Our elections at the moment are over after a most poisonous marketing campaign. When the 2 formations weren’t abusing one another they have been competing in promising the citizens moon. Voters appear to have now turn out to be good. They will need to have realised that many of the guarantees wouldn’t be, can’t be fulfilled. There isn’t any free lunch; if somebody gives one thing free, one thing else has to offer manner. However one of many two principal rivals got here up with a pleasant tagline: “My assure additionally means a assure that the assure could be fulfilled.” That could be a good one, one thing like “Raj Raj Raj & Firm”. In Shree 420 the desires of the individuals have been fulfilled, in the actual world the voters have to attend for the bounties promised to them.
Now a new-old authorities is within the saddle, and we’re seeing a distinct sort of kasme-vaade in play. Guarantees made to the voters are placed on the backburner. It’s time for the coalition companions to extract the kasme vaade made to them with some arm-twisting.
The kasme vaade in our movies are centred round pyar and wafa. Within the days of fine, outdated Bollywood love and belief meant gallivanting round bushes and flowers. Social mores have now modified. Now there are numerous levels of relationship from ‘simply associates’ to ‘situational relationship’ to ‘seeing one another’ to ‘relationship’ to ‘dedicated’ to ‘live-in’. This has given rise to new challenges and new jurisprudence whether or not refusing to marry is ‘rape’ or ‘breach of belief’. Within the olden days it was easy, the sufferer of betrayal sang: Wafa jinse ki bewafa ho gaye/ Wo vaade mohabbat ke kya ho gaye.
Kasme vaade pyar wafa is ubiquitous and now we have zillion songs on this. Allow us to savour some.
1. Kasme vaade pyar wafa sab baatein hain baton ka kya by Manna Dey from Upkar (1967), lyrics Indivar, music Kalyanji-Anandji
Pran began as a lead actor, then switched on to adverse characters and shortly established himself as probably the most beloved meanest characters on the display screen. Upkar was a makeover movie for him and kudos to Manoj Kumar for presenting him in a novel optimistic function. Pran’s character Baba Malang within the movie was a indifferent aged villager of sane voice. This began his second innings of a chameleon who might alternate between good and a foul man and extra layered shades with ease. Manna Dey is befitting on this philosophical track.

2. Kasme vaade nibhayenge hum by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar from Kamse Vaade (1978), lyrics , music RD Burman
This might be equal to “My assure means a assure that the assure could be fulfilled”.
3. Ye vaada karein jahan bhi rahein tum hamare raho hum tumhare rahein by Mukesh and Lata Mangeshkar from Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere (1960), lyrics KL Pardesi, music Kalyanji-Anandji
Dharmendra’s debut film in a lead function sank with out hint, but it surely had some nice songs by Mukesh composed by Kalyanji-Anandji. On this cheerful duet Dharmendra and Kumkum are gallivanting with pleasure.
4. Ye vaada karo chaand ke saamne bhula to na doge tum is par ko by Mukesh and Lata Mangeshkar from Raajhath (1956), lyrics Hasrat Jaipuri, music Shankar-Jaikishan
For those who promise one thing within the presence of a celestial physique just like the moon, it carries extra weight.
5. Wafa jinse ki bewafa ho gaye wo vaade mohabbat ke kya ho gaye by Mukesh from Pyar Ka Sagar (1961), lyrics Prem Dhawan, music Ravi
The betrayal of belief causes an incredible despondency. The track begins with a sluggish recital: Ho gaye do roz mein barbaad bhi, aabad bhi/ Ab tamanna hai yahi aaye na unki yaad bhi. After the betrayal our hero laments:
Jo kahte the hum to sada hain tumhare
Zamane mein sabse jinhein hum the pyare
Wo hello aaj humse juda ho gaye
We may be certain of 1 factor – the person was not a politician. Aaya Ram gaya Ram; Paltoo Ram are fairly frequent characters in that enviornment.
6. Ansoo bhari hain ye jeevan ki raahein, koi unse kah de humein bhool jaayein by Mukesh from Parvarish (1958), lyrics Hasrat Jaipuri, music Dattaram
Many are capable of transfer over, however some are too delicate. Their despondency is aware of no depths.
Vaade bhula dein kasam tod dein wo
Haalat pe apni humein chhod dein wo
Unhein ghar mubarak humein apni aahein
Koi unse kah de humein bhool jaayein
7. Ye na thi hamari kismet ki visaal-e-yaar hota by Suraiya from Mirza Ghalib (1954), lyrics Ghalib, music Ghulam Mohammad
One of many couplets of Ghalib on this ghazal was:
Tere vaade par jiye hum to ye jaan jhooth jana
Ki khushi se mar na jaate agar aitbaar hota
Your promise made me dwell, let that not deceive
Fortunately my life I might give, if I might however consider
(English translation taken from Rekhta.org)
Within the present elections, too, voters have conveyed this message of what they consider the politicians’ guarantees and lots of events will need to have been chastened.

8. Jo vaada kiya wo nibhana padega by Rafi and Lata Mangeshkar from Taj Mahal (1963), lyrics Sahir Ludhiyanavi, music Roshan
Roshan was the person for Muslim socials and movies primarily based on Mughal princes. One in every of his most remembered songs is stern on guarantees. Come what might – Roke zamana chaahe roke khudaayi tumko aana padega, Jo vaada kiya wo nibhana padega.
9. Khai hai re humne kasam sang rahne ki by Lata Mangeshkar from Talash (1969), lyrics Majrooh Sultanpuri, music SD Burman

10. Tum agar saath dene ka vaada karo predominant yun hello mast naghme lutata rahun by Mahendra Kapoor from Humraaz (1967), lyrics Sahir Ludhiyanavi, music Ravi
Sunil Dutt finds his muse in Vimi, however she appears burdened by one thing. He’s fairly expressive in his love – For those who solely promise to be with me, I might provide all my songs to you. However the stunning dumb doll doesn’t present any feelings. I don’t bear in mind if Vimi got here in one other film. A particularly melodious track, among the finest by Mahendra Kapoor.
11. Hey maine kasam li by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar from Tere Mere Sapne (1971), lyrics Niraj, music SD Burman
A young film with nice songs, but it surely was commercially not a really profitable movie. Mumtaz by now had reworked from a B grade common or a vamp to a famous person. This movie confirmed her as an outstanding delicate actress helped by some delectable by within the movie. Each Dev Anand and Mumtaz assert their promise to one another that they’d by no means separate.
12. Tumhein dil se chaha, tumhein dil diya hai, ye vaada karo ki bhula to na doge by Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur from Chaand Aur Suraj (1965), lyrics Shailendra, music Salil Chowdhury
I’m pleased that what began on a cynical word within the wake of Basic Elections is ending on a optimistic word with a collection of good songs primarily based on guarantees between the lead actors. When the going is sweet, when the lovers are in courtship section and pleased in sylvan environment, they belief one another’s guarantees and, due to this fact, there may be pleasure in asking the opposite individual for promise that he/she wouldn’t neglect. Salil Chowdhury has composed solely a handful songs for Rafi. Amongst these is that this gem, my nice favorite. I’m very pleased to finish this submit with Tumhein dil se chaha, tumhein dil diya hai, ye vaada karo ki bhula to na doge.
