Beqarar dil tu gaye ja - Homage to Kishore Kumar (song from Door Ka Rahi a 1971 film)

Beqarar dil tu gaye ja (Door Ka Rahi 1971 film)

#Kishorekumar #Doorkarahi #beqarardil

“Beqarar dil, tu gaye ja” is a super hit song from the Hindi film Door Ka Rahi (1971) which was produced and directed by the multi-talented genius that was Kishore Kumar. He wrote the story, did the screenplay, composed the music and also acted in a lead role. The film also stars Tanuja and Ashok Kumar.

“The film is a great depiction of the directorial abilities of Kishore Kumar and his vision of the eternal world. The film strives to deliver a very strong message to humanity using the simplest possible language. Door Ka Rahi is also all about Kishore Kumar's philosophy of life. It depicts with brilliance Kishore Kumar's inner self and the way he construed life in all its ups and downs. The movie is a metaphor that depicts the endless eternal journey of the human soul that is unaware of its destiny and has to continue with its journey in the quest of the eternal unknown. Kishore-da's all-time favourite "Panthi hoon main us path ka aanth nahi jiska" and "Chalti chali je Zindagi ki safar" are the manifestation of his eternal quest. His exuberance and flamboyance were the veil for this inwardly lonely person. His loneliness and brilliance found expression in Door Ka Rahi and Door Vadiyon Mein Kahin.”
