Although I couldn't participate in this quiz, I rem. similar Q being asked on
RMIM more than a year back... In addition to the above singers, it had

e) Hemant Kumar and
f) Talat Mehmood

in the list...

The answer at that time was Bharat Bhushan and Dev Anand. All the above singers
have sung for them.... I think the correct answer was given by someone called
Hussain... I'm afraid I don't rem. the exact name... but, judging from the
answers of this quiz, there can be one more addition...


>Shammi Kapoor
>
>Kishore Kumar: Saat saheliyan khari khari (Vidhaata)
>Mohd. Rafi : YaHooo.. (Junglee)
>Mukesh : Duniya walo se door (Ujala)
>Manna Dey : Chhaam chham baje re payaliya (Jaane Anjaane)

Did Hemant sing for Shammi Kaps ? If so, we can add him to the list.. Talat sang
for him in Laila Majnu (old, Chal diya kaarvaan...)

>Dev Anand
>
>Kishore Kumar: Hum hain rahi pyar ke (Nau Do Gyarah)
>Mohd. Rafi : Din dhal jaye (Guide)
>Mukesh : Yeh duniya hai (Shayar)
> Chal ri sajni ab kya soche (Bambai Ka Babu)
>Manna Dey : Chhupe rustam hai (Chuppe Rustam)


dAnand was already in the list... It was mentioned that the BkBabu song cannot
be considered since it's a background song... I guess the Shayar song is valid.
The previous post cited a song from Vidya for Mukesh and the duet "Saanjh DHali
dil ki lagi thak chali pukaarke aaja..." from Kala Bazaar.

Hemant: Hai apna dil to aawaara
Talat: Tum to dilke taar chheRke...

>Kishore Kumar: Tum bin jaoon kahan (Pyaar Ka Mausam)
>Mohd. Rafi : Oh duniya ke rakhwale (Baiju Bawara)
>Mukesh : Jhumati chali hawa (Sangeet Samrat Tansen)
>Manna Dey : Sur na saje (Basant Bahar)

Hemant: Chandan ka palna (Shabaab)
Talat: Dil-e-naadaan tujhe hua kya hai (Mirza GHalib)

>Sunil Dutt
>
>Kishore Kumar: Yoon neend se vo jaane chaman (Dard Ka Rishata)

>Mukesh : Sawan Ka Mahina (Milan)

I cudn't recall a Manna Dey song for Sunil Dutt at that time, but now that u
have mentioned the above, we can add him to the list.

Hemant: Saanwle salone aae din bahaar ke
Talat: Jalte hain jiske lie


Sami Mohammed (A Naushad fan)

>Anup

PS: Anup, when's the second RMIM "net-together" ?
PPS: Ikram, why do my mails to you bounce ??

Actually, Jaane Waale Sipaahi is a background song. Nowhere does
Sunil Dutt "sing" it. I guess it would have been inappropriate for a
soldier to sing this song. In fact, they show Nanda, with other soldiers'
families for most of this song. A lot of marching, travelling by train is
also included.

Kishore

p.s. While this song had been picturised well, Aha rimjhim ke ye
pyaare pyaare geet liye was pathetic.

Yes,
Hemant has sung for Shammi KApoor in the movie Bluffmaster. I don't remember
the song offhand but if you are interested will post it in a day or two.
