This week, I will post some  C  Ramchandra  songs,  for  sake  of
nostalgia.

#155
        Song: Kabhi Tanhaai Me Aisi Bhi Ghadi Aayi
                Lakh Dil Ne Chaaha Rona, Phir Bhi Hansi Aayi

        Film:   Meenar (1954)
        Music:  Ramchandra Chitalkar
        Lyrics: Rajendra Krishna
        Singer: Talat Mehmood
        *ing:   ?

This song has been set to a difficult tune, that Talat sings with
quite  ease.  A  hummable, song. The way Talat comes to sam after
'... Aayi' is quite commendable  as  that's  the  part  which  is
difficult, for it's peculiar steep ascendance there.

Film's best known song is (actually now  'was',  thanks  to  ...)
this lovely duet by Talat and Lata

        Zaraa Mud To Dekho Saajana
        Dekho Pichhe Reh Gayaa Zamanaa? ....

Isn't it in Ektaal ?

Lata sung this melodious solo for the film

        Na Saamane Aavoge, Na Apanaa Pataa Doge
        Barbaad Muhobat Ko, Kab Tak Yun Saja Doge

which reminds a songs of Naata (1955) 'Is Bewafaa Jahan Ka Dastur
Hai Purana...'
