And jeetendra, who takes it on himself to nurse her back to life, is the person who was responsible for the accident, though hema doesn't know it (since she cant see him).<BR/>So this song is like an explanation of the plot, the theme song, if you will...each character singing out his/her position.<BR/>This movie has another excellent semi-classical song by kishore-da - "jaane kya soch kar" (which i think is yaman, any analysis appreciated)<BR/>and one by bhupinder which goes "meethe bol bole"...<BR/>Anyways, nice choice, aakarsh! keep it coming!Sketchy Selfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01317624910267305828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13547794.post-1124282590783829692005-08-17T18:13:00.000+05:302005-08-17T18:13:00.000+05:30kedar, u got the story wrong. Kinaara's story is d...kedar, u got the story wrong. Kinaara's story is different.Jeetendra recovers from an accident and meets Hema. Hema is yet to come to terms with the death of her beloved,Dharmendra(he appears only in flashback scenes). Jeetndra discovers that he is responsible for dharmendra's death(that accident from which he recovers). Jeetendra eventually falls in love with hema but she hates him after knowing what he has done.what more! she loses her eye-sight also becoz of him (accidental push). interesting story. <BR/>all songs are gems. they will follow in this blog very soon.Aakarshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943886586244410709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13547794.post-1124260111774097652005-08-17T11:58:00.000+05:302005-08-17T11:58:00.000+05:30errata: gar yaad rahe: g3-r2-g3-r2-s (the first g ...errata: gar yaad rahe: g3-r2-g3-r2-s (the first g being elongated)Gandaragolakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364773312144169635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13547794.post-1124252285238278752005-08-17T09:48:00.000+05:302005-08-17T09:48:00.000+05:30this was one of those songs most northie junta fro...this was one of those songs most northie junta from CBIT didnt know, and I somehow knew it.. though not completely. This was a time when I knew I liied some songs so very much, but didnt know why... (I found a lot later most of them were yamans or hamsadhvanis). <BR/><BR/>I remember this was from a film where a woman has a gruesome accident with a lorry filled with some acid and her face had to be re-structured using plastic surgery...a case of lost identity<BR/><BR/>To add to the melodrama, the woman was going to meet her lost son after many years and now her face is changed, and she works as a maid in her son's house or something like that...<BR/><BR/>whatever the story, the song is really great...Let me try to analyse from melodic perspective... perhaps junta could add to it:<BR/>Tts based (mostly) on ragas yaman (kalyani) and hamsadhvani...<BR/><BR/> the first line goes --p-m2-r2-m2-[g3]->r2-s...(gamaka on g3)<BR/><BR/>"meri awaz hee pechchaan hai" is where the talent of RD is... this one moves like hamsadhvani-- <BR/>meri awaz hee <BR/>g3-p-n3-R2-s(-n3-p-r2)-- a fast gamaka downwards.<BR/><BR/>pechchaan hai<BR/>g3-p-g3-r2-s-r2<BR/><BR/>and then beautifully for "gar yaad rahe" p-r2-g3-r2-s (with an elongated g3). An important ingredient in defining yaman is the movement from p to r2.<BR/><BR/>the antara is bit more difficult to decode... shades of hamsadhvani bhoopali before sliding back into proper hamsadhvani. <BR/><BR/>the pakhawaj part that u mentioned is really awesome!!and the yamanic sitar to go with it... nothing more needed!Gandaragolakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364773312144169635noreply@blogger.com
