Yesterday -- 27th January -- was death anniversary of Sohrab Modi
-- The lion of Minerva Movieton. He gave us many historical films
like Sikandar, Yahudi, Zansi Ki Rani etc. etc. He  also  gave  us
social  dramas  in  Shish  Mahal,  Jailor  etc. All his films had
memorable  songs.  I  pay  tributes  to  him  through  ATMJH,  by
recalling this soundtrack of 1950s, still remembered by people

#141
        Song: Ye Bahaaron Ke Din, Ye Suhaana Samaa
                Ab To Sun Lijiye, Pyaar Ki Daastaan

        Film:   Kundan (1956)
        Music:  Gulam Mohammad
        Lyrics: Shaqeel Badayuni
        Singer: Mohammad Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar
        *ing:   Balraj Sahani?, ?

This song has very pleasant,  quite  melodious  tune.  Orchestral
movements  are ver y catchy; piano, violins, clarinet, tabla; all
play a significant role in it.  Listening to this song,  gives  a
good feelings and fatigue, if any, vanishes.

There exist two good Lata solos. One, in particular, was hit then

        Shikayat Kya Karun Dono Taraf Gam Ka Fasaana Hai
                Mere Aage Muhobat Hai, Tere Aage Zamaana Hai

Other, song is also worth listening: Jahan Waale Hume  Duniya  Me
Kyun Paida Kiya Tune, has standard Gulam Mohammad stamp on it.

Film also has an enjoyable, light duet by S D  Batish  and  Sudha
Malhotra

        Aao Hamaari Hotel Me, Chhay Piyo Ji Garama Garama
                Bhajiya Khao Narama Narama ..........
