Celebrations - With Pancham. Saturday, June 27, 2015. Tum Aa Gaye Ho. Last few days, one has seen a plethora of articles and posts about Emergency, that was imposed in India on 26th June 1975 & lasted for a period of 19 months. Be as it may be, even after 4 decades, the compositions of this movie have remained amongst the best of Pancham; often compared to Amar Prem for the class of rendition and depth of verse. However, what is special are the verse that – despite being penned for a romantic situa...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Sunday, August 24, 2014. Mera Woh Samaan Lauta Do. The movie - a poignant tale of the eternal love triangle, comes across like a poem on celluloid. Absolutely stunning locales, breathtaking photography, very mature handling of the story, crisp direction and power-packed performances by three protagonists – Rekha, Naseer and Anuradha Patel! Ek Akeli Chhatri Me Jab. Aadhe Aadhe Bhig Rahe The. Aadhe Sukhe Aadhe Geele,. Sukhaa To Main Le Aayi Thi. Woh Bhijavaa Do,. It was interes...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Saturday, August 8, 2015. Pyar Se Yeh Jahan Kahe Na Mil Ke Rahe. After the breathless rendition of Bamchiki Chaam Chiki. Here is another rarely heard composition of Pancham - once again involving Kishore Kumar and Biswajeet. However, before that, kindly bear with me as I take you on a trip down my memory lane. You will soon know the reason. The success of Kahin Karti Hogi. Failure of the movie otherwise, meant that other compositions were never well appreciated. Amongst t...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Monday, June 30, 2014. Humko Zamane Se Kya. Khel Khel Mein" was released in 1975, and found RD at his creative best. If a taut screenplay, and crisp direction (Ravi Tandon) and editing made the movie watchable, the chemistry of a fresh lead pair set the screen on fire. For Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, this was one of their early movies - and perhaps one of their biggest hits. So listen to Asha and Kishore in one of the zaniest songs about love:.

Celebrations - With Pancham. Saturday, May 24, 2014. Duniya Men, Paise Bina, Kaise Hum Jiyenge. Coming back to 1978, apart from Devata, there were a few more, v ery noteworthy and successful releases, which found RD in his full elements. These were Ghar, Kasme Vaade and Shalimaar. I will surely get to those compositions, but just now, would love to play a song from another Dharmendra starrer from that year - Phande Baaz. The pick of the compositions was however a duet by Rafi and Lata. The compositio...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Friday, February 28, 2014. Achchhi Nahin Sanam Dillagi. Getting back to the composition, it is a lilting duet - penned by Majrooh - that starts of with a Sax prelude and has very subtle score through out, including interludes. The harmony is created by relying more on the vocal chemistry of Asha and Kishore - who carry out their bit so well that song remains as sweet as it was 4 decades ago. See for yourself, and then close your eyes, and just enjoy the song:. With formula dr...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Tere Bina Jiya jaaye Na. Looking at the clip of Rampur Ka Laxaman, I felt like playing a simple quiz - What's the Good Word? One word - in English language - that describes a major change in the appearance or character of someone or something? Easy to answer - Metamorphosis! Now, the only word from Hindi film industry that is a perfect synonym of Metamorphosis? Much more easy to answer - Rekha! More importantly, for the way the song was structured...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Saturday, May 30, 2015. Pyaar Ke Mod Pe. Post Saveray Wali Gadi in 1986, Pancham created a few more compositions that brought Asha Bhosle and Suresh Wadkar together. Most of these were lacking that punch which Pancham was known for. This was also the time, where Pancham’s score seemed to be jaded – at least in a few movies including Dacait and Joshilaay. This changed however in Parinda - a movie by Vidhu Vindo Chopra - an unabashed Pancham fan. Though it is a duet, it is the ...

Celebrations - With Pancham. Saturday, October 4, 2014. Nodir Pare Utchhe Dhoa. Last week, while listening to some of Bangla renditions of Pancham himself, I came across a gem, which was released a couple of years after Maati Mange Khoon. I am not sure as to which one was the inspiration, Yet, I am so awestruck with this Bangla composition as well as its rendition, that for once I am not playing the Hindi version at all.
