------

shuru se hi Ali Sardar Jafri prabhaavit rahe Josh Malihabadi, Jigar
Muradabadi aur Firaq Gorakhpuri jaise shaayaron se. san 1933 mein
woh bharti huye Aligarh Muslim University mein. lekin 'communist'
vichaardhaara se prabhaavit rehne ki vajah se unhe san 1936 mein
vishvavidyaalay se nikaal diya gaya. lekin woh himmat naheen haare
aur 1938 mein Dilli Vishvavidyaalay se snaatak ki upaadhi praapt
kee. aage unki paDhaai na chal paayi kyunki yudh virodhi kavitaaen
likhne aur Congress dwaara aayojit raajnaitik gatividhiyon mein
bhaag lene ki vajah se unhe 1940-41 ke aaspaas giraftaar kar liya
gaya tha. 1936 mein unhone Progressive Writers' Movement ke
pehle 'conference' ke 'President' bane. 1939 mein Progressive
Writers' Movement par kendrit Naya Adab patrikaa ke sah-sampaadak
bane and 1949 tak is patrika se juDe rahe. India People's Theatre
Association, yaani IPTA se woh juDe aur yaheen par unki mulaaqaat
huyi mashoor lekhak aur film nirdeshak Khwaja Ahmed Abbas se. san
1946 mein jab K A Abbas film Dharti Ka Lal nirdeshit kar rahe the to
pehli baar unhone Jafri saahab ko ek geet likhne ka mauka diya. is
tarah se Ali Sardar Jafri aa gaye filmi duniya mein. yeh film IPTA
ki film thi aur iske sangeetkaar bhi IPTA ke sadasya aur prakhyaat
sangeetagya Ustad Ravi Shankar the. Balraj Sahni, Tripti Mitra aur
Shombhu Mitra abhineet is film mein Jafri saahab ne kaun sa geet
likha tha yeh aap sunna naheen chaahenge? leejiye pesh hai wohi geet.

-------------------------------------------------
Song: ab na zabaan pe taale Daalo (Dharti Ke Lal)
-------------------------------------------------

1946 ke baad unhone kai saalon tak filmon mein geet naheen likhe,
lekin unki pragatisheel saahityik rachnaaen prakaashit hoti rahi.
1948 aur 1978 ke beech Ali Sardar Jafri ke 8 kavitaa sangrah
praakaashit huye, jinme shaamil hain Nai Duniya Ko Salaam, Khoon Ki
Lakeer, Amn Ka Sitara, Asia Jaag Utha, Patthar Ki Deewar, Ek Khwab
Aur, Pairahan-i-Sharar, Lahu Pukarta Hai, Awadh ki khak-i-haseen,
Subhe Farda, Mera Safar aur aaKhir mein Sarhad. isi Sarhad ko lekar
pradhaanmantri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Lahore gaye the apni sadbhaavna
yaatra par. baharhaal, bataur filmi geetkaar Ali Sardar Jafri
waapas aaye san 1952 mein. is saal unhone ek saath 3 filmon mein
geet likhe. yeh filmen theen - Anhoni, Zalzala, aur Annadata. Anhoni
aur Zalzala filmon ke gaane to aap sun chuke hain. leiin badkismati
se film Annadata ka koi bhi geet ham khoj kar naheen laa paaye jise
Ali Sardar Jafri ne likha ho. isliye yahaan par ham aapko ek aur
geet sunwa rahe hain.

--------------------------------------
Song: kaisa jaadoo Daala re (Footpath)
--------------------------------------

Asha Bhosle ki aawaaz mein yeh tha Footpath film ka naGhmaa. doston,
san 1953 mein Ranjit Movietone ke 'banner' tale Zia Sarhadi ne
banaaee Dilip Kumar aur Meena Kumari abhineet Footpath. isi film
mein sangeetkaar Khayyam ko apna pehla baDaa 'break' mila tha. isse
pehle Sharmaji ke naam se unhone Parda aur Biwi jaisi filmon mein
sangeet diya tha. Khair, aaj ham baat kar rahe hain Ali Sardar Jafri
ki. to unhone is film Footpath mein ek baDaa hi maqbool geet likha
tha. Talat Mahmood ki aawaaz mein yeh ek aisa geet hai jiska shumaar
Talat saahab ke sabse behetareen dard bhare naGhmon mein hota hai.
Talat Mahmood ki maKhmalee aawaaz, Khayyam saahab ka taazaa sangeet
aur Sardar Jafri saahab ke asardaar bolon ne is geet ki lokapriyataa
ki bulandiyon tak pahunchaaya. is geet ko sunne se pehle ham aapko
yeh bhi bataa den ki Khayyam saahab ne is geet mein Dholak aur table
ka istemaal naheen kiya, balki Spanish Guitar aur Double Bass ke
saath Violins aur Trumpets ke mishraN se adbhut 'orchestration' ka
samaa baandhaa hai. to sunte hain "sham-e-Gham ki qasam aaj Ghamgeen
hain ham".

san 1954 mein Ali Sardar Jafri ne film Dhobi Doctor mein geet likhe.
is film ka nirmaaN bhi Ranjit ke 'banner' huya aur isey nirdeshit
kiya Phani Mazumdar ne. Kishore Kumar aur Usha Kiran ne is film mein
abhinay kiya tha aur Khayaam the sangeetkaar. Kishore Kumar ki
aawaaz mein is film ka ek geet yahaan pesh hai jise, uplabdh
jaankaari ke anusaar Majrooh Sultanpuri aur Ali Sardar Jafri dono ne
milkar likhe the.

doston, is waqt aapne 'tune' kiya hai VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare, aur
hamaare aaj ke sitaare hain mashoor shaayar aur thoDe se kamcharchit
geetkaar Ali Sardar Jafri.

----------------------------------------------------

iske agle saal, yaani 1955 mein Phani Mazumdar ke hi nirdeshan mein
Jafri saahab ne sangeetkaar Anil Biswas ke liye geet likha tha. Anil
Biswas aur Sardar Jafri ki joDee ne Faraar mein to zyaada naam
naheen kamaaya lekin san 1957 ki film Pardesi mein inki yeh joDee
rang laayi. film Pardesi Naya Sansar ke 'banner' tale K A Abbas ne
banaaee jo pehli Indo-Russian co-production thi. Nargis aur Balranj
Sahni abhineet is film ke geeton ki visheshta yeh thi ki is film ke
kai geet do geetkaaron ne milkar likhe. inmein se ek to Ali Sardar
Jafri saahab the aur doosre geetkaar the Prem Dhawan. to leejiye
yahaan par film Pardesi ka ek geet suniye jise in dono geetkaaron ne
saath milkar likha tha. Lata Mangeshkar ki aawaaz mein shaastriyata
ka rang liye yeh madhur geet pesh hai.

Song: na dir dir ta na dir na (Pardesi)

"raat Khoobsoorat hai neend kyun naheen aati, din ki Khashmagi
nazren kho gayi siyaahi mein, aahni kaDon ka shot beDiyon ki
jhankaaren, qaidiyon ki saanson ki tund-tez aawaazen, jailaron ki
badkaari, gaaliyon ki bauchhaaren, bebasi ki Khaamoshi, Khaamoshi ki
faryaaden, tahnasheen andhere mein". doston, apne qaidi jeevan ko hi
yaad karte huye shaayad Jafri saahab ne yeh panktiyaan likhe honge.
Jafri saahab par Mohd Iqbal ki shaayari ka asar tha. woh hamesha se
hi samaaj ke shosheet varg ke logon ki zubaan ban jaya karte the.
jais aki hamne pehli hi bataaya hai ki jang-e-aazaadi ke dauraan
angrezon ke Khilaaf aawaaz uThaane ki vajah se unhe 'jail' bhi jaana
paDaa. Sardar Jafri un shaayaron mein se naheen the jo keval
rumaaniyat aur Khwaabon Khayaalon ki duniya mein rehte hon, balki
unke kalam ne hamesha hi samaaj mein chal rahi buraaiyon par zordaar
vaar kiya hai. samaaj ke haalaat aur aaj ki samasyaaon par unki
nazren rehti theen. 1957 mein Pardesi mein sangeet dene ke baad
unhone kisi film ke liye phir geet likha 1963 mein. film thi Shahar
Aur Sapna. yeh bhi Naya Sansar ki 'banner' par K A Abas ki film thi.
J P Kaushik ka sangeet tha aur Ali Sardar Jafri ne is film mein yeh
geet likha tha...

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Song: hazaar ghar hazaar dar yeh sab hain ajnabi (Shahar Aur Sapna)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Shahar Aur Sapna film ne kai puraskaar jeete, jinmen us saal ka
SarvashreshTh film ka raashTriya puraskaar bhi shaamil tha. is film
ke baad 1964 mein Ali Sardar Jafri ne Hamara Ghar film mein geet
likhe. phir ek baar unka aur K A Abbas ka saath huya is film mein.
is film ka koi geet to hamaare paas uplabdh naheen hai doston, to
kyun na yahaan par ham Ali Sardar Jafri ka likha huya koi Gair filmi
Ghazal hi sun len. doston, ek 'album' bani thi Pyar Ka Pehla Khat.
Ghazlon ke is 'album' mein Jagjit Singh ne sangeet diya tha.
isi 'album' se pesh-e-Khidmat hai Ali Sardar Jafri ka kalaam,
gulukaar hain Jaswant Singh.

1965 ki ek charchit film thi Aasman Mahal. yeh film bhi Khwaja Ahmed
Abbas ki film thi aur iske kahaanikaar the Inder Raj Anand.
Prithviraj Kapoor, Dilip Roy, Surekha aur Nana Palsikar is film ke
mukhya kalaakaar the aur is film mein J P Kaushik ka sangeet tha.
Mahendra Kapoor ki aawaaz mein Ali Sardar Jafri ki yeh rachnaa pesh
hai isi film se.

Song: Khoobsoorat hai teri tarah shikaayat teri (Aasman Mahal) ------
--------------------------------------------------------

Aasman Mahal ke baad Jafri saahab ne filmon ke liye geet likhna band
kar diya. kareeb 15 saalon ke baad 1980 mein ek film aayi Naxalites
jisme unhone phir ek baar geet likhe. Jafri saahab ko bhaarat
sarkaar ki or se Nehru Fellowship se nawaazaa gaya tha jiske tahat
woh Urdu shaayari mein istemaal honewale shabdon ka ek sangrah
tayyaar kar rahe the. apne jeevan ke antim paDaav par aakar woh apni
aatmakathaa bhi likhna chaahte the, lekin niyati ne unhe yeh mauka
naheen diya. 86 varsh ki aayu mein 1 August 2000 ko lambi beemaaree
ke baad Mumbai mein unka inteqaal ho gaya. Ali Sardar Jafri zinda
hain aur hamesah zinda rahenge apne sashakt vichaardhaara ke bal
par. unke kalam se nikla huya ek ek shabd anmol hai, jo nayi peeDhee
ke liye utna hi saarthak hai jitna unke zamaane mein the.

Song: tum naheen aaye (Nonfilm Ghazal - Jagjit Singh)

aaj VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare mein hamne salaam kiya Ali Sardar Jafri
ko. agle hafte ek aur sitaare ki roshni jhimilaaegi is kaaryakram
mein, tab tak ke liye alvidaa. jaate jaate Ali Sardar Jafri ke kalam
se nikle chand alfaaz pesh hai...

"mera safar, phir ek din aisa aayega,
aankhon ke deeye bujh jaayenge,
haathon ke kanval kumbhlaayenge,
aur barg-e-zabaan se nataq-va-sadaa ki har titli uD jaayegi,
is kaali samundar ki tah mein,
kaliyon ki tarah se khilti huyi,
phoolon ki tarah se hansti huyi,
saari shaklen kho jaayengi.

main sotaa hoon aur jaagtaa hoon,
aur jaag ke phir so jaata hoon,
sadiyon ka puraana khel hoon main,
main mar ke amar ho jaata hoon"

Interview:

PART 1
------

JR: Juthika Roy
KS: Kamal Sharma

KS: Juthika Roy-ji, aapka is kaaryakram mein bahut bahut swaagat
hai, namaskaar!

JR: aaj to bahut hi aanand ka din hai, bahut baras pehle main
aakaashvaaNi mein aayi thi, aaj phir se Vividh Bharati mein aa rahi
hoon

KS: bahut bahut swaagat hai aapka hamaare is kaaryakram mein

JR: 'thank you'

KS: aur yeh hamaare liye bhi aetihaasik pal hai, Vividh BHarati ke
shrotaaon ke liye bhi, mere liye bhi, aur haamaare poore parivaar ke
liye bhi, ke aap hamaare is kaaryakram mein padhaareen hain aur aap
se baatchit karne ka mauka mila hai. kyunki baat 'radio' ki hai
aur 'radio' ke 'studio' mein aap aayeen hain aur aakaashvaaNi ka ek
mahatwapoorNa, lokapriya 'channel' hai Vividh Bharati, mujhe jahaan
tak maaloom hai, aur bahut se shrotaaon ko bhi maaloom hoga, kuchh
log shaayad yeh naheen jaante honge ki aapke gaayan ki shuruwaat ek
to bachpan se huyi aur 'radio' se huyi. to kitni baras ki theen aap
jab pehli baar 'radio' par gaana gaaya?

JR: main jab 7 baras ki thi, us waqt main 'radio' par pehli dafe
gaayi hoon. mere pitaaji ka bahut hi shauk tha ki main chhoTi umra
se hi 'radio' par 'gramophone' mein gaana karoon. isliye jab main 7
baras ki huyi to pitaaji mujhe 'radio' par le aaye aur 'audition'
diya maine, aur 'pass' ho gayi, aur ek din ke baad hi
hamko 'contract' mil gaya. pehle meri 5 'minute' ka 'contract' tha
aur usmein mera ek gaana tha. to main Rabindra Sangeet gaayi
thi, "aar rekho naa aandhaare aamaay, dekhte daao".

KS: kya baat hai, aapko abhi bhi yaad hai aapne kya gaaya tha!

JR: haan thoDaa thoDaa yaad hai.

KS: jee jee, lekin aise naheen, aap gaake hamein bataaiye kaun si
rachnaa thi woh.

JR: main to gaa rahi hoon, abhi dekhiye

-------------------------------------------------------
Song: aar rekho na aandhaare aamaay (Live in VB Studio)
-------------------------------------------------------

KS: kya baat hai! 81 yaa 82 saal pehle aap ne yeh gaaya hogaa,
aur 'radio' par main samajhta hoon ki yeh 1927 ke aaspaas ka gaana
hogaa. tab aakaashvaaNi ki shuruwaat hi huyi thi

JR: jee, ekdam shuruwaat mein

KS: aapko kuchh yaad hai kaun kaun log the us waqt aap ke 'audition'
mein, koi diggaj hasti?

JR: naheen, ek ghaTanaa hai jo bahut achchhi tarah abhi tak mujhe
yaad hai. main jab gaane lagi to udhar koi 'instrument' naheen tha,
khaali kyunki ekdam shuru ke samay mein main gayi thi, koi yantra
yaa koi 'accompany', hamaare saath naheen bajaaye. maine bilkul
khaali gale se yeh gaana gaayi.

