awesome music (Hridaynath Mangeshkar), awesome singing (ashaji), and
awesome dancing (Hema malini)

Halimali on December 27, 2008
Yeaaaa that was an amazing album. All the songs were amazing, It was a
landmark for the Mangeshkar family

seemam9 on December 27, 2008
awesome album indeed...My personal fav is "Suniyo ji araj maari, babula
hamar"

twinkle420eye on January 24, 2009
whatever happened to the actresses who could carry & convey a song just SITTING on the floor...

now they're jumping all over the place...still you get not an iota expressed

Halimali on January 24, 2009
right Twinkle, really miss those days. Previously audiences enjoyed
extremely when the camera focused on the face of Hema, Meeena Kumari or
Nutan, The shot used to be sooo beautiful and eye catching. Nowdays it is
disgusting big time

Abhijit Khare on March 13, 2009
wonderful song based on Raag. Bilaskhani Todi... which is tough to sing.
but Satyasheel Deshpande ans Asha Bhosle have sung it effortlessly.

Sunny Sharma on September 02, 2009
this song is a winner!

peahen009 on November 22, 2009
Absolutely mind-blowing composition by the meastro Hridaynath Mangeshkar based on Raag Bilaskhani Todi

gauratan77 on November 24, 2009
Actualy the start compostion is sung male is taken orginaly of
Pt.D.V.Paluskar and Later (Drut) compositon sung by Asha Bhosle is the
orginal compositon of my Grandpa Pt.S.N.Ratanjankar (Vohi Jao Jao.
Jao Baalma )

gunabcd on February 22, 2010
Who is the (male) singer of the opening peace? what raga/style etc is it? and most importantly is there a complete version of that raga/song? really love those first 10-15 seconds.

ravi seetharam on March 30, 2010
Is this Gurjari Thodi?

ravi seetharam on March 30, 2010
@abhikhare7 What is the difference b/n Gurjari Thodi and Bilaskhani Thodi?

Abhijit Khare on March 30, 2010
@ravindrabhatt - It is said that Tansens son Bilas Khan was grieving after
Tansens death and took Tansens Miyan ki Todi (very similar to Gujari with
the exception of Pa being absent in Gujari) and composed a new Raga mixing
Bhairavi and Todi to get Bilaskhani Todi. so Bilaskhani has components
of Bhairavi in it... Some people also see Asavari in it..

raqib56 on April 22, 2010
@ravindrabhatt, No, this is Belaskhani todi in Bhainravi thaat, sung in
sampurna i.e. all seven surrs arohi and amrohi, ascending & descending.
Son of Mian Tansen Bilas Khan invented it.

Gujri Todi is derived from Todi thaat, in sadhava jati, i.e 6 surrs arohi amrohi
its a noon raag !

Aditya Ghosh on April 23, 2010
thnx a ton halimali, I had the good fortune of hearing this after such a
long time. The Bilaskhani Todi alaap is derived from DV Paluskar no doubt
but the entire composition has the beauty and melody that none of the
current songs could ever imagine to reach... thanks again

ffajil on May 18, 2010
@seemam9 :do not leave Gulzar.
:D

Avinash S on June 08, 2010
Hema Malini is very beautiful but I do not find anybody as gorgeous as
Dimple Kapadia.

apurvanow on July 13, 2010
I watched this movie when it came out, but last week suddenly I watched it for the second time. Initially I wondered why Hema in this film, especially when she is shown as a younger girl in parts of the film. All those questions were answered when this song came-up. Name one who could dance like she can in long screen shorts. Most actress of the time this movie came out were only capable of dancing on the street (Bollywood style) with a screen shot no longer than a couple of seconds.

rahim8957 on September 05, 2010
As all her videos, Hema Malini is very nice and beautiful actress, but in this video we can see how many Hema its an true artist in the dance. Thank you!!!

Uday Mohole on September 07, 2010
Addha Teental.Awesome music + Vocal + No wards to say.Mind blowing.

