Thank you for adding that to the list, Ashokji. <i>Raat suhani</i> is a 'new' old song; I haven't heard it for a long, long time and it completely slipped my mind. So also <i>Raat suhaani jaag rahi hai</i>. The picturisation is awful, isn't it? for such a lovely slow song?Anu Warrierhttp://anuradhawarrier.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309362817539389132.post-89528737732295478992013-01-29T23:00:09.255-05:002013-01-29T23:00:09.255-05:00May I add:

Nights are my favorite time of the day (??) - the whole house goes to sleep, the dishwasher hums in the background, and I listen to old songs, go through Atul's blog, or just read a book or work on some sewing project with music in the background. It goes back to my college days when I found studying late at night worked well for me since everyone would be fast asleep and I could concentrate better. Later, somebody moved into one of the flats next door and would whistle these old songs and I would lie awake in bed, hoping he would whistle just one more song!<br />Here is a "raat" song on Raj Kapoor and Nargis:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHQTpi2WBTU&feature=related<br /><br />The video is a little fuzzy but the audio is still good.Lalitha Jairamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309362817539389132.post-70491952448583241312011-09-27T23:58:05.231-04:002011-09-27T23:58:05.231-04:00Oh, I didn't see your correction.

The song from Gaman was 'somewhat new' for me - I mean, I'd heard it before, but so long back that I had no clue about the song when I saw it in your post. It's only when I heard it that I remembered it. Wonderful, wonderful song! Thank you.<br /><br /><i>Beheegi Bheegi raaton mein</i> is such a fun number, and a 'baarish' song too.

In fact two of them are on my chandaa list as well!<br /><br />BTW isn't it raat kali ek khwab me aayi?<br />somehow the song 'Raat bhar ka hai mehmaan andhera' gives me the goosebumps. I know it is a song full of hope but it has more than halo of despair to it,at least for my ears!<br />Love the way you have chosen different flavours of raat songs. One that of waiting would be 'aaj ki raat koi aane ko hai re baba from Anamika<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdh1p7WkPyM<br />Helen looks like a candy in wrapper, but the song is great, with the typical Pancham prelude to it!<br /><br />Another song which I like alot is 'Aadhi raat jab chand dhale' from Paheli with Gulzar's lyrics<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD_VSirx8PE<br /><br />A song with classical base and of very dark night shade is 'Aap ki yaad aati rahi' from Gaman with music by Jaidev! Love this!<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlFXtzd4o38<br /><br />Another Pancham song on raat with phahadi touch to it, which I love is 'bhegi, bheegi raaton me' from Ajnabee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEwvZvg6Bd4<br /><br />And two from Raj Kapoor films:<br />Ab raat guzarne wali hai from Awara <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-idT7ibGXs<br /><br />Yeh raat bheegi, bheegi from Chori chori<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6E3YpLQYcU<br /><br />I know, I haven't abided b your rule of starting the song with the word raat, but I just got carried away!