KS: akele, yaani aapke saath sangat koi naheen tha

JR: naheen, peTee bhi naheen

KS: peTee matlab 'harmonium' bhi naheen

JR: gaaya maine, 'broadcast' huya, sabhi ne sunaa. lekin main naheen
sun paayi, meri to bahut ichchha huyi ki kaise main yeh sunoongi,
kisi ke paas se main jaan sakoongi ki mera gaana kaisa huya, sabko
kaisa lagaa, yahi chinta lekar main ghar waapas aayi. waapas aane ke
baad maine dekhaa ki saare khaDe hain, kisi ke chehre par aanand
naheen hai, sabhi niraash bankar khaDe hain. to maine poochha
ki 'mera gaana kaisa lagaa?', pehle ko poochha, unhone aahiste
aahiste bolaa ki 'didi, maine to sirf do 'line' suna hai', to phir
maine doosre ko poochha ki 'aapko kaisa lagaa?', to bole ki 'didi,
main kaan mein dene ke baad...', us waqt 'radio' mein 'headphone'
hota tha, koi 'sound box' naheen hota tha, isliye kaan mein lagaakar
sunna paDta tha, to bolaa 'dekhiye didi, ek 'line' sunne se pehle hi
kisi ne mere kaan se le liya, main baraabar sun naheen paaya ki
kaisa huya'. to teesre ko maine poochha ki 'kaisa lagaa?', to boli
ki 'dekhiye bahut der tak main apekshaa karte karte jab kaan mein le
liya to peechhe se kaun chho maarke aise le liya'

KS: 'headphone' chheen liya

JR: 'ek 'word' bhi naheen sunaa'. to main shesh jo wahaan pe khada
tha usse poochha ki 'bataaiye na kaisa laga mera gaana, mujhe bahut
ichchha hai ki mujhe pataa chale ki kaisa huya gaana', to woh bole
ki 'Renu, jab tak maine kaan mein liya to kaaryakram samaapti ki
ghoshNaa chal rahi thi. woh to naaraaz ho gaya (laughs), to yeh
ghaTanaa mujhe abhi tak yaad hai. us waqt isi tarah ham log sunte
the. sab log ek do 'line' sunte the, saunne ke liye sab log khaDe
rehte the lekin sabko thoDa thoDa sunne ko milta tha.

KS: achchha, abhi aap ne bataaya ki kisi ne aapko kahaa 'Renu', to
kya Renu aap ke ghar ka naam tha?

JR: jee

KS: aur waise Juthika

JR: jee

KS: achchha, to kyunki aapne pehli rachnaa Bangla mein gaayi aur woh
Rabindra Sangeet tha, ghar mein aapke sangeet ka maahaul tha? aapke
pitaaji yaa maa sangeet mein ruchi rakhte the? kisne sikhaaya aapko?
kahaan se sanskaar mile iske aapko?

JR: mere ghar mein sangeet to sab koi pasand karte the, sunte the,
mere pitaaji ke pitaaji the Priyanath Roy, mere pitaaji
Satyendranath Roy, aur mere kaakaaji, maataaji, sabhi ko gaane ka
bahut shauk tha. lekin woh zamaana aisa tha ki koi laDkee to gaana
naheen gaa sakti thi. hamaare desh mein Shenghati mein ham rehte
the, to udhar to gaana naheen gaa sakte the, baahar to naheen gaa
sakte the, lekin ghar mein hamaare pitaaji sikhaate the. 'office' se
waapas aane ke baad hamein saath mein lekar baiThte the, sunaate
the. aur 'records', us zamaane ke jo sab baDe baDe shilpi the, woh
pitaaji le aate the aur bajaate the, aur un 'records' se hamein
gaana sikhaate the. K C Dey, Kanan Bala, Indu Bala, aur bhi bahut
achchhe achchhe gaane hamko sikhaate the. isi tarah ham chalte the,
lekin baahar jaakar gaana naheen ho sakta tha. meri maa
bahut 'fight' karti thi ki 'kyun naheen jaatengi? baahar naheen
jaayegi, paDhaai naheen karegi, gaana naheen gaayegi, to kaise
chalegaa?' maataaji ne bahut 'fight' karke ham logon ko 'school'
mein bhejaa, gaana bhi sikhaaya, sab kuchh maataaji ne kiya

KS: matlab maataaji bahut hi pragatisheel vichaaron ki theen aur us
daur mein jab samaaj mein is tarah ka nazariya naheen tha laDkiyon
ke baare mein, woh sochti theen ki laDkiyon ko bhi is tarah ka mauka
mile.

JR: jee

KS: aur aapke pitaaji bhi, hamein maaloom hai ki Education Inspector
the.

JR: 'yes'

KS: to unka bhi baDaa yogdaan raha aapko paDhaane likhaane mein, hai
na?

JR: haan, pitaaji ka aisa maanna tha ki samaaj mein koi golmaal
hogaa, log naaraaz honge, ismein naheen jaana, chup raho, is tarah
ka. lekin maataaji ka aisa naheen tha. samaaj mein golmaal hoga to
baad mein Theek ho jaayegaa. pitaaji naa naheen karte the lekin
waise bhi naheen the.

KS: maa Dhaal banke khaDi theen

JR: haan, maataaji ne sab kuchh kiya, hamko 'school' bhi bhejaa
aur 'master' bhi rakhaa paDhne ke liye. hamne 'instruments' bhi
seekhaa, Violin, esraaj, dilrubaa

KS: kya baat hai. violin seekhee aapne aur esraaj bhi seekhaa, aur
gaayan to chal hi raha tha

JR: gaayan ke liye hamaare udhar achchha 'master' naheen milta tha.
hamaara jo zilaa tha Khulna, wahaan pe ek 'school' tha,
Shantiniketan se koi Subodh Mazumdar karke, unhone Shantiniketan se
Rabindranath ke gaane sab seekhkar hamaare Khulna mein 'school'
banaaya. usmein unhone chhoTe chhoTe laDkiyon ke 'groups' banaakar
seekhaate the. maine bhi usmein bhaag liya.

KS: didi, main bhi aapke baaton mein beh gaya aur bhool hi gaya, ab
shrotaa bhi mujhse naaraaz honge ki itni baDi gaayika hamaare
is 'programme' mein aayi hain, aur main na unse gawaa raha hoon aur
na unka koi gaana sunwa raha hoon, to pehla gaana jo aapka tha woh
Bangla mein tha, uske baad aap ne Hindi ka ek bhajan gaaya tha, 12
saal ki umra mein, is samay ham apne 'programme' mein, ham aur
baaten karenge, uska silsilaa aage baDhaayenge, ek gaana 'gramophone
record' se kyun na bajaayen! yaa us zamaane ka koi film jo aapko
bahut pasand aayi ho, yaa koi kalaakaar jiski aawaaz aapko bahut
pasand ho, kyaa aap aisa koi gaana sunwaana chaahengi?

JR: bahut achchha lagegaa aapko sunwaane mein

KS: kiski aawaaz aapko bahut achchhi lagti thi us zamaane mein?

JR: hamko to K C Dey, Pankaj Mullick, phir Sachin Dev Burman, Lata
ka gaana bhi bahut achchha lagta hai

KS: K C Dey yaa Pankaj Mullick, aap ke bahaane aur bhi jo log hain,
unki yaaden taazaa ho jaayengi, woh bhi us zamaane mein chale
jaayenge, K C Dey ka koi gaana sunwaa den?

JR: jee haan, bahut achchha hogaa

KS: aaiye sunte hain

--------------------------------------------------
Song: teri gaThari mein laagaa chor (Dhoop Chhaon)
--------------------------------------------------

KS: K C Dey saahab, jo Manna Dey saahab ke chaachaa hain

JR: jee. K C Dey aur main jab 'recording' karti thi, K C Dey bhi
kabhi kabhi hamaare 'recording' mein aate the, aur main bhi
unko 'recording' karte huye dekhti thi. unke saath ek dafe maine
Allahabad mein 'recording' kiya, to ek hi 'hotel' mein ham log the.
ek 'room' mein K C Dey the aur ek 'room' mein main aur mere pitaaji
the. aur K C Dey ke saath shaayad Manna saahab bhi the. lekin main
dopahar mein khaana khaake jab so gayi to aisa lagaa ki koi gaa raha
hai zor se, oochi aawaaz mein. main to uTh gayi yeh dekhne ke liye
ki itni dhoop mein dopahar ko kaun gaa raha hai aise! main uThke
dekhee ki hamaare nazdik mein jo K C Dey reh rahe the to wohi riyaaz
kar rahe the. hamko ekdam aisa lagaa ki ham sote hain, khaana khaake
itna aaraam karte hain, aur K C Dey itni umar hone ke baad bhi aise
dopahar ko riyaaz karte hain. hamko bahut achchha lagaa kyunki yeh
bhi ek shiksha hai.

KS: aapko prerNaa mili

JR: yeh bhi ek preraNaa hai

KS: chaahe ham K C Dey saahab ki baat karen yaa unke samkaaleenon
ki, bahut saare diggaj naam hamaare zahan mein aate hain, yaad aane
lagte hain. unke alaawaa aur kaun kaun sangeet marmagya, sangeet
kalaakaar hain jinke sampark mein aapko aane ka mauka mila?

JR: dekhiye mere guruji jo hain, main 'classical' seekhti thi, woh
the Bhishshadeb Chattopadhyay, 'classical' gaate the, lekin itna
achchha, itna meeThaa 'classical' maine kabhi naheen sunaa. 1930
saal mein ham log sab Kalkatta mein aa gaye the. kyunki gaaon mein
to paDhaai likhaai, gaana seekhna kuchh naheen ho sakta tha, isliye
maataaji boli ki 'ham Kalkatta mein rahenge'. ham maataaji ke saath
Kalkatta mein rehne lage to kisi paDosi ne aakar maataaji ko bolaa
ki 'agar Renu ko gaana seekhaana hai to Bhishshadeb Chattopadhyay se
seekhaayo, Bhishshadeb kitna achchha kitna 'classic' gaate hain
aapko maaloom naheen hai'. hamaari maataaji ko bolaa ki 'aaj ham
Renu ko saath mein leke jaayenge, Bhishshadeb ka ek 'programme' ho
raha hai'. maataaji ne bolaa ki 'Theek hai, isko leke jaayo'. to us
anushThaan mein main gayi, bahut se shilpi aaye, ek ke baad ek hote
hote Bhishshdeb ka naam ghoshit huya. Bhishshadeb aaye, unka gaana
suna, aur ekdam paagal ban gaye. unse gaana seekhna hi
paDegaa, 'classical' to ham kuchh naheen jaante hain. to waapas
aakar maataaji ko bolaa ki 'hamko to unse seekhna hi paDegaa, naheen
to dil naheen bharegaa'. maataaji bolee ki 'dekhte hain, khabar
karna paDegaa, main to kisi ko jaanti naheen, woh kahaan rehte hain,
kitne paise lenge', to eeshwar ki bahut kripaa hai ki Bhishshadeb ke
koi jaane pehchaane hain jo hamein bhi pehchaante hain...

KS: unke koi parichit jo aapke bhi parichit hain

JR: jee haan, to unhone aake bola ki 'Bhishshadeb ne bola ki Renu ko
milne se ham ekdam apne man se shishya banaayenge'. to yeh mauka,
maataaji ne kahaa ki 'Renu ko to bahut ichchha hai', to main phir
unke paas seekhne gayi, aur 9-10 baras tak.

KS: kya baat hai! aur jo kuchh aapne seekha, aapke sangeet mein,
aapki madhur aawaaz mein nazar aata hai, aur aapke aawaaz ki bahut
der se prateekshaa mein, hamaare shrotaa intezaar mein hain ki aapka
gaaya huya koi geet woh sune, to bataaiye ki kaun sa gaana sunwaana
chaahengi aap apni aawaaz mein, apne pasand ka, hamaare shrotaaon ko?

JR: aap 'record' bajaayenge?

KS: 'record' bajaayenge

JR: to bajaaiye "mose kahaa na jaaye kahaa na jaaye"

----------------------------------------------------------------
Song: mose kahaa na jaaye manamohan ke gungaare (Nonfilm Bhajan)
----------------------------------------------------------------

KS: achchha yahaan par bhajan jo hai, kyunki Hindi bhajan ki ham
shuruwaat kar rahe hain aapki aawaaz mein, to uski ek jhalak jo hai,
bahut lamba na ho, ek jhalak sunwaa deejiye na!

JR: yeh Meera ka bhajan hai, aur sur diya hai Kamal Dasgupta ne, aur
maine gaaya tha, (sings) "pag ghungroo baandh meera naachee re..."

----------------------------------------------
Song: pag ghungroo baandh meera (Meera Bhajan)
----------------------------------------------

KS: sangeet ke kshetra mein, kyunki aap ne Meera ke bahut saare
bhajan gaaye, to log aap ko Meera hi kehne lag gaye the. yeh hamne
suna hai (laughs), kitni sachchaai hai is baat mein?

JR: (laughs) main to aashcharya ho jaati hoon ki log Meera kaise
bolte hain! lekin ek dafe Hyderabad mein mera Sarojini Naidu ke
saath mulaaqaat huyi

KS: kya baat hai

JR: woh aayi theen mera gaana sunne ke liye, mujhe dekhne ke liye

KS: Sarojini Naidu

JR: Sarojini Naidu, aur unko main bahut pyaar karti hoon, bahut
shraddha karti hoon. lekin main kabhi yeh naheen sochaa ki woh mere
paas aayengi, hamaare paas aakar boleen ki 'didi, aap ne Mahatma
Gandhiji ko dekhaa?' maine kahaa ki 'naheen, abhi tak hamaara yeh
saubhaagya naheen huya', ham to bas 'paper' mein paDhte hain ki woh
kya kya kaam karte hain hamaare desh ke liye. bolee 'aap jaanti hain
aapka gaana kitna pasand karte hain?' maine bola ki 'naheen, mujhe
maaloom naheen hai, mujhe kaise maaloom paDegaa!' boleen ki 'unko
aapka gaana bahut pasand hai, har roz woh aapke 'records' bajaate
hain, aur jab praarthana mein baiThte hain, praarthana mein jaate
hain to pehle aapka Meerabai ka yeh bhajan bajaate hain, phir
praarthana shuru karte hain. to meri ek bahut hi ichchha hai ki aap
mahatmaji ke saath zaroor darshan karna, woh gaana sunna chaahen to
ekdam saamne se unko gaana sunaana, yeh main aapko bolti hoon'. main
yeh khabar to unke paas se sunaa, main pehle to naheen jaanti thi,
lekin main bahut koshish karne lagi ki Bapuji ke saath ham mulaaqaat
karen, unke darshan karen, unko praNaam karen, lekin woh samay bahut
kharaab samay tha, swaadheenta ke liye bahut kaam the, idhar udhar
ghoomte the, aur hamaare Kalkatta mein bhi 'riots' lag gaya, sab
jalne lagaa chaaron taraf. un waqt 1946 mein 'riots' shuru ho gaya.
hamne sunaa ki Bapu Kalkatta mein aaye hain, aur Beleghata mein,
bahut door hai hamaare ghar se, to wahaan pe 3 din Thehrenge, lekin
bahut 'busy' hain, kisi ke saath mulaaqaat naheen ka sakte. maine,
maataaji aur pitaaji ne sochaa ki jaise bhi hamein unka darshan
karna hi paDegaa.

