#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
(Birthday – Music Composer-Rajesh Roshan)
Today 24th May is the birthday of music director-lyricist Rajesh Roshan (born on 24.05.1955, some sources mentione the year as 1953). He is one of my favorite all time composer.
I had written about him in couple of my earlier posts on the blog. What I wrote about him in the past is worth repeating it on this occasion. During my school days, our cricket playing group used to meet every evening at the Colony recreation club. after going throught the news papers/magazines kept there, we would start discussing various topics. Hindi films and Songs were naturally a topic of common interest. Our favourite films and songs frequently got discussed there.

Today’s song is from a social film, Actor-1951.
The film was produced by Kerawala and Bhojani for the banner of Sarosh Pictures, Bombay. It was directed by Ramji Bhai Arya, for whom this was his last film as a Director. He had spilled over from the Silent films. He started as an assistant to several directors before starting as an independent director of Talkie films. He directed films like Hindi ke laal-40, Manthan-41, Jungle ki pukar-46, Bhedi Dushman-46 and Sher e dushman-47. There were 2 Music Directors – Aziz Hindi and Ibrahim. Both names had an aura of mystery around them.

Usually, on this blog, we find ourselves digging through the dusty bins of the 1940s and 50s, looking for a rare Geeta Dutt or a forgotten C. Ramchandra gem. But every once in a while, a song comes along in the modern era that feels like it was written with a fountain pen in a rain-soaked balcony, far away from the noisy “reels” and “trends” of today.
In the world of Hindi film music, we often talk about the “Golden Era” as if it were a closed chapter. But every so often, an artist emerges who reminds us that the spirit of that era—the focus on baat (the word) and ehsaas (the feeling)—is very much alive.
Today’s song is a viral miracle. It’s titled “Chor“, released in early 2024 by an independent artist who goes by the name Justh. This song is by the artist whose journey is as unconventional as his name. Justh (who keeps his legal name private, asserting that “Justh” is a word he has given meaning to) was once a Chartered Accountant. In interviews, he mentions that he didn’t “shift” careers as much as he finally found the correct vehicle to express his thoughts about the universe. He draws deep inspiration from the honesty of legends like Rabindranath Tagore, aiming for an art that is “truthful” rather than just “impressive.”

Things do not get any more rare than this. Plus celebrations like today’s, also do not get any more better and rare.
Milestones is a habit now long forgotten on this blog. No, I do not mean to say we do not celebrate. But it has now become a matter of routine. However, a milestone such as today, came to fore after a journey of more than 17 years. And that too – we can just bask in this glory for a few hours more. Night will fall, the sun will rise, and this milestone will be left behind – forever.
In five decades of recorded data (1931-80), there is an estimated approximation – about 45 thousand songs, give or take. Beyond that, another 45 years of an industry that I and more in my category have not tracked sincerely. But taking just a crude estimate, let us say, another 40 thousand songs. We are talking of a huge repository that is about 85 thousand songs. I am sure, it is a number that cannot be matched by any other segment of the industry world wide. And if I take a look at the counter on the top of this article, a whopping 20+ percent of that repository is already showcased on Atul-Song-a-Day.
A moment it takes to absorb this. Time to ruminate, to contemplate and to let this number sink in inside.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
———————————————————————
Today’s song is a nice composition from the movie ‘Daku Mangal Singh-1966’. Lyrics for this song were sent by Prakashchandra long back. Listeni8ng to songs like this (that I had not heard before), I am beginning to realise that apart from the songs that we grw up listening to (that we fondly remember), there many be thousands of songs that we could never listen to. Seing that most of these songs belonged to obscure movies, it is unlikely that music lovers will ever listen to these forgotten songs.
