hi RMIMers:
Does someone have access to title music of the various serials that
Doordarshan used to telecast in the 80s and early 90s before the cable
revolution? Some of the names that I can remember are Buniyaad, Nukkad,
Yeh jo hai zindagi, Khaali haath, Mungeri lal, Mr. Yogi, Karamchand. Some
of these serials used to have nice 3-4 line songs that used to accompany
the credits.
This stuff forms a part of my nostalgia :) Would appreciate any hints
about where I could find it.


thanks,

Ankur.

I also take this opportunity to seek the one line title song of the
first super-duper-smash-hit serial "aa_iye haath uThaaye.n ham bhii"
"ham log ham log".

Was it composed by Anil Biswas?

It seems to be a line in faiz's nazm (... ham jinhe.n rasm-e-wafaa
yaad nahii.n). Was complete nazm composed or just this line?

Ankur,

The title song of Buniyaad was released on cassettes (by Weston? or
Tips) in early 90s... Daraar was another serial, the title song of
which was released on cassettes by Tips. A couple of albums of TV
Songs were recently released by HMV (but most of the serial's songs
featured in those albums are of post 90 era)

Here are some of the title songs...

1. Ye Jo Hai Zindagi
Singer : Kishore Kumar
MD : Ajeet Singh
Lyr : Vinod Sharma

Ye jo hai zindagi
thodi meethi, thodi khatti
thodi teekhi, thodi feeki
phir bhi isme hans kar
jeene ka aaaa
kuchh alag hi hai mazaa

ye jo hai ye jo hai zindagi

mail milte yahan anmel
sadiyon se hai yehi khel
phir bhi isme fans kar
jeene ka aaaa
kuchh alag hi hai mazaa

koi akela koi dukela
kahin sukhdukh kahin jhamela
phir bhi isme hans kar
sang sang reh kar
jeene ka aaaaa

ik alag hi hai mazaaaa

ye jo hai ye jo hai zindagi
ye jo hai zindagi....


2. Hum Log (84 to 87?)

Title :
aaiye haath uthaayein hum bhi
hum bhi hum bhi...

MD : Anil Biswas
Lyricist : Faiz (opening line of one of his nazm)
Singer: Chorus


3. Nukkad

Singer : Various
Music : Kuldeep Singh

Bade shahar ki ek gali me
basa hua hai nukkad

nukkad ke saare baashinde taqdeeron se fakkad

alag alag taqdeer hai sabki
alag alag hai boli

alag alag hai dhandhe sabke
alag alag hai toli

---------------
(fill in the balnks)

Bade shahar ki ek gali me
basa hua hai nukkad

nukkad ke saare baashinde taqdeeron se fakkad


4. Serial : Subah
Title Song : Subah ko kar salaam
Singer : RD Burman
Music : RD Burman

ae zamaane tere saamne aa gaye
aaj ke daur ke nauzawaan aa gaye
dar pe tere ban ke sooraj
leke subah aa gaye

subaha ko kar salaam
subaha ko kar salaam

maut aur zindagi, dono hairaan hain
waqt ke mod mein, hum woh toofaan hain

ae zamaane tere saamne aa gaye
aaj ke daur ke nauzawaan aa gaye
dar pe tere ban ke sooraj
leke subah aa gaye

subaha ko kar salaam
subaha ko kar salaam


Chunauti : The title song Amit Kumar (Music : Sapan Jagmohan most
probably).

Man ek seepi hai
Asha moti hai

har pal jeevan ka ek chunauti hai

If it is okay, I may add "Talaash" to the list with this title song:

Singer: Suresh Wadkar
Music: Hemant (based on "tum pukaar lo")
Lyrics: ?

jiivan ek pyaas hai
sabhii ko (o o) kuchh talaash hai

jinakii ham talaash me.n umr bhar chale
koii jaanataa nahii.n wo kahaa.N mile.n
phir bhii TuuTatii nahii.n ye jo aas hai
sabhii ko (o o) kuchh talaash hai

Nukkad - Filling the blanks

Alag Alag Taqdeer hai jinki Alag Alag Hai Boli
Apne Apne Dhandhe Inke Apni Apni Toli
Girte Hain Sambhalte Hain
Girte Sambhalte hain Ladte Zhagarte hain
Girke Sambhalte hain yaaron
Chahe kisi bhi naam se tum inko pukaro
Yeh saare hain Phakkar.
Gali Gali .....
