On the occasion of Janmashtmi, I am posting few songs of Dahi Handi. In Maharashtra Janmashtmi is celebrated as Gokul Ashtmi. The festival gets this popular regional name from legend of baby Krishna. According to it, he would seek and steal milk products such as yoghurt and butter and people would hide their supplies high up out of the baby's reach. Govinda would try all sorts of creative ideas in his pursuit, such as making human pyramids with his friends to break these high hanging pots. Bollywood celebrates all the festivals enthusiastically both on and off the screen. Dahi Handi, celebrated on the occasion of Lord Krishna's birth, is one such festival which gets a new twist by every filmmaker The first Dahi Handi song that became popular was Govinda Ala Re from Bluff Master. Shammi Kapoor performed the song gracefully.
Today is Krishna Janmashtami, a hindu festival celebrating the birth of Krishna. The day brings in lots of colurs and music to our life.We should thank our Film Industry who has given us songs for all occasions.Music lovers like me and those who grew up listening such songs in their respective ‘formative years’ of life will certainly will enjoy with these songs. 1. Bluff Master - Govinda Aala Re Aala A Superhit hindi song from bollywood film, Bluff Master, 1963. The Shammi Kapoor, Saira Banu, Pran, Lalita Pawar starrer gained popularity with this song. The music created by Kalyanji Anandji, is still the first song that comes to ones mind when thinking of Janmashtami.
2 Khuddar - Mach Gaya Shor Sari Nagri Re
This Amitabh Bachchan starrer reminds us of Krishna's tricks on Radha, his unusual ways of pulling her legs and his wittiness that makes us smile every time we watch or listen to it.
This is another popular hindi song has the background score playing as 'Govinda ayo re'. The Shatrughan Sinha starrer went on to add colour to the loved and much celebrated janmashtami.
4Vaastav - Har taraf hai ye shor aaya gokul ka chor
The handi-phor is beautifully portrayed in this song.The song is from Vaastav.Sanjay Dutt shows him in a playful mood,the music is given by Jatin Lalit.It brings back the traditional playful Janmashtami.
5 Kala Bazar- Ala re Govinda
The old magic of Govinda ala re created once again by Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor.The music of the Gokulashtami song from Kala Baazar was created by Rajesh Roshan.
6Baaje badhaayi aaj nand ji ke dwaar(Nandkishore )(1951)
A very rare song from the 1951 film ‘Nandkishore’. The song celebrates the spirit of this day,The words of this song are written by Pt. Narendra Sharma, and the music is from the baton of Snehal Bhatkar. The singing voice is that of Lata, supported by chorus.
7 Satyam Shivam Sundaram- Yashomati Maiyya Se Bole Nandlala
The song is Krishna's complain to his mother about he being dark, while Radha being fair. It portrays the innocence of krishna. Padmini Kolhapuri sings this song in screen.
8 Radha Kaise Na Jale - Lagaan:
The song has a slight classical touch along with folk tunes which holds the song beautifully. Udit Narayan and Asha Bhosle create magic with their melodious voice. Gracy Singh and Aamir Khan make this song look even more beautiful on screen.
9 Go Go Go Govinda- OMG Oh My God
This song composed by Himesh Reshammiya is a high voltage song. The song featuring Sonakshi and Prabhudheva is a festive number. Sonakshi's dance in the song caught attention as soon as the song released.
