6 Sham-e-Gham Ki Kasam – Footpath, 1953
When it came to sad songs, singer Talat Mahmood was king. This tune, composed by Khayyam and written by Ali Sardar Jafri, is picturised on Dilip Kumar, and talks of the agony of waiting through the lines “Aa bhi jaa, aa bhi jaa, mere sanam”.

These Old Songs have such high philosophical Lyrics and the music is so appealing .I sm so happy for you .
Thank you and Congratulations .
I mean MUBARAK HO .

How one can forget song

sir, please forgive my audacity , is it possible to get the so beautifully selected songs along with some of the equally meleficious songs selected by some of the connoisseurs of hindi films in the form of a CD. Regards
Dear Vijay,
There are plenty platforms available where you can listen these music offline. You can also request someone in your family to download the songs and get it on CD/DVD or Pen Drive.

Is it not the words song Hey Jude don’t……. take sad song and make it better

My most favourite song in the ‘sad song’ category is ‘waqt ne kiya, kya haseen sitam..’.

Choice differs from person to person if I had a choice .I would include only songs between 1945 to 1960 he golden period of Hindi film music when singers like Rafi.Mukesh.Talat Mahmood and Hemant Kumar,K.L.Sehgal female singers like Noor Jahan.Johra Bai Ambalewali Kanan Devi ,Lata Aasha Geeta Roy Shamsad Begun were at their peak. Composers like S D.Burman,Roshan , Shankar Jaikishsn Ravi,Naushad and many more ruled
Very nice collection ?
