Pran's immortal songs from 70mm

Not too many people know this. But Pran has a hugely impressive body of songs associated with his characters on screen. Here’s looking at Pran’s chartbusters. Kasme vaade pyar wafa: Upkar (sung by Manna Dey) Jeena toh hai usski jissne yeh raaz jaana hai kaam aadmi ka auron ke kaam aana: Adhikar. This evergreen Qawwalli sung by Mohd Rafi and filmed on Pran embodies Pran Saab’s real-life philosophy. Yaari hai imaan mera: Zanjeer. When Manna Dey sang for a second time for Pran after Upkar it had to be something special. This Qawwalli was a bigger hit than other Kalyanji-Anandji chartbusters in Zanjeer. Raaz ki baat kehn doon toh: Dharm. The Qawwalli sung by Asha Bhosle and Mohd Rafi and filmed on Bindu and Pran dragged this potboiler to a blockbuster level. Hum bolega toh bologe ki bolta hai: Kasauti: The film again got its box office clout solely from this Kishore Kumar song filmed on Pran. Phir na kehna Michael daroo peekey danga karta hai: Majboor. A Goan tune composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal and sung with gusto by Kishore Kumar. Interestingly Kishoreda also sang for the Big B in Majboor. Do bechare bina sahaare: Victoria 203. The song was a rage. Interestingly Mahendra Kapoor sang for Pran while Kishore Kumar crooned for his brother Ashok Kumar.
