Rafi Sb – In The Seventies – 10

(1975 – Duet)
One more year, and one more delectable duet to listen to. The film is ‘Lafange’ from 1975. This film also makes its debut on this blog today.
The words are from the pen of Anand Bakshi and the music is by Laxmikant Pyaarelal. The lyricist and the music director were in the peak of their careers and were counted amongst the top in their respective fields at that time. Together they have created this lovely duet, in which Asha ji joins Rafi Sb in the rendering.
On screen, the song is picturized on Mumtaz and Randhir Kapoor. The visual is somewhat of a disappointment. The persona of Randhir Kapoor just does not seem to jell with the tone and the emotions of this song. Is the director required to share the blame? Maybe so. Randhir’s lines start with a brief alaap. And of all the things, one sees him running across the green holding a flower in his hand. Now that is a most unlikely way in which an alaap is to be presented. After that, the feeling in mind is – just close the eyes and listen to the audio :).
On screen antics notwithstanding, this is another of those memorable duets that have stayed in the mind since the radio listening days. Just the mukhdaa itself steals away the heart – “Ib Lagan Lagi Kya Karna, Ib Lagan Lagi”.
Listen and enjoy.
