Pehlaaa...Nashaaa..is really Pehlaaa...Nashaaa..

My Reminisces

NEW DELHI,INDIA


I am writing this post after hearing Amit Paul's song Pehla Nasha...I went down the memory lane.

In the Bollywood industry of music churning songs, there can be no song as sweet as pehlaaaa… nashaaaa…pehla khumar…, naya pyar he naya intezaaarrrrrr from the movie Jo Jeeta Wahi Sinkander Sikanader strumming the ‘love ’ hearts of young boys and girls. Yes, there is no song as melodic, as touching as pehala.. nasha….pehla ..pyar.. he..

The song has the same nasha of opium - once smitten, you get addicted to it. The song right from its lyrics, to choreography, to presentation is marvelous, superb. I cannot stop praising the song, the story plot, and the characterization of the actors of the movie.

The song pehala.. nasha….pehla ..pyar.. he.. has acquired a special space in my heart and in my consciousness. It has been able to make an indelible mark in my life. I find the song carry the same freshness when it was released in 1992. Still it evokes the same feelings of love in me. It oozes out the days of youthfulness of my teenage days, and the days of peep into the girl’s domain. It makes me feel and smell the days when air of love was sweeping, swirling all around in the environment.

The film beautifully depicts my masti and nasha days what we five friends were religiously following and involved in school. At the time of release of the movie I was in Kashmir and I still remember we friends - with a Walkman tuned to this song - lie on the layer of the newly fallen snow in one corner of the playground and our five heads looking at the sky. All mesmerized by the deadly mixture of the song and the Kashmir’s fiza had created. Not to forget the age we were passing and the chemistry of first, second,…crush.

It was the winter season of Kashmir, and we all five friends (the strength of our class) dressed in black leather jacket and sunglasses, only to save us from the bone-chilling winter breeze, got infected from this song. Aahhhh! Going very personal. I love to store my beautiful personal days only to me. Sorry!!! I went down the memory lane.

I can’t imagine the same song casts the same affect that it used to 15 years ago on me.

I was on top of the world...and this song very well describes it.

I would say - every one who has been in love...this is a song!! pehlaaaa… nashaaaa…pehla khumar…, naya pyar he naya intezaaarrrrrr…

About this song and the movie, I don’t have words to praise all those people who have worked behind the camera and in front of the camera, in making this millennium movie.

My inquisitive about this movie have made me to jot down all those people who worked in the movie and to mention some trivial facts.

Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikander

Directed by Mansoor Khan
Produced by Nasir Hussain
Written by Mansoor Khan
Starring:
Aamir Khan (its me)
Pooja Bedi (for which my heart beats momentarily)
Ayesha Jhulka (for which my heart beat always)
Deepak Tijori (I hate him most)
Music by Jatin Lalit (who prompted me to fall in love)

Trivial facts:

It was this movie that catapulted Jatin-Lalit to success. This movie was their second movie together.

The song Pehla Nasha was the first song choreographed by Farah Khan.

Girija, Geethanjali fame, directed by Maniratnam was signed on to be in Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander and also shot most of the movie when the director felt she was too stunted as an actress and replaced with Ayesha Jhulka and reshot. If you observe closely, there is one song in the movie with Girija dancing with Amir and the rest.
