Raj Kapoor's Shree 420 song 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya' was made on the name of the waiter, even after 70 years people don't know its meaning:

News Topical, Digital Desk : There are many songs that settle in our hearts. Whether we understand the story behind the song or the meaning of those songs or not, but their music is so solid that it is very difficult for fans to remove them from their memory.

One such song was filmed in the superhit film 'Shri 420' starring Hindi cinema's show man Raj Kapoor and Nargis Dutt. The title of the song was 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya'. This song from the film has been wooing cinema lovers for the past six decades. Apart from the songs 'Mera Juta Hai Japani' and 'Mud Mud Ke Na Dekh' from Shri 420, 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya' was the chart buster song of that year. Do you know what 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya' means? How was this entire song composed in the name of a waiter in the cult movie, let's know the interesting story behind it.

'Ramaiya Vastavaiya' was made with the order of tea and snacks

Not only the stories of Raj Kapoor 's films were famous, but the songs of his movies were also very special. After the success of Awara, when the showman prepared to make this film, he first worked on the music of the film. This story related to the song 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya' has been told on a YouTube channel.

Once when the duo of Shankar, Jaikishan, Hasrat Jaipuri and Shailendra went to Khandala, they found a Dhaba there which was their all time favourite. The four of them went to that Dhaba and waited for a waiter to come to take the orders. The name of a boy working at that Dhaba was 'Ramaiya' who had been working there for many years and was a Telugu. Shankar who had himself lived in Hyderabad called the waiter in Telugu, Ramaiya Vastavaiya.

What is the meaning of Ramaiya Vastavaiya?

The story does not end here. When Shankar used these words in Telugu, lyricist Shailendra liked these words very much and he started singing them in tune as Ramaiya Vastavaiya. However, on hearing these two words of Shailendra, Hasrat suddenly said 'Maine Dil Tujhko Diya' and thus the lines of this song were formed. When Shankar called 'Ramaiya' as 'Vastavaiya' in Telugu, it meant when will you come to us.

Jaikishan composed its music by giving beats with his hands on the tea table. When they came to Mumbai, they went straight to RK Studio to meet Raj Kapoor, where they played this song for him. Raj Kapoor was very happy with them. If you look carefully at the video of this song of Shree 420, then people are dancing while celebrating in a village, but on the other hand Nargis and Raj Kapoor are remembering each other and humming the lyrics (Vastavaiya-Kab Aaoge). This song was sung by Lata Mangeshkar, Mohammad Rafi and Mukesh.
