Happy Independence Day to all!!!
Today (15 august 2021),We are celebrating the seventy-fifth year of our hard-fought freedom that we got on 15th August in 1947. We can breathe in this free air now because many had sacrificed their present at that time for our future. There are many known and too many unknown freedom fighters who laid down their lives to see India as a free nation. The nation has grown up to seventy-four years old now and is stepping into the seventy-fifty year of its life.
Many goals were fulfilled and many remains unfulfilled. ‘Swaraj’ for all is still a distant dream and so is the dream of the basic needs for all i.e., ‘roti, kapda aur makaan’.
With hopes alive we keep moving year to year achieving growth in some areas and falling short in some areas, but the spirit of ‘unity’ that binds us is strong and it is becoming stronger and stronger day by day. That is inspite of ‘divisive forces’ leaving no stones unturned to create unrest in the country over petty issues, causingmresulting unrest here and there.
Today is the day when we all come together and pay our tributes to our freedom fighters and reiterate the pledge of ‘long live the freedom of India’ and ‘long live the republic of India’.
It is customary for us to cover patriotic songs from Hindi movies on thi occasion. We still have lots and lots of patriotic songs not yet showcased on the blog despite the bog coering many patriotic songs during the last 13 years o its eitene.
When we talk of patriotic songs in Hindi movies, the movie personality’s name that immediately comes to our mind is actor-producer-director Manoj Kumar.
Manoj Kumar made several movies with social and patriotic themes which always have created some of the memorable and timeless classic songs glorifying our motherland. Today we will be listening to one such song from his movie ‘Clerk’ made in 1989.
I was staying at Kota (Rajasthan) (1988-1996) then and I remember that I had watched this movie with my boss and colleagues from my office.
As I have mentioned in my earlier posts on the blog, I have grown up watching many movies of Manoj Kumar (movies from Black & white era) and the latest in the seventies and eighties.
Though I didn’t remember all about this movie ‘Clerk’ now, but I remember this movie had many shades of ‘Roti, Kapda aur Makaan’ in it, in its story as well as picturization of the songs. For that matter the picturization of songs had always been in unique style of Manoj Kumar in his movies.
I also do not remember when today’s song appears in the movie. This song is a patriotic song celebrating ‘15th August’ or ‘pandrah August’ and the spirit of freedom.
Today’s song is sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Mahendra Kapoor. Lyrics are written by Manoj Kumar himself (he was also the producer, director, and editor of this movie).
Music for this movie ‘Clerk-1989’ was composed by Uttam Singh-Jagdish Khanna.
I do not remember now on whom the song had been picturized. I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its’ songs.
Let us listen to the song now.
Once again wishing all of our readers a ‘very Happy Independence Day’ …
