बदल दो इरादा

One of the ten documented songs of Irada (1944), this number echoes the film's title in its opening words — a plea to 'change your resolve'. Like the rest of the soundtrack it carries music by Pandit Amarnath and lyrics by Aziz Kashmiri, released on the Columbia label. The available catalogues preserve the title and credits but no singer attribution for this track.

Pandit Amarnath sets the song in the period's standard Calcutta chamber style, with harmonium and tabla framing the melody and sarangi colouring the appeal in its lyrical title. As a number built around a plea to change one's mind, the composition would have leaned on a measured tempo and an expressive, speech-like vocal line in the wartime film-song idiom Amarnath worked in.
