[NOTE: This Chhaya Geet was composed several months back; hence the reference
to the discussion on "Munna baRa pyaara..."]


RMIM ke bhaio aur baheno,

This is #26 of a series based on the famous Vividh Bharathi radio program
"Chhaya Geet" in which songs based on a particular theme are played.

This series serves to corroborate the "Naushad fan postulate" which states
that for every REAL life situation, there exists atleast one REAL song which
can be sung in your IMAGINARY world ! :-) This series is also a small tribute
to my favourite Vividh Bharathi announcer and Chhaya Geet hostess Kanta Gupta.

CHHAYA GEET #26

TODAY'S SITUATION/THEME: The recent discussion on RMIM regarding the song
"Munna baRa pyaara, ammi ka dulara..." is the inspiration for this cGeet. A
"new arrival" in the family is certainly a joy of infinite proportions for
all. Whether it's a munna or a munni, there isn't anything else in the world
which can bring so much joy in your life, the dirty diapers notwithstanding :-)
Today's cGeet is dedicated to the munna/munnis of this world!

Sami Mohammed (A Naushad fan)


1. Munna baRa pyaara, ammi ka dulaara
   Koi kahe chand koi aankh ka taara
   Hanse to bhala lage, roe to bura lage
   Koi kahe chand koi aankh ka taara.....................................(KK)

2. Chanda hai tu mera sooraj hai tu
   O meri aankhon ka taara hai tu
   Jeeti hun main bas tujhe dekhke
   Is tooTe dil ka sahaara hai tu
   Chanda hai tu mera sooraj hai tu...................................(Lata)

3. Mere ghar aaee ek nanhi pari
   Chandni ke hasin rath pe sawaar
   Mere ghar aaee ek nanhi pari.........................................(Lata)

4. Tujhe sooraj kahun ya chanda
   Tujhe deepak kahun ya taara
   Mera naam karega roshan
   Jag me mera raajdulaara..........................................(Manna Dey)

5. Juhi ki kali meri laaRli
   Naazon ki pali meri laaRli
   (memory failure due to Shanky-J :-( Please help) ..........(Suman Kalyanpur)

6. GuRiya, humse rooTHi rahogi, kab tak na hansogi
   Dekhoji kiran si leharaai, dekhoji aai re hansi aai
   Dekhoji kiran si leharaai, dekhoji aai re hansi aai...............(Lata)

7. Maangi thhi ek dua, jo qubool ho gaee
   Ummeed ki kali, khil ke phool ho gaee
   Maangi thhi ek dua, jo qubool ho gaee......................(Mahendra Kapoor)
