Woh Apni Yaad Dilane Ko Eik Ishq ki duniya Chor Gaye – Jugnu



Well I couldn't help posting this on Speak Your Mind. In fact I was thinking that reporting & giving your views on meaningless happenings is so shitty. I believe blogging is all about having fun & I have been thinking it’s high time I should start blogging as I did it in the beginning.

Anyhow, this is such a fun song. Dilip Kumar looks extremely janoo in it. In fact in the entire movie, he looked beautiful, which was inevitable as his heroine was an aunty named Noor Jehan. Just like Rakhee Gulzar, even Noor Jehan never looked young. However in this song, you could see Rafi sahab. They have created the right sort of atmosphere. Each guy has a different personality. This song rocks to this day! Babur, Tariq bhaijan, Z & I had so much fun watching & listening to it in the late 80s.

Btw, Jugnu was released in 1947 & it was produced & directed by Noor Jehan's husband Shaukat Hussain Rizvi. This film was the first major hit of Dilip Kumar. I never had the courage to see the movie as I didn’t like Noor Jehan aunty even though Ammi Papa saw it a number of times.

Well I've always liked these lines:

'Muflis thay Janab-e-Majno bhi, suntay hain jab un ki maut ayi,
Paaket say na nikli eik payee, Laila ka woh khutta chor gaye. '
