Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Basu Chatterjee's movies in the 70s are a treat to watch even today. Simple story, elegant execution, lovely songs, natural acting - what a risk it must've been in that era of gory and violent Hindi movies! Listed below are some of my all time favourites.
Jab deep jale aana - Chitchor
Tu jo mere sur mein - Chitchor
Na jaane kyon - Choti si baat
Jane-e-mann - Choti si baat
Meine tere liye - Anand
Zindagi - Anand
Loote koyi - Abhimaan
Tere mere milan ki - Abhimaan
I wanted to include songs from 'Chashme Buddoor' along too even though it was directed by Sai Paranjpe and came out in the 80s but couldn't find any links.
P.S. - Like the title says, this will be the last of the Friday melody series. It started of like this one (last) July Friday and for the past 2 years, it has been fun playing the DJ! I guess, it will be kind of itchy the next few Fridays but I've almost run out of ideas, enthu' (and end it before I run out of audience)! A big Thanks everyone!!

You could have signed off with 'Paattaale buththi sonnaar'(to all timepass software ppl!)
FM-illadha aadha-va? Ninaichu kooda parkkaa mudiyale..
You could have had FM wherein the theme is not on one particular word but a concept; like, e.g., 'Tamil maadhangal'. "Margazhi poove", "Vaikasi nilave", "Chithirai sevvanam/nilavu", "Aadi pattam", etc..
Hmm.. oru mudiveduthutteenga.. All good things have to come to an end!! Thanks to you for being a DJ for 2 years!! :-)
