I thought that the 2-tie-brk will be very difficult so I had put it last, but to my utter surprise as many as 15 out of 21 got it !! I hope not, but if the order of songs confused you, I am sorry. This quiz was a tribute to my favourite Rafi. All the songs were Rafi solo !! And none of them is a sad song ! The actors I know are only Shammi Kapoor, Joy Mukherjee, Rajendrakumar ! Quite a narrow field, but what songs, what variety ! Rafi the Great !!! I have tried to include, Film/MD etc. wherver possible. And Preetham has promised to fill in the gaps :-) And now for the answers. Here goes ... -------------------------------------- 1. muhabbat ki ye intiha ho gayi, ke masti me tum ko khuda kah gaya jamaana ye insaaf karataa rahe, bhalaa keh gayaa, ya buraa keh gayaa The craziest song by Rafi. Simple. 15 got it. Song : badan pe sitare lapete hue, o jaane tamanna kidhar ja rahi ho Film : Prince *ing : Shammi, Vaijayantimala MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 2. teri aankhon me aisi masti hain, jaise chhalake hue ho paimane tere hothon pe wo khamoshi hain, jaise bikhare hue ho afsaane nagmagar dhundale agar tuzko, dard bharade wo dilke taron me .. What a romantic song ;-) 14 got it correct, but 2 got it wrong. Song : husn-waale tera jawaab nahin .. Film : Gharana *ing : Rajendrakumar, Sadhana MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 3. dil mila, ek jaane mehfil mila, ya chirage manzil mila ye na poochho ke kahan ... naya naya ye ashiqi ka raag hain mera taali ho ... taali ho Wasn't it simple Sami ? 18 others got it. :-) Song : baar baar dekho, hazar baar dekho Film : China Town *ing : Shammi Kapoor, Shakeela MD : OP Nayyar -------------------------------------- 4. dheere dheere jalane me kaisa hai maza The stanza goes, poochho poochho poochho, parwaane se jara dheere dheere jalane me kaisa hai maza ho ho ho tum bhi dil deke jal jaana sikho ji First movie for both Asha Parekh and Usha Khanna. Song : dil deke dekho, dil deke dekho, dil deke dekho ji Film : Dil Deke Dekho *ing : Shammi Kapoor, Asha Parekh MD : Usha Khanna -------------------------------------- 5. tauba ye nigahe ye rokati hai rahe dekho le le ke teer-kaman, hai A typical OP Nayyar song. Song : lakho hain nigaah me, zindagi ki raah me Film : Phir Wohi Dil Laaya HooN *ing : MD : OP Nayyar -------------------------------------- 6. youn na akele phira karo, sabki nazar se daraa karo phool se jyada nazook ho tum, chaal sambhal kar chala karo zulfon ko gira do gaalon par, mausam ki nazar na lage .. chashm-e-baddoor ! Simplest of all. Everybody got it !! Song : teri pyari pyari soorat ko, kisi ki nazar na lage Film : Gharana *ing : Rajendrakumar, B.Sarojadevi MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 7. farishtay bhi yahan raaton ko aakar jhoomate honge jahan rakhati ho tum pao jageh wo choomate honge kisi ke dil pe kya guzari, ye wohi jaanata hoga ... ?? ... So this was not simple, even for C.S.Sudarshana Bhat. Song : khuda bhi aasaman se jab zamin par dekhata hoga Film : *ing : MD : -------------------------------------- 8. jiski tadap se rukh pe tumhare aya nikhar ghajab ka jiske lahu se aur bhi chamakaa rang tumhare lab ka Again not simple. Song : banda parvar, thaam lo jigar, ban ke pyar phir ayaa hoon Film : Phir Wohi Dil Laaya HooN *ing : MD : OP Nayyar -------------------------------------- 9. ye roop hasin roop, bahut khoob hai lekin ulfat ke bina phika, chehra tera rangin ek deep muhabbat ka kehdo to laga doon main ... Gustakhi maaf ; but this is one my favourite songs and only C.S.Sudarshana Bhat and Neeraj Mainkar from the top guys got it :-( Listen to how Rafi plays with the word "Gustakhi", he always sings it in different style. Song : chehre pe giri zulfe, kehdo to hata doon main, gustaakhi maaf ! Film : Sooraj *ing : Rajendrakumar, Vaijayantimala MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 10. gar wo theahrate mere saamane, dil pe tir chal jaate wo hasin hain, main jawan hoon, saare bhed khul jaate Difficult. Song : nazar bacha kar chale gaye wo, varna ghayal kar deta Film : Dil Tera Diwana Hai *ing : Shammi, Mala Sinha MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 11. dilbar o jaane jaana ghusse ke roop me lagati ho aur hasin teri kaatil adaa ne maar hi daalaa, kar tu iska yakeen he he he, April fool banaya :-) Well, only C.S.Sudarshana Bhat and Sanjeev got it. This is one of the songs where one does not remember any stanzas. Song : April fool banaya, to unko ghussa ayaa Film : Jaanwar *ing : Shammi, Rajashree MD : SJ ?? -------------------------------------- 12. wo teekhe teekhe do naina us shokh se aankh mila na tha deni thi qayaamat ko daawat, ik aafat se takaranaa tha use dekh ke lal dupatte me, maine naam diya hai ... Song : lal chhadi, maidaan khadi Film : Jaanwar *ing : Shammi, Rajashree MD : SJ ?? -------------------------------------- 13. mere haatho me tera chehra tha jaise koi gulaab hotaa hain aur sahaara liya tha bahon ka, wo samaa kis tarah bhoolaoge Well, now giving a second thought, this might be considered as a sad song. Song : haan, tum mujhe youn bhula na paoge Film : Pagala Kahin Ka *ing : Shammi, Asha Parekh, Helen MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 14. ab to saari duniya pe jaahir hai haal hamara pahonch ke is manzil se lautanaa ab to hain dushwar jeena bhi mushkil haye, marna bhi mushkil Simple in "not so simple" category. 