“Mohini” (1957) was directed by Ramanlal B Desai for Navkala Niketan. The movie had Shahu Modak, Nirupa Roy, Krishna Kumari, Madan Puri, Shakila, Roop Kumar, Sunder etc in it.
Today (12 december 2016) is the 89rd birth anniversary of N Datta(12 december 1927- 30 december 1988). On this occasion, here is a song from “Mohini” (1957). The song is sung by Shamshad Begam and it is picturised on a pretty looking Shakeela wooing a gentleman whom I am unable to identify. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify him
Raja Mehdi Ali Khan is the lyricist of this song. Music is composed by N Datta.
When I heard this song, I thought that the lady had arrived at Neemtalla, a locality of Kolkata, to meet her beloved. It turns out that she has come to meet her beloved under a Neem tree instead. Who knows, that Kolkata suburb could well have been named by a similar process.
Song-Kahaan chale ho ji (Mohini)(1957) Singer-Shamshad Begam, Lyrics-Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD-N Datta
Lyrics
ho o o
kahaan chale ji
kahaan chale ho ji pyaar mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
kahaan chale ho ji pyaar mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
mujhe chhod ke jaate ho ji bade ho bewafa
mujhe chhod ke jaate ho ji bade ho bewafa
galey daal baahen roungi
ho jaaungi khafa
galey daal baahen roungi
ho jaaungi khafa
na saataao mujhe
na sataao mujhe ishq mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
kahaan chale ho ji pyaar mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
meri baat meri jhuki jhuki aankhon ne kahi
meri baat meri jhuki jhuki aankhon ne kahi
tumhen pyaar kar ke haaye main kahin ki na rahi
tumhen pyaar kar ke haaye main kahin ki na rahi
kahin ki na rahi
tumhen kya mila ji
tumhen kya mila ji
shamma ko parwaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
kahaan chale ho ji pyaar mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
mere hothon ki muskaan piya tere liye hai
mere hothon ki muskaan piya tere liye hai
mera dil meri jaan piya tere liye hai
mera dil meri jaan piya tere liye hai
piya tere liye hai
chheen liya mujhe
chheen liya mujhe duniya se begaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
kahaan chale ho ji pyaar mein deewaana kar ke
main to neem tale aa gayi bahaana kar ke
kahaan chale ji
