SL: The movies along with the songs please. Let me try :
1. Beethi na bithaye...PARICHAY?
2.O mere dil ke chain..MERE JEEVAN SATHI
3.Diye jalte hain...NAMAK AHRAAM
4. Aaja piya and Chunri sambhal- Shammi-Asha pa(b)reak(h)..is it some sapne
5.Raat khali..what a song! Isnt it heerapanna?
6.Aane waala pal...GOLMAAL
And I remembered Rajnigandha by salil..man , that "Rajnigandha fool(why do I alaays run into trouble with this word?) tumhare"...I am clean bowled lock, stock and barrel. For sheer sweet melody , yet complex tunes, I think nobody can beat Salilda. Just like " Sweet and Simple" is a SDB speciality! And that mukesh solo...I thought Mukesh was excellent in that...ofcourse, that would immeditely link you to "Choti si baat" and "Na jaane kyon", and "Yeh din kya aaye", anotehr Mukesh magic.
And Anand! Well,well, I cant be posting all night,c an I? More later!

Khayyam , yes, SRK, a favourite of mine, once a hot favourite. But I somehow felt later that he lacked versatility. Strictly IMO(though ofcourse I have always felt this phrase is unnecesary because when I post it, it is bound to be MO:)).
Ofcourse, Kabhie Kabhie was his magnum-opus. Think he'll be remebered for it. Talking of KK, "Mein Pal do pal ka shayar hoon" had great lyrics, I felt. Another calling for bull:)
I remember another (not-so)popular effort of Khayyam..a Raj-Kapoor movie Phir subah hogi which had this "Aasmaan pe hai khuda" which inspired "Pattu Paadava".."Budhiyulla manidharelam" and even S-J's "Kisi ki muskurahaton..". And later "Paraivagal Palavidham". The movie had the unforgettable "Woh subah kabbhie to aayegi"(Lyrics:THE GREAT Sahir..sahir-khayyam was a top notch combination) and a couple of melodious duets 'Aap yun hi agar humse milte rahe, dekhiye ek din pyar ho jaayega" and the other one I dont remember.
And incidentally, I really dont like "O saathi re..'.Dont know why. Reminds me of SPB's over-expressive songs:)(Apologies to SpB fans ,mainly rajaG...if he happens to unfortunately come here:)
Another popular song of K-A that strieks a discordant note (now, this is a more diplomatic way of putting things:)) is "Pal Pal Dil ke paas".

Raj,
Yenna sontha Ooru Tanjore thane..Sema kindal ponga... Thanks for providing me the opportunity to correct you againg..."App yoon hi agar" is composed by OP Nayyar for "Ek musafir Ek Haseena". But I have to agree with you on Khayyam. He was a very good composer capable of versaility but got stuck in the Ghazal slot in the 80's and that was it. Some of my favourites are
Jane Kyaa Doondthi rehthi hain (Rafi..I run out of words to describe his singing)
Baharon mera jeevan bhi savaro (Lata)
Jeeth hi lenge Baazi Hum tum (Lata Rafi)
Tehriye Hosh me aaloon (Rafi and ?)
(watch out for Rafi in this, he is at his romantic best, expressions of gentle loving persuasion are all there!!)
Phoool Barsate huye (Lata , KK)
will be back with some more...
SRK, "O Majhi re" is in "Khushboo". "Hazar rahen" is in "Thodi si bewafayee".

SL: Sorry Cauvery-kkum namakkum romba dooram. Namma sangam-valartha madurai mann anne:)
Yes, "Aap yun hi agar " is not Phir subah hogi. Gosh!How many mistakes I am going to make tonight!There is a song with similar lyrics in PSH . Cant remember now:(
Which movie is (another one for you, Bull!)
"Mile na fool(Gosh! This word again!) to
Kaaton se dosti kar li"?

wow! what a flurry of postings today!
Raj - are you thinking of "phir na kije" from Phir Subha Hogi (Mukesh/Asha) - one of my favourites of Khayyam.
Raj (@ mast*) on: Mon Mar 22 16:28:31
Nalini: That doesnt still ring a bell. Could you post more lines from "Phir na keje"? I remember it goes something like a dialogue.."suno, kaho.." somethinG like that.
Raj (@ mast*) on: Mon Mar 22 16:51:19
I think it is
"Dekhiye..aap ne phir pyaar se dekha humko"
nalini (@ 169.*) on: Mon Mar 22 17:06:24
That's the one. Same as "phir na kije" - different lines from the same song.
The beginning as I remember:
M: phir na keeje mEri gustaak nigaahon ka gilaa
dekhiyE aap ne phir pyaar se dekhaa mujhko
A: Main kahaan tak ye nigaahon ko palatnE dEti
aap ke dil ne ka_i baar pukaaro mujhko
Raj (@ mast*) on: Mon Mar 22 17:13:45
Nalini: Thanks. Now, how about transalation?:)))

Raj:
"Aasmaan pe hai khuda" etc you mentioned were all inspired by the then popular music from "Come September".

Yes Raj, I am your PGW buddy!
