Bina Badra Ke Bijuriya Kaise Chamke - Bandhan by Mukesh

Bina Badra Ke Bijuriya Kaise Chamke - Bandhan works because it does not try to do too much — it finds one feeling and holds it perfectly. Kalyanji, Anandji sets the tone from the very first bar — it is clear from the opening notes that this song means business.

The vocal on Bina Badra Ke Bijuriya Kaise Chamke - Bandhan is among the better performances Mukesh has committed to record. Hearing Bina Badra Ke Bijuriya Kaise Chamke - Bandhan without thinking of Rajesh Khanna, Mumtaz, Birbal is almost impossible for anyone who has seen Bandhan.

1969 was a strong year for Hindi music, and Bina Badra Ke Bijuriya Kaise Chamke - Bandhan was among the reasons why. It is the kind of track that works at full volume with friends and equally well in a quiet room alone — the mood adjusts without the song changing.

At 3:17, the track does not overstay its welcome — it says what it needs to say and leaves the listener wanting more. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Hindi in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
