Blog Day : 4972 Post No. : 16847 Movie Count : 4644

I have in my earlier posts mentioned that nowadays I am getting to listen ‘radio’ for at least ‘two to two and half’ hours every day. And mainly I listen the programmes on Vividh Bharati only.

So, in the morning time it is part of ‘ham hai raahi pyaar ke’ and ‘Bharat ki goonj’ and evening times it is part of or sometimes full edition of ‘Shaam sindoori’, ‘Sangeet sarita’, ‘Jaymala’ etc.
Now that is the daily schedule since 2nd November’2020. This has given me the opportunity to listen variety of songs from the yesteryears and even the songs from recent times. I have come across many unheard songs and some beautiful songs even from the eighties and nineties. I will try to share them as and when possible.

Today’s song is from the film Phir Milenge-1942.

The film was made by Minerva Movietone. In 1942, WWII was on its peak. Till that time, the Germans were on the attack, but from 1942 onwards, their decline had started and by 1945 end, both Japan and Germany had lost the war and surrendered to the Allies. However, the damage caused by the war situation continued for a few more years and like all other industries the film industry too took time to normalise its set up.

Today’s song is from the ‘1978’ movie ‘Naya Daur’. This movie had made its debut on the blog on 20.09.2012. However, no song was added to this movie after that one song. In less than eight months the movie will complete a ‘decade’ on the blog after making its debut while still remaining unYIPPEED. 😊

Hullo Atuldom

“Chaandni” (1989) from the Yashraj Films stable was produced and directed by Yash Chopra. It starred Sridevi, Rishi Kapoor, Vinod Khanna, Anupam Kher, Sushma Seth, Mita Vashisht, Anant Mahadevan, Manohar Singh, and Waheeda Rehman and Achala Sachdev in guest appearances. It was the story of Chandni Mathur a young effervescent young lady unsure of her emotions for two gentle men.

This was Yash Chopra’s return to his formula of love stories with good music, locales, and heavy dose of emotions and sentiments. It was very successful and also confirmed Sridevi’s position as a super actress.

It had songs written by Anand Bakshi and set to music by Shiv-Hari. Lata Mangeshkar, Suresh Wadkar, Jolly Mukherjee, Nitin Mukesh, Vinod Rathod, Anupama Deshpande (the humming in the song ‘lagi aaj saawan ki phir woh jhadi hain’), Asha Bhonsle, Babla etc. were the playback singers There is even a Kishore Kumar song in the movie which had 9 songs and the blog has 7 of these.

The above is what I had written on this date, last year, in the post remembering Sridevi. I must apologize for making a wrong statement in there- “Sorry there is no Kishore Kumar song in this film. The song which I thought was by Kishoreda was actually ‘bani tu meri mehbooba’ and it was in Vinod Rathod’s voice”.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 22
————————————————————————————–

The month of february 2012 was a “normal” month by the standard of the blog those days. A typical day of that month saw 6, 7, or 8 songs getting covered in the blog.

23 February 2012 was very much a “normal” day for the blog in the sense that seven songs from seven different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details :-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
5509 Mar gaye ham jeete jee maalik tere sansaar mein Shabaab(1954) Movie YIPPEED by now
5510 Mere lalla ko sulaayegi nindiya Suhaagan(1954) Movie YIPPEED by now
5511 Saagar pe aaj maujon ka raaj Rangoli(1962) Movie YIPPEED by now
5512 Roshan hai tere dam se Devdas(1935) Movie YIPPEED by now
5513 Dekho roothha na karo baat nazron ki suno Tere Ghar Ke Saamne(1963) Movie YIPPEED by now
5514 Tose laage naina Nayi Raahein (1959) 6 songs covered out of 7
5515 Laayi kahaan hai zindagi Taxi Taxie(1977) 3 songs covered out of 5 by now

One can notice that five movies (out of seven) whose songs were represented on the blog ten years ago on this date have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with only two movies that are yet to be YIPPEED and therefore eligible for the Blog ten year challenge today on 23 February 2022.

Today’s song is from the film Sahara-1943 – an almost 80 year old one !

Whenever I rummage through the pages of HFGK issues of the 30’s to 50’s for something,I see a lot of names of actors, actresses, directors, Lyricists, singers and composers. I find that names which are prolific in the beginning became rare and then disappeared. Like waves in the sea, artistes appear and disappear from time to time. Very few artistes have a longer career of more than 25 years. Similarly, some artistes have a very short career, say of just 3 or 4 films.