Satya Pramanik on September 12, 2010

Navin Singh on September 12, 2010
pt. satyasheel deshpande is brilliant. and asha ji has shown her greatness
by being able to hold her own against a giant like pandit ji.

teentunes on September 30, 2010
Amazing dance ... simply amazing dancer complimenting the voice and the
music.

Misssrijeeta on November 30, 2010

utubesanjay on February 27, 2011
pandit satyalsheel deshpande is amazing. I love hia style, voice and renditions. And asha is superb as usual. Thank u panditji

Ashok Pandit on March 05, 2011
I love this song and the raga Bilaskhani Todi on which this song is based.

remabarve on April 08, 2011
thumbs up for great singer satyasheel deshpande!!!

merijaan3 on April 21, 2011
translation anyone ?would really appreciate it , thanks

Ankur Bhattacharyya on May 19, 2011
THANX 4 D POST. ITS A GR8 COLLECTION!

prabhasm on July 15, 2011
Ashaji sang this live in Washington DC in 2010, just on chords and without
any music, and with a brief recount of the history of Bilaskhani Todi,
presented several variations of the aalaap -- Pt. Jasraj was in the
audience! -- it sounded so good -- i keep thinking the original recording,
great though it was, was always a bit muffled and gave her limited room for
improvisation!

Ajay Tayade on August 22, 2011
Gulzarsaab!

Khursheed Omer on September 16, 2011
@halimali You are absolutely right! I do not watch modern day movies
because they are so disgusting.

snehalatha on December 27, 2011
@TheDimasisk We are moving from the era of Dhvani (suggestive portrayal)
into the arena of the explicit. Vulgarity will rule more and more as the
king in movies and we will have to stop going to the movies and enjoy media
such as Kathak and BharataNatyam and Odisi to see cultured and restrained
and Dhvanipradhaan entertainment.

Laboni Chaudhuri on January 07, 2012
Amazing.m spell bound...the beauty of Raga
Bilas-Khan-E-Todi.well represented by Ashaji is just superb.no
wordssssssssssssss.. nd the dance By Hema Malini ji.the facial
expressionssss..woooooowwwwwwwwwwwww .what to say:-)))))))

AVTAR SINGH BATHAM on January 24, 2012
ASTOUNDING SINGING OF BILAS KHANI TODI

Nick sheengold on June 22, 2012
Superb Rag and excellence elegance kathak dance only Hemi fits for this in
Lakin

Possumfaced on August 29, 2012
Gulzar has this amazing ability to lend dignity to even the most abstract of subjects. As abstract as reincarnations and wandering spirits...

rshcam on August 30, 2012
Asha Bhosle at the age of 78 sang this song in Indian Idol episode dated
Aug 24th, 2012. Lekin album was made in 1990. So even after 22 years, Asha
Bhosle could sing the song perfectly like the original one. That is the
mark of a true singer.

shahzadcool1 on August 31, 2012
simply amazing!!!! all living legends are associated with a composition like this,ASHA,GULZAR,HEMA AND HRIDAYANATH MANGESHKAR!!!

mariandevadas on October 12, 2012
beautiful! bravo hema , bravo asha!

Anurag Sharan on December 16, 2012
MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE ...ASHA AT HER BEST...A RELATIVELY LESS POPULAR
NEVERTHELESS BREATHTAKING SONG!!! ASHAJI .CHARAN SPARSH!!!

Anurag Sharan on December 16, 2012
SUCH A LOVELY MUSIC ARRANGEMENT...A SONG OF LOVE...ROMANCE AND ENVY!!!
BEAUTIFUL LYRICS...TAKES ONE INTO ANOTHER ERA!!!

rajuragatube on April 01, 2013
she sang it last night (31 March 2013) at her concert in Mumbai and that
was amazing.at the age of 80

broadswordable on June 17, 2013
hridaynath mangeshkar is easily the best music director I have
heard.

Ravi S K Iyengar on September 21, 2013
Bilaskhani todi raag in its best avatar...great Hridaynath ji

karty301 on September 25, 2013