KS: kaise bhi ho jaaye lekin unke darshan karne hi paDenge?

JR: aur unke saamne naheen jaa sakenge, unko gaana naheen sunaa
sakenge, usmein koi baat naheen hai, lekin door se unke ham darshan
karenge saamne se. aur ek saath ham log sab bhaai bahen, maataaji,
pitaaji, kaakaa, bahut baDaa ek 'group' banaake, ham logon ne dekha
ki kaise woh 'morning walk' karte the, 'morning walk' karenge to ham
raaste ke upar unko praNaam karenge.

KS: jab woh subah ki sair ko niklenge to hamein mauka mil jaayegaa

JR: haan. aise sab baatchit karke ham nikle. wahaan pahunche to
dekha ki jahaan par Bapuji rehte hain woh bahut baDaa makaan hai,
uske saamne ek bahut baDaa 'gate' hai aur 'gate' ke saamne taalaa
lagaa huya hai. wahaan ek darwaan baiTha tha to hamne poochha
ki 'kya huya, taalaa kyun lagaa hai, Bapuji 'morning walk' mein gaye
kya?', to woh bola ki 'naheen, unka 'morning walk' ho gaya, abhi
aaraam kar rahe hain, isliye taalaa lagaa huya hai'. hamko bahut
buraa lagaa ki 'time' to chalaa gaya

KS: maayoosi ho gayi

JR: mere kaakaaji ne 'gate-keeper' ko kahaa ki 'dekho, ham log bahut
door se aa rahe hain, 'gate' ko khol do, ham thoDaa 'hall' mein
baiThenge'. bolaa 'naheen naheen, mujhe hukum naheen hai, aap to
naheen jaa sakte, aap idhar hi khaDe rehna'. bahut kaDee dhoop thi
udhar, ham sab dhoop mein khaDe the, hamaare peechhe peechhe aur bhi
bahut se log aa gaye. ham sab saath mein khaDe rahe. achaanak kaisa
huya ki, woh sharat kaal tha, ismein aisa hota hai ki abhi kaDee
dhoop hai aur abhi achaanak barsaat ho jaati hai, to ekdam se kaale
baadal aake barsaat shuru ho gayi, aur ham bheegne lage.

KS: dopahar thi aur achaanak kaali ghaTaaen aakar barasne lagi

JR: haan. hamaare kaakaaji ko to bahut gussa aa gaya. mujhe bahut
pyaar karte hain, 'Renu bheeg rahi hai', unhone ekdam se darwaan ko
jaakar kahaa ki 'dekho, Bapuji ko jaakar kaho ki Juthika Roy aayi
hai unke darshan ke liye, andar jaayo aur unko yeh bataa do'.
darwaan to chalaa gaya, baad mein kya dekhte hain ki andar se Manav
Gandhi aur doosre sab 'volunteers' aa rahe hain nikal ke. chhaata
lekar sab dauD dauD ke aa rahe hain. ham andar gaye, 'hall' mein sab
baiThe. 'towels' lekar aaye kyunki ham sab bheeg gaye the. thoDi der
baar Abha Gandhi, Abha Gandhi Bengali hai, Kanu Gandhi ke saath
unhone shaadi kiya tha. woh aashram mein rehti theen. to Abha aakar
mujhko bolee ki 'didi, aap aur maataaji andar aaiye, Bapuji aapko
bulaaye hain, aur kisi ko naheen'. Bapuji ek dafe uThkar 'hall' mein
ek chakkar deke, sabko darshan deke andar chale gaye aur hamko aur
maataaji ko andar leke gaye. hamko andar leke gaye, bapuji ek chhoTe
se aasan par baiThe hain, khaali badab, kuchh naheen pehne hain, aur
aankhon mein bahut moTe kaanch ka chashma hai. usmein se usi tarah
hamko dekhne lage aur hasne lage. Abhaji ne kahaa ki 'aaj Bapuji ka
maun-vrat hai aur woh aaj naheen bolenge', to bhi Theek hai, saamne
to aa gaya Bapuji ke. Bapuji ko hamne praNaam kiya, unhone dono
haath mere sar pe rakhkar bahut aashirvaad kiya. phir woh likhne
lage, likh likh kar woh Abha ko dete the aur woh paDhkar hamko
bataate the.

KS: kya likha tha unhone?

JR: likha ki 'ham to abhi bahut 'busy' hain, hamaare paas to 'time'
naheen hai, hamein 'time' se sab kam karna paDta hai, ham abhi
doosre kamre mein jaakar thoDaa kaam karenge, aap yaheen se khaali
gale se bhajan gaaiye'. main to chaunk gayi, peTee veTee kuchh
naheen laayi, ham to khaali darshan ke liye aa gaye the. to ek ke
baad ek unke jo unke 'favourite' bhajan unhone bol diya, main gaati
chali gayi, jaise "main to raam naam ki chooDiyaan pehnoon",
aur "ghunghaT ke paT kholoon", "tujhe piya milenge", "main vaari
jaayun raam".

KS: aisa tha ki Bapu ke aashram mein to koi peTee naheen thi, koi
sangatkaar naheen the, yahaan peTee hai, to wahaan jo bhajan aap ne
Bapu ko sunaaye the, unmein se ek bhajan kam se kam yahaan sunaa
deejiye.

JR: main gaayungi. to us din wahaan par aadhe ghanTe tak main gaayi
ek ek karke. uske Bapuji phir hamaare kamre mein aa gaye, phir gaana
band karke unko praNaam kiya, to phir se hamaare sar pe haath rakhke
bahut aashirvaad diya, aur phir Abha ko likhkar bataaya ki 'aaj mera
Maidaan mein...', Kalkatta ka Maidaan kitna baDaa hai aapko shaayad
maaloom hoga, 'wahaan par hamaara anushThaan hogaa, shaantivaaNi jo
ham prachaar karenge, udhar sab log aayenge, udhar Juthika bhi
hamaare saath jaayengi'

KS: kya baat hai!

JR: Juthika gaayegi bhajan aur main shaantivaaNi doonga, aur raam
dhun hoga aur yeh hoga woh hoga

KS: satya ke us pujaari se, shaanti ke us doot se jo aapki bhenT
huyi thi uski chamak main aaj bhi aapke chehre par taazaa dekhta
hoon. aap bataa rahi hain aur waisi hi pulak, bachchon jaisi waisi
Khushi aap ke chehre par nazar aa rahi hai, aisa lag raha hai ki aap
ko woh sparsh mehsoos ho raha hai taazaa.

JR: jee haan, mera jeevan dhanya ho gaya

KS: kya umra rahi hogi, 20-25 saal rahi hogi?

JR: 1946 mein woh hamko mile, aur phir kabhi naheen mile.

KS: to chaliye ab ek bhajan jo aa ne us din Bapu ko sunaaye the,
unmein se koi ek bhajan...

JR: Bapuji ko jo sunaaye hain...

------------------------------------------------------
Song: mat jaa mat jaa mat jaa jogi (Live at VB Studio)
------------------------------------------------------

KS: yeh bhajan aur aise kai bhajan aap ne Bapu ko sunaaye. Bapu ko
poori duniya, woh ek shanti ke maseehe ke roop mein saamne aaye aur
saath hi saath hamari aazaadi ki ek aise sipaahi the jinhone bina
rakt bahaaye logon ko sangharsh ke liye is tarah se prerit kiya,
wohi usko taaqaat banaaya, sachchaai ko, himaat ko, aur unhi ke
shishyon mein se ek the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru jo hamaare desh ke
pratham pradhaanmantri bhi bane. aur jaisa ki mujhe maaloom hai,
suna hai maine ki aazaadi jab hamein mili aur Pandit Nehru Lal Qile
par jhanDaa phehraane waale the to aap ka gaayan chal raha
tah 'radio station' par. aur sunne mein aaya ki jab aapka gaana 15-
20 'minute' aap ne gaa lee to uske baad mein sandeshaa aaya, aapka
gaana ruk gaya tha, Khatam ho gaya tha, phir se sandeshaa aaya
ki 'naheen, main Lal Qile par jhanDaa phehraane jaa raha hoon, aur
unse kahiye ki woh gaana gaati rahen'. is ghaTanaa ke baare mein ham
jaanna chaahte hain, kya thi yeh asli ghaTanaa aur main kitna sahee
hoon.

JR: jee. yeh hai 15th August, 'first' swaadheentaa divas ka. aur
Delhi Radio se hamein 'contract' aaye ki 'aap swaadheentaa divas par
bhajan gaayenge'. to main udhar gayi, us waqt bhi 'live broadcast'
hota tha, teen 'sitting' mila tha, ek subah 6 baje, uske baad 9-10
aisa, aur ek akdam 'last' ka. to subah ka 'programme' karke jab
main 'studio' se nikal paDee to mere saath pitaaji the. to
koi 'officer' dauD ke aake mere pitaaji ko bolaa 'aap log abhi mat
jaana, mujhe Teenmurty House se, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru ke paas se
ek 'phone' aaya hai ki anditji abhi 'procession' leke Lal Qila mein
jaa rahe hain, uske baad British jhanDe ko utaarnaa aur uske baad
hamaare jaatiya jhanDe ko upar phehraana, yeh samay tak Juthika-ji
ko bhajan gaane ke liye bolo'. bhajan aise naheen bolaa, jo bhi ho
gaana woh chalta rahegaa. to iske liye to tayyaar hoke naheen gayi,
to main 'nervous' ho gayi. to us aadmi ne kahaa ki 'didi, aap jaldi
jaldi 'studio' mein jaaiye'. maine kahaa ki 'main kya gaayungi?'. to
usne kahaa ki 'aapko jo marzee aap gaaiye, aapko gaana aa jaayega'.

KS: to phir bhajan gaaya yaa deshbhakti geet?

JR: naheen, pehle maine yeh gaaya...

--------------------------------------------------
Song: sone ka hindustaan meraa (Live at VB Studio)
--------------------------------------------------

KS: kya baat hai, kya baat hai

JR: shuru isse kiya, lekin baad mein bhajan gaaya.

KS: "sone ka hindustaan mera", yeh jo raashTriya geet aap ne gaaya,
iske rachaita ka naam aapko yaad hai?

JR: yeh Pandit Madhur ka likha hai

KS: Pandit Madhur jinhone bahut se geet likhe, filmon mein bhi

JR: Lucknow mein rehte hain

KS: abhi hain woh Lucknow mein?

JR: abhi hain, lekin bahut dino se...

KS: sampark naheen huya

JR: haan

KS: do mahaan hastiyon ka aap ne zikr kiya, ek to Mahatma Gandhi aur
ek Pandit Nehru

JR: Pandit nehru jab pradhaanmantri bane to har saal hamko isi
tarah 'contract' aate the 'radio' se. aur Gandhiji ke janamdin par
to hamko jaana hi paDta tha.

KS: Pandit-ji se aamne saamne aapki mulaaqaat huyi hai?

JR: haan, unhone hamko bulaaye hain unke ghar pe, gaana bhi sune
hain paas mein biThaakar, do ghanTe ke liye mujhse sab bhajan sune.

KS: yeh to bahut baDaa saubhaagya hai

JR: aur yeh Sarojini Naidu, har baras jab main Hyderabad jaati thi
to dekhti thi ki woh sabse saamne baiThi hain. aur kehti thi 'yeh
gaana gaana Juthikadi', "mohe chaakar raakho jee" (laughs). sab
gaana unko yaad rehta tha.

KS: woh aapko bahut pyaar karti theen

JR: bahut pyaar karti thi

KS: ek aur, bahut baDi hasti, saahitya ke jagat ke, Qazi Nazrul
Islam.

JR: haan

KS: unko aap Qazi-da bolti theen?

JR: haan, unko ham Qazi-da bolti thi aur Qazi saahab bolte the kabhi
kabhi.

KS: unke baare mein zaroor jaanna chaahoonga, koi sansmaraN aadi.

JR: unke liye to mere paas bolne ke liye bahut kuchh hai. main jab
pehle Kalkatte mein aayi to pitaaji mujhe sikhaate the, lekin unke
dil mein bahut tha ki bahut choTe umar mein mera 'record' ban jaaye,
7 baras mein 'record' ban jaaye. to 7 baras mein 'company' mein
gaye  to 'company' ne bola ki 'abhi bahut chhoTa hai, abhi naheen
hogaa', to isliye ham log phir aakaashvaaNi mein gaye. to Kalkatta
aane ke baad mein Gyanranjan Sengupta, pitaaji ke ek 'relative' the,
unke paas main 'classical' seekhne ke liye jaati thi aur kyunki ham
Kalkatte mein aur kisi ko jaante naheen the, isliye unke paas main
seekhne lagi. woh bahut achchha Khayaal gaate the, aur Nazrul ke
gaane bhi, jo bahut bhaari bhaari hain, woh sab bhi achchha gaate
the. aur aawaaz bhi bahut achcha tha, bahut meeThaa aur saaf. to
pitaaji ne kahaa ki 'abhi inse seekho, baad mein jo ustaad tumko
achchha lagegaa woh ham Theek kar denge'. isliye ham Baranagar mein
jaate the aur udhar ham seekhte the. pitaaji mere saath jaate the,
har ravivaar unke ghar mein. ek din baat karte karte Gyan baabu ne
pitaaji ko bolaa ki 'dekhiye Satyen baabu, hamaare saath Qazi Nazrul
Islam ka bahut 'friendship' hai, woh hamaara 'friend' hai, ham jo
bolega woh karega, abhi aapko maaloom naheen hai Qazi saahab
Gramophone Company ke sarve-sarvaa hain, sabse baDe 'post' mein hai,
woh gaane bhi likhta hai, sur bhi deta hai, seekhaate bhi hain, sab
kuchh Qazi Nazrul ke upar hai', to pitaaji ne yeh mauka liya
(laughs), dekha ki Qazi Nazrul to iske dost hain...

KS: baat ban jaayegi

JR: haan, to yeh mauka to woh naheen chhoDenge. to bole ki 'Gyan
baabu, aap Renu ka gaana unko sunaa deejiye 'reord' karwaane ke
liye, Renu to 3 baras aapke paas seekha'. to ek din jab ham Gyanji
ke ghar mein gaye to dekha ki Qazi Nazrul aake baiThe hain. ekdam
geruyaabasant ka rang hai, lambe lambe baal hain, baDi baDi aankhen,
naak, dekhne mein bahut sundar hain, aur bahut zor se hanste the.
jab hanste the to sab kaamp uThtaa tha.

KS: nishchhal hansi khikhilaakar

JR: ekdam khule man se hanste the, aakaash baataash bhar jaate the.
woh bahut paan khaate the, unke saamne ek Dabba rehta tha aur usmein
woh peek phenkte the (Both laughs). 'recording' jab hota tha tab bhi
woh ghoomte ghoomte aise peek phenkte the.

