I found a totally mad song my friend and myself had created. We put it up on facebook and it generated so many comments, including a proposal for a music video!
So Vrinda and myself got talking about Daler Mehndi, the deteriorating music industry, and how nowadays most lyricists just reshuffle the words, add in some new music and give you the latest "hit". So we decided to write a song to see if we could achieve the same level of industry professionalism. Of course, for quality purposes and your entertainment's sake, we made sure that we stayed true to the "true" spirit of Bollywood. The song consists of a modern day Juliet cavorting around a garden (or public place of her choice), trying to woo a reluctant Romeo. She makes use of various literary and song devices such as "heavily Indian-accented" rap, "sexually suggestive" metaphors and certain onomatopoeic words to portray her anguish. Okay so that was a load of rubbish. We figured that if we just threw together a bunch of overused and cliched Bollywood lyrics, we would hit upon the perfect song. So line after line was regurgitated, and we now present to you - Daler ka Jalwa!
Daler Ka Jalwa (to be sung to the tune of either Vande Mataram or any Daler Mehndi song)
Aja soniye, nach baliye
Mera ghaghra, chan chan
Husn ka jalwa, mal mal
Pyaar ke maare
Hai hai, dil dil
Pyar ke bhooke, humse aake mil mil
Ab chodo bhi, ishq ho gaya
(to be rapped in an indian accent)Baby you're so hot, sexy and cool. i want to touch you, make me your fool
(to be sung in a totally insane manner, with wild hand gestures and curious facial expressions)CHIKA BIKA RIKA X5
Anchal ke sahare, jeevan beet gaya
Dil dhadak raha hai
Sansein machal rahi hai
Zulf bikhrey hain, pyaar ka nasha chadh gaya hai
Yaadon me khoi khoi
Chupke chupke se
(to be rapped in an indian accent)Will you be my lover, i'll take you for chai with my mother
(you know what to do here! Add some variations like hip thrusting.)
CHIKA BIKA RIKA X5
Ek ladki chui mui
Khidki sey jhaankti
Teri nigaahen, meri adaein
Chhuye mere dil, Mil gayi manzil
Dil naache chham chham
Badan milaein hum tum
(to be rapped in an indian accent)Will you be my partner, o partner, my heart is racing, so take me to the daacter, o daacter
(Daler never tires and neither should you. Keep those hips going!)
