BHAJAN MALA – GOLDEN 50s (Pushp- 1)
——————————————

I grew up in a joint family of about 20 people including children. My childhood memories are vivid and I remember playing with cousins and enjoying Festivals with the elders. By coincidence ,by 1947-48 our joint family was fragmented, not because of the Partition, but because One Uncle joined Army, the other joined Navy and the third one joined Police. My own father had to go underground to evade arrest, after Gandhi ji’s assassination..He was an RSS worker. We shifted coolly to Banaras and stayed there for an year. Ultimately father was traced and arrested and we were escorted by the police to mother’s town in Maharashtra.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 15)LAST SONG OF THIS SERIES
——————————————————-
All human being like to be always happy. No one wants to be sad, no one wants pain, penury misery and anonymity. There are scores of cases from the film Industry which bring tears after reading about their last days and their sad ends. Not that every artist died in this way. There were hundreds of film personalities who spent their last days in comfort and with their dear ones. No one will remember that, but stories of Riches to Rags and death of an artist in total anonymity saddens the heart.

A composer par excellence, whose creations do never cease to surprise, as one continues to come encounter heretofore songs that seemed to have got lost in the folds of time. This song today is a very old friend from the radio listening days, that dipped below the horizons of memories for some time.

When I first saw Chetan Anand’s ‘Haqeeqat’ (1964), on TV, I was a pre teen kid, not old enough to really appreciate the human pathos and the emotions involved in the storyline. But of course, there are a few passages and images that simply stuck to my mind. Randomly they would pass through the mind’s screen. This would continue for many, many years till the time I revisited the film, and then sat through it for a complete view. This was after I had read a lot about this film, its background, its actors, and its impact on the public mind during those troubled war years of 1960s and early 1970.