KS: peekdaan tha

JR: to Gyan baabu ne unko bola ki 'yeh Renu hai, aap inka gaana sun
leejiye'. to bole ki 'zaroor sunenge'. unka dil bahut achchha tha.
to hamaara gaana sunaa, sunke bole ki 'haan, bahut achchha
hai, 'recording' ke liye 'permission' ho gaya hamaara, 'approve' ho
gaya' (both laughs). to agle baras se hamaara 'record' shuru ho
gaya. Kamal Dasgupta naye aaye the, naye 'trainer' aaye the, Pranab
Roy Bangla ke the, tab wahaan Hindi ka koi 'department' naheen tha.
jo 'recording' hota tha sab Bangla. baad mein huya tha
Hindi 'department'.

CHHAYA GEET - GUZRE ZAMAANE KE ANMOL NAGHMEN
--------------------------------------------

Presenter: Yunus Khan
---------------------

Chhaya Geet ke sunnewaalon ko Yunus Khan ka namaskaar! Chhaya Geet
ke is mehfil mein jab kabhi bhi meri aur aapki mulaaqat hoti hai to
main aapke liye lekar aata hoon guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmen. aur
aaj guzre zamaane ke kuchh aise naGhmen hain jinki aamtaur par
filmon mein gunjaaish naheen hoti, jaise ki moTar ke bigaD jaane ka
naGhmaa. agar aap soch rahe honge ki moTar ke bigaD jaane ka naGhmaa
Hindi filmon mein kab aur kahaan aaya tha to is paheli ka jawaab
main aap ko de doon ki san 1952 mein Nagristan ke 'banner' tale
ek 'picture' aayi thi Motimahal. Hansraj Behl ne is film mein
sangeet diya tha, Prem Dhawan ke bol the, Suraiyya ne is film ka yeh
gaana gaaya tha jo bigDi huyi moTar ke ban jaane ki baat karta hai.
aaiye bigDi huyi moTar ka yeh gaana sunte hain jo Hindi filmon ke
itihaas ka ek bahut hi ajeeb-o-Gareeb geet hai. yeh is maamle mein
bhi anooThaa hai ki is mizaaj ke Suraiyya ne zyaada naGhmen naheen
gaaye.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Song: kabhi na bigDe kisi ki moTarrr rrraste mein (Motimahal)
-------------------------------------------------------------

bigDi huyi moTar na naGhmaa aapne sunaa, Suraiyya ki aawaaz thi,
film thi Motimahal, san 1952, aur 'banner' tha Nagristaan. aaiye ab
zaraa 20-25 sal aage ki taraf aate hain. san 1977, film Shankar
Hussain. aur jab ham film Shankar Hussain ki baat karte hain to
aapko do gaane yaad aate hain, ek to "kahin ek maasoom naazuk si
laDki" aur doosra gaana jo aapko yaad aata hai woh hai "apne aap
raaton mein". yeh dono Mohd Rafi ke bahut hi naazuk tareen gaano
mein se hain, lekin isi film mein ek gaana aisa tha jo bahut zyaada
naheen chalaa, jiski bahut zyaada charcha naheen huyi, jo 'radio'
par yaa kahin aur aapko bahut zyaada sunaaee naheen detaa. Aziz
Nazan aur Babban Khan ki aawaazen, Kafi Azmi ke bol, Khaiyyam ki
tarz, aur yeh Shankar Hussain film ki ek baDi anooThi qawwaali.
aapko yeh bataa den ki yeh film 1977 mein Great Ganges ke 'banner'
tale aayi thi.

-----------------------------------------------
Song: achchha unhe dekhaa hai (Shankar Hussain)
-----------------------------------------------

guzre zamaane ke anmol naGHmon ke is shringkhalaa mein aapka yeh
dost Yunus Khan aapko kuchh anooThe gaane sunwaa raha hai. anooThe
is sandarbh mein hai ki in gaano ke vishay bilkul alag hain, aur in
gaano ka jo 'sound' hai, jo dhwani hai, woh bhi apne aap mein
niraale hain. duniya ko ek saath milkar badal dene ki baat ham sabhi
karte hain. ham sabhi kehte hain ki 'aayo bhai, is duniya ko ham sab
milkar badal Daalen aur jo kuchh Galat hai usey sahi karen'. lekin
yahi baat agar kisi gaane mein bahut achchhi tarah se kahee jaaye to
kya kaisa lage! Naqsh Lyallpuri ne 1974 mein film Ek Hans Ka Joda ke
liye yeh gaana likha tha. Jaidev ne iski tarz banaaee thi, Asha
Bhosle aur saathiyon ki aawaazen, yeh geet film sangeet ki duniya ek
anooTha aur aashaavaadi geet hai.

-------------------------------------------------
Song: aa jaayo ke milkar badlen (Ek Hans Ka Joda)
-------------------------------------------------

aajkal bahut baDi taadaad mein Bhojpuri filmen ban rahi hain. lekin
Bhojpuri filmon ka itihaas baDaa puraana hai. ek zamaane mein Hindi
film jagat ki bahut mashoor hastiyaan Bhojpuri cinema ke juDi rahi
hain. aaiye san 1963 ki or chalen jab Shakti Films ke 'banner' tale
film aayi thi Aayil Basant Bahaar. aapko hairat hogi ki is film ka
sangeet Hemant Kumar Mukherjee ne diya tha. maine sunaa hai ki
Hemant Kumar ka taalluKh Banaras se raha tha, isliye wahaan ki boli
aur lok sangeet se unka achchha Khaasaa vaasta raha hai. yeh jo geet
main aapke liye lekar aaya hoon isey Ram Murty Chaturvedi ne likha,
aawaaz to Asha Bhosle ki hai lekin gaane ke shuru mein kuchh
panktiyaan aapko Hemant Kumar ki aawaaz mein sunaaee degi. film
Aayil Basant Bahaar ka yeh Bhojpuri geet aapki nazar.

------------------------------------------------------------
Song: kaagaa re uDi jaa re des begaane (Aayil Basant Bahaar)
------------------------------------------------------------

doston, ek gaana yaad aa gaya ki "saawan aaye yaa na aaye jiya jab
jhoome saawan hai". ab aap soch rahe honge ki jab yeh gaana yaad
aaya hai to main aapko yahi gaana sunwaayunga. lekin itni seedhee
saadee baat kee jaaye to mazaa naheen aata na! darasal saawan ki
yaad aati hai to is gaane ki yaad aati hai, aur aaj Chhaya Geet mein
saawan ki yaad dilaane ke liye aur woh bhi is mausam mein, maine ek
gaana chunaa hai. san 1961 mein aayi film Pyar Ki Pyas ka yeh gaana,
Lata Mangeshkar aur Talat Mahmood ki aawaazon mein. Bharat Vyas ke
bol, Vasant Desai ki tarz hai. yeh apni naazukee, yeh gaana apni
dhun, aur apni gaayikee, sabhi mein anooThaa aur niraala hai.

-------------------------------------------
Song: saawan ke jhoole paDe (Pyar Ki Pyaas)
-------------------------------------------

guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmon ki is shringkhalaa mein aapka yeh
dost satat khoj ke baad kuchh aise gaane lekar aata hai jo bahut
zyaada sunaaee naheen dete yaa kahin samay ke pravaah mein kho se
gaye hain, bhaTak se gaye hain. san 1961 mein aTkaa huya hai yeh
gaana jo Pyase Panchhi film ka hai. yeh aTkaa huya hai us samay se
jab yeh aaya tha. beech mein kabhi kabhi kisi kisi ko is gaane ki
yaad aa jaati hai, kabhi bhoole bhaTke yaa kisi 'radio station' se
yeh gaana baj jaata hai, Qamar Jalalabadi ke bol, Kalyanji Anandji
ki tarz, aaiye Mukesh ka yeh bahut hi Khoobsoorat aur Khushnaseeb
naGhmaa suniye.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Song: baDaa Khushnaseeb hai jise tu naseeb hai (Pyase Panchhi)
--------------------------------------------------------------

aaj ke Chhaya Geet mein maine aapko kuchh anooThe geet sunaaye. agli
baar jab mulaaqaat hogi to kuchh aise hi aur gaane lekar aayunga,
tab tak chalta hoon kyunki abhi mujhe khojne hain aur bhi guzre
zamaane ke anmol naGhmen, namaste Yunus Khan ki or se.

Year of Birth: 1915

Death: 25-01-1991

Adi Narayan Rao, despite being a music director from South India
(Tamil MD to be more specific) had done amazing work. He composed
songs based in Hindustani classical music which had mixed raags.

Adi Narayan Rao's first film came in 1946. When he earned a name in
Tamil film industry he started a production company called `Anjali
Pictures' for which he himself gave music. The film's heroine was
Anjali Devi, a famous cine-star in Tamil and his wife too. Film was
an average one but one song from the film `Kuhu Kuhu Bhole Koyaliya'

This particular song was made up of Sohni, Bahar, Jaunpuri and Yaman
raags.

Adi Narayan Rao gave music for 6 Hindi films in all. There was
another notable film for which he scored music namely `Phoolon Ki
Sej'. The Manna Dey-Lata Mangeshkar duet from the film, even though
popular among listeners, never touched the heights of `Kuhu Kuhu
Bhole Koyaliya'.

There was a Marathi film `Mahabhakt Tukaram' for which he composed
music and it starred Anjali Devi.

There were four more films in the 70s for which he composed music but
that were not worth mentioning.

haardik swaagat hai. phir ek baar ham ru-ba-ru hain, phir ek baar
kisi kamcharchit fankaar ki daastaan lekar, koi aisa fankaar jinki
yaadon par shaayad waqt ka dhool chaDh chuka hai. yeh shringkhlaaa ek
prayaas hai aise hi fankaaron ki yaadon par jame dhool ki parat ko
saaf kar unhe ek baar phir se tar-o-taazaa karne ka. is prayaas mein
ab tak hamne aap ka parichay jin sangeetkaaron se karwaaya hai, woh
hain Ninu Mazumdar, Gyan Dutt aur Jamal Sen. hamne keval
sangeetkaaron ka hi naam isliye liya kyunki aaj ke is kaaryakram mein
bhi ham ek bhoole bisre sangeetkaar ki sangeet rachnaaen pesh karne
jaa rahe hain. isse pehle ki ham unka naam aapko bataayen zaraa
suniye yeh geet aur andaazaa lagaaiye ki kaun hain yeh sangeetkaar jo
bane hain aaj ke VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare!

-------------------------------------------
Song: more naina saawan bhaadon (Vidyapati)
-------------------------------------------

kuchh yaad aaya doston ki is geet ko sangeetbaddha kisne kiya tha?
shaayad haan, shaayad naa! to chaliye ham hi Khulaasaa keeye dete
hain. film Vidyapati ke is geet ko likha tha Prahlad Sharma ne, gaaya
tha Lata Mangeshkar ne, aur is geet ke sangeetkaar, yaani ki hamaare
aaj ke VBLC Sangeet ke Sitaare hain V Balsara.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: mera pyaar mujhe lauTaa do (Talat Mahmood - Nonfilm)
----------------------------------------------------------

Talat Mahmood ki aawaaz mein yeh tha V Balsara ka swarbaddha kiya
huya ek Gair filmi rachnaa. doston, in dono geeton ko sunkar aapko
zaroor yeh andaazaa ho gaya hoga ki V Balsara kis star ke fankaar
the. aise hi na jaane aur kitni filmi aur Gair filmi geeton ko apni
dilkash dhuno mein baandhaa hai inhone. is kaaryakram mein aapko aise
hi kuchh aur behad sureele aur meeThe geeton ko sunne ka mauka
milegaa aaj. isse pehle ki aap aglaa gaana sune, ham aapko yeh bataa
den ki V Balsara ka poora naam tha Vistasp Ardashir Balsara, yaani ki
V A Balsara. filmon mein woh jaane gaye V Balsara ke naam se. unse
juDee aur bhi kai tathya hain aap ke saath baanTne ke liye, lekin
usse pehle ek geet sun liya jaaye. yeh hai Mukesh ki aawaaz mein ek
Gair filmi rachnaa.

------------------------------------------------
Song: rooThee huyi taqdeer ko (Mukesh - Nonfilm)
------------------------------------------------

V Balsara ka janm 22 June 1922 ko Bambai ke ek paarsi parivaar mein
huya tha. kareeb kareeb 1938 ke aaspaas, yaani ki 16 varsh ki aayu
mein unhone 'piano' mein itni achchhi dakshataa haasil kar lee thi ki
filmon mein bataur 'piano'-vaadak unka aagaman ho gaya. unke film
sangeet safar ko mukhyatah do bhaagon mein baanTaa jaa sakta hai. ek
bataur sahaayak yaa saazinde, aur doosra bataur swatantra
sangeetkaar. bataur 'piano'-vaadak film sangeet sansaar mein pravesh
karne ke baad agle kai saalon tak unhone us zamaane ke, yaani ki 30
aur 40 ke dashakon ke kai diggaj sangeetkaaron ke saath kaam kiya.
inmein shaamil the Ustad Jhande Khan, Mushtaq Hussain, K Datta, Rafiq
Ghaznavi, Mir Saheb, M A Rauf, Khan Mastana, Master Ghulam Haider aur
Anil Biswas. agli peeDhee ke sangeetkaar, jaise ki Naushad, C
Ramchandra, Vasant Desai aur Shankar Jaikishan jaise sangeetkaaron ke
saath bhi V Balsara ne kaam kiya aur sangeet srijan mein apna
mahatwapoorNa yogdaan diya.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: birhan baiThee aas lagaaye (Talat Mahmood - Nonfilm)
----------------------------------------------------------

jahaan tak swatantra roop se sangeet dene ka sawaal hai, V Balsara ne
pehli baar san 1943 mein Zahoor Raja dwaara nirmit aur nirdeshit film
Mazaak mein sangeet diya tha. lekin film ke parde par Zahoor Raja ka
hi naam dikhaaya gaya bataur sangeetkaar. is film mein mukhya
bhumikaaon mein the Pahari Sanyal aur Madhuri. isi saal V Balsara ne
sangeetkaar Vasant Kumar ke saath milkar Bharat Productions
ke 'banner' tale bani film Circus Girl mein sangeet diya. Brijrani
aur Babulal Pahelwan abhineet yeh film ek 'stunt' film thi aur aisi
filmon ke sangeet ka kya hashr hota hai yeh shaayad aapko pataa hai.
iske agle saal, yaani ki 1944 mein V Balsara ko Zahoor Raja ne ek
baar phir se aamantrit kiya apni agli film O Panchhi mein sangeet
dene ke liye. is baar V Balsara ne akele hi film ka sangeet nirdeshan
kiya aur unka naam parde par bhi aaya. swayam Zahoor Raja aur Radha
Rani abhineet is film ke gaane to mere paas naheen hai aapko sunwaane
ke liye, par yahaan par main aapko Geeta Dutt ki aawaaz mein ek bahut
hi pyaara sa Gair filmi geet zaroor sunwaa sakta hoon.

