THEME SONGS- Train Songs-PART 2


Railways remains the important part of an average indian.We all have been fascinated with trains and its journies.Bollywood has given us some iconic scenes shots or songs inside a train or on a railway platform.I am presenting here some selected songs of Golden Era as well as Modern Era.
Here I am including the songs from 1969 onwards
The first song comes in my mind is from Aradhna where Rajesh Khanna is singing this popular song .Rajesh Khanna ,on a jeep ,serenaded Sharmila Tagore in a train, a superstar was born. But due to a non –availability of her dates Sharmila’s portions were shot in a studio.So that ‘train’ is actually a cardboard compartment.
mere sapno ki rani

 Phoolon ki rang se from Prem Pujari

This song was sung by Kishore kumar and acted by Dev Anand





Hum Dono Do Premi from Ajanabee
Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar sang the song without instrumental support.




Bombay Se Baroda Tak from Rafoochakkar


Only Audio is available

Gadi Bula Rahi Hai from Dost
The signature from Dulal Guha’s Dost nailed it . This is the one train song that most significantly defines the romance of locomotive.


Gadi Bula Rahi Hai

Pal Do Pal Ka Saath Hamara from The Burnning Train

Pal Do Pal Ka Saath

Chaiyyan chaiyyan in Mani Ratnam’s Dil Se 
Shah Rukh Khan and Malaika Arora jiving on top of a roofless train. A R Rahman’s composition incorporated the rhythms of a moving train with neat dexterous beats that made the heart pound. Khan and Arora did quite a balancing act on that speeding train. 



Haathon ki chand lakeero ka( Vidhaata)

This is not a romantic song  this time, the locomotive drivers, who have seen it all in their lives, sing a more philosophical song aboard the steam locomotiv

Haathon ki chand lakeero ka

 Kasto Mazaa from Parineeta


Chup Chup Chup Kyon Baithi Ho from  Hamraahi 1974 



 Dhadak Dhadak from Bunty Aur Babli



Jai Ho from  Slumdog Millionaire


Hoga Tumse Pyaara Kaun: Zamane Ko Dikhana Hai
