Kalyanji ( Kalyanji Anandji)-Music Director (Originally recorded in 1974)

Fauji bhaiyon ko Kalyanji aur Anandji ka namaskaar. Vividh Bharati ke maadhyam se pichhle kitne saalon se aap hamare gaane sun rahe honge. Ab tak hum logon ne 100 ke upar filmon mein sangeet de chuke hain. Main in geeton ko teen bhaagon mein baant-ta hoon, homeopathic, allopathic aur ayurvedic. Ab aap samajh rahe honge ki yeh koi doctor Jaimala prastut kar raha hai kya. Main aapko bata hoon in teen categories ke baare mein. Homoeopathic mein we gaane aate hain jinhe banate samay
humein yeh pata naheen rehta ki gaana kaisa banega, yaa to bahut
achchha banega ya phir bahut hi bekaar banega. Allopathic category
mein we gaane aate hain jo pehle pehle to sunne mein bahut achchhe
lagte hain par samay ke saath saath unki madhurta kam hone lagti hai
jis tarah se allopathic dawaaiyon ka baad mein reaction aur side effects hota hai. Aur teesra category hai ayurvedic ka, ismein we gaane aate hain jo pehle sunne mein utna achchha naheen bhi lag sakta
hai, par dheere dheere unki mithaas badhti chali jaati hai. To aaj main is karyakram mein aapko kuch aise hi ayurvedic gaane sunwane jaa raha hoon. Sabse pehle suniye film Suhaag Raat mein Lataji ki awaaz,
Indeevarji ka geet.

[Greetings to military brethrens from Kalyanji and Anandji. You must have been listening to our songs for several years courtesy Vividh Bharati. Till now, we have composed music for more than 100 movies. I categorise these songs in three categories, viz Homeopathic, allopathic and ayurvedic. Now you may be thinking that it is some doctor who is presenting Jaimala. Let me explain about these three categories. Homoeopathic songs are those about whose fate we are not sure at the time of creating them. Allopathic category songs are those which may sound nice in the beginning but whose effect may wear off with passage of time just like allopathic medicines are known to have their side effects. And the third category of songs are ayurvedic songs. The songs falling under this category are those who may not sound nice in the beginning but they begin to sound nice as time passes. I am going to play some ayurvedic songs in this programme. At the outset, let us listen to a song from the movie Suhagraat, sung by Lata, whose lyrics were by Indeewar.]

Song: Mayya o Ganga mayya (Suhaag Raat)

Ab iske baad ek aur aisa hi ayurvedic geet prastut hai, is geet ke
peechhe ek kahani hai. Anandji, mere chhote bhai, kai saal pehle
Indeevarji ne ek geet likha tha jise Anandji ne us samay apne paas
rakh liya tha. Manoj Kumar jab Upkaar film bana rahe the tab Pran
sahab ke liye aisi hi ek geet ki situation aa gayi. Us samay Pran
sahab film mein kabhi geet naheen gaya karte the, unke roles bade
serious kism ke hote the. Upkaar mein pehli baar unhone kisi geet
mein abhinay kiya. Manna Dey sahab ne itni khoobsurti ke saath gaaya
hai ki lagta hi naheen ki ksi ne playback kiya hai.

[Now, I am going to present one more Ayurvedic category of song.There is a story behind this song.Many years ago, Indeewarji had written a song which Anandji,my younger brother, had kept with him. When Manoj Kumar was producing the movie “Upkaar” then the situation arose for a similar song that needed to be picturised on Pran. Till then, Pran was not known to sing songs in movies, as his roles used to be of serious nature. “Upkaar” was the first movie in which he sang on screen. Manna Dey sahab has sung this song so beautifully that one does not feel like this song is a plaback song.]

