My 100th Review - Dedicated to Ghazals
By: jmathur | Nov 27, 2010 07:54 AM (Updated Nov 29, 2010 06:07 AM)
I am not only a great music lover but also a great lover of poetry and Shaayari. Ghazal is a unique form of poetry containing the essential features of Radeef, Kaafia and fixed meter in all the SHERs.
The literal meaning of Ghazal is the (painful) voice of (wounded) female deer (Ghazaala). Bollywood has gifted people like me a treasure of beautiful Ghazals and Nazms.Hence I dedicated my 100th review on MS to Ghazals from Hindi movies. The list is subjective because every lover of Ghazals can prepare his / her list as per his / her choice.
I have excluded two classic Ghazals of legendary Ghazal singer - Ghulam Ali in this list as their shorter versions have only been included in the movies concerned. They are : 1. Chupke Chupke Raat Din Aansoo Bahaana Yaad Hai (Nikaah - 1982) and 2. Chamakte Chaand Ko Toota Hua Taara Bana Daala (Aawaargi - 1990).
I have also not included some great Ghazals in this list viz. Kabhi Kisi Ko Muqammal Jahaan Nahin Milta (Ahista Ahista - 1981), Sansar Ki Har Shay Ka Itna Hi Fasana Hai (Dhund - 1973), Na Munh Chhupa Ke Jiyo (Humraaz - 1967), Mile Na Phool To Kaanto Se Dosti Kar Li (Anokhi Raat - 1968), Kisi Ki Yaad Mein Duniya Ko Hain Bhulaye Huye (Jahanaara - 1964), Yeh Kya Jagah Hai Doston (Umrao Jaan - 1981), Teri Yaad Dil Se Bhulane Chala Hoon (Hariyali Aur Raasta - 1962), Aah Ko Chaahiye Ek Umr Asar Hone Tak (Mirza Ghalib - 1954) etc. because I have covered them in my reviews of best Hindi movie songs and best philosophical songs.
My list of top twenty filmi Ghazals is as follows :
1. Justujoo Jiski Thi Usko To Na Paaya Humne (Umrao Jaan - 1981) : In my view, one of the best Ghazals of Asha Ji, penned by Sheheryaar and composed by Khayyam, picturized on Rekha in the title role. It is an example of highly meaningful and touching poetry. It's the Ghazal which is the closest to my heart.
2. Ye Na Thi Hamaari Kismet Ki Visaal-E-Yaar Hota (Mirza Ghalib - 1954) : Mirza Ghalib's immortal Ghazal, composed by Ghulam Mohammed which has been sung emotionally and performed upon masterly by the legendary singer-actress Suraiya.
3. Dil-E-Naadan Tujhe Hua Kya Hai (Mirza Ghalib - 1954) : Another classic Ghazal of the legendary Shaayar from this movie which is a memorable duet of Talat Mahmood and Suraiya. It's been picturized on Bharat Bhooshan and Suraiya in the movie.
4. Nukta Cheen Hai Gham-E-Dil Usko Sunaaye Na Bane (Mirza Ghalib - 1954) : Another marvel from the pen of Ghalib, presented to the lovers of Shaayari by Ghulam Mohammed (composition) and Suraiya (singing and acting).
5. Seene Mein Jalan Aankhon Mein Toofan Sa Kyon Hai (Gaman - 1978) : An outstanding Ghazal authored by Sheheryaar, composed by Jaidev ,sung by Suresh Wadkar and picturized on Farooq Sheikh.
6. Kisi Nazar Ko Tera Intezaar Aaj Bhi Hai (Aitbaar - 1985) : An excellent Ghazal which I relate to. It's been sung jointly by Bhupinder and Asha, penned by Hasan Kamaal and composed by Bappi Lahiri. Suresh Oberai and Dimple Kapadia have performed beautifully on it in the movie.
7. Zinda Hoon Iss Tarah Ki Gham-E-Zindagi Nahin (Aag - 1948) : Mukesh's highly emotional Ghazal, picturized on Raj Kapoor in his maiden directorial venture, penned by Behzad Lucknavi and composed by Ram Ganguly.

9. Hum Dard Ke Maaron Ka Itna Hi Fasaana Hai (Daag - 1952) : Talat Mahmood's famous Ghazal, picturized on Dilip Kumar, penned by Shailendra and composed by Shankar-Jaikishan.

13. Koi Saaghar Dil Ko Behlaata Nahin (Dil Diya Dard Liya - 1966) : Rafi's classic Ghazal combined with the brilliant performance of the Tragedy King, Dilip Kumar. Naushad has composed the touching Shaayari of Shakeel Badayuni.
14. Uthaye Ja Unke Sitam Aur Jiye Ja (Andaz - 1949) : Lata's classic Ghazal on which Nargis has delivered a memorable performance in the movie. Naushad has composed the Ghazal of Shakeel Badayuni.
15. Kabhi Khud Pe Kabhi Haalat Pe Rona Aaya (Hum Dono - 1961) : A very very realistic Ghazal of Rafi combined with a touching performance by Dev Anand in the movie. Jaidev has composed the straight-from-the-heart words of Sahir Ludhiyanvi.
16. Tang Aa Chuke Hain Kashamkash-E-Zindagi Se Hum (Pyaasa - 1957) : A touching Ghazal emerging from the depth of the heart of the Shaayar, Sahir Ludhiyanvi which has been picturized on Guru Dutt, the Shaayar hero of this movie. Rafi has given voice to the composition of S.D. Burman.
17. Jurm-E-Ulfat Pe Hamen Log Saza Dete Hain (Taj Mahal - 1963) : A very small but very very meaningful Ghazal which is in fact an underrated song in this classic album. Beena Roy has performed on the voice of Lata and Roshan has composed the words of Sahir.
18. Dushman Na Kare Dost Ne Woh Kaam Kiya Hai (Aakhir Kyon - 1985) : A highly admirable Ghazal of Lata, picturized on Smita Patil. Rajesh Roshan has composed the words of Indeevar.

3. Dil Cheez Kya Hai Aap Meri Jaan Leejiye (Umrao Jaan - 1981) : The same team presents another gem to the Shaayari-lovers.
4. Jhuki Jhuki Si Nazar Beqaraar Hai Ki Nahin (Arth - 1983) : Jagjeet Singh's classic Ghazal picturized on Raj Kiran who sings it for Shabaana Aazmi in the movie. It's been penned by Shabaana's father, Kaifi Aazmi and composer is Jagjeet Singh himself.
