Phir teri kahani yaad aayi ...

"Tere dar par sanam , chale aaye .. 

Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye .. "



This song hit my ears yesterday evening.  I stood there still listening to this song watching the rain pouring outside.  Had a cup of tea in my hand and I don't know when my mind digging old memories.

I can't exactly recall which year was it ..but we had board exams , so it cud be year of 1996-97.  Cable TV was introduced in my town, One of our neighbour (Joshi uncle) came with a free cable connection offer at our home. My papa resisted because I and my brother both had Board exams that year, but he didn't listen. He told us to watch the free cable for some months and get it disconnected whenever we wanted.

There were some 12-15 channels including Zee Tv and Zee Cinema. It was like a blessing after watching the classic dance shows and 7-colors strips on Doordarshan.  We used to come to home from office and watch the Cable all day..  Very soon, we got addicted to "DISH" (Cable is called by this name still) ..

When my father realized that we are diverting from the study, he told joshi uncle to disconnect the cable. It was like "pahaad hi toot pada ho" , we started acting like, "we are studying papa, you go and watch the cable.. but don't get it disconnected" .. 

Zee TV started showing trailer of "Phir teri kahani yaad aayi". Its mahesh bhatt's movie starring Pooja bhatt and Rahul Roy.  This was a movie from Zee's own movie house and they were showing the premier of that movie after 2 weeks on Zee TV. 

It was quite fascinating to watch a movie on the day of its release. Zee Tv broadcasted its song whenever it got a free space in the channel schedule.

"Aane wala pal ek sapna hai ..

Gujra hua kal to apna hai ..

Hum gujra kal me rahte ha ..

Yaadoo ke sab jugnu jungle me rahte ahi .. "

I didn't realized when I sipped the last sip of my tea.  The song was still playing ..

"Mein gazal ban gayi aapke saamne ..

Shauk se ab mujhe gunguna lijiye ..

Shayarana si hai zindagi ki sada ..

Aap bhi zindagi ka mazaa liziye .."

This movie was based on Mahesh bhatt's own life .. (somebody says so) , But who cares, we watched it after studying for some 6 hours continously and after convincing papa ..  it was a short movie of 2 hrs with excellent songs.

The movie songs are awesome,  and the lyrics are very touching ..

My personal favourite song is "Tere dar par sanam" .. Its not something which you listen a lot and then forget it when you hear some other song .. Some of my childhood memories are linked with the songs of this movie and It will always be cherishing those memories with these songs...
