        Song: Ja Ja Ja Re, Ja Re Ja~~~, Ranj-O-Gam Ke Andhere  Tu
Ja~~ ...

        Film:   Naya Ghar (1953)
        Music:  Shankar Jaikishan
        Lyrics: Shailendra
        Singer: Lata Mangeshkar
        *ing:   ?

This fast paced song, is sung high with some short &  nice  taans
of Lata. I suppose this one is fairly known song.

Shankar and Jaikishan, composed two of Talat's  finest  songs  in
this film too:

        Hum Unake Paas Aate Hain, Wo Hum Se Door Jaate Hain
        Tadap Kar Daastaan Apani, Bahaaron Ko Sunaate Hain

                        and

        Unhe Tu Bhul Jaa Ai Dil, Tadapane Se Bhi Kyaa Haasil

One from one composer and other from other member  of  the  team.
According  to  Raju  Bharatan  (in  ToI  in 1989), following song
penned by Hasrat Jaipuri is also by Shankar:

        Lagaa Kar Dil Pareshaan Hai, Muhobat Dekh Li Hum Ne

I really like this number. Lata, is  very  soft,  though  singing
high. My other favourite Lata number from film is:

        Lo Aaye Hain, Lo Aaye Hain, Din Pyaar Karane Ke
        Nigaahen Ab Chaar Karane Ke ..... (Hasrat)

IMO, this is Jaikishan composition.

Note: I am away till end of first week of May.
