Have a story to tell? A theme to work on? An emotion to express? A mood to paint? Easy. You can do all this and more with Hindi film songs. For musical stories or theme-based songs or lyrical expressions of moods or...whatever, this promises to be a fun-filled ride. Come, get on the bandwagon!

Costume Drama: Laal Chhadi Maidan Khadi

We have had very few male solos in this space. Presenting one from "Janwar" (1965) today. This is a romantic drama starring Shammi Kapoor, Rajshree, Rajendranath, Prithviraj Kapoor, Asit Sen, Rehman, Shyama and Achala Sachdev.

This song was very popular in its time. People liked Shammi Kapoor's antics. Today, the idea of stalking a woman with persistent song and dance looks outdated and uncool, though.

Singer: Mohammad Rafi
Lyrics: Shailendra
Music: Shankar Jaikishan
