Naseem Bano Chopra doesn't need any introduction to all you erudite
people on this forum as she has been
discussed here several times in reference to her enigmatic background
singing of the Mir ghazal in the
movie Pakeezah. I am referring to Ye Dhuan Kahan Se UthTa Hai when
Sahib Jaan is visiting Bibban and relating
the waqiya on the train about Salim slipping the "mele ho jayenge"
note between her toes.
There is a Mir ghazal here but unfortunately not this one.

I have posted her Buzm-e-Ghazal (1979) on www.bollywoodtorrents.me /
www.bwtorrents.com (old site)
Free Registeration Open For a Limited Time so hurry up.

Music is by Ustad Faiyyaz Ahmed Khan

1. Us Bazme Mujhe Nahin Banti Hayaa Kiye - Mirza Ghalib
2. Hum Samajhte Hai Azmaane Ko - Momin Khan Momin
3. Ai Kaash Woh Jalwaa Dikhane Ko Na Aate - Fayyaz Jaipuri
4. Dil Hi To Hai Na Sang-o-Khist - Mirza Ghalib
Note: Naseem Bano sings Jaan-o-Dil Aziz instead of Din-o-
Dil Aziz.
None of the 15 or so editions of Ghalib in my
possession have Jaan-o-Dil .....
5. Khat Mein Likhe Huye Ranjish Ke Kalaam Aate Hain - Dagh Dehlvi
6. Jeete Jee Kucha-e-Dildar Se Jaaya Na Gayaa - Mir Taqi Mi

Thanks a ton for posting these ghazals! Ever since I discovered the
identity of the mystery singer in 'Pakeezah', I had been trying to
find more of her music, but with no success till you posted these.

My expectations seem to have been heightened greatly by what I heard
of her in "Pakeezah" - while these ghazals are well sung, the spark
that is there in "dekh to dil ki jaa.n se" is not quite present here.
Also, her enunciation in these ghazals is somewhat affected
(reminiscent of Madhurani, although not quite as affected as hers).

Even with these caveats, these recordings are very valuable - and I
find that they tend to grow on one!

[Am taking the liberty of cross-posting to RMIM - there is likely to
be greater interest in this there rather than on RMIC! Have retained
the entire post above so RMIMers can see the relevant details.]

Thanks and warm regards,
Abhay

Abhay Bhai adaab,

Only recently I heard the Daag Dehlvi ghazals by Madhurani and quite
impressed by the quality of her singing. I believe she has another
album of Ghalib ghazals. I have been searching for the Ghalib ghazals
with no luck. Can you help? Thanks

To all those asking how to access the ghazals: go to

http://www.bollywoodtorrents.me

You need to sign up to download torrents from the site. You also have
to have a torrent manager on your computer. Once you have this set up,
search for "Naseem Bano Chopra" on the site and download the torrent
files that come up.

Hope this helps!

Warm regards,
Abhay

What about us not-so-erudite? Could someone provide some background
info?

Sadly, very little is known of this singer. Her identification as the
singer of "dekh to dil ki jaa.N se" in 'Pakeezah' came about because
Naushad's autobiography mentions it. I tried hunting a lot for her
music and for more information about her, but the only thing I found
was this article:

Dosto,

I have been able to download the 6 ghazals and 3 pictures. I can
convert them into MP3's and post them somewhere if there is a demand
for them.

I am not familiar with Madhurani's Daag ghazal but I have the
following of her ghazals on a cassettte ripped from an LP some 20 or
so years ago.
Laayi Hayat - Zauq
Asar Usko Zara - Momin
Ishq Mein Jee Ko - Mir
Dilko Sukunoon - Jigar
Zabt Apna - Fani Badayuni
Dayam Pada Hua - Ghalib

Samvel Bhai, Aadaab,

You have exactly what I have been looking for. That is her first LP
album. If it is not too much trouble, could you please rip the
cassette into WAV, MP3 or AAC file (whichever is convenient) and Email
to me. I will be grateful forever. If you want, I can send all the
Daag ghazals of Madhurani I have.