------------------------------------------------
Song: yeh hawaa yeh fizaa (Geeta Dutt - Nonfilm)
------------------------------------------------

1944 ke baad to jaise V Balsara swatantra sangeet nirdeshan se Gaayab
hi ho gaye. yeh sach hai ki 1946 ki film Jeena Seekho mein
unhone 'background music score' kiya tha, lekin is film ke
sangeetkaar the Hanuman Prasad. 1944 ke kareeb 10 saal baad, san 1953
mein unhone ek baar phir se sangeet nirdeshan ki baagDor apne haathon
mein lee aur nirdeshan kiya Sweet Pictures ke 'banner' tale bani film
Madmast ka. Jagdish Pant dwaara nirdeshit is film ke mukhya kalaakaar
the A N Ansari, Shashi Kala, Nirupa Roy aur Shakeela.

-------------------------------------------
Song: kisi ke zulm ki tasveer hai (Madmast)
-------------------------------------------

Dhan Indorewala aur Mahendra Kapoor ki aawaaz mein aapne sunaa
Madmast film ka yugal geet. Madmast se juDee ek baat yahaan par kehna
zaroori hai ki isi film mein V Balsara ne pehli baar Mahendra Kapoor
ko bataur paarshwa gaayak gaane ka mauka diya tha. suniye isi baat ka
zikr Khud Mahendra Kapoor ki bolti huyi aawaaz mein. yeh baaten
unhone Vividh Bharati ke Ujaale Unki Yaadon Ke kaaryakram ke dauraan
kahee thi:

Mahendra Kapoor speaks: "I was a hardcore fan of Mohd Rafi and was
singing his songs in those initial days till my mother informed me
that Dhan Indorewala, the daughter of her Parsi friend, who stays
close to our house, is going to sing in films and so I should also
try for it. Getting curious about it, I went to meet Dhan and got to
know about V.Balsara who was staying near the Parsi Dairy Farm
nearby. I met Balsara and told him about my interest in music. I sang
a Rafi number and Balsara got interested in me and gave me the
opportunity to sing for his Orchestra in Saturday Night Club party.
And after sometime, Balsara gave me the good news that I was going to
sing in his film Madmast. Madmast had my first original solo song and
a duet with Batish which was a qawwali."

to doston, yahaan par ho jaaye wohi qawwaali jise Mahendra Kapoor ne
Batish ke saath milkar gaaya tha?

---------------------------------------
Song: unhe dekhen to woh munh (Madmast)
---------------------------------------

doston, is waqt aap hain VBLC Sangeet Ke Sitaare ke saath, aur aaj ke
is kaaryakram mein jis sangeetkaar ke sangeet ki kirNen bikher rahi
hai, woh hain V Balsara.

---------------------------------------------
Song: kab beet gayi jeevan ki subah (Madmast)
---------------------------------------------

1953 mein Madmast ke baad 1956 mein Children's Films Society dwaara
nirmit bachchon ki film Char Dost mein V Balsara ka sangeet ek baar
phir goonjaa. is film ka nirdeshan kiya tha jaane-maane nirdeshak
Nitin Bose ne. 60 ke dashak mein V Balsara ne kul 3 filmon mein
sangeet diya tha. yeh filmen hain 1964 ki Vidyapati, 1967 mein Wohi
Ladki, aur 1969 mein Pyar. Vidyapati ke gaane kaafi lokapriya huye
the. is film ka sabse 'hit' geet hamne aapko kaaryakram ki shuruwaat
mein hi sunwaa diya tha. kyunki yeh geet V Balsara ke filmi 'career'
ka sabse lokapriya geet raha hai, isliye is geet ka ek ansh yahaan
par ham phir se prastut kar rahe hain.

-------------------------------------------
Clip: more naina saawan bhaadon (Vidyapati)
-------------------------------------------

doston, film sangeet ke itihaas mein kai geet aise hain jo inke
rachnakaar ki pehchaan ban jaate hain. Lata Mangeshkar ki aawaaz mein
Vidyapati film ka yeh gaana bhi V Balsara ka pehchaan banaa.
Vidyapati film ke gaane likhe the geetkaar Prahlad Sharma ne. doston,
samay samay par hamaare filmi geetkaar aur sangeetkaaron ne kuchh
aise aise Khoobsoorat bhajan hamein deeye hain ki jinhe sunkar jaise
saakshaat bhagwaan ke darshan ko jaate hain, aatma pavitra ho jaati
hai. film Vidyapati mein bhi ek aisi hi bhajan ki rachanaa kee thi
Prahlad Sharma aur V Balsara ne. Mohd Rafi ki aawaaz mein zaraa is
bhajan ko suniye aur paawan ho jaaiye.

------------------------------------------
Song: mose rooTh gayo banwaari (Vidyapati)
------------------------------------------

doston, jaisa ki hamne aapko bataaya ki V Balsara ne 1969 mein film
Pyar mein sangeet diya tha. phir 10 saal tak unhone kisi Hindi film
mein sangeet naheen diya. 10 saal ke baad, yaani san 1979 mein V
Balsara ne dhaarmik film Jai Baba Baidyanath mein sangeet diya tha,
aur yahi unke sangeet se sajee aaKhri pradarshit Hindi film thi.
Hindi ke alaawaa V Balsara ne 25 Bangla, 2 Nepali, aur 4 Oriya filmon
mein bhi sangeet diya tha. bataur sangeet sanyojak, yaani ki
bataur 'music arranger', V Balsara ne mukhya roop se Hemant Kumar aur
Nachiketa Ghosh ke saath kaam kiya. unke sangeet mein Gair filmi geet
bhi kai bane jinmein se kuchh gaane hamne aapko isi kaaryakram mein
sunwaaye hain. chaliye ek aur Gair filmi rachna prastut hai Mukesh ki
aawaaz mein.

------------------------------------
Song: aabaad raho (Mukesh - Nonfilm)
------------------------------------

'Instrumental music' mein V Balsara ka yogdaan ullekhniya raha hai.
unhone do saazon ka Khud ijaad bhi kiya tha. yeh saaz hain Univax aur
Melodika. unki isi saazon ki dakshataa ne unhe Mumbai film industry
mein lokapriya banaaya, aur baad mein woh Kalkatta chale gaye, aur
wahaan par Bangla sangeet mein apna amoolya yogdaan diya.
doston, V Balsara par kendrit koi bhi kaaryakram unke
bajaaye 'instrumental' ke baGair adhoora sa hai. isliye yahaan par
ham aapko sunwaa rahe hain V Balsara ka bajaaya huya Raag Mishra
Pilu.

--------------------------------------------------
Piece: Raag Mishra Pilu (Instrumental - V Balsara)
--------------------------------------------------

is 'piece' ko sunkar aapko andaaza ho gaya hogaa V Balsara ke saaz
bajaane ki dakshataa ka. sach bhi yahi hai ki unhe bataur Hindi film
sangeetkaar jitni shohrat mili hai, usse kai gunaa zyaada woh jaane
jaate hain ek behetareen saazinde ke roop mein. unhone lokapriya
geeton ke behetareen 'instrumental versions' banaaye hain jo sunne
mein utne hi achchhe lagte hain jitne ki woh gaane. aur V Balsara ke
swarbaddha Gair filmi geeton ke bhi kya kehne! Geeta Dutt ki aawaaz
mein ek aur aisi ki Gair filmi misaal yahaan par pesh hai.

-------------------------------------------------
Song: gaayen gaayen gaayen (Geeta Dutt - Nonfilm)
-------------------------------------------------

V Balsara ko sangeet ke kshetra mein saraahaniya yogdaan ke liye kai
puraskaaron se nawaaza gaya hai. inmein shaamil hain 1990 mein Rajya
Sangeet Natak Academy ka Allauddin puraskaar, 1995 mein Sangeet Natak
Academy puraskaar, aur Vishwa Bharati ki taraf se 'deshikottam'
Khitaab. inke alaawaa bhi kai aur puraskaar inhe praapt huye hain. V
Balsara ne sangeet shikshaa par kai kitaaben bhi likhi hain aur in
sangeet paaThon ke 'audio cassettes' bhi nikaale hain. unhe Iraq,
Iran, Egypt, Soviet Union, Britain, America, aur Japan jaise deshon
mein 'cultural delegate' bankar jaane ka sammaan bhi praapt huya hai.
83 varsh ki aayu mein 24 March 2005 ko Kalkatta mein unka dehaavasaan
ho gaya. V Balsara ke sangeet ki mahak, unke bajaaye dhuno ka ras,
aur unke dwaara sikhaaye sangeet ke paaTh sirf bangaal mein hi naheen
balki poore desh mein bahut hi aadar aur sammaan ke saath yaad rakhaa
jaayegaa.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: yeh raat suhaani hai mohabbat ki karo baat (Madmast)
----------------------------------------------------------

to doston, yeh thi sangeetkaar V Balsara ki kuchh baaten aur unke
sangeetbaddha keeye huye chand filmi aur Gair filmi rachnaayen.
chalte chalte ham aapko yeh bhi bataa den ki is kaaryakram mein dee
gayi kuchh jaankaariyaan hamne 'internet' se praapt kee, aur kuchh
April 2005 mein prakaashit Listeners' Bulletin se praapt kee jiske
sampaadak hain Har Mandir Singh Hamraaz. to aaj bas itna hi, agle
hafte ek aur kamcharchit fankaar ki sur yaatra ke saath phir se
haazir ho jaayenge, tab tak ke liye ijaazat deejiye, namaskaar!

CHHAYA GEET - GUZRE ZAMAANE KE ANMOL NAGHMEN
--------------------------------------------

Presenter: Yunus Khan
---------------------

Chhaya Geet ke sunnewaalon ko Yunus Khan ka namaskaar! Chhaya Geet ke
is prasaaraN mein jab bhi meri aur aapki mulaaqaat hoti hai, to main
aap ke liye lekar aata hoon guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmon. yeh woh
naGhmen hain jo hamaare man ki waadiyon mein goonj rahe hain lekin
aur kahin se sunaaee naheen dete. inmein se kuchh naGhmen aap ne
bahut kam sune honge. kuchh gaane ansune bhi honge, aur yahi to is
chhaaya geet ke silsile ki visheshta hai. aaiye ek aise gaane ki
charcha karen jo bahut barson se sunaaee naheen diya. Amarjyoti film
ka yeh geet Bharat Vyas ne likha hai, aur yeh gaana kisi bhi
saahityik kavitaa se kamtar naheen hai. kuchh filmi geet kavitaa ki
oonchaaee tak pahunch jaate hain, aur phir itne lalit ban jaate hain
ki hamaare man ko ek ajeeb si prasannata se bhar dete hain. yeh gaana
unhi gaano mein se ek hai. sangeetkaar Vasant Desai, ek baar phir
bataa den san 1965 ki film Amarjyoti.

-----------------------------------------------
Song: kalpana ke ghan barasti (Amarjyoti, 1965)
-----------------------------------------------

"kalpana ke ghan barasti geet geele ho rahe, bhaav rimjhim paD rahe
hain swar raseele ho rahe", Lata Mangeshkar aur Mahendra Kapoor ke
gaaye is gaane mein ek shaastriyata thi, ek laalitya tha, aur in dono
cheezon ne aapke man ko Khushi se bhar diya hoga. aaiye ab zara uttar
bhaarat ki or chalte hain. jee haan, main aapko ek bhojpuri film ka
geet sunwaane jaa raha hoon. yeh film san 1963 mein aayi thi, Shakti
Films ke 'banner' tale. film ka naam Aayi Basant Bahaar. Manna Dey ne
is film mein ek vidaai geet gaaya tha, jo bahut hi vikal aur aansuyon
se bheega vidaai geet hai. Ram Murty Chaturvedi ne ise likha,
sangeetkaar Hemant Kumar. is gaane ko sunkar aapki aankhen bhi nam ho
jaayengi.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: phulwa kahi jhulwa jhulan (Aayi Basant Bahaar, 1963)
----------------------------------------------------------

is vidaai geet ke baad aaiye ab san 1960 ki or chalte hain. film aayi
thi Rangila Raja. is film ke sangeetkaar the Shivram, jinhone bahut
zyaada sangeet naheen diya. lekin kuchh anmol gaane Shivram ke nam
hai. yeh gaana Talat Mahmood aur Sudha Malhotra ki aawaazon mein hai.
ek bahut hi Khaamosh, pyaar bhara aur anooThaa gaana. sawaal yeh hai
ki yeh gaana itna zyaada lokpriya kyun naheen huya, waqt ki dhund
mein kyun kho gaya?

-----------------------------------------------------
Song: ham tumhaare ho chuke hain (Rangila Raja, 1960)
-----------------------------------------------------

Chhaya Geet mein guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmen aap sun rahe hain
apne dost Yunus Khan ke sang. kya aap ne Khoon Ka Khoon film ka naam
suna hai? S H Bihari ne is film ke gaane likhe the aur Usha Khanna ki
tarz thi. aur is film mein Asha Bhosle ne ek baDaa hi nasheela geet
gaaya tha. aise gaane jinke liye Asha Bhosle shuruwaat se hi mashoor
rahi hain. aaiye yeh gaana sunte hain aur guzre zamaane ki meeThi
yaadon mein kho jaayen.

-----------------------------------------------------
Song: leke dil mein pyaar aaye (Khoon Ka Khoon, 1966)
-----------------------------------------------------

sangeetkaar Dattaram ne bahut saari filmon mein sangeet naheen diya
lekin kuchh filmen unki swarbaddha hain jo baDi hi kamaal ki rahi
hain. jinmein adbhut gaane hain. jaise san 1960 mein aayi film Kala
Aadmi. is film mein Hasrat Jaipuri ne ek geet likha jise Suman
Kalyanpur ne gaaya tha. aur yeh gaana aankh milaakar vaar karne ki
baat kehta hai. zara is gaane ko suniye aur iski shoKhi mein kho
jaaiye.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: aankh milaakar vaar karoongi roko (Kala Aadmi, 1960)
----------------------------------------------------------

san 1965. Shri Pictures ke 'banner' tale film Saheli aayi thi. yeh
wohi film thi jisne sangeetkar joDee Kalyanji Anandji ke 'career' ko
kuchh aur upar pahuncha diya tha. Indeevar ne is film ke gaane likhe
the aur is film ke kuchh geet behad maqbool huye the jo aapko baar
baar sunne ko milte hain. lekin is film mein ek aisa geet tha jismein
Lataji ke aawaaz ki miThaas, zindagi ka falsafaa, aur suron ka ek
ajeeb sa maahaul hai. lekin yeh gaana hamein zyaada sunaaee naheen
detaa. isiliye aaj Chhaya Geet ki aaKhri peshkash ke roop mein Saheli
film ka yeh suniye jo kehta hai ki Khushi bhi aayi to kuchh is adaa
se aayi.

----------------------------------------------------------
Song: khushi bhi aayi to kuchh aisi adaa se (Saheli, 1965)
----------------------------------------------------------

guzre zamaane ke anmol naGhmen aap sun rahe the Chhaya Geet mein apne
dost Yunus Khan ke sang. ab deejiye ijaazat, namaskaar!

