        Song: Manzi`l Kahaan Meri, Gulshan Kahaan Mera
                Main Ka~~un Hun Kya~  Hu~n,  Kahan  Khoya  Jahaan
Mera

        Film:   Miss Mala (1954)
        Music:  Chitragupta
        Lyrics: Rajendrakrishna?
        Singer: Kishor Kumar
        *ing:   Kishor Kumar, Vyjantimala?

A very good song. Dada Barman, had picked and  nurtured,  a  very
valuable  gem.   Result:  Some beautiful songs by Kishor Kumar. A
very melodious song. Sr Barman, has used right mix  of  orchestra
for  interludes  comprising  mainly  a  band of violin. Otherwise
everywhere it's only Kishor, who  makes  his  presence  felt  all
along. All Kishor fans should really love to have this gem. (IMO,
he hasn't plenty, from this  period.)  I  find  him  better  than
'Dukhi  Man  Mere'  in  this  song, when comparing two sad Kishor
solos, under Sachin Dev Barman.

I have heard only one song from the movie. It's a typical  Kishor
and Always-Fabulous Geeta Roy affair:

        'Do Dil Chupke-Chupke Nain Milaaye
                Duniya Wale Dande Leke Pichhe-Pichhe Aaye'

I am sure both the singers would have  sung  more  songs  in  the
film; duets as well as solos.
