Music In The Mountains: Suhana Safar Aur Ye Mausam Haseen

Here is another gem from the black and white era. This lovely solo from "Madhumati" (1958) is an audio-visual delight. Flowers bursting with freshness, rivers gurgling with abandon, mountains kissing the horizon in the distance, and a dapper Dilip Kumar trotting joyously; taking us along with him on this wonderful trip! Some frames are breathtaking, especially the one where he is standing facing the mountains with a lone tree to his left for company.

Two more songs from the same film have appeared in this space. They are Ghadi ghadi mora dil dhadke under another theme and Dil tadap tadap ke under the ongoing theme.

Singer: Mukesh
Lyrics: Shailendra
Music: Salil Chowdhury

  1. Another oldie seen on good old DD. One of the famous salil choudary songs. The scenery would have been awesome in colour
