Tomorrow is C Ramchanra's death anniversary. Here is a song sung by himself as a tribute to this great composer. #129 Song: Dil Mere Ud Ja, Mohobat Ka Paigaam Le Ke Bichhade Hue Saajan Ka, Salaam Le Ke Ud Ja Mera Salaam Le Ke ... Film: Roshni (1949) Music: Ramchandra Chitalkar Lyrics: Pyarelal Santoshi Singer: Chitalkar *ing: ? In my scheme of things, this one is my all time favourite song, and would rate THE best of Chitalkar. Sarangi pieces after 'Mera Salam Leke Ud Ja' are very lucid, extremely melodious. Each stanza ends with 'Mera Salam Leke Ud Ja' and same sarangi pieces. He charges the song/rendition with feelings/emotions while going little up towards the end of each stanza while singing 'Kehna Unhe Jaake Mera Naam Le Ke' and other lines from respective antaras. I vaguely remember hearing a song of Shamshad (perhaps with Chitalkar) from the film, but can't provide any detail. I would appreciate more information from the film.
