Movie:- Ijaazat (1987) Starcast:- Anuradha Patel, Naseeruddin Shah Singer:- Asha Bhosle Lyricist:- Gulzar Music Director:- R D Burman Mera Kuch Samaan (Hindi: मेरा कुछ सामान, literally: Some of my things) is a popular song from the acclaimed 1987 movie Ijaazat, directed by Gulzar, who also wrote the song. The song was composed by R D Burman and sung byAsha Bhosle. In the film, the song takes cue from the poem, Maya (Anuradha Patel) leaves behind in letter, for her former lover Mahinder (Naseeruddin Shah), asking him to return her things. As he read on, he finds they are not physical things she wants back, but memories of times spent together.[1] The song remains one of singer Asha Bhosle's most popular,[2] and her personal favourite, as in a 2005 interview to the The Fader magazine, calling it autobiographical, she said, "Mera Kuch Samaan..This song is my life." [3] In a 2010 tweet, singer Asha Bhosle, noted, "Pancham jokingly referred to song Mera Kuch Samaan as 'Luggage Song'. My band members still call it that when we are on concert tour".[4 Even at the time of its release the song was noted, and even "ahead of its times",[1] for its unusual non-rhyming lyrics in free verse, and for blurring the line between poem and lyric.[5] When Gulzar first showed the non-rhyming lyrics to RD Burman, he jokingly complained that Gulzar would next ask him to set a newspaper headline to music.[6] The soft music composition chosen by RD Burman, kept the focus completely on the vocals and the words, it not only highlight the unusual lyrics, but also brought Asha versatility as a singer to the fore. It pitted Asha in "a league apart from her contemporaries" and made it one of her best songs.[1] She won her second National Film Award for Best Female Playback Singer for the song of 1988, the first one being for Dil Cheez Kya Hai from Umrao Jaan (1981).[7] Ulhas Bapat, veteran santoor player, who had collaborated with Burman since 1978 until his last film, 1942 A Love Story, played santoor in song's interludes, especially innovative meend pieces.[8] WIKIPEDIA
