Unreleased Song - Pucho Jara Kis Liye Aayi Hai | Pancham and Lata

Another special gift from #Pancham da's childhood friend Badal and Mili Bhattacharya ji's family and Panchammagic, Pune.

Panchammagic, Pune was fortunate to have access to some of Pancham da's spools which Mili di preserved very carefully.

Today, on Pancham da's 84th birthday, Panchammagic is releasing yet another unreleased gem of Rahul Devburman. The song may have been recorded for Hrishikesh Mukharji's movie 'Bandagi' which was announced 1965-66. The movie later became 'Phir Kab Milogi'.

If you listen to this composition carefully you can easily link it to, Film 'Phir Kab Milogi's song - Kahi Karati Hogi. However wait... Lata ji' s la la la la in second interlude 'may' take you to another song - Jeene ka din, mar jaane ka mausam hai from 'Gomti ke kinare' . 😊

Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar ji' s special velvety voice in 1960's decade is like 'Chaar Chand' to this composition. The way she has caressed each word and each note is simply marvelous.

As usual Pancham da's arrangement has different style considering that era. Very short first interlude music, unexpected antara cross line followed by whispering of Lata ji, sudden tempo change in third music interlude followed by few Sitar notes (midas touch) are some of the finer points which strikes out prominently.

In Marathi we say Lata ji used to render 'ठेवणीतला आवाज' (special treatment) for some special compositions. This song is surely one of them.

Happy Birthday #Pancham!
