Asha Bhosle / Madan Mohan: Nazren Utha Ke Zara Dekh Le - Chacha Zindabad (1959)

A classic Rock n' Roll composition from Madan Mohan in Asha Bhosle's delightfully dynamic voice... this song is infused with a pulsating rhythm that makes you shake your body and the raucous sound of the trumpets blaring at full force can make your spirit soar.

And, in the midst of this wacky western rock n' roll ruckus, only Madan Mohan could find a way to blend in some classical Indian music phrases such as "Pa Ma Ga Re Sa Ni Pa Ni Ni Re Sa!"

I felt that the original video from the film was not doing justice to the driving beat of the song. Here, I have combined the original version of the video with video clips from a mix of Hollywood as well as Bollywood films and jazz and rock concerts.

I suggest that you turn the volume way up to experience the fervor of this blast from the past.