THE END

Fauji bhaiyon ko Shankar ka namaskaar. Aaj jab aapko apni pasand ke
gaane sunaane ka mauka mila hai to ek ajeeb kashmakash mein phans
gaya hoon. pichhle 25-30 saalon mein is Shankar Jaikishen ne aapki
seva mein itne saare dhune tayyaar kiye hain ki unmein se kuchh
geeton ko chunne baitha hoon to ulajh kar reh gaya hoon. kise bhool
jaayun, kise yaad rakhoon. saamne 'records' ka Dher lagaa hai. har
gaane ke saath meeThee yaadon ke sapne saje hain. aankhon ke saamne
maano beeti huye din yun ubhar rahe hain jaise koi film chal rahi ho.
pehla drishya ubharta hai jab main, Jaikishen, Shailendra, Hasrat
Jaipuri, Mukesh aur Raj Kapoor R K Studios mein baithe huye hain aur
ho rahi hai geeton ki barsaat.

Clip: Barsaat mein humse mile tum sajan (Barsat)

Barsat ke baad Awara...

Clip: Awara hoon (Awara)

Shree 420...

Clip: Ramaiya vattavaiya (Shree 420)

Aah...

Clip: Raja ki aayegi baaraat (Aah)

Boot Polish...

Clip: Hum maywaale polishwale (Boot Polish)

Sangam...

Clip: Bol Radha bol sangam hoga ke naheen (Sangam)

Kal Aaj Aur Kal...

Clip: Tik tik tik chalti jaaye ghadi (Kal Aaj Aur Kal)

Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti Hai...

Clip: Aa ab laut chalen (JDMGBH)

aur Mera Naam Joker...

Clip: E bhai zara dekh ke chalo (Mera Naam Joker)

Aur tabhi jaise film TooT jaati hai, roshni huya to dekha ki
Shailendra naheen hai, Jaikishen bhi bahut door jaa chuka hai, aur jo
reh gaye hain woh bhi begaane se lagte hain. Har ek aah par sochne pe
majboor ho jaata hoon ki...

Song: Jaane kahaan gaye woh din (Mera Naam Joker)

Jaanewaale kabhi naheen aate, aati hain to bas unki yaaden. Jaikishen
mera keval partner hi naheen tha, balki woh mera bhai mera humdum
tha. Ek doosre ke bina hum adhure the. Isiliye aaj bhi maine Jai ko
apne se alag naheen kiya. Aaj bhi divan par do harmonium rakhe huye
hain. Jab puraane saathi begaane se lagte hain, tab aisa lagta hai ki
jaise Jai keh raha ho ki Shankar bhai, himmat haarne se kaam naheen
chalega, tum hanste raho aur aage badhte raho.

Song: Zindegi ek safar hai suhana (Andaz)

Ab jo geet main aapko sunaane jaa raha hoon, woh mere pyaare dost
Shailendra ki film Teesri Kasam ka hai. Shailendra sachchi aur khari
baat kehne se darte naheen the. Geet ke bol lekar aksar hum khoob
jhagadte the par jaise hi gaana record ho gaya, phir se wahi mithaas
waapas aa jaati thee. Woh bahut hi seedhe aur sachche dil ke insaan
the, jhooth se unko nafrat thee kyunki unka vishvaas tha ki khuda ke
paas jaana hai.

Song: Sajan re jhooth mat bolo (Teesri Kasam)

Jab Barsat ka pehla gaana record karne ka waqt aaya to Raj Kapoor
sahab ne humein usey kisi bhi gaayika se gawaane ki poori chhoot de
dee. Hum sab naye the, isliye hune socha ki kisi nayee gayika se hi
kyun na gawaaya jaaye. Aur woh gaayika aaj vishva-vikhyaat ho chuki
hain. Jee haan, Lata Mangeshkar. Unki taarif karna shabdon mein
sambhav naheen, aap yeh geet suniye.

Song: Rasik balma dil kyun lagaya tose (Chori Chori)

Ab main aapko mere do mitron ki baat batata hoon. Film Do Jhooth ke
producer-director Sohanlal Kanwar aur geetkaar Vitthalbhai Patel.
Vitthalbhai kalam se hi naheen balki dil se bhi kavi hain. Doosron ke
dukh we apne upar le lete hain. Vitthalbhai Shailendra ke prashansak
hain jinki lekhni par Shailendra ka prabhaav saaf jhalakta hai. Film
Do Jhooth ke is geet ko sunkar aap meri baat maan jaayenge.

Song: Chalo bhool jaayen jahaan ko (Do Jhooth)

Ab Sohanlal Kanwar ki film Sanyasi ka ek geet aapko sunata hoon.
Sohanlal el genious film-maker hain, jo khud to achchha kaam karte hi
hain, doosron se bhi achchha kaam nikaal lete hain. Is geet ko likha
hai Vishveshvar Sharma neaur gaaya hai Lata Mangeshkar aur Mukesh ne.
Mukesh, ek aur pyaara saathi, jinka dard bhare geeton ko gaane mein
koi jod naheen. Lekin is geet mein uka rang bilkul alag hai,

Song: Chal sanyasi mandir mein (Sanyasi)

Fauji bhaiyon, apne is film jeevan mein humne na jaane kitne
sangeetkaaron ko uthte girte dekha hai. Par ek sangeetkaar aise hain
jinke gaane hamesha kaamyaab rahe hain, O P Nayyar, yeh geet suniye,
film Praan Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye.

Song: Chain se humko kabhi ek pal jeene na diya (PJPVNJ)

Yun to apni taarif sunna sabhi ko achchha lagta hai, par us waqt
khushi ka thikana naheen rehta jab koi aisa shakhs aapki taarif kar
raha ho jinke aap khud prashansak hain. Aur woh shakhs hain S D
Burman. Ek baar Russia se laukar Burman dada mujhse kehne lage ki
tumne Barsay se aisi barsaat shuru kar dee hai ki ab tak log usmein
bheeg rahe hain. Wahaan Russia gaya to sabhi taraf tumhare gaane hi
baj rahe hain. Yeh sunkar meri to khushi ka thikana naheen raha.
Aayiye Burman dada ke sangeet se sajee film Guide ka ek geet sune,
yeh hai meri or se unko shraddhanjali.

Song: Aaj phir jeene ki tamanna hai (Guide)

Samay kam hai aur baaten itni saari ki khatam hi naheen hoti. Aaj aap
se baaten karke aisa lag raha hai ki jaise poore desh se baaten kar
raha hoon. Satrangi sabhyata waale is desh ke sarhadon ki aap raksha
kar rahe hain. Hum apne gharon ke morchon par datey hain, taaki is
samaaj ko kuchh achchha de sakey. Aayiye, chalte chalte is jagruti
aur khushhaali ka swaagat karen.

Song: Honthon pe sachchaai rehti hai (JDMGBH)

THE END

pyaare fauji bhaaiyon ko, aur sunnewaalon ko Shankar ka namashkaar.
main sangeetkaar hoon aur mera kaam hai sangeet banaana. main aur
Jaikishan, ham sangeet ke baare mein jaante hain, duniya ke baare
mein to naheen jaante hain, aur yeh sangeet ke zariye hi jo bhi bolna
hai woh aapke saamne rakhte hain. aur sangeet ki zubaan hi aapko
sunaate hain.

Song: honThon pe sachchaai rehti hai (Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti Hai)

yeh aap logon ko maaloom hai, yeh Raj Kapoor saahab ke film ka gaana
hai. aap jaante hain ki gaana ek 'situation' par banta hai. aur
woh 'situation' ka gaana ek insaan ki zindagi se bhi taallukh rakhta
hai aur film ke 'situation' ke saath bhi. to yeh zaroori hai ki gaana
jo hai woh sabko pasand aaye, aur sabko samajh mein aaye, usi ko
gaana kehte hain. gaana Khaas taur par, gaane ka matlab yeh hona
chaahiye ki agar woh film ke 'situation' ke hisaab se bhi hai Theek,
to insaan ki zindagi ko bhi lag jaata hai. to ab yeh gaana aap jaante
hain ki desh bhakti ka gaana hai, jo hamaare desh mein hazaaron log
sunte hain, aur kitni bhaashaaen hain, aur har koi apni apni bhaasha
bolta hai, lekin is gaane ka matlab yahi hai ki ham ek hain, aur ham
Hindustani log kahin bhi rahen, kidhar bhi rahen, jahaan bhi rahen
lekin hamaara dil ek hai aur ek hokar chalna chaahiye, aur ek
rahenge. hamaari ektaa mein hamaara sangeet bhi hamaari madad karta
hai. aur jo sangeet sirf yaheen naheen saari duniya mein mashoor hai,
woh hai shaastriya sangeet. aur shaastriya sangeet ko log samajhte
hain bahut mushkil hai, yaa bahut kaThin hai. lekin aisa naheen hai.
woh to shaastriya sangeet to aisa hai ki jaisa banaayenge waisa banta
hai. kuchh logon ne bahut mushkil banaa diya isliye shaayad log
samajhte hain ki mushkil hai. mushkil ekdam naheen hai. ek gaana
hamne shaastriya sangeet par banaaya hai, woh ham aapko sunaana
chaahte hain.

Song: koi matwaala aaya mere dwaare (Love in Tokyo)

fauji bhaaiyon, aapko shaayad naheen maaloom hogaa yaa kisi 'paper'
mein paDhaa bhi hogaa mujhe kasrat ka bhi baDaa shauk tha. aur us
waqt main kasrat bhi karta tha, kushti bhi laDtaa tha. yeh mere
Khayaal se aapko Khushi hogi ki sangeetkaar pahelwaan bhi tha. lekin
us kushti ke saath saath maine chhoTepan se sangeet mein bhi baDi
mehnat kee hai, usmein bhi kushti kee hai maine. lekin sangeet ki
kushti aam kushti ki tarah naheen hoti hai. yeh to pyaar, mohabbat se
hoti hai. aur sangeet jo hai yeh haath aur taaqat se naheen chalti
hai. sangeet mein aap jitne pyaar se banaa sakte hain, jitna pyaar
aap de sakte hain, utna hi sangeet mein aanand aur mazaa aata hai. ab
ek gaana hamne baDe pyaar se aur baDe dil se hamne banaaya hai,
aawaaz hai Mohd Rafi saahab ki, aur film hai Basant Bahar.

Song: baDi der bhayi kab loge khabar more Raam (Basant Bahar)

filmi duniya mein hamesha se baDe baDe gaayak rahe hain, aur kuchh
chale gaye hain, aur aaj bhi baDe baDe gaayak hain. bhagwaan kare
hamesha rahen, aur naye bhi aate hain, naye naye logon ko bhi mauka
milta hai. aur ham to chaahte hain ki naye aane se unse nayi baaten
hamein bhi milti hain, nayaa kaam kar bhi sakte hain. jaise aapko
yaad hoga, kai saal pehle ham ek nayi gaayika ko laaye the. aur uska
naam hai Sharada. kai gaane uske 'popular' huye hain, aur aapko yaad
hai Sharada ka sabse pehla mashoor gaana kaun sa tha?

Song: titli uDee uD jo chalee (Suraj)

ek chhoTaa sa waaqya aapke saamne rakhta hoon. woh hai mere aziz jo
Jaikishan hain, unke baare mein kuchh baaten sunaata hoon. kya huya
ki jis waqt yeh gaana ham 'compose' karte the "mere dil kahin yun
chal", usmein baDaa mazaa aaya, to Jaikishan saahab apna baaja lekar
baiThe huye hain, keh rahe hain ki 'bhai, yeh kiska dil leke tu
chal?' maine bolaa ki 'aisi kaisi baaten kar raha hai? dil lekar to
aap hi leke jaate ho, ham to yaheen baiThe rehte hain, ab kahin
jaldibaazi mat karo kahin jaanewaane ki'. kehne lage ki 'naheen yaar
mujhe kahin jaana hai, main bahut thak gaya'. maine bola ki 'yeh
gaane ka jo kaam hai abhi tum poora 'complete' karo kyunki
hamaare 'producer' saahab, Amiya Chakraborty saahab sunne ke liye aa
rahe hain, aaj tum baiTho, usey Khatam karo, aur uske baad tum
jaana'. to kehne lage ki 'naheen yaar mera koi 'appointment' hai,
mujhe jaana zaroori hai'. to kahaa ki 'koi laDkee vaDkee hai kya?' to
bolne lagaa ki 'ismein poochhne ki kyaa zaroorat hai, yeh to samajhne
ki baat hai'. to is tareeke se ham logon ka kaam hota tha. to usmein
ek aur kya Khaas baat thi Jaikishan mein, woh rangeela raaja tha,
Khushmizaaj tha, hansta rehta tha, aur hamesha achchhe kapDe pahenna,
aur gaaDi mein baDe shaan se jaana, aur kaam ke waqt mein woh itna
sahee Dhang se kaam karta tha ki jiska koi jawaab naheen tha, lekin
is gaane mein jo usne jaadoo bhara aur jo kiya hai, jaise ham usko
lehri aur rangeela raaja kehte the, is gaane mein bhi "ae mere dil"
mein jo jaadoo bhar diya uska koi jawaab naheen hai.

Song: ae mere dil kahin aur chal (Daag)

filmi geeton mein sirf dhuno ka achchha hona, bolon ka achchha hona,
aawaaz ka ahchha hona kaafi naheen. iske alaawa 'orchestra' ki bhi
bahut zaroorat hoti hai. us 'orchestra' mein achchhe saaz, naye naye
Dhang ke saaz, aur unko istemaal karna aana bhi chaahiye aur main aur
Jaikishan, dono ko bahut shauk hai 'orchestra' ka, aur ham dono hi
sab saaz bajaate the, jaise jaikishan Accordion, Piano, Harmonium
bahut achchha bajaata tha, waise main bhi Tabla bahut Khoobsoorat
bajaata tha, aur uske alaawa Piano, Harmonium, Accordion, aur 'dance'
vagerah bhi ham jaante hain. in tamaam cheezon ki zaroorat paDti hai,
tamaam aise gaano mein, unki madad lekar gaano ko sajaate hain aur
gaano mein jo hai Khoobsoorti paida karte hain. ab main aisa ek gaana
sunaana chaahta hoon aapko jispar 'orchestra' mein hamne bahut mehnat
kee thi, aur woh 'orchestra' mein hamne kya kya bajaaya hai, kaun
kaun se 'instruments use' kee hain, woh ab main aapko naam bataata
hoon, jaise ek solobox hota hai, aur ek accordion hota hai, aur
ek 'synthesizer' hota hai, aur bhi bahut se 'instruments' hain jo
English mein aur doosra Saxophone hota hai, aur uske
baad 'drums', 'side drums', aur ponga, bonga, yeh tamaam cheezon ko
hamne usmein 'use' kiya, aur 'double base', aur do do 'double base'
ko 'use' kiya hai. aur bahut se chhoTe moTe 'instruments use' keeye
aur in tamaam cheezon se us gaane mein itni Khoobsoorti aayi hai, woh
gaana ab aapke saamne hai.

