Andaaz mera mastana...




"Andaaz mera mastana" is filmed on Meena Kumari and Raj Kumar, depicting a charity show by the hospital staff, Raj Kumar playing the role of the doctor and Meena Kumari and the other dancers are the nurses...the set is reminiscent of a scene from "Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam "...

Omar Khayyam (May 18, 1048, Neishapur, Iran -December 4, 1122, Neishapur, Iran) was a renowned Persian poet, mathematician, physicist, philosopher and astronomer.

Shankar-Jaikishen won the Filmfare award for the "best music director(s)" for "Dil apna aur preet parayee". Other nominees were Naushad for "Mughal-e-Azam" and Ravi for "Chaudhvin ka chaand".


Movie: Dil apna aur preet parayee (1960)
Music: Shankar-Jaikishan
Lyrics: Shailendra
Original singers: Lata Mangeshkar and chorus

One of the sweetest songs rendered by you, Didi. Just love the way you're hooting in between. I just felt in the opening, there was a slight pitching problem but I ignored it. It's negligible and after that, you're just flowing through the lines. In the end, I felt that it could have been a little slower signifying the end of the song. All in all, great attempt and much better than Lata Didi's interpretation.

Paras: takhlina! the "shokhi" of the song came out very well. I can't think of how to translate 'shokhi' into english.

This is indeed one of your most beautiful renditions! I have to commend you on your song selection again! Such were the songs that induce true happiness ... difficult to find in today's hasty music in which there is less and less place for humanly emotions!

Please continue the good work!

Paras:Wow!Clean,precise rendition!This is another one of your gems.I somehow used to think that the word was 'Saahleena'' instead of takhleena whenever I heard the original. :P Meri aankhen aur kaan ab jaa kar khule. :D

Paras Didi ("Andaaz Mera Mastana"):Wow!! Definitely one of your best renditions... you had great control of your voice throughout the song. Sur and taal were right on the money, and I loved the way you sang "Takhaleena"! You have put great life into this song... truly a mind-blowing rendition of this great number!
