Jab We Met – Yeh Ishq Haaye Translation/Lyrics September 27, 2008

Yeh Ishq Haaye

haan Hai Koi to wajah
yes, there must be some reason
To jeena ka maza yun aane laga
That I’m enjoying my life like this
Yeh hawaon mein hai kya
what is this in the breeze
Thoda sa jo naasha yun chane laga
That a sight of intoxication has entered me
Pucho na pucha mujhe kya
Don’t ask what happened to me
Hua hai teri raahon mein aakar Pucho na pucha na
Coming in your path
Pucho na pucha mujhe kya
Don’t ask what I’ll get
Milega teri bahon mein aakar
Coming in your arms

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
this love gives a glimpse of heaven
Jannat dikhaye haan
showed me heaven, oh yes
O raama
o God
Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan

Todi mene sare hi bandhan zamane Tere
I have broken all constraints of the world
Todongi na mein vada
but I will not break promise [to you]
Aadha hissa mere to dil ki kahani ka tu
half of my heart’s story is you
Piya Mein baaki aadha
my beloved, I am another half

Dekho na dekho mujhe hua hai
look what has happened to me
Teri yaadhon mein kho kar
Lost in your memories

Pucho na pucha mujhe kya
Don’t ask what has happened to me
Milega teri baton mein jeekar
Living in your talks

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan
O raama
Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan

Mere jaise lakho mile honge
Tujhko piya
you, my darling, must have found thousands like me
Mujhe to mila tuu hi
yet you are the only one for me

Tu hi mere hooton ki khilti hui se hasi
you are the blossoming smile on my lips
Gila bhi piya tu hi
My complaint is to you too

Dekho na dekho mujhe kya hua hai
look what happened to me
Tujhe sapno mein lakar dekho na dekho
by bringing you in my dreams

Pucho na pucha mujhe kya
Hua hai teri baaton mein aakar

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan
O raama
Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan

haan Hai Koi to wajah
To jeena ka maza yun aane laga

Yeh hawaon mein hai kya
Thoda sa jo naasha yun chane laga
Pucho na pucha mujhe kya

Hua hai teri raahon mein aakar Pucho na pucha na
Pucho na pucha mujhe kya
Milega teri bahon mein aakar

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan
O raama

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan

Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan
O raama
Yeh Ishq Haaye Baithe bithaye
Jannat dikhaye haan

Kabhi Kabhi Aditi Zindagi Lyrics + Translation June 28, 2008

Kabhi kabhi Aditi zindagi mein yunhi koi apna lagta hai
Sometimes in life, Aditi, just like that someone seems like your own
Kabhi kabhi woh bichhad jaaye to ek sapna lagta hai
Sometimes Aditi, when they are separated, it seems like a dream
Aise mein koi kaise apne aansuon ko behne se roke?
In such, how can anyone stop their tears from flowing
Aur kaise koi soch le everything’s gonna be okay?
And how can someone think everything’s going to be okay

Kabhi kabhi to lage zindagi mein rahi na khushi aur na mazaa
Sometimes it seems there is no happiness nor fun left in life
Kabhi kabhi to lage har din mushkil aur har pal ek sazaa
Sometimes it seems every day is difficult, every moment is a punishment
Aise mein koi kaise muskuraaye kaise hans de khush hoke?
In such, how can someone smile, or be happy and laugh
Aur kaise koi soch le everything’s gonna be okay?
And how can they think everything’s going to be okay

Soch zara jaan-e-jaan tujhko humein kitna chahte hain
Think dear, how much I/we care for you (He could mean I or We)
Rote hain hum bhi agar teri aankhon mein aansoo aate hain
If there are tears in your eyes, I/we cry too
Gaana to aata nahin hai magar phir bhi hum gaate hain
I/We don’t know how to sing, but yet I/we sing
Hey, Aditi.. Maan kabhi kabhi saare jahaan mein andhera hota hai
Hey Aditi, believe for a minute that there is darkness in the entire world
Lekin raat ke baad hi to savera hota hai
But it’s only after night that day comes

Kabhi kabhi Aditi zindagi mein yunhi koi apna lagta hai
Kabhi kabhi woh bichhad jaaye to ek sapna lagta hai

Hey, Aditi.. hans de, hans de, hans de, hans de, hans de.. Hans de tu zara
Hey Aditi, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh a little
Nahin to bas thoda, thoda, thoda, thoda, thoda.. Thoda muskura
Or else just give a little, little, little, little smile

