“Chhoomantar”(1956) was produced and directed by M Sadiq. The movie had Johny Walker and Shyama in lead roles. Others in the movie include Karan Dewan, Anita Guha, Raj Mehra, Gajanan Jagirdar, Amar, S N Bannerji, Tony Walker etc in it.
Today (16 january 2015) is the 89th birth anniversary of O P Nayyar (16 january 1926-28 january 2007). Here is a song from “Chhoomantar”(1956) on this occasion.
This song is sung by Geeta Dutt. The picturisation shows Johny Walker, cross dressing as a female, performs Mujra on this song. His clients think that Johny Walker is singing too, but it is Shyama, hiding a a distance, who is “singing” for Johny Walker the way Kishore Kumar sings for Sunil Dutt in “Padosan”(1968). And the clients of Johny Walker, being villain’s henchmen, are suitably dumb and are unable to detect the things that are amiss.
Geeta Dutt is the singer. Jaan Nisaar Akhtar is the lyricist. Music is composed by O P Nayyar.
Song-Gori gori raat hai taaron ki baaraat hai (Chhoomantar)(1956) Singer-Geeta Dutt, Lyrics-Jaan Nisaar Akhtar, MD-O P Nayyar
Lyrics
gori gori raat hai
taaron ki baaraat hai
aaja
ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
taaron ki baaraat hai
aaja
ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
dekho ji
aayi hai raat bade armaanon ki
aise mein toote na aas tere deewaanon ki
dekho ji
aayi hai raat bade armaanon ki
aise mein toote na aas tere deewaanon ki
aaja
o aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
taaron ki baaraat hai
aaja ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
tere bina koi kya raaz hamaara jaanega
badli hai soorat bhi
kaun hamen pehchaanega
tere bina koi kya
raaz hamaara jaanega
badli hai surat bhi
kaun hamen pehchaanega
aaja ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
taaron ki barat hai
aaja ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
aise bhi waise bhi
dekh zamaana jalta hai
ikdam tikdam agdam bagdam
pyaar mein sab kuchh chalta hai
aise bhi waise bhi
dekh zamaana jalta hai
ikdam tikdam agdam bagdam
pyaar mein sab kuch chalta hai
aaja ho aaja
aise bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
taaron ki baaraat hai
aaja ho aaja
aisi bhi kya baat hai
gori gori raat hai
