Missing Films of 1960s – 11
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

I am supposed to be moving ahead from ‘Mall Road’ (1962), the previous post in this series. But no. Today, I return to another earlier movie that was missing, but now is no longer missing.  I bring a song from a rare film ‘Bapu Ne Kaha Tha’.

It has been a while since my last post here on this blog. I feel extremely guilty for this – and hasten to clarify, as I always do when I get into this situation, that it has nothing to do with any diminution of my love for this blog.

This time I feel doubly guilty because there is a long overdue post from me.

Good day to all in atuldom

So today’s post is not giving any classic vintage rare song. It is one of the run of the mill (chalu, chalta hai) kind of song. It is written by Sameer who has written many traditionally lyrical and poetic songs. But I consider it must have been a little difficult for such a person to write “a not so purist” kind of song. People would consider it the depths of despair to even think of it as a song. But in the words of my daughter it is a very realistic song. A normal middle class person can only promise a Pepsi or coke to his girlfriend. He can only find solitude in a crowded theatre. Lets agree that in the 1960s,70,80s etc that is where we used to encounter most couples who were in love. So what is wrong in expressing it explicitly in a song. To top it where is solitude in our cities now a days?

I always feel that ‘technological advances’ have immensely benefitted all music lovers, because they have made the vast treasure of the HFM accessible for us and this vast treasure is getting enriched day by day thanks to the contributions of HFM lovers.
