Sharaabi (1984) was Prakash Mehra's last hit with Amitabh, the other movies being Zanjeer, Hera Pheri, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Laawaris and Namak Halal. The story is loosely based on "Arthur" starring Dudley Moore. It is the story of a rich workaholic father, a son who turns alcoholic and finds love on "the other side of the tracks".
Jaya Pradha's dances and Bappi Lahiri's music(Filmfare Best Music Director Award1985) are the other highlights of this movie.
Azam is a very versatile singer. I thank him for asking me to sing these two duets with him.

Really enjoyed both the songs! "Intehaa" is one of my favorite Asha-Kishore duets. Loved the precision with which u sang both the songs and hats off to u for the amazing expressions!
Can never forget this movie and the songs (and even some dialogues like moochein ho tho nathoolal jaisi :)).
Enjoyed listening to both these songs in your voices. Very nicely done!
Inteha ho gayi .... was always the first choice for letter E during antakshari :) Liked both the songs sung by you. Not right to compare the two songs but I liked Mujhe Nau lakha more ..:)
Paras,
Both the songs are nicely rendered and enjoyed listening them. Liked "Mujhe Nau Lakha" more and Azam's finishing with that fuuny KishoDa laugh in "Intehaa ho gayee" Wonderful selection and nicely done.
Happy Holidays!
Liked both the songs. Mujhe Naulakha is a difficult song. I heard it for the first time. Azam has a nice voice.
Have been listening to and enjoyed all your other songs too!
Intehaa ho gayee.....
Azam, one more time you have demonstrated excellent versatility as singer. Enjoyed listening to this number after a long time, especially the unusual ending! Paras, Asha's songs suit your voice very well. Well sung duet.
Mujhe Naulakha.....
Paras you captured the mood and the rhythm of this very typical number from Amitabh's movie. Azam, Bahot Khoob! I loved the aalap and hurkaten. Well done! -----Mala
Paras and Azam...
Excellent singing by you both. What a choice of songs..
Mujhe nau lakha...Hearing a cover version of this song for the first time.Liked it.

Azam bhai & Paras,

Really liked the songs! They are great! =)
Inteha ho gayi..what a lovely song..i think nobody i know of can sing this as perfectly as Khan sahab..Terrific...i am spellbound!Paras you were soooper in this!Lovvved your singing!
Mujhe Naulakha:Nice song selection..Paras your voice is beautiful and is apt for this song...But for a few places which i thought were shaky..this was fine..In the higher notes..were you trying to control your voice? you should let it go and sing your heart out..you are a splendid singer anyway!Azam khan was at his bestesssst best in this...BRILLIANT!!!This is what i call as versatility!Kudos to you guys!
I enjoyed all your songs and aarti very much

Thanks Smitha, Nandita, Pravin and NVK.
Thanks Dinesh, Mala, Jitendra ji and Babar Sahab for your support.
Irfan, I am so happy that you visited my blog. I am impressed that you have blog too!
Vishu didi...I am glad that you finally could listen to the songs.
Thanks Sudhathee for your keen observations and generous compliments. Both the songs were unknown to me. I fell in love with "Intehaa" the minute I heard it. "Mujhe Naulakha" is Azam's favorite song...he knows every note of that song . The project was postponed so many times(more than Kamal Amrohi's "Pakeezah"), as we always had something more pressing to do. But knowing how much he liked these songs, I made the last dash for the finish line. I reck'on I got the "Silver", he ran away with the "Gold"...Oops!
as a team..both of you got the gold here..:) Am looking forward for more songs Paras..this is one blogspace i am going to frequently visit!:)
Thanks Sudhathee, I always look forward to your input.
Dosto, aap sab ka bohat shukria! Your comments always mean a lot to me. I always have and always will cherish them.
I also want to take a moment to thank Paras for being persistant on completing these projects. These projects were sitting on the back burner for almost a year. Without her help on mixing, suggestions on details, and above all, encouragement I could not have enjoyed the finished songs posted here with your wonderful comments.
Sudhathee, thanks for your sincere comments and suggestions! And you are absolutely right that whatever reward comes, it is achieved "as a team".
Enjoyed both the songs Paras didi. Very clean and precise singing !!
Loved your singing in Mujhe Naulakha ! The way you have carried all the variations is brilliant !
Azam has done a great job with both songs !! Loved his expressions of a 'sharabi' in Intehaa ho gayee..
Keep it up !
Thanks Bharti. I am glad you liked the songs.
Thank you all for listening to these two (long) songs and your sincere input.
Thanks Azam for asking me to try these two very different songs. You have done a great job...I like it better in "Intehaa".
Sorry to be late here ...glad that I made it now ...excellent rendition ...by both of you...great expressions ...very nashila rendition.:-)
I have absolutely no idea how I missed these two songs by you & Azam.
Liked them both, can't pick my favorite, because both were sung very well. The amount of variations, nuances, harkatein, murkhis, feelings you guys poured in, it makes a difficult task to pick the most favorite. The perfection of Azam's sargam in Naulakkha amazes me every time I listen to it. You emoted Asha Ji's style in both songs very well.
Last but never the least, I am quite impressed with your versatile singing.
