Music In The Mountains: Ho Koi Aayega Aayega Aayega

A charming duet by Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle from "Professor" (1962). When the two sisters sing together, they create something special. Here it is an energetic song and dance with folkish steps performed by a group of women in picturesque surroundings.

Another song Main chali main chali peechhe peechhe jahaan from the same film has appeared earlier in this space under the ongoing theme.

Singers: Asha Bhosle, Lata Mangeshkar
Lyrics: Hasrat Jaipuri
Music: Shankar Jaikishan

Music In The Mountains: Main Chali Main Chali Peechhe Peechhe Jahaan

There is a certain charm about seeing a train winding its way in the mountains. Several Hindi films have featured song sequences shot in or on top of trains undulating on curvaceous tracks in scenic hilly areas. Here is one such duet from "Professor" (1962). This is a romantic comedy directed by Lekh Tandon. Shammi Kapoor played a young man and and an old man at the same time, putting his lovable antics to good use. The leading lady is Kalpana. I am amused to see that her outfit is completely in sync with what young women wear today. Coming from a 56-year-old film, it is quite interesting!

Singers; Lata Mangeshkar, Mohammad Rafi
