Mein or Mera Songs- The songs used to establish one's character (Part 2)

 

                                                                                 Part 2

Continuing from my earlier post, in this part, I have selected 15 very popular ' Mein or Mera' or 'Hum aur Hamara' songs of the 1960s. The first song on my list is 'Mera Naam Raju Gharana Anaam' from the 1960 film 'Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behati Hai'(1960), sung by Mukesh for Raj Kapoor. The song is sung by Mukesh and it is picturized on Raj Kapoor as a boat song. The song is an introduction song where Raj Kapoor, carrying a “Dafli” introduces himself by singing this song. This film has two more songs 'Ho Maine Pyar Kiya' and 'Hum Bhi Hain Tum Bhi Ho' in this theme.

Mein or Mera Songs- The songs used to establish one's character (Part 1)

 

                                                                      Part 1