Song: aapki raay mere baare mein kya hai kahiye (Elaan)

abhi aapne baDe 'orchestra' ka mazaa liya. zaroori naheen ki har
gaane mein baDaa 'orchestra' ho. chhoTe 'orchestra' ka gaana bhi
mazaa aata hai. ab main aapko ek gaana sunaata hoon jismein Mr Robert
ne Piano bajaaya hai, usmein maine bhi unke saath Piano bajaaya hai,
aur woh gaane mein ek hi saaz hai jo sunne mein aata hai. aur us saaz
ka mazaa aapko zaroor aayega. to suniye woh gaana aur yaad keejiye
woh do dost jo hamse bichhaD gaye, Jaikishan aur Mukesh.

Song: dost dost na raha (Sangam)

fauji bhaaiyon, ab main ruKhsat chaahta hoon, ummeed hai zindagi ke
safar mein isi tarah milte rahenge. jaate hain Khudaa-haafiz bas itni
guzaarish hai, ham yaad jo aa jaayen milne ki dua karna.

Song: zindagi ek safar hai suhaana (Andaaz)

Song: tumko piya dil diya kitne naaz se (Shikari)

Shikari ke liye. aise aise kai laajawaab geeton ko apne shabdon se

zyaadaa maaloomaat haasil naheen kar paaya, haan, ek baar unka
ek 'interview' zaroor liya tha maine jismein unhone apne teen

saahab ke baDe shaayaraana aur jazbaati 'style' ke 'interview' mein.
achchha to jab maine us 'interview' mein unse darKhwaast kee ki
bataaiye kaun hain aapke teen kareebee saathi to woh bole:

*********************************
FQ: bahut teDhaa sawaal hai

AS: achchha, woh kyun bhai?

FQ: isliye kyunki mere saathiyon ko na dekha jaa sakta hai, na sunaa
jaa sakta hai, sirf aur sirf mehsoos kiya jaa sakta hai.

Ameen saahab, ab tak main ise talaash kar raha hoon

AS: o ho ho, Farooq saahab, to yeh Khuloos, yeh sachchaai ab tak
aapko mili hi naheen?

FQ: aap milne ki baat karte hain, ab tak kahin dikhaaee bhi naheen
dee.

AS: yaani ki apne aap mein bhi naheen mili?

FQ: kya bataayun, duniya se suna hai hamne yahi, ek haath se taali
bajti naheen

AS: hmmmmm, Farooq saahab, yeh duniyadaari ki baat to aap ne baDe
shaayaraana andaaz se keh Daali.

FQ: isliye ki mujhe sher kehne ka marz hai

AS: kya main yeh poochh sakta hoon ki aapko yeh marz kab lagaa?

FQ: yeh samajh leejiye ki mera mizaaj laDakpan se shaayaraaana hai

AS: achchha achchha

FQ: yaani 'school' baad mein, shaayari pehli shuru kari, isliye aaj

AS: kya baat kar rahe hain Farooq saahab, aap to bahut hi achchhe
shaayar hain aur filmon ke liye bhi aapne baDe achchhe achchhe gaane
likhe

FQ: aji Ameen saahab, jab doodh bigaDta hai to dahi banta hai aur
mere jaisa shaayar bigaDta hai to 'song writer' ban jaata hai, (AS
laughs)

AS: achchha Farooq saahab, to yeh bataaiye ki aap bigDe kaise?

FQ: baap re baap yeh mat poochhiye, Ameen saahab, aaj tak main isi
din ko filmi duniya mein DhoonD raha hoon, pataa naheen kab mile,

AS: ghabraaiye naheen Farooq saahab, ek na ek din to zaroor mil
jaayega aapko.

FQ: jee haan, main poori lagan ke saath isey DhoonD raha hoon.
*********************************

bahenon aur bhaaiyon yaad hai na aapko, lagan hi ko Qaiser saahab ne
apna doosra saathi qaraar diya tha, woh saathi to abhi aayega, tak
tak aap miliye Farooq saahab ke ek aur mashoor geet se. kya aap
jaante hain bahenon aur bhaaiyon, Laxmikant Pyarelal ki pehli film
Parasmani ke do geet Farooq Qaiser saahab hi ne likhe the, unhi mein
se ek suniye ab.

-------------------------------------------
Song: chori chori jo tumse mili (Parasmani)
-------------------------------------------

bahut dinon se aapne naheen suna tha na Faqrooq Qaiser saahab ka
likha yeh geet! to sunte jaaiye, aage chalkar aur bhi achchchhe geet
aapke saamne aanewaale hain, magar pehle mere us puraane 'interview'
se suniye Farooq Qaiser saahab ka baDaa anokha bayaan apne doosre
saathi ke baare mein, yaani lagan:

**********************************
FQ: jee haan, isne har qadam pe mera saath diya hai aur de raha hai.
isi lagan ke agan ne zindagi ke bahut se andhere ko door kar diya hai
kisi hadh tak.

AS: achchha, to duya karta hoon Farooq saahab ki hamesha aap is lagan
mein magan rahen!

FQ: jee haan, isi lagan ke sahaare chalaa jaa raha hoon, dekhen
manzil kab milti hai!

AS: lekin aapne manzil ko to chhoo liya hai Farooq saahab, aap
to 'song-writer' ban chuke hain!

FQ: lekin abhi 'director' banna baaqi hai

AS: 'director' banna chaahte hain aap?

FQ: jee haan

AS: 'very good very good', yaani manzil abhi baaqi hai

FQ: jee naheen, yeh mera aaKhri 'junction' hai

AS: Khudaa kare aap apne aaKhri 'junction' par bhi jaldi pahunch
jaayen

FQ: lekin Ameen saahab, aage bahut baDe baDe 'signal' hain, aur main
qaanoon pasand aadmi hoon aur main 'signal' toDkar aage baDhna naheen
chaahta chaahe dil hi TooT jaaye!

AS: Farooq saahab, aap to shaayar hai, agar dil TooT jaaaye to
achchha sa dard bharaa koi geet likh lenge!
*********************************

bhai, Farooq Qaiser saahab ke 'director' banne ki lagan to kabhi
poori naheen huyi, lekin geetkaar ki haisiyat se unki shohrat baDhti
hi chali gayi, baDhti hi chali gayi, aur unke geeton se shaayari ki
shaayakeen ke dil jhoomte hi rahe.

------------------------------------------------
Song: dil looTnewaale jaadugar ab maine (Madari)
------------------------------------------------

film Madari ka tha yeh geet jise Farooq Qaiser ne likha tha Kalyanji
Anandji ke dhun par. doston, Sangeet Ke Sitaaron Ki Mehfil mein aaj
do mashoor geetkaaron ka zikr hai, jinmein se ek ka is samay ham zikr
kar rahe hain, Farooq Qaiser saahab. achchha, Geet-Kosh mein maine
jab inke geet DhoonDne shuru keeye na aaj ke is 'programme' ke liye,
to pataa chalaa ki Aji Bas Shukriya se pehle bhi baDE hi pur-asar
geet likh chuke the, jaise ki 1951 mein aayi film Simba ke liye, 1953
ki film Malika Salomi ke liye, aur 1955 ki film Sakhi Lutera mein bhi
Farooq Qaiser saahab ke baDe sureele geet the saahab! Farooq Qaiser
ne to waise kai filmon mein geet likhe, lekin ek film jiske kareeb
kareeb sabhi geet behad 'hit' huye the, woh film thi Shikari, jismein
kul chaar geet Farooq Qaiser saahab ke likhe huye the. inmein se ek
geeto sun hi chuke hain aaj, baaki do ki main yahaan jhalken pesh
karta hoon aur ek geet poora pesh karoonga.

-----------------------------------------------
Song: maangee hai duyaaen hamne sanam (Shikari)
-----------------------------------------------

is geet ko Asha aur Usha ne gaaya tha, aur Shikari ke do geeton mein
Lata aur Rafi ki joDee thi.

-----------------------------------------------
Song: agar main poochhoon jawaab doge (Shikari)
-----------------------------------------------

bahenon aur bhaaiyon, main aapko bataa hi chuka hoon ki film Shikari
ke sangeetkaar the G S Kohli. agar kabhi mauka mila to un par bhi
ek 'programme' pesh karoonga. G S ohli ke sangeet mein ab Shikari ka
woh geet suniye jo aajkal ke baDi umra ke logon ne apni jawaani mein
gaaya hogaa.

-------------------------------------------------
Song: chaman ke phool bhi tujhko gulaab (Shikari)
-------------------------------------------------

aur ab us puraane sawaal aur jawaab par aa jaaiye jo mere
puraane 'interview' mein shaamil tha. sawaal mera usmein yeh tha
ki 'Farooq Qaiser saahab, aapne farmaaya tha ki aapka teesra jo
saathi hai uska naam hai hausla, to hausle ke baare mein kuchh
bataayenge aap?' aur unka jawaab tha:

****************************
FQ: Ameen saahab, yeh hausla hi hai jo insaan ko apni manzil tak
pahunchaata hai. yeh woh hausla hai jo andhere mein kirN ejagmagaata
hai. yehi woh hausla hai jo dil toDnewaale haalaat mein har shaKhs ka
saathi hai, madadgaar hai

AS: jee

FQ: aur mere is hausle ko baDhaaya hai ek shaKhs ne

AS: kaun hai woh?

FQ: woh hain mere dost, mausiqaar O P Nayyar saahab.

AS: achchha, O P Nayyar saahab?

FQ: jee haan, woh mere dost hi naheen bahut kuchh hain. main unki
baDi qadr karta hoon kyunki Ameen saahab, mujhe unse milkar zindagi
ka ek naya andaaz mila hai. Nayyar saahab ke baare mein mera Khayaan
hai ki yeh jitne achchhe sangeetkaar hain utne hi achchhe insaan bhi.

AS: Farooq saahab, aap Nayyar saahab se bahut mutaasir maaloom hote
hain

FQ: jee haan, unke saath kaam karke mujhe ruhaani sukoon milta hai,
woh geet ke har bol mein jaan Daal dete hain, aur Ameen saahab yeh
mera hi naheen, sunnewaalon ka bhi Khayaal hai.

AS: achchha Farooq saahab, ab aap O P Nayyar ka koi aisa geet bajwaa
deejiye jismein Nayyar saahab ke sangeet ka jaadoo hai.

FQ: isse pehle to main apne saathiyon ke liye apna hi geet bajaa
chuka hoon, is baar main Ahmed Wasee saahab ka geet bajaana chaahta
hoon jo unhone Pran Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye ke liye likha hai aur
uski Khoobsoorat dhun banaaee hai O P Nayyar saahab ne, suniye
****************************

------------------------------------------------------------
Song: aa ke dard jawaan hai (Pran Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye)
------------------------------------------------------------

zara dil dekhiye shaayar ka ki apne sabse kareebee dost sangeetkaar
ke liye Farooq saahab ne geet bajaaya woh jo kisi aur shaayar ka
likha huya tha, haalaanki do puraani filmon mein Farooq saahab ne
likhe the geet O P Nayyar ke liye, 1971 mein Aisa Bhi Hota Hai film
mein aur 1973 mein bani Ashok Kumar ki woh puraani film Taxi Driver
mein. woh gaane mere paas naheen hai bahenon aur bhaaiyon, warnaa
main aapko zaroor sunwaa detaa. baharhaal phir main Farooq Qaisers
saahab se us 'interview' mein kahaa ki 'ab aap O P Nayyar ke alaawaa
aur logon ke baare mein bataana chaahenge?'

*********************************
FQ: main apne un doston ke naam bhi bataana chaahta hoon jinke saath
maine kaam kiya hai. mere yeh dost do hisson mein baTe huye hain.
maine Roshan, Chitragupt, Kalyanji Anandji, Shankar Jaikishan,
Laxmikant Pyarelal, Lala Sattar, Iqbal Qureshi jaise sangeetkaaron ke
saath kaam kiya hai.

AS: haan to Farooq saahab, yeh to rahe woh log jinka taalluKh aapke
geeton ke saath raha hai, lekin aapka jo 'junction' hai 'film
direction', us 'field' mein bhi aapke bahut saare ost honge!

FQ: jee haan, zaroor zaroor, unke bhi naam bataayunga. maine Mohd
Hussain saahab ke saath kaam shuru kiya tha, phir Lekh Tandon saahab
ke saath bhi kaam kiya hai, aur aajkal Raj Khosla saahab ke saath bhi
kaam kar raha hoon. apne in doston ko yaad karte huye ek ajeeb si
qaifiyat ko mehsoos kar raha hoon. ummeed karta hoon ki mere yeh dost
kisi din mere saathi ban jaayenge.
************************************

bas ab ek aur geet aapko sunwaakar ham marhoom Farooq Qaiser ki
shaayaraana raahon ko chhoDkar muDnewaale hain aaj ke doosre shaayar
ki taraf, aur isi muDne par samajh leejiye ki Farooq Qaiser saahab ka
ek baDa hi pur-asar geet hamse yeh keh raha hai...

Hi all,

With FM stations coming up like mushrooms, the audience of shortwave
radio has dwindled over the last few years. But no one can deny the
fact that shortwave radio surfing is just like an exciting adventure.
You never know which remote station of the world you are going to be
tuned to. Below I am sharing one such experience of mine that I
encountered last night.

Last night around 11:30pm, getting bored with watching TV & the same
songs on FM, I started surfing the short wave band of my radio just
as a timepass. Suddenly I stumbled upon a station in the 41m band
that was airing some Arabic kind of song. The signal strength was too
strong. What was more surprising was that the tune of the song being
played sounded familiar to me. It didn't take me long to identify the
song. It was the same tune as the song "kaali naagin ke jaisi zulfen
teri kaali kaali" from the film Mann (Music: Sanjeev Darshan). It is
a direct lift from this Arabic or Persian song.

I got interested in that station & badly wanted to know which station
it was and which language it was. There were announcements after each
song but I could not make anything out of that. After continuous &
minute listening for 1 long hour I could make out that the announcer
was saying something like "radio faaKhdo" after regular intervals.
Immediately I searched the internet & found Radio Farda. So, this was
Radio Farda, pronounced something like 'faaKhdo'. From their website,
I came to know that its a Persian radio channel operated from Prague
& Washington. Supported by the U.S. government, Radio Farda
broadcasts political, cultural, social and art news with emphasis on
Iran (Persia). The name "Farda" means "tomorrow" in Persian. Radio
Farda's website has been blocked by Iranian government. An Iranian-
American journalist working for Radio Farda, Parnaz Azima, was banned
from leaving Iran after her trip to the country. Her passport was
later returned to her on a 550,000 U.S. Dollar bail.

So, the summary of the whole thing is that short wave radio listening
is not only an exciting experience, but it also immensely enriches
one's general knowledge. Just develop this hobby of shortwave radio
surfing & share your experiences here.

