I had promised avid readers (what, you?) that I would come up with a piece on piano songs from Hindi films. I generally keep my promises (unless I break them), and here is proof. I delved into my (fading) memory, did some research with the aid of that great gift to researchers (starts with a G) and compiled a list. I think it is about 95% right (5% error is permissible, remember?).
1. Chalo ek bar phir se ajnabi ban jaayen...from Gumrah.
2. Patthar ke sanam, tujhe humne ..title song from the movie.
3. Pyar diwana hota hai mastana hota hai...delight from Kati Patang
4. Dost dost na raha...Sangam..there is a hilarious scene in the film (not related to the sombre song sequence), where one of the characters leans at an acute angle for a prolonged length of time.
5. Kaun aaya ke nigahon mein chamak jaag uthi..Waqt..a female on the piano in this case.
6. Dheere dheere machal ae dile beqaraar..Anupama, with a wonderful tune. What a song!
7. Khwab ho tum ya koi haqeeqat, kaun ho tum batlao..SD Burman tune from Teen Deviyaan..Dev Anand on piano..khallas!
8. Uljhan suljhe na, rasta soojhe na, jaoon kahan main, jaoon kahan,..so sang Zeenat in Dundh, a neat murder mystery.