Song: Kasmen vaaden pyar wafa sab baaten hai (Upkaar)

Ab jo geet main aapko sunwaane jaa raha hoon woh geet hai Himalay Ki God Mein film se, main to ek khwaab hoon is khwaab se tu pyar na kar. Is geet ke liye humdono ko pehli baar Cine Music Directors ka award mila tha. is geet se judee ek ghatna aapko batata hoon. Is geet ke
record hone ke baad mujhe ek ladki ka phone aaya ki usey yeh geet
bahut pasand hai aur woh mere munh se yeh geet sunna chahti hai.
Maine usey ghar par bulaya, gaana sunaya, woh chali gayi. Phir kuchh
dino baad uska phone aaya ki woh ek baar phir mujhe sunna chahti hai.
Maine usey phir bula liya. Aise 3-4 baar jab uske phone aate rahe,
Mujhe lag raha tha ki chakkar kuchh aur hi hai, to jab chauthi baar
jab woh mere ghar aayi, maine gaaya, main to ek BAAP hoon is BAAP se tu pyar na kar. To suniye yeh geet Mukesh ki awaaz mein, bol likhe
hain Qamar Jalalabadi ne.

[The next song is from the movie ” Himalay Ki God Mein”, ” main to ek khwaab hoon is khwaab se tu pyar na kar”. For this song, we got Cine Music Directors award for the first time in our career.Let me tell you about an incident associated with this song. After the recording of this song, I received a phone from a girl saying that she loved this song and she would like to listen to this song in my voice. I invited her to my home, sang the song in my voice, and she went away. A few days later, she again phoned saying that she wanted to listen to the same song again in my voice. When I continued getting her phones repeatedly for 3-4 times, then I began to smell a rat. So when she came to my residence a fourth time,
I sang the song as “main to ek BAAP hoon is BAAP se tu pyar na kar”. Here is that song in the voice of Mukesh, and its lyrics are by Qamar Jalalabadi.]

Song: Main to ek khwaab hoon (Himalay Ki God Mein)

Ab jo gaana aap sunne jaa rahe hain, usey maine chuna hai Samjhauta film se. Mere ek doctor dost hain jo ek bar mujhse aakar kehne lage ki mubaaraq ho aapka ek gaana main le gaya tha jise sunkar mera ek patient achchha ho gaya. Sach bhi hai is geet ka arth jo samajh jaaye uske liye jeevan kaafi aasaan ho jaata hai. Lataji ki awaaz mein suniye is geet ko.

[The next song that you are going to listen is one that I have picked from “samjhauta”. I have a doctor friend who once came to me and began to congratulate me saying that he had taken a song from me and one of his patients gt well after listening to this song.And truly it is such a song that if one understands its meaning then he may find life much more easy to live. Let us listen to this song in the voice of Lataji.]

Song: Samjhauta ghamon se karlo (Samjhauta)

Ab yeh mera bahut hi pasandida gaana, iske baare mein mujhe kuchh kehna hi naheen hai, sirf isey suniye, Indeevar ka likha huya.

[The song that follows is one that I just love. I do not want to say anything about this song. Just listen to it, which is written by Indeewar.]

Song: Chhod den saari duniya kisi ke liye (Saraswati Chandra)

Ab suniye film Kora Kagaz ka ek geet. Jab hum iske geet bana rahe the to kisi ne zyaada ummeed naheen kee thee. Par release ke baad kaafi lokpriya huya. Professor Hashmaq ne pehli dafaa kisi film mein gaane likhe. Suniye Kishore Kumar ki awaaz mein yeh geet.

[Now let us listen to this song from “Kora Kaaghaz”.When we were composing this song, we did not have much expectations from this song. But this song became very popular after it was released. Professor Hashmat wrote a song for a movie for the first time here. Let us listen to this song in the voice of Kishore Kumar.]

Song: Mera jeevan kora kaagaz kora hi reh gaya (Kora Kaaghaz)

Aur ab haal hi ki film Haath Ki Safaai ka ek pyara sa geet Lataji aur
Rafi sahab ki awaaz mein, isey likha hai Gulshan Bawra ne, suniye.

[Now let us listen to a lovely song in the voices of Lataji and Rafi saahab from a recent movie “Haath Ki Safaai”, it has been written by Gulshan Baawra. Here is the song]

Song: Waada karle saajna (Haath Ki Safaai)

To fauji bhaiyon, aaj maine aapko kuchh ayurvedic gaane sunwaaye, aapko pasand aaye honge, ab aap mujhe ijaazat deejiye, namaskaar.

[Well military brethrens, today I presented to you some ayurvedic songs. I hope you liked them. Now allow me to take your leave. Good bye.]
