Sputnik – Nice post thanks for sharing.
Nice post. It’s always such a pleasure to read abt Gulzar.I wish he takes to direction again.
Thanks aryan and Nilda.
@Nilda,
I had posted an interview of Vishal sometime back and he was saying that he has requested Gulzar to direct a movie and that he will produce it but that Gulzar was not interested.
Gulzar use to write a column in every edition of filmfare (this is part of it). It use to be in Filmfare archive but sadly they have removed it.
I love this song heard first time in college in Gulzar remembers Pacham. Most of the songs have commentry by Gulzar in his heavy baritone.
Did not know that Gulzar used to write a column in every edition of filmfare.
When I was in College there used to be these street hawkers who would sell old magazines on Sunday afternoons. You could get old magazines for 5 Rupees. Wish I had access to those magazines now.

I found one more scan of Gulzar’s Filmfare Interview which I will post in the next few days. Today its time for an Amitabh special 😉
@ Sputnik,
Ya i saw that interview, and was disappointed to know that he does not want to direct another movie.
One reason i like Vishal Bhardwaj’s movies is because he is so closely associated to Gulzar, as he himself mentioned in the interview that he is an extension of Gulzar…. that’s a bias i know.. 😉
Another favourite of mine from Gulzar is a not so known song from a movie called Sannata sung by Hemant Kumar. I love the lyrics of this one.
“Bas Ek Chup Si Lagi Hai Nahin Udaas Nahin
Kahin Pe Saans Ruki Hai
Nahin Udaas Nahin Bas Ek Chup SiLagi Hai
Koi Anokhi Nahin Aisi Zindagi Lekin
Khuub Na Ho…
Mili Jo ….Khuub Mili Hai
Nahin Udaas Nahin
Bas Ek Chup Si Lagi Hai
Sahar Bhi Ye Raat Bhi Dopahar Bhi Mili Lekin
Hamin Ne Shaam Chuni
Hamin Ne Shaam Chuni Hai…
Nahin Udaas Nahin….. Bas Ek Chup Si Lagi Hai
Vo Daasataan Jo Hamane Kahi Bhi Hamane Likhi….
Aaj Vo….
Khud Se Suni Hai
Nahin Udaas Nahin
Bas Ek Chup Si Lagi Hai”
@Nilda
You have made my day/week/month with that song. I had not heard it before. What a song !!
I love the lines..
“Sahar Bhi Ye Raat Bhi Dopahar Bhi Mili Lekin
Hamin Ne Shaam Chuni
Hamin Ne Shaam Chuni Hai…”
The mukhda…
“Bas Ek Chup Si Lagi Hai
.. Nahin Udaas Nahin”
Ahaha…