Regards,
Sujoy Chatterjee

fauji bhaaiyon ko geetkaar Sameer ka bahut bahut bahut pyaar,
namaskaar, aadaab, satsriakaal! mujhe bahut khushi ho rahi hai fauji
bhaaiyon aap logon se dubaara milke, kyunki pehle bhi main
aakaashvaaNi mein aake aap logon ka manoranjan karke jaa chuka hoon,
aur aakaashvaaNi ka main bahut shukraguzaar hoon ki inhone mujhe phir
mauka diya yahaan aane ka aur aapka dil behlaane ka. bahut saari
baaten main aap se karoonga, bahut kuchh aap se kehna hai, safar
shuru karne se pehle, shaayar ki ek 'line' mujhe bahut achchhi lagti
hai jo aap ke upar kisi ne bahut achchhi baat likhi hai, "mere geet
hain anaam, anaam shaheedon ke naam", isi se main apna safar shuru
karta hoon aur aapke dil behlaane ka yeh safar shuru karta hoon aur
yeh pehla gaana jo mere bahut saare doston ne kahaa hai ki yeh aisi
film hai jiske gaane fauj mein bahut 'popular' rahe, faujiyon ne
bahut sunaa aur saraahaa. jab bhi aap kabhi akelaa, tanhaai mein hote
the, yeh gaane aap sunte rahe. pehle bhi aap sunte the, abhi bhi aap
sunte hain, film hai Aashiqui, aur iska ek gaana, is gaane se meri
safalta shuru huyi thi, aur gaane ke bol hain "saanson ki zaroorat
hai jaise zindagi ke liye".

Song: saanson ki zaroorat hai jaise (Aashiqui)


fauji bhaaiyon, main thoDaa aap se bataana chaahoonga, thoDaa apna
parichay dena chaahoonga ki main kis shahar ka rehnewaala hoon aur
kahaan se maine apni jeevan yaatra shuru kee. main ek hindustaan ki
bahut hi pavitra dharti Kashi, jisko aap shaayad Banaras ke nam se
jaante honge, main wahaan ka rehnewaala hoon aur maine Banaras Hindu
University mein M.Com ki parikshaa 'complete' kee aur 1981 mein main
is Mumbai ki sarzameen par aa gaya aur tab se leke ab tak aapka dil
behla raha hoon, aapke pasandida gaane kuchh likhta raha hoon, aur
jab tak aap sunte rahenge, jab tak aap chaahte rahenge, main aapke
liye likhta rahoonga. magar mujhe kbhi kabhi aisa lagta hai ki ham
log jo kuchh karte hain, woh aapki tulnaa mein kuchh naheen. aap log
jo hamaare rakshak hain, jo hamaari suraksha karte hain, hamaare
baare mein apni praaNon ki bali chaDhaa dete hain aap log, aur
hamaare baare mein itna sochte hain, aur yeh mulk aur yahaan ke
rehnewaale aur tamaam log, ham apna kaam isiliye itni aazaadi se,
swatantrata se aur achchhe maahaul mein kar paate hain kyunki ham ek
baat ke liye nirbheek hote hain ki ham poori tarah se surakshit hain,
jo suraksha aapki haathon mein hai aur maine dekha hai ki kis tarah
se aap log sarhadon par tainaat hain aur jo dard, jo ghutan aap
bardaasht karte hain, jitni bhi taarif main aapki karoon, kahin na
kahin mujhe kam woh lagti hai, shabdon mein aapke baare mein naheen
kahaa jaa saktaa. mere pitaa swargeeya Anjaan-ji ne ek bahut achchhi
baat kahee thi ki "pyaar ki raah dikhaa duniya ko roke jo nafrat ki
aandhi, tum mein hi koi Gautam hogaa tum mein hi koi hogaa Gandhi".
to aise hi shaheed, aise raajnetaa, tamaam log hamaare mulk mein
paida huye aur ho rahe hain. bahut saare achchhe log aa rahe hain,
aur mujhe yaad hai ki Kavi Pradeep-ji se bhi meri mulaaqaat huyi thi
aur unhone bahut saare gaane aap ke liye likhe hain aur unke bahut
saare gaane mujhe bahut pasand hai aur maine beech mein ek film
likhee thi Shaheed Bhagat Singh jise likh ke mujhe bahut shaanti mili
thi, aur mujhe aisa lagaa ki kam se kam maine aisi film likhee jo
kahin na kahin shaheedon ke naam main ek shraddhaanjali de sakta
hoon. magar yeh waqt jo hai hamaari filmi safar ka, yeh ek bahut
achchha maahaul chal raha hai, main chaahta hoon ki meri ek film jo
ek baDi achchhi film thi, us film ke gaane logon ne bahut saraahe,
film thi Raja Hindustani, aur uska ek gaana jo mujhe pasand hai aur
mujhe lagta hai ki aap bhi pasand karenge, ki "poochho zara poochho
mujhe kya huya hai", main chaahoonga ki aap yeh gaana sune aur aanand
uThaaen.

Song: poochho zara poochho mujhe kya huya hai (Raja Hindustani)


fauji bhaaiyon, mujhe lag raha hai ki aapko achchha lag raha hoga
kyunki yeh woh gaane hain jo bahut mashoor rahe hain apne zamaane ke,
aur bahut logon ne chaahaa hai in gaano ko. mere bahut saare gaane
hain magar kyunki waqt bahut kam hai aur chand gaane hi aap tak
pahunchaane hain, isliye phir main aapko woh gaana sunwaana chaahta
hoon jo bahut chalaa tha, film thi Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, aur uska
yeh 'title' gaana hai.

Song: tum paas aaye (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai)


Nadeem Shravan aur mera saath, fauji bhaaiyon, jism aur rooh ki tarah
raha hai. bahut kaam kiya hai unke saath, bahut achchhe gaane unhone
deeye hain, aur ek aisa daur tha jab is tikDi ne, yaani ki Nadeem
Shravan Sameer ne milke bahut achchhe gaane aapko deeye aur beech
mein thoDaa sa 'gap' aa gaya tha, uske baad Nadeem Shravan aur mera
safar ek doosra shuru huya, aur jahaan se woh safar shuru huya tha us
film ka naam tha Raaz. aur mujhe yaad hai ki London ki vaadiyon mein
maine is film ke gaane likhe the, Nadeem us waqt London mein the aur
bahut Khoobsoorat 'music' huya tha. logon ne bahut saraaha tha yeh
gaana. yeh bahut 'simple' gaana hai, magar Mahesh Bhatt-ji ko yeh
gaana bahut pasand tha, Mahesh-ji ne is gaane ko sunne ke baad meri
baDi taarif kee thi, yeh film Raaz ka gaana hai aur gaane ke bol
hain "aap ke pyaar mein ham sanvarne lage".

Song: aap ke pyaar mein ham sanvarne lage (Raaz)


fauji bhaaiyon, saare sangeetkaar, mujhe naheen lagta hai
film 'industry' ke woh sangeetkaar jo mere daur ke sangeetkaar rahe
hon, jinka mera saath naheen huya ho, isi kaDee mein, main aap se
kahoon ki jab teesri peeDhee shuru huyi, Laxmikant Pyarelal, Anand
Milind, Nadeem Shravan ke baad Himesh Reshammiya-ji se mera saath
huya. unke saath maine safar shuru kiya aur unhone mera bahut saath
diya. main kahoon ki mujhe jawaan rakhne ki 'credit' agar kisi ko
dena chaahoonga to main Himesh ko hi dena chaahoonga kyunki Himesh ne
mujhse bahut pyaar se kaam karwaaya aur maine jo pehli film Himesh
Reshammjiya-ji ke saath kee thi, uska naam Tere Naam, aur is film
ka 'music' bhi ek tarah se 'milestone' raha aur unka saath is film se
juD gaya. uska ek gaana, jo gaana kam aur 'dialogue form' mein baDe
dino ke baad likha ki "tum se milna baaten karna baDaa achchha lagta
hai", aur yeh gaana itna mashoor huya ki logon ne poore 'album' mein
yahi gaana rakha huya tha. to main yeh chaahoonga ki aap yeh gaana
sune.

Song: tum se milna baaten karna (Tere Naam)


fauji bhaaiyon, waqt badalta rehta hai, mausam badalta rehta hai,
cheezen badalti rehti hain, to waise hi daur bhi badalta rehta hai.
phir bhi 'music' jo aap sun rahe hain, Aashiqui se leke ab tak ka, ek
alag tarah ka safar raha. phir meri zindagi mein ek aisa daur aaya ki
jab aajkal ke bachche, 14 saal se leke 24 saal tak ke hain, unse jab
main baat karne lagaa to maine dekha ki unki bhaashaa, jisemain
Hinglish kehta hoon, aise bhaashaa woh bolte hain ki jismein thoDi
Hindi bhi hai, thoDi English bhi hai, thoDi Urdu bhi hai, tamaam
bhaashaaon ka mishraN, ek khichDi bhaashaa unhone banaa dee hai, to
kahin na kahin thoDi takleef mujhe huyi unke saath 'cope' karne ke
liye, magar woh film jahaan se maine unko pakDaa, aur us daur ke
saath main ho liya, woh film thi Aashiq Banaya Aapne aur jismein
pehli baar Himesh Reshammiya ne apni aawaaz dee thi, aur woh gaana jo
bahut mashoor huya tha woh us film ka 'title' gaana hai.

Song: aashiq banaaya aapne (Aashiq Banaya Aapne)


faujiy bhaaiyon, meri bahut ichchha hai, bahut tamanna hai ki mujhe
ek aisi film mile ki jismein Javed saahab ne jaise ek bahut achchha
gaana likha hai aap logon ke liye aur us gaane ke bol hain
ki "sandese aate hain", kahin na kahin mere dil mein woh tamanna
adhoori reh gayi aur mujhe poori ummeed hai ki agar uparwaale ne
chaahaa to main ek aisi film karoongaa jo poori tarah se aap ko
samarpit hogi, jismein aise tamaam gaane main likhoonga jinhe sunkar
aapko achchha lagegaa, aap ko lagegaa ki kisi shaayar ne aap ke liye
ek film likhi hai aur main chaahta hoon ki aap mere liye duaa karen
ki aisi ek film mujhe mile aur main aapke liye kuchh achchha likhoon.
jaisa maine kahaa ki Shaheed Bhagat Singh ke gaane aap ne bahut
saraahe hain, chaahe hain, aur usmein saari baaten aapki aaspaas ki
rahi hain, aur main ek jaate jaate tamaam panktiyaan zaroor
gungunaana chaahta hoon ki ek mauka mujhe beech mein, ek kahaani
maine suni thi jismein mujhse poochha gaya tha, aur yeh main poore
mulk ke logon ko samarpit karna chaahta hoon ki kai baar hamse
poochha jaata hai ki hamaari zarooriyaat kya hai? insaan ki zaroorat
kya hoti hai? to maine kahaa hai ki "sarhad ke is paar aur sarhad ke
us paar kya chaahiye hamein, bas pyaar pyaar pyaar". kahin na kahin
aap ke dil mein bhi yeh tamanna hoti hogi, aap bhi chaahte honge ki
yeh jo sarhad hai Khatam ho jaaye aur logon mein pyaar aur mohabbat
baDh jaaye, aur aap log bhi jo itni takleef hamaare liye uThaate
hain, kahin na kahin chain aur sukoon ki zindagi bhi jee sake. ek
film jo abhi abhi aayi hai meri aur bahut mashoor bhi huyi hai is
saal, tamaam puraskaaron mein mera 'nomination' bhi raha hai is film
ke liye, baDi achchhi si film thi aur Abbas Mastan is film
ke 'director' the, Tips company iske 'producer' rahe hain, is film ka
naam hai Race, aur ek bahut hi 'romantic' gaana hai, aur gaane ke bol
hain "pehli nazar mein kaisa jaadoo kar diya", aur aap logon ne isko
bahut 'enjoy' karenge mujhe lagta hai, kyunki ek naujawaan dil ki
dhaDkan ka yeh geet hai, to aap isko sune aur 'enjoy' karen.

Song: pehli nazar mein kaisa jaadoo kar diya (Race)


fauji bhaaiyon, sach sach kahoon to jaane ka dil naheen ho raha hai
kyunki aap logon se agar baaten karta hoon to meri baaten bahut lambi
ho jaati hain, lagta hai ki 6 se 8 ghanTe ka 'programme' ho to main
aapka dil behlaata rahoon, itne saare mere gaane hain, aako sunaane
ka dil karta hai magar waqt ek aisi cheez hai jo kabhi swachhand
rehne ki aazaadi naheen detaa, woh apni bandishon mein rehne ke liye
kehta hai. waqt khatam ho chuka hai aur hamaara safar yaheen khatam
honewaala hai, aur jaate jaate phir se main aapko namaskaar, aadaab,
satsriakaal kehna chaahta hoon, mera bahut bahut pyaar aapke saath
mein, bahut saari duyaaen aapke saath, aapka saath bandook ka hai aur
mera saath kalam ka hai, ham dono is saath ko nibhaate rahenge, isi
qasam ke saath main aap se vidaa leta hoon, Jai Hind!

THE END

Hi,

I dont think VB announcer Ganesh Sharma is the same composer Ganesh
because in Pyarelal's Ujaale Unki Yaadon Ke series, they talked about
Ganesh but nowhere it was highligted that he was part of VB.

Mahendraji/ Yunus bhai, can you kindly confirm if Ganesh Sharma of
VBS and composer Ganesh (Sharma) are the same person or not.

Regards,
Sujoy Chatterjee

MUMBAI: The hugely popular weekly show 'Binaca Geetmala' that aired
top Bollywood songs during 1952-1994, is back with a different tune.

The show, which was anchored by veteran radio host Ameen Sayani,
garnered millions of regular fans and is now back in a unique concept
album format titled 'Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein'. The album was released
under the Saregama label on 26 January 2009.

'Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein' brings back the radio industry's icon,
Ameen Sayani in an album series comprising five volumes. The concept
album contains gems from Indian film music from 1930s to the 1950s.
This time, the veteran broadcaster has picked up songs which missed
the limelight by a whisker. "I went half mad doing the short listing.
I had to think of a lot of angles. In this compilation I am
highlighting the songs that maybe did not headline too much. For the
first three volumes, I hunted for the songs I thought were
outstanding but did not really got that much acclaim." Sayani said.

The remarkable repertoire of songs selected for 'Geetmala ki Chhaon
Mein' has been interwoven with interview snatches of filmstars like
Amitabh Bachchan, Kishore Kumar, Meena Kumari, Ashok Kumar, Nutan,
Sunil Dutt and many more. "The listeners will get a unique feel - a
feel of listening to the radio. Besides this, there are many star
interviews and a brief snippet of what was happening generally in
India during that time - it's an mixuture of humor, nostalgia and
poetry." Sayani adds, "It will definelty remind them of Binaca Geet
Mala."

At a time when SMS and emails were yet to appear on the horizon, the
success of the radio show was clear Ц it drew 9,000 letters after its
first show and thereafter an astounding 60, 000 letters a week! This
album is courtesy to the non stop requests that listeners have been
making, for more Ameen Sayani and 'Geetmala'. The veteran broadcaster
has a deep understanding of music and it's nature, Sayani
say's, "Music, like civilization, is a  river. It's origins are way
back in past and as it flows it keeps gathering treasures through his
shores therefore it continually flows in past present and moving in
future."  With 'Geetmala ki Chhaon Mein, hopefully the magic will
return.
