The love story in the upcoming movie Rocky and Rani, which will be released on July 28, is a topic of much discussion these days. By creating an updated rendition of ‘Jhumka Gira Re’, this movie makes an effort to pay homage to the iconic song from ‘What Jhumka’. Let us inform you that the song ‘Jhumka Gira Re Bareli Ke Bazaar Mein’ has an intriguing backstory that not many people are aware of. This song will become more well-known if you know that Amitabh Bachchan is strongly associated with it.
A well-known chowk in the town of Bareilly, which is famed for Soorma, was given the name Jhumka Chauraha as a result of the song's enormous popularity.
‘Jhumka Gira Re’ song is related to Amitabh Bachchan. India hadn't yet divided at the time. Raja Mehndi Sahab, Teji Suri, and Harivansh Rai Bachchan were good buddies who wrote lyrics. Raja Mehndi Sahib routinely went on business trips to Bareilly. Back then, everyone was familiar with Teji Suri, a daughter of Sardar Khajan Singh, and Harivansh Rai Bachchan, a famous poet. This love story started in Bareilly, a city.
Harivansh Rai Bachchan spread his writing's allure across the nation about 80 years ago, but he was also mourning the loss of his first wife and father at the time. Analysts claim that Harivansh visited his colleague Professor Jyoti Prakash's home to ring in the new year in order to end his loneliness. where he initially encountered Teji Suri. As soon as he noticed her, Harivansh's eyes went completely still. Ironically, Teji had already announced her engagement to a businessman. She wasn't pleased in this relationship either, though.
They experienced a romantic encounter during that New Year's Eve celebration. The poem was to be read by Harivansh. Hearing his poem caused Teji to start crying, and Harivansh started crying as well after seeing her. The professor left the room after observing the two of them' feelings, leaving them there by themselves. This was the language of love between the two. Then, Harivansh traveled to Allahabad and Teji proceeded to Lahore. But their love tale gained widespread recognition. After that, whenever he ran into one of them, he would always ask when they were getting married.
When Teji and Harivansh arrived in their separate towns, Teji Suri was questioned on a televised program by novelist Raja Mehdi Saheb, "When are you both getting married?" Teji gave a really lovely response. My earring "had fallen in the market of Bareilly itself." Teji intended to imply that she was heartbroken. They became engaged and intended to wed soon. Raja Saheb was taken aback by that specific line. He enjoyed this line so much that he kept remembering it for years. That's why he jumped at the opportunity when asked to write a song for the movie 'Mera Saaya'.
Teji Suri later married Harivansh Rai Bachchan and became Teji Bachchan, giving the film business a megastar in the form of Amitabh Bachchan.