14 got it. Song : khuli palak me, jhoota ghussa, band palak me pyar Film : Professor *ing : Shammi, Kalpana MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 15. ye mel do ghadi ka do dino ki hai bahar samay ki behati dhaar karati jaati hain pukar, haye haye ... mehman kab ruke hain, kaise roke jayenge I agree this should have been in difficult category. Song : sabere waale gaadi se chale jaayenge Film : *ing : MD : -------------------------------------- 16. hamse jo baazi lekar jaye, hai koi aisa saamne aaye hai koi aisa saamne aaye, And the end of the satnza is completed by saari duniya, saari dunyaa me apni jaikar, yahan ke ham hain .. This proved to be difficult even for the topper Rajesh Subramanian ! Song : jaanewaale jara hoshiyaar, yahan ke ham hain raajkumar Film : Raajkumar *ing : Shammi, Sadhana MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 17. haathon me jo haath hai jeevanbhar ka saath hai Ha ha !! Many fell for this trick ! Including Rajat Bhatnagar, C.S.Sudarshana Bhat, Sami and Pushkar Bapat. The line gives a wrong picture of the actual mood of the song ! It's not a sober one, but a crazy one by Rafi :-) haathon me jo haath hai, jeevanbhar ka saath hai seedhi sachchi bat hai, kahaani na samzo Aiyayyo ? main kya karoon ? How did you miss this one ? Song : aiyayya karoon main kya suku suku Film : Janglee *ing : Shammi, Sayara Banu MD : SJ ?? -------------------------------------- 18. teri baate tere kisse rehte hai hardam mehfil ho ya veerana ho ya koi mausam neend nahin aati hain mujhko aaramse ... aisa lagata hain ke ab hum gaye kaam se :-) This should have been the tie-breaker :-) Only Rajesh Subramanian and JG got it. Song : dhadakane lagata hai dil, tere naam se Film : Dil Tera Diwana *ing : Shammi, Mala Sinha MD : SJ ?? -------------------------------------- 19. seene me dil hai, dil me tum hi ho .. tum me hamaari chhoti si jaan hain tum ho salaamat hamko nahin gum, tumse hamaari duniyaa jawan hain Not so difficult as I thought, half of them got it. Shammi dancing in his weird dress and another crazy Rafi song ... Song : Ho hoho.. tumse accha kaun hai, dil lo jigar lo jaan lo Film : Jaanwar *ing : Shammi, Rajshree MD : SJ ?? -------------------------------------- 20. khwaab me tumko akhsar dekha, aaj mujassim saamne aayaa Song : deewane ka naam to poochho, pyar se dekho, kaam to poochho Film : Evening in Paris *ing : Shammi, Sharmila MD : SJ -------------------------------------- 21. meri aankhon ki justajoo tum ho, iltija tum ho, aarzoo tum ho main kisi aur ko to kya jaanoo, meri ulfat ki aabaroo tum ho It's such a nice song, but only top 3 got it :-( This time Rafi is playing with the word "janaanaa". Song : oh mere shahe khooba, o meri jaane janaanaa Film : Love in Tokyo *ing : Joy Mukerjee, Asha Parekh MD : -------------------------------------- 22. gesu khule to shaam ke dil se dhua uthe 7 got it ! So is my understanding of difficulty :-( Song : ab kya misal du main tumhare shabaab ki Film : *ing : MD : -------------------------------------- 23. kahi dard ke sehra me rukate chalate hote in hothon ke hasarat me, tapate jalate hote mehraban ho gayi, zulf ki badliyan ... jaane man, jaane jan As if the previous song was not enough, this was correctly guessed by 10 ! One of the rare good RD-Rafi songs. And favourite of not only me, but many other nettors ! Song : tumane mujhe dekha, hokar mehraban Film : Teesari Manzil *ing : Shammi, Asha Parekh MD : RD Burman -------------------------------------- First tiebreaker, (used if more than one share top spot in above 23) Clue : This is from a very famous OP Nayyar movie. 24. chaand bhi sadake hota ho jab raat ko woh soti ho Here is the stanza... aisi nazuk ho wo jiska, shabnam muh dhoti ho, chaand bhi sadake hota ho jab raat ko woh soti ho, aankh sharabi, gaal gulaabi, aankh sharaabi sharaabi, gaal gulaabi pyar pe sawar dekho zindagi meri ... Well I should stop mentioning this, but 10 people got it. And those who didn't, include Sami and Pushkar Bapat ! This nice tune is from the most famous OP Nayyar movie, "Kashmir Ki Kali", it's the first song in that movie. And it's Sharmila Tagore's first movie. When the movie was released, one of the Marathi periodicals gave the following title to their review :- "Ek Sharmila, Ek Gorilla" Song : kisi na kisise, kabhi na kabhi, kahin na kahin, dil lagana padega Film : Kashmir Ki Kali *ing : Shammi, Sharmila MD : OP Nayyar -------------------------------------- Second tiebreaker (used only if first one is not sufficient) Clue : This is the very begining (!) of a famous song. 25. Jara thehero, sadaa mere dil ki jara sunti jaana I am slapping my forhead, 15 got it !! BTW, this was the only repetition :-) The movie is Professor, and has a few SJ masterpieces, like "Ai gulbadan", "Awaaz deke hame tum bulao" and this one Song : khuli palak me jhuta ghussa, band palak me pyar Film : Professor *ing : Shammi, Kalpana MD : SJ -------------------------------------- So, friends, it was a great fun for me.
