Kishore ( ani Dev ) - by S D Burman
kcp
There was one occassion when I heard the interview of Kishoreda in
which he was talking about SDB..and I really wondered what were SDB's
thoughts on Kishore !! and here is what I get....
I received one Anmol Khazana from one of my dear friend....in that I
got to read an interview of SD, in which SD speaks about Kishore ( and
Dev ) !!!! The interview is in Marathi...it came up in the Magazine's
November issue 1987...the actual interview was given
in 1966 to that same Magazine, in their Diwali Special of 1966. I would
be more than happy to translate it later on, to all of you ( or to
those interested ). Maybe some of my Marathi-understanding friends can
help me out to save my time ?
Some excerpts from that 1966 issue ( so many things to learn about SDB
and Kishore in such kind of interviews !! ) :
There is one Dhamakaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa info in it, too ( :P )

Let me give you the gist:
- Kishore is a great singer who could capture the spirit of the song
perfectly. His voice was suitable for all kinds of songs.
- Kishore was the perfect choice for Dev Anand; no other male singer,
expect Rafi to a limited extent, suited Dev. "gaataa rahe meraa dil" is
a perfect example: Dev himself seems to be singing. The song is the
greatest Lata-Kishore duet.
- Thanks to Kishore's obsession with acting, he was often not available
for song recordings; on these occasions, SDB had to make do with Rafi
(and occasionally Manna De and Hemant Kumar). For "Guide", too, KK was
available only for the duet and SDB had to use Rafi and Manna De for the
other songs.
- Kishore had declared he would not sing. Then, when "Teen Deviyan" was
in the works, he landed up at SDB's place and insisted he wanted to sing
the songs and was even ready to record them right there.
Warm regards,
Abhay

Tharla. Mandy Burmanchya "Manzil" madhye me Devsaathi

Ya "Jaal" madhil Hemant Kumarna Devsaathi Gaayilela
"Ye Raat..Sun Ja Dil Ki Daastaan" he gaana gaazla
khara pan padyavar hech gaane Devchya tondi khatkat
hote. Kaaran Hemant Kumarcha awaaz kahisa jaad,
bhaardast aslyane Devchya "gulaabi" vyaktimatvala to
shobhla nahi. Mhanunach me nantar Dev saathi Hemant
Kumarcha awaaz ghetla nahi.

maine Dev'ke liye Kishore ke alaawaa Rafi, Manna Dey,
Hemant Kumar inake'bhee aawaaj geeto'ke liye istamalaa
kiye. Mandy Burne inake "Manzil" me Dev'ke liye Manaa

padade ke upar yahee geet Dev'ke mukhe'par aatehee

---------
"Guide" mein Kishore Kumar-Lata Mangeshkar inhone
gaayaa huwaa gaanaa "gaataa rahe meraa dil tu hee
meree manzil" yah ek wilakshan geet bahut lokpriya hua.
digadarshak Vijay Anand inhone yeh geet apanee kalpana shakti ke bal
par padade par bahut achchhe dhang se khilaya. Dev-Vahidane is geet
mein ek doosre ko itanee bejod saath dee kee, premee yugal geeto mein
kaa yah gaanaa "masterpiece" ban gayaa. yah gaana maine jab padadepar
dekhaa tab muzhe lagaa, meree suron kaa sonaa ho gayaa hain.
----------------
Dev "Gaata Rahe" padyavar gaatana janu to swatahachya
galyatun - othatun gaatoy itka chapkhalpane Kishorecha awaaz Devla suit

---------
Dev ko "Gaata Rahe" padade par gaa dekh aisa lag raha tha ke maano woh
khud apne gale se, apne honthon se, gaa raha hai..itna perfect match ho
raha tha Kishore ka awaaz.
---------
Arthat jyaveli Kishore Devsaathi Gayila tya tya veli haach
anubhav aala. Kishorecha awaaz janu Dev saathich nirmaan zhalay asa