Tu khush hai to lage ke jahan mein chhayee hai khushi
If you are happy, it seems the world is filled with happiness
Sooraj nikle baadalon se aur baante zindagi
The sun emerges from the clouds and spreads life
Sun to zara madhosh hawa tujhse kehne lagi
Listen, what the intoxicating wind is telling you
Ke Aditi woh jo bichhadte hain ek na ek din phir mil jaate hain
That Aditi, those who are separated, one day do meet again
Aditi jaane tu ya jaane naa phool phir khil jaate hain
Aditi, whether you know it or not, flowers do bloom again

Kabhi kabhi Aditi zindagi mein yunhi koi apna lagta hai
Kabhi kabhi woh bichhad jaaye to ek sapna lagta hai

Hey, Aditi.. hans de, hans de, hans de, hans de, hans de.. Hans de tu zara..
Nahin to bas thoda, thoda, thoda, thoda, thoda.. Thoda muskura..

Ada – Meherbaan Lyrics and Translation June 25, 2008

Translation underneath lyrics

Tu Hai Zabaan, Main Hoon Bayaan
Tu Hai Neha, Main Hoon Haya

Tere Bina Main Hoon Be Zameen,
Tere Bina Main Be Aasma

Tu Hai Nadiyaan, Main Hoon Sangam
Tu Naya Saal, Main Pehla Mausam

Tere Bina Main Hoon Be Zameen,

Tere Bina Main Be Aasma,
Tere Bina Main Hoon Be Zameen,
Tere Bina…..

Meherbaan …..

Tu Hai Sana, Main Hoon Ana
Tu Hahteli, Main Hoon Hena

Aaj Elaan Yeh Kar Denge, Hum Ek Hai Ek Rahenge
Jo Aajaye Koi Toofan , Kabhi Raah Se Hum Nah Hathenge
Is Berangi Duniya Ko, Pyar Se Hum Rang Denge
Wafa Ka Diya Jalayenge, Har Ghar Mein Noor Bahenge

Tu Hai Nazar, Main Nazara
Tu Hai Sagar, Main Kinara
Tu Hai Zabaan, Main Hoon Bayaan
Tu Hai Neha, Main Hoon Haya

Meherbaan

Translation:
You are the language, I am the meaning
You are beauty, I am modesty

Withoutyou I am landless,
Without you I am skyless
You are the rivers, I am the confluence
You are the new eve, I am the first season

Without you I am landless,
Without you I am skyless,
Without you I am landless,
Without you…..

Kindness…..

You are eulogy, I am grace
You are the palm, I am the mehndi (decoration)
Today we will announce that we are one and will always stay one,
Even if a storm comes, we will never move from the path
We will colour this colourless world with love,
We will light up the lamp of faith, light will flow in every house

You are the vision, I am the sight
You are the sea, I am the shore
You are the language, I am the meaning
You are beauty, I am modesty

Sarkar Raj Review June 10, 2008

Lately, RGV movies have been pretty crappy. In fact, that last good decent RGV movie I can think of is Sarkar, the first one (which was a pretty good movie). It’s so difficult to create a sequel to a successful movie because of the expectations, that’s why most sequels are only half as good. Or maybe its because sequels are just created for more business/money and for that reason, most of them suck.

Anyway, Sarkar Raj is an exception. It is a well directed thriller. The script is outstanding, along with the plot – which is full of surprises. There are many scenes and dialogues that leave a mark. The supporting cast is top-notch. Amitabh Bachchan is teriffic and takes the film to great heights. Abshishek and Aishwarya also deliver amazing performances. It’s one of those movies where each and every actor plays their parts flawlessly.

Rating: 4/5

On Himesh Reshammiya March 13, 2007

Lately I’ve been hearing a lot on Himesh. On how he has “no talent” and is nasal-voiced and what not. I even saw this on Aaj Tak. I was just surprised at how many jealous singers, music directors and people we have in the Bollywood industry. Just because Himesh is soaring, everyone seems to be criticizing him these days. Not to mention that he did not receive ANY awards this year at the Filmfare Awards. Let us not forget that he delivered a whopping 36 hits this year, a feat done by no other. Sure he is nasal voiced, but he obviously has some magic in his songs and I’m sure that even those of you who dislike him have danced along to his songs!

Personally, I think Himesh is talented as a playback and obviously as a composer too. What do you think?

