Garden Of Five Senses: Jara Sa Usko Chhua To

"Shor" (1972) was a Manoj Kumar baby. He not only produced, directed, wrote and edited it, but played the lead role in it also. A peppy solo from this film today which was overshadowed by the more popular "Ek pyaar kaa nagmaa hai" and "Paani re paani ". Saw this video after decades. It reinforced the fact that Jaya Bachchan (she was Jaya Bhaduri then) was not very comfortable when it came to dancing.

Rain Songs: Megha Re Megha Re

Here is a wonderful song from "Pyaasa Sawan" (1981), a reasonably successful film directed by Dasari Narayana Rao. It featured Jeetendra in a double role--playing father and son--along with Moushumi Chatterji and Reena Roy as the leading ladies. This duet contains very high-pitched notes throughout, beautifully rendered by Lata Mangeshkar and Suresh Wadkar. Though a gifted singer, Wadkar could not make much of a mark in playback singing for Hindi films.
