#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #

YEAR 1983-1

Recently our team member Peevesie’s Mom jee had shared a song from the movie ‘Naukar Biwi Ka’, which is a movie from the year 1983.

We know that this year -1983-was a special year from the point of view of Indian cricket lovers. It was in this year that the unfancied Indian Cricket Team unexpectedly won the Cricket World Cup.

As far as movies were concerned, 1983 was the year of comeback of Rajesh Khanna.

On the personal front, it was a very important year for me as a Cricket fan as well as a student. 1983 was the most important year of my student life. I had appeared and successfully 😊 cleared my Board Exams of standard Xth.

#the Decade of Fourties – 1941 – 1950 #

Regulars on the blog are well aware that I have been sharing songs sung by Sulochana Kadam for a long time. Our blog statistics page does not mention the total number of songs sung by her. I guess that the correct figure is yet to be confirmed. However we have so far covered more than one hundred songs sung by her. I have noted that coverage of her song has slowed down after her century of songs was reached in the blog.

I am on the look out for songs sung by her that are not yet covered on this blog. Today I came across this song which was for long considered as a lost song. However, a music lover has uploaded this song on internet. It is from the movie ‘Krishna Sudaama-1947’.

Today’s song is from a 90 year old film – Manmohan-1936.

The film was made by Sagar movietone and it was the 3rd Directorial film for Mehboob Khan. The music was by Ashok Ghosh, a very well known name in Bangla filmdom- who had a very enthusiastic and talented assistant- Anil Biswas. The cast of the film consisted of Miss Bibbo, Surendra (his 2nd film), Yaqub, Ashalata (real name Mehrunnisa, who later married Anil Biswas), Ram Marathe, Zia Sarhadi, Bhudo Advani and many others. Lyricist, dialogue writer and story writer was Zia Sarhadi who also did a small role in this film.

You will be surprised if I tell you that this film would not have been made if K L Saigal was not acting in films of New Theatres in Calcutta ! Strange, but true ! Let us see how….

It was in early may (5 may 2026 to be precise) when the blog reached its previous century (blog post number 20200). Today,we are still in the month of may 2026, and we find ourselves reaching next century (blog post number 20300). Two centuries in the same month ! It is like two full moon days in the same month. 🙂

It must be said that reaching two centuries in a month was fairly common for the blog, but the last time this feat was achieved was in February 2018. Prior to that it was achieved in March 2017 and January 2015. This was very common before that. There were as manty as 34 such occasions before 2015. The month of April 2013 was extra special. As many as three century posts were published that month (on 1 april, 14 april and 28 april)! Those were the days when we used to score centuries in 13 and 14 days. The fastest century in the blog is scored in 11 days (song post number 4600 on 9 september 2011).

25 days for a century at a rate of 4 songs a day is quite decent by our present rate of posting. Unlike in the past, most posts now a days are guest posts. It shows that the blog has now firmly become an online collaboration of likeminded music lovers.

Mukesh and his Co-Singers –18

I begin this post with an appeal and a request to all the readers of the blog across the globe.
There is a film “Bheema Mera Haathi” released in the year 1973. Out of the 6 songs in the film, one is a duet of Mukesh with Hemlata titled “Hazar Dil Mein Hon Tho Aise Niklen Woh Armaan”. All my efforts to trace this duet have come to naught. So, if anyone has any information regarding the duet, kindly contact the editors or comment on the post.

I have tried with friends, SLBC and even the composer’s family members to no avail. It now appears to me that the songs were never released on records, and the film too remains unfindable.