Blog + Success March 4, 2007

It’s been a great run thus far. The blog has appeared on various “Top Posts” or “Top Growing Blogs on WordPress” (#29 yesterday) and we’ve even been interviewed by the huge Canadian radiostation CBC (owned by the Government of Canada).

I also appreciate all the people who actually come out and comment, I love reading the feedback and comments and I would like to encourage everyone to do so. So far our record is 701 unique visits in a day (two visits by someone counts as one visit, 100 visits by someone counts as 1, per day and my visits do not count).

Overall I’d like to thank everyone, and I encourage you all to comment!

Thanks!

52nd Filmfare Awards, Results. February 26, 2007

Best Film
Rang De Basanti
-Well deserved.

Best Actor
Hrithik Roshan – Dhoom 2
-There were no real nominations. SRK sucked as Vijay in Don so it was automatically gone, I’m sure Kabhi Alvida probably didn’t deserve any awards. It was a toss up between Aamir Khan and Hrithik.
Although, SRK got nominated for Don despite playing a negative role, where was Aamir’s nomination for Best Actor for Fanaa?

Best Actress
Kajol – Fanaa
-Hmm, Kareena Kapoor was brilliant in Omkara. I think she was more deserving.

Best Director
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra – Rang De Basanti
-Right on!

Best editing
P S Bharati – Rang De Basanti
-Bollywood definately LACKS editing skills, but it was good in RDB.

Best Story
Lage Raho Munnabhai
-No way…

Best Screenplay
Jaideep Sahni – Khosla Ka Ghosla
-Wow, totally unexpected but I TOTALLY agree. I didn’t think they would even nominate it.

Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Male)
Abhishek Bachchan – Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna

Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Female)
Konkona Sen Sharma – Omkara
-Deserving, although Soha Ali Khan was pretty good too.

Best Actor in a Comic Role
Arshad Warsi – Lage Raho Munnabhai
-Definately the best OUT of the nominations. But again, why didn’t they nominate Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav?
VERY DISAPPOINTING, where are the REAL nominations?

Best Actor in a Negative Role
Saif Ali Khan – Omkara
-Of course!

Best Music
A R Rahman – Rang De Basanti
-Mithoon atleast deserved a nomination.

Best Lyrics
Prasoon Joshi – Chand Sifarish (Fanaa)
-I’d have to ask Pingu about this one, hehe.

Best Playback (Male)
Shaan and Kailash Kher (Fanaa)
-Toss up between Chand Sifarish and Tere Bina from Atif.

Best Playback (Female)
Sunidhi Chauhan – Beedi (Omkara)
-Well deserved.

Best Cinematography
Binod Pradhan – Rang De Basanti
-Right on!

R. D. Burman Award
-I COULDN’t BELIEVE THIS, MITHOON deserved this award, not the dude who won it. Very disappointing.

-The awards seemed sort of cheaply done. The sets, stage, everything was cheap. So much for being the called the Indian “Academy Awards”.
-Needed a better host than SRK. Someone funnier.
-Obviously need better judges, better nominations.
-Filmfare needs to stop sucking upto the Johar-Bachchan-SRK-Chopra camp.
-Himesh delivered a lot of hits in the year, composed great music, he deserved atleast one award. Even if they had created a special award for him. I’ve noticed that a lot of people are envious of his success. I don’t understand it.
-Good performance by Hrithik, Bipasha’s performance wasn’t all that. Sri Devi, wow she looks the same, well done, very impressive! Good job by A.R Rehman as well.
-Overall I think Filmfare is losing it’s touch, IIFA awards are better to watch.

Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd. Movie Review February 25, 2007

First of all, I’d like to say that I had high expectations from this movie. One it was a Farhan Akhtar production and two, the trailers were very appealing.

It was a good entertainer, although there was no real plot that sort of combined all the couples (if that was what you were expecting) but anyway there were sub-plots, sort of. They were all interesting, and definately unexpected. Acting-wise, I thought Kay Kay was amazing and he definately left a mark but everyone else was pretty good too. Although Vikram Atwal wasn’t all that good, but I guess they needed a foreigner for that role. Ranveer Shorey (one of my favourite actors, great comedian too) was DEFINATELY wasted, as IndiaFM stated. I was really looking forward to his role, but it only lasted a few minutes, but even then, he acted great.

Abhay and Minnisha (or however her astrologer makes her spell it) were cute, Kay Kay and Raima were also adorable. All of the couples had decent stories. The director did an excellent job (even better considering it was her debut).

Overall a good entertainer, definately worth watching.
