Continuing with the Melody-Yatra of the 50s, today I present a song by Shamshad Begum and chorus, from film Ustad Pedro-59.The song is composed by C.Ramchandra.I know some of you must be smiling discretely and murmuring,”laut ke buddu ghar ko aaye”, when I present a C Ramchandra song. But the fact is one can not talk about the 50’s music without mentioning C Ramchandra !

Today (16th October 2016) is the birth anniversary of Chitragupt, yesteryear music composer.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Chitragupt is one of the most under-rated composers of the Hindi film industry. When you think of composers of the golden era of Hindi music, the names that come readily to mind are Naushad, SD Burman, Shankar Jaikishen, OP Nayyar, C. Ramachandra, Roshan, Salil Chaudhary, Hemant Kumar , Madan Mohan etc. Maybe even Ravi.

Today (16 october 2016) is the birthday of Hema Malini, MP from Mathura.

I had been to this show last month here in Bangalore where she was in chat with Kabir Bedi. (I had mentioned this in the post on Dev Anand’s birth anniversary.) It made my hair stand on end (as they say in Hindi- rongte khade ho gaye!)to see my favourite, since I was a child, at such close proximity. I felt like a kid once again. They played a clip from “Seeta aur Geeta”, the one where Manorama goes to the police station with Satyen Kappu to coax a very naughty Geeta to go home with them. The scene with the dialogue-“neeche aa beti.” To which Geeta replies: “oopar aa moti”. My mother used to tell me that as a child I had caught this dialogue and kept repeating it from the time we stepped out of the theatre after seeing the movie.
