Shammikapoor comments on churake dil mera song movie#
Yahoo from Junglee – I would like to begin the list with the movie and song which helped Shammi Ji to rose to stardom.
I also excluded some popular female solos filmed on Shammi Kapoor, such as Aaja Aaja Aaye Bahar, Thandi Thandi Hawa Mein Dil Lal Jaaye etc.ġ. I have been forced to exclude some of my favourite Shammi Kapoor songs from the list when I reduced his best songs to best 50, and hence have listed a few more songs beneath the list. As most of the songs were composed by Shankar-Jaikishen, lyrics were mostly penned by Hasrat Jaipuri, followed by Shailendra. An invisible energy fills his voice whenever he sings for Shammi Kapoor, voice modulation is different too, and that’s why Rafi’s songs for this actor look entirely different from those he sings for other actors. Needless to say, apart from a very few songs, most of them exclusively belong to singer Mohammed Rafi and quite a few his career best songs. In this column I shall present 50 of my favourite Shammi Kapoor songs. Then why not love him? Shammi Kapoor songs played a magnificent role in shaping Bollywood music in the 1960s, absolutely.Įarlier I have posted a few articles on Shammi Kapoor, and beneath this column, you can find Shammi Kapoor gallery.
His songs were brilliantly sung by Rafi and he filled the screen with his presence and magic. After all among all old heroes who mostly stayed calm and quiet onscreen, he was ‘naughty’ and dances a lot, and I can’t find a reason why kids don’t love him. As a child in the 1980s, when I used to watch songs on Doordarshan, Shammi ji’s style attracted me a lot. Though a Keralite, Shammi Kapoor songs made me listen to Bollywood songs since by childhood, and songs of Shammi Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna drew me to Hindi music and I became an ardent fan of old Hindi songs. In fact his songs put the basement to Western influence in Indian music in the 1960s, and that’s why he is definitely India’s first rock star.
In an era of soft tracks mostly based on Indian classical music and instruments, Shammi’s rock and fast tracks also gained equal popularity.
Perhaps in the history of Indian cinema, maximum number of flirting and teasing numbers might have been filmed on this actor, whose all song sequences are instant hits. When it comes to romance, Shammi Kapoor will always remain one among the top stars, and his flirting songs and scenes are loved by female audience most. He owns a huge fan following crowd till now, and is best remembered for his songs, though he owns many successful films to his credit. Yahoo Star Shammi Kapoor – the original Rockstar of Hindi cinema, best known for his histrionics, energetic dancing style and unique mannerisms redefined the romantic image of heroes on Bollywood screen in the 1960s.
