Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana

It is generally belived that commercial (mainstream) bollywood movies were make belive ones whereas “art” movies depicted reality. Not always.
Here is a song from an out an out commercial movie called “Aapki Kasam” picturised on the saleable pair of actors of the time viz Rajesh Khanna and Mumtaz. Does one find the feelings depicted in the song unbelievable ? Not at all. On the contrary, it is a very realistic and natural picturisation of the feelings depicted in the song.
Rajesh Khanna is feeling amorous towards Mumtaz in a park full with lovers in various compromising poses, but Mumtaz pours cold water on his passion by forbiddding him to come closer since they are supposed to abstain from love for the day. Rajesh Khanna ofcourse reasons with her, but Mumtaz, like an archtypical Indian housewife of those days would have none of it. Rajesh Khanna implores her not to play hard to get since it is obvious that she too is as willing as him. Yes, willing I am , but today we are supposed to abstain from love, is the reply from her.
The song is depicted wonderfully well. One could not have come up with any better lyrics for this situation than Anand Bakshi has come up with here. A wonderful song has been picturised even more wonderfully. A pure gem !
Song-paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana (Aapki kasam ) (1974) Singer-Lata , Kishore Kumar, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi , MD-R D Burman
Lyrics
Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana
Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana
tumko saugandh hai ke aaj muhabbat band hai
Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana
tumko saugandh hai ke aaj muhabbat band hai
kitna..kitna mazaa hai aise jeene me
dhak dhak bhi hoti nahi seene me
kitna mazaa hai aise jeene me
dhak dhak bhi hoti nahi seene me
koi bechaini nahin
kitna anand hai ke aaj muhabbat band hai
mat chhed apne deewaane ko
rahne de tu is bahaane ko
he mat chhed apne deewaane ko
rahne de tu is bahaane ko
hothon pe naa hai magar dil to razaamand hai
razamand hai
magar aaj muhabbat band hai
Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana
tumko saugandh hai ke aaj muhabbat band hai
Paas nahin aana bhool nahin jaana
tumko saugandh hai ke aaj muhabbat… band hai
