I've extended the originally planned 2-song tribute to Madhubala. I'll be posting FIVE of her old classics (starting with the earlier post - #309), each sung by a different artiste. The ATMJH post-frequency is not as low as I originally though it to be, so I figured I'd spend the rest of February on Madhubala. #310 Song: Khushiyon ko lootkar yahaan Dete hain gham nishaaniyaan Kab tak rahegi pyaar par Duniya ki meherbaaniyaan Film: Shirin Farhad (1956) Music: S.Mohinder Lyrics: Tanvir Naqvi Singer: Asha Bhosle, Hemant Kumar *ing: Madhubala, Pradeep Kumar This duet is one of a series of beautiful Hemant Kumar duets in this movie. I feel this song has got this wavy sort of rhythm and mood to it, much like the other two duets from the movie - 'Ae dilruba jaan-e-wafa' with Asha and 'Aa ja o jaan-e-wafa' with Lata. (I don't know if the soundtrack is available on CD/tape, but it is a great buy for Hemantda fans).
