        Song: Kahan Ho Tum Zaraa Awaaz Do, Ham Yaad Karate Hain
                Kabhi Bharate  Hain  Aanhe  Aur  Kabhi  Phariyaad
Karate Hain

        Film:   Malhaar (1951)
        Music:  Roshan
        Lyrics: Kaif Irfani
        Singer: Lata Mangeshkar, Mukesh
        *ing:   C Arjun, ?

Mukesh, became producer with this film. It was produced under the
banner of Darling Films. Film flopped on box-office, but became a
great musical hit.  Team  of  Roshan-Mukesh-Kaif  Irfani-Indeevar
brought  to  us  some most melodious songs ever. This song, is my
favourite from the film.

Besides, Indeevar wrote his first hit 'Bade Armaano Se Rakha  Hai
Balam'. I love "Ik Baar Agar Tu Kehde' (penned by Kaif) over this
one for it's softness. Lata and Mukesh are very sweet.

Lata brought to us title song and two more solos

        'Muhobat Ki Kismat Banane Se Pehle Zamaane  Ke  Malik  Tu
Roya To Hoga' and
        'Koi To Sune Mere Gam Ka  Fasaana,  Kahin  Maar  Dale  Na
Zalim Zamaana'

Mukesh sung two solos: first, then popular and now  obscure  'Dil
Tuze  Diya  Tha  Rakhne  Ko'  and  now  popular 'Tara Tute Duniya
Dekhe'. I rate 'Dil Tuze Diya Tha' as one of Mukesh's best. Flute
notes are very good.

Well, that completes journey through December 1996. Wishing you a
happy  1997,  where ATMJH will, hopefully, continue to bring more
songs.
