Namaskar Friends,
After a gap of almost a year, restarting my series - अनमोल रतन - wherein I present some of the great songs of yesteryears. Hope you would like this one too.
English version follows the Marathi version below.
Song #13: कश्ती का ख़ामोश सफ़र है (Kashti Ka Khamosh Safar Hai)
Film: Girlfriend (1960)
Director: Satyen Bose
Cast: Kishore Kumar, Waheeda Rehman, Nasir Hussain, Leela Mishra, Daisy Irani and Dhumal
This purely is a romantic song where the Boy wants to say something to the Girl, the Girl is equally eager to hear him; however, he cannot utter a single word until her "शर्मिली निगाहें" and his "बेताब उमंगे" permit/allow him to share his feelings. How beautifully Sahir, through these 4 words, has so aptly described the feelings of both the young love birds! The fact that both are travelling in a boat has been depicted wonderfully through the music composed by Hemant Kumar. And what a sweet, calm and excellent singing by both Kishore Kumar and Sudha Malhotra!
The mood of the song is set by beautiful pieces of Violin and Flute at the start, and what follows is a divine voice of Kishore Kumar in lower octave (which is rare). Sudha Malhotra too has sung well. This is perhaps the rarest of the songs of this duo. The last line of the song is sung by Kishore Kumar in his typical style. Please do also read the lyrics which are too good.
The video of the movie is not available on the internet; hence I have shared here an audio version with some great commentary by the legendary Amin Sayani famous for his Binaca Geetmala on Radio Ceylone once upon a time.
Hope you would enjoy the song. Please do leave a comment on the blog itself. Thank you.
प्रथमच ऐकलं हे गाणं. तू ह्या गाण्याबद्दल अगदी सुरेख शब्दांत लिहिलं आहेस. किती शांत आणि सुरेख गाणं आहे. दोघांचाही आवाज अप्रतिम. एकदा ऐकून समाधान न झाल्याने चारपाच वेळा ऐकलं!!!
