NUTAN AND “JOGI JAB SE TU AAYA MERAY DWAARE...”

                                            


                                                                                                                                                                                




NUTAN  AND “JOGI JAB SE TU AAYA MERAY DWAARE...”

Apart from training in classes and institutions , prospective  actors /   budding artists   also learn a lot by watching some great artists / actors . They learn how to express the untold without uttering a word. They learn how to smile within and express it without a laughter. 

I believe much can be learnt from Nutan if we watch her movies .  Watch her  singing " Jogi jab se tu aaya meray dwaare"   for Bimal Da 's Bandhini . None except great Nutan could have done justice to the happy and emotive beats of Shailendra's lyrics. Great and  sensitive  masters like Bimal Da  , S D Burman, Nutan and Shilendra are in fact great schools of learning four different aspects of cinematic creativity.

Nutan acted in about 70 Hindi films in a career span of about 40 years . Her father, Kumarsen Samarth, was a reputed film director while her mother , Shobhana, and her sister Tanuja, were actresses. She worked hard to taste success and earn five film fare awards. 

Nutan had written several poems and Bhajans . She used to read lot of books and literature. .Dev Anand had once remarked that she was among a few actresses with whom one could have an intelligent conversation.

A former Miss India (1952), she died in 1991 (age 54 Years ) fighting a prolonged battle against lung cancer.

And she received her early education at La Chanteine, Switzerland..

Here is the complete song and my English Rendering ....

Jogi Jab se tu aaya meray dwaare
Meray rang gaye saanjh sakaare
Tu to akhiyon se jaane jee ki batiyaan
To se milnaa hi julam bhayaa re....

Meethi meethi agan yeh
keh na sakoongi
Me tu chhuyi mooyi abla re
Seh na sakoongi
Meray aur nikat mat aa re

……….Jogi jab se tu aaya meray dwaare
           Meray rang gaye saanjh sakaare

Ja ke panghat pe bethoon me radha deewani,
Bina jal liye chali aaoon radha deewani,
Mohe ajab ye rog lagaa re..

…………Jogi jab se tu aaya meray dwaare
             Meray rang gaye saanjh sakaare

Dekhi saanvli soorat ye naina judaaye
Teri chhub dekhi jab se re naina judaaye
Bhaye bin kajraa ye kajraare

…….Jogi jab se tu aaya meray dwaare
       Meray rang gaye Saanjh sakaare …

( Shailendra )

In English I would say :………………….

O carefree Wanderer !
The day you landed in my life,
My mornings and evenings 
are just bright and colour filled.

Just a glance and You catch up 
with my innermost feelings, 
O Wanderer !
How remarkable has this meeting been ?

 How can i make it known ?
How can i divulge the secret of love’s enchanting blaze ?
A frail and “ touch me not” that I am ,
How can I withstand all this ?
Move not more closer now , love !

…...O carefree Wanderer !
The day you landed in my life,
My mornings and evenings
are just bright and colour filled.

Consumed by Krishna's love,
Like absent minded Radha,
I sit at the river bank.
Having come to fetch water,
Lost in your thoughts,
i return empty handed.
What a strange ordeal you have put me to?

….O carefree wanderer !
The day you landed in my life,
My mornings and evenings
are just bright and colour filled..

The day I saw your  dusky appearance,
I fell for you .
And your looks,
My eyes held them within ;
Black they appear now ,
Even in absence of Kohl ..

….O carefree wanderer !
The day you landed in my life,
My mornings and evenings
are just bright and colour filled.
