I am quoting Chetan Vinchhi on today's ATMJH (w/o his permission,
hoping  he  won't  mind), hence making it first guest ATMJH. With
this I conclude this series on grand old great man -- Anil Biswas
--  who  showed  the music directors and music lovers in general,
what a film music should be. - Snehal

#233         Song: Saanz Ki Laali, Sulag Sulag Kar  Ho  Gai  Kali
Raat                 Aaye Na Phir Bhi Baalmaa, Main ???? ???? ???

              Intezaar Aur Abhi, Aur Abhi, Aur Abi, Intezaar  Aur

        Film:   Char Dil Char Raahen (1959)          Music:  Anil
Biswas           Lyrics: Sahir   Ludhianwi           Singer: Lata
Mangeshkar          *ing:   Raj  Kapoor,  Meena  Kumari,   Shammi
Kapoor, Nimmi, Ajit

A raagmala with one stanza each based on Yaman,  Bihag,  Bhairav.
The scene-on-the-screen incorporates a clock sounding the hour at
the beginning of each stanza. Blending the clock sound  with  the
music  was  a  stroke  of genius.  Although I called this a mujra
(due to the situation), it is really a semiclassical song. A true
masterpiece.
