In actuality, he did only one more: Tumsa Nahin Dekha, a movie produced by Shashadhar Mukherjee and directed by Nasir Hussain before the latter latched on to A sha Parekh, which happened only in 1960. Else he would have done at least another dozen movies in 1957. Lets proceed further into the world of Sahir Ludhianvi’s songs.Īfter taking up songs of 1957 movies Bade Sarkar, Naya Daur, and Pyaasa, it would come as a pleasant surprise that the year 1957 wasn’t yet over for Sahir. Sahir was given the moniker of being the People’s Poet. The following posts about Sahir Ludhianvi have been reconstructed from the same page. I have several (almost a dozen) posts on my blog on my favourite lyricist and poet Shakeel Badayuni. Indeed, on the Facebook I have a page titled ‘Lyrical’ to honour and pay tribute to various lyricists. Let me reiterate that I am a lyrical man words of the songs are often the most important part of the songs for me.
Of course, the Part II we had started with ‘Ye baharon ka sama’ from the 1955 Dev Anand, Geeta Bali movie Milaap. This was the last and the 18th movie when Sahir Ludhianvi paired with SD Burman. In ‘The Best Songs Of Sahir Ludhianvi – Part II’, I gave you two songs more than two dozens as I wanted to finish with the songs of 1957 Guru Dutt classic Pyaasa in one part only (the last song was ‘Aaj sajan mohe ang laga lo’). I soon settled with giving you his songs chronologically from Thandi hawayen, lehrake aayen (from 1951 movie Naujawaan) to Ab woh karam karen yaa sitam main nashen main hoon (from 1955 movie Marine Drive).
Initially, I started with a favourite of mine: Aurat ne janam diya mardon ko, mardon ne use bazaar diya, from the 1958 BR Chopra movie Sadhana. In ‘The Best Songs Of Sahir Ludhianvi – Part I’, I gave you two dozen songs.
