Bin Badal Barsaat


Let’s start the day with N C Sippy and Uttam Kumar’s 1963 film *”Bin Badal Barsaat”* directed by Jyoti Swaroop. 

The film starred Biswajeet & Asha Parekh. They were supported by Nish Kohli, Padma Chavan, Bela Bose and Mehmood. 

It was always said that  Biswajeet was considered  a poor man’s Shammi Kapoor, with Biswajeet playing similar kinds of roles with similar kinds of music.

But Biswajeet had more to him than just playing Shammi Kapoor kind of roles. He also played lead roles in suspense movies/ romantic movies which had a different kind of music- soft, melodious, soothing, sensuous kind of music.

Such music was usually composed by Hemant Kumar and when one looks at a list of these songs in Biswajeet movies, one finds that the list of truly immortal songs from his movies reads like a whose who of the very best songs of its genre of soft sensuous, romantic songs.

In fact, If you look back,  actors like Biswajeet, Pradeep Kumar etc often got more outstanding songs than many bigger and better stars of that era just because they happen to act in movies with Hemant Kumar’s music.

This is certainly true for Biswajeet in this movie. This is a lovely duet where Lata joins Hemant Kumar and the result ? Many people call it the best song of its genre but I myself say that this song is as magical as a song can get. Extemely sensuous, extremely romantic. The singers have done a great job, and Shakeel Badayuni has shown throughout the songs of this movie how precisely and coherently he could capture the feelings of two people in love with each other.

This song was picturised on Biswajeet and Asha Parekh. It is a magical song indeed.

*”Ek baar zara phir kah do”* Lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni, composed by Hemant Kumar and sung by Hemant Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar 🎤🎵🎶🎧
