The last song of the great lyricist Shailendra

- Tar-B-Tar-Hardwar Goswami

- Shailendra's dream was to make a film. But that dream bathed him in red water

Lo Keshan is the home of Shailendra, the famous lyricist of Hindi film. Time 19, Dev Anand-Vijay Anand, S.D. Burman is persuading Shailendra. The point is to write a song for his upcoming film 'Jewel Thief'. But Shailendra lets the needle say no. Shailendra insists that the song is a far cry but I am not in a position to write even a simple postcard. A lyricist whose only job is to write a song and if such a big star comes home and makes a request, he refuses! At a young age, Rajakpur listened to Shailendra's poem and asked him to write a song for the film, but he refused, saying, "Don't sell my poetry for films." The moment that people have been waiting for for years, they come in front of the same moment, no one says it ... Only a poet can have such courage and wisdom.

When the producer contacted him again a few days later to write the song, Shailendra said, "Tell Majrooh Sultanpuri and he will write." The songs of that time were excellent but the person was also excellent. The competition between the two songwriters at Filmfare is on, but in reality the human sensibilities in life are intact. Sahir Ludhianvi received the Filmfare 'Best Lyricist' award for 15 years. But Sahir said Shailendra was entitled to the award. Such a case is heartbreaking when there is a melody of values ​​in today's throat cutting competition. Shailendra, who was knocking on the door of depression, resorted to alcohol. Let's get back to what we said at the beginning. False yes due to much insistence of the creator. But when he hears the situation of the song, Shailendra says, 'Oh, this is the situation I am living in right now. Now I will definitely write the song. '

And then a memorable song of Hindi cinema was created ... Rula ke gaya sapna mera. In the film, the heroine's boat is rocking in the lake at midnight. Life seems dull and cruel. Jodi Shailendra writes the song with this whole thing. This is the last song of Shailendra. As if this song is not dedicated to death! This is the most favorite song of famous singer Suresh Wadkar.

His first song 'Barsaat Mein Hum Se Mile Tum Sajan' and his last song made us cry. After Shailendra got his first Filmfare Award in 19, his song car started running. Shailendra's original name was Shankardas Kesarilal. Date of birth 30-9-18 and death date. 13-12-17. Childhood was spent amidst much deprivation. He was reminiscing about his painful past while writing in some painful songs. Their language was enriched by living in different regions. Despite being very gifted in studies he could not go to college and had to take a job to run the house.

Interest in poetry since childhood. The straightforward and simple meaning of the poem is also reflected in his creations. He gave wonderful songs in pure Hindi when Urdu language was influential in Hindi cinema. His songs of folk dialect became famous in the enlightened class from man to man. Father ran a canteen in the Army Cantonment in Rawalpindi. Then came the cultural heritage and settled in Mathura.

The song 'Rula Ke Gaya ...' written for 'Jewel Thief' begins with Lata Mangeshkar's melody. Burmanda's music was awaited after the film 'Guide'. Giving heartbreaking music in this song, he proved again that he is an excellent composer. Everyone who raises a bundle of pain feels that this is my song. Initially, the heroine's stable boat indicates that she has stopped living. At the end of the song, the heroine, leaning against a rough tree, symbolizes her chaotic life.

The surprise of the hero and the cry of the heroine are well combined here. The light of Dev Anand and Vaijantimala's acting spreads even in the dark night. Foggy weather, a face in the water, darkness in and out of the water, etc. are signs of suffering. V. Artistic cinematography of the night ... what a thing! Vijay Anand's grandfather directing ...

The 19th American comedy film 'Jewel Thief' was also released. However, the two films have nothing in common except the title. Earlier, Saira Banu was approached for the heroine of the film but she did not accept the offer. All the songs of this film were hits but 'Rula Ke Gaya ...' leaves a different tension on the mind of the devotee. The film depicts the delicate moments of love between the mysterious Ratnachor and the Mumbai police. J. like this. Barot won the Filmfare Best Sound Award and Tanuja won the Best Supporting Award.

Shailendra's dream was to make a film. But that dream bathed him in red water.

He made the film 'Teesri Kasam' by taking the story 'Mare Gaye Gulfam' from the famous Hindi storyteller Phaniswarnath Renu's 'Thumri' story collection. Shailendra sang a super hit song like 'Sajan Re Jooth Mat Bolo Khuda Ke Paas Jaana Hai' to the music of Shankar Jaikishan. Remember the well-known poem of Minpiasi ... 'God will ask first, did you ask for someone's happiness or sorrow'? Going into a world full of pain, I wiped away someone's tears. What? ' It was a love story between a gamdia and a dancer. Shailendra wrote many songs for Rajakpur with open heart but Rajakpur did many tricks in the lead role of this film and the result was that the shooting of the film went on for a long time, he had to shoot again. Editing was also protracted and there was no release money so it was too late. The promotion did not go well in a dam-like situation on Dazya, as a result of which the film was beaten at the box office. Shailendra went into debt. After the 'third oath', he took the first oath that 'I will not make a film from now on.'

Thomas Carlyle says that ‘poetry is a musical idea’ Shailendra has planted suffering with social nisbat in the song. The song is based on a mountain raga. This raga has its roots in the Himalayan region. This raga brings color in the performance of thumri, ghazals and bhajans but here in this song it is like melting sugar in milk. Raag is a melodic structure, which evokes the heart touching sensation of the listeners. The song 'Rula Ke Gaya ...' also has a literary touch with ease. The situation of the film fits perfectly but it is fun even if you enjoy it independently.

The heroine is waiting for the morning i.e. waiting for happiness. The darkness of sorrow will be removed only if morning falls. Here the consonant of the word 'luntera' wanders in the sky of new meaning like a new consonant. The anguish of the Coronation period is inadvertently intertwined in this song ... In a song written by the film 'Patita', Shailendra himself writes that these are the sweetest songs that we sing in tune with pain.