Tyaala gaanyapeksha abhinayachi hukki aalyavar to gaanyasaathi
aksharshaha shodhun saapdena tevha mala nailazaane Raficha awaaz
vaaprava laagla.
---------
Waise to har baar jab jab Kishore Dev ke liye gaaya, tab tab yahi
anubhav mila. Kishoreka awaaz maano Dev ke liye hi nirmaan hua hai,
aisa lag raha tha. Dev ke abhinay ki prakruti ( dhang ), uske
"dialogues" bolne ka tarika aur uske "personality" ke haal-chaal, ye
sab sochkar Kishoreka awaaz lena hi sahi nirnay hua. Isiliye jab jab
maine Dev ka film music dene ke liye liya, tab tab Kishore hi ke awaaz
ka istemaal kiya. Lekin Kishore ne apne swabhaav ka rang ( jo uske
dimaag mein aaye wohi karna ) mujhe bhi kai baar ikhaaya. Use gaanon se
zyaada jab abhinay karne ki soojhi, tab woh
gaaneke liye dhoondne se bhi na milta, tab mujhe Rafi ka awaaz ka
istemaal karna pada.

Kishore ka ek bahot hi achcha gun hai, woh hai uske gaane ki samajh.

Kishoreka ek avgun matlab uske swabhaav - jo jee mein aaye wohi karna.
Usi swabhaav ke kaaran usne apna aur uske zariye poore film sangeet ka
bada nuksaan kiya hai. Woh kya karega iska bilkul andaaz na hone se
bahot saare producers, aur music directors use taalne lage. Kishore
peechhe reh gaya. "Race" ka mahatva usne nahin pehchaana. Uske isi
swabhaav ka mujhe bhe achha khaasa anubhav aaya hai. Main use daantne
se bhi kuchh faraq nahin pada. Dev ke liye lekin uska yeh swabhav woh
kaabu mein rakh kar uske gaane gaaneke
liye bhaagkar aata ! Kishore ne beech mein bilkul na gaane ka fazool
nirnay liya tha..."Teen Deviyaan" us samay mere haath mein tha. Aur ye
swabhaav waale mahashay ek din mere ghar par aa pahonche.

Kishore ne kaha "Dada, Dev ke liye main hi gaane waala hoon"
Maine kaha "Lekin maine suna hai ke tumne gaana chhod diya hai. Aur
tumhara bharosa kaise rakhun main?" Tab Kishore mere paanv pakadkar
bola "Dada, abhi ke abhi gaana gaa loon kya?"
Kishore mein ye bachhe ka man dekhkar meri aankhein aansuon se behne
lagi...

Hmm. I wonder ... does the original Marathi line mentioning
Rafi in comparison with Kishore really say what the latter half
of your translation says? The line in question is this --
"Pan Kishoreshivaay phakta Rafichaach awaaz Devla Yogya Tharla."
Now, I don't claim to know Marathi at all, but this simply
seems to be saying,
par Kishore ke siwaaye sirf Rafi hii kii aawaaz Dev ke liye
yogya thii
(unless I am quite mistaken in thinking that 'phakta' means
the same thing as the Urdu 'faqat').
Which makes inquiring minds wonder: where did you get that
(uncharitable) bit about "to a limited extent" from? In the
original article, Hemant Kumar's is the only voice I found
SDB comparing unfavorably to Kishore's (inasmuch as its
suitability to Dev's face).
BTW, *all* the other translations posted in this thread
seem to have skipped translating this Rafi v/s Kishore
sentence, piquing my curiosity considerably.

You are quite right in the context of that sentence, Ravindra. I wasn't
attempting a line by line translation but just trying to capture the
sentiments expressed in the article. The overall pitch of the article is
that Kishore suited Dev best; even this sentence starts with "other than
Kishore...". The "...to a limited extent" was my interpretation, not
SDB's exact words.
Warm regards,
Abhay
