   I'm sorry to disappoint you Jasjit (Jazzgeet if you prefer)
 but this song is sung by Manna Dey and not KK.


  However, here are a few more, by KK.

 I believe Manna Dey sang for Raj Kapoor as well, though I can;t think of
any songs right now. I remember reading somewhere that Mukesh actually
sang more songs for Manoj Kumar than for Raj Kapoor - can anyone confirm/deny
this ?

  Staying on the topic of actors and playback singers, the movie "Abhimaan"
with Amitabh Bachchan had at least three singers singing for him - Kishore
Kumar, Mohd. Rafi and ??, which strikes me as being a little unusual.

ALso tune of one song in Ghayal is copied of Lambada.

I don't mind if the tune is copied and the music is mixed with indian music and so on, but when the music of an action film is played in the romantic hindi film

I have a slight difference of opinion. If I understand you
right (correct me if it ain't so), you seem to be saying that
the level of difficulty in a song is somehow related to the
number of notes of the octave. In other words, more notes ==> 
more difficult to play the song. That isn't quite right.
To me, a song is difficult to *reproduce on an instrument*
(not to be confused with singing it correctly) if it has
an unexpected twist, an unusual pattern of notes and so on. 
In this respect, I have found Salil Chowdhury and Hridaynath  
Mangeshkar to be the most challenging (I'm not too familiar with 
Illaiyaraja and other south Indian composers).

No, "Aradhana" had only 2 playback singers for Rajesh.   S.D. Burman does sing
a song himself in this film ("Kahe ko roye, chaahe jo hoye") but it is a
background song and is not sung by any particular actor.
On the female side, both Lata and Asha lend their voice to Sharmila Tagore,
Lata for "Kora kagaz tha yeh jeevan mera" and "Chanda hai tu mera suraj hai tu"
and Asha for "Gun guna rahe hain bhavre khil rahi hai kali kali".
The Asha-Rafi song has always perplexed me.   Firstly, this song suddenly 
introduces a new voice for both the hero as well as the heroine.  Secondly, I had
heard the Bengali version (presumably the original) of this song and it is sung
by Asha and Kishore.   Why then would SD make Rafi sing the Hindi version ?

Similarly, in "Baat ke raat ki", why would he ask Suman Kalyanpur to sing THE
best song of the film (not that I dislike her or anything but it is going away
from the norm) "Na tum hame jaano, na hum tumhe jaane".   I do know that there
was a period in the middle when Lata and SD had a disagreement and he would not
use her (they patched up for "Guide"), but there are other songs by Lata in the
same film.

I guess we will never find out....  Unsolved Mysteries :-) :-)

  About OP Nayyar's style: I realized when I played a few of his
songs on instruments, he uses as much as 10 notes of the 12 notes
(including sharps and flats) in a song. And all this without
losing the melody at all. That's really incredible! Most of the
classical songs (or even ragas) do not use more than 8/9 notes.
This style of OPN, in fact makes it difficult to play his
songs correctly, on any instruments, for amateurs like me.
On the other hand some of the new songs hardly use 5-6 notes
(and even the songs based on some ragas like Bhoop) which
can be played with some trial and error.  In the same context
songs sung by Amitabh rarely go to the higher octate.
Also the song Khaike pan Banaraswala uses the same note
in the first line so that it can be played even on a
table-top (using as a tabla) but will be difficult to
recognize even after played on some more melodious
instrument.


On a different note: Was OP Nayyar anytime romantically involved
with Asha Bhonsale? I remember of reading such gossip long long
time ago (naturally before the start of RD Berman's career).

The music director for the original film in Tamil ("Pazhanangal Mudivathillai"
I think) was Ilaiyaraja but the Hindi film "Kalaakar" had music by Kalyanji
Anandji.   The two versions of the song were sung by Kishore Kumar and Sadhna
Sargam.   Also, although the chorus has the same tune, I don't think the rest of
the song copies the tune of the original.
The case that immediately comes to mind where the music was identical in both
the Tamil and Hindi versions of the film and the MD was the same is of course
"Moondram Pirai" and "Sadma".

I like this song from Karz because of its great guitar. The singer

The film is "Ustaad", music as you said by Nayyar.   I always thought that this song had
music by SD Burman, probably because of the way the song begins but it later relapses into
a typical Nayyar tabla beat.   That was a trademark of Nayyar's.  He would often start with
a westernish beat and then go into an Indian tabla beat in the verse and suddenly float back
to the original rhythm when the verse ends.
Other than the above song, you will also see it in
"Yeh hai reshmi zulfon ka andhera" from "Mera Saaya" and
"Aaiye meherbaan, dekhiye jaanejan" from "Howrah Bridge" and a hundred other songs of his.

Anyone else wishing to comment on distinctive styles of other music directors !!!!
