From the film ‘City lights’ which depicts love with depth & character. Featuring the real couple, Rajkummar Rao & Patralekha going through hardships in a city. Arijit Singh is the flavour of the new age. This is one of the songs that made him what he is today.
Muskurane ki wajah tum ho.. Gungunane ki wajah tum ho… Jiya jaye na jaye na … O re piya re… the first time you hear the song, yah it’s good. As you hear it again it remains in the mind & later it grows on you.
Ore piya… from ‘Nach le’ has the same effect. When you see or hear it in the movie it is just good but later it becomes part of you.
O re lamhe tu kahin mat jaa.. Ho sake to umr bhar tham ja.. It is like the old Marathi song… Jivanat hi ghadi ashich rahu de.. we know this moment is going to pass & yet have this expectation that it will be there, just there… never going to end.
Dhoop aaye toh, chhaanv tum laana…Khwahishon ki baarishon mein… bheeg sang jaana… there is a demand. Bring me the shadow when I need in the hot sun blazing. Another song… Zindagi dhoop tum ghana saaya.. in ‘Saath Saath’ Farooq Sheikh is head over heels for Dipti Naval & says You are the shadow in my life…! How concepts change & the dynamic differs.
Could it be … Chhaav tum banna… Be my shadow or be the shadow for me. Better yet be the shade for me. That Urdu word, Chhav has no equal in English. It gets lost in translation.
Jo mile usme kaat lenge hum… thodi khushiyan, thode aansu baant lenge hum… now you are right. This equality is what I personally like, just love. Why should a relationship be a burden? Another song, …Baat lenge hum adha adha..Yeh wada raha.. Jaan ki kasam ,sach kehte hai hum Khushi ho ya gum baat lenge hum adha adha…from film ‘Aazad’ with Dharmendra- Hema malini ,the hit jodi for yester years.
Muskurane ki wajah tum ho… For a face this beautiful I like to smile or better it brings a smile on my face… To elevate the mood & to be an inspiration to some one I feel is the highest thing you can do. With the stresses around people are moving with serious faces, why not improve the face quality, life quality & generally the mood around?
