Tere Jahanse Chal Diye, Dete Hue Duwayein Ham.....




Tere Jahan Se Chal Diye- Kishore, Asha Bhosle- Film Rukhsana 1955- Lyrics Khumar Barabanki- Music Sajjad Hussain.



Talwars film Rukhsana, released in 1955,was a romantic adventure film, with a story that unfolds in a non discreet medieval kingdom. All the ingredients of romance and thrills are there. a weak-willed monarch, his beautiful daughter, a bold rebel who wins her heart, an evil vazeer, discontented subjects, and an ambitious princess. The lead pair was Kishore Kumar and Meena Kumari as Prince and Princess. The music was given by eminent albeit much underrated composer Sajjad Hussain. 

Despite having renowned star cast like Kishore Kumar, Meena Kumari and Shammi , the film flopped miserably due to stereo typed weak plot presented in stereotype way, the poor character development. The The logic defying coincidences, the unconvincing events bespeaks the amateurish direction. The absurd fights turn the film into farce.

Amidst all the gloomy things though, there is something to cheer about. Meena kumari as princess Rukhsana is beautiful,young and fresh. Kishore as prince makes his absurd role believable by his sheer acting skills. Sajjad's Hussain had given sparkling music in Sangdil earlier, but his music in thei film is comparatively lack lusture. The three songs " Tera Dard Dilme Basa Diya" , Kishore- Asha duet " Tere Jahanse Chal Diye", and Asha Bhosle solo" Tumhe Ham Yaad Karte Hai" ,however are superb and in his usual Sajjad style. It is because of these three songs, that the otherwise forgotten film is now remembered by avid listeners of Hindi Film Music.

After the success of Sangdil (1952), Sajjad did not land any work for three long years. And although Rukhsana had a perfectly respectable musical score, he did not get to make music for another eight years! This when he was at his prime. Rukhsana was the only film in which Sajjad picked Kishore Kumar. That even genius can be wrong is demonstrated by the fact that Sajjad Hussain would jokingly refer to the singer as ‘Shor’ Kumar! While I prefer this Asha-Kishore duet, there is another solo version of this song in Asha Bhosle’s voice that’s worth a listen too....
तेरे जहाँ से चल दिए 
देते हुए दुवाएँ हम 
तेरा ख़ुदा भला करे
सहते रहे जफ़ाएँ हम
शौक से ग़म उठाएंगे 
शिकवे न लब पे लाएंगे 
दिल में उठेगा दर्द जब 
देंगे तुझे दुआएँ हम 
होता हमें जो ये पता 
होना पडेगा यूँ जुदा 
कदमों पे तेरे देते जां 
लेके तेरी बलाएँ हम 
जाते हैं अब सलाम ले 
दर्द भरा पयाम ले 
मिलने की मांग ना दुआ
याद कभी जो आये हम 
तेरे जहाँ से चल दिए देते हुए दुवाएँ हम 


तेरे जहाँ से चल दिए 
देते हुए दुवाएँ हम 
तेरा ख़ुदा भला करे
सहते रहे जफ़ाएँ हम
शौक से ग़म उठाएंगे 
शिकवे न लब पे लाएंगे 
दिल में उठेगा दर्द जब 
देंगे तुझे दुआएँ हम
होता हमें जो ये पता 
होना पडेगा यूँ जुदा 
कदमों पे तेरे देते जां 
लेके तेरी बलाएँ हम 
जाते हैं अब सलाम ले
प्यार भरा पयाम ले
दफ़्न हो तेरे कुचमें 
बदले वफ़ा के पाए हम..
