Today’s song is the last and the final song from the film Chhabili-1960.

Every country has some speciality or a peculiar characteristic, which is unique to itself.

For example, the loyalty of the British Citizen to their King/Queen, the extraordinary National Pride of the Japanese, the pride of every American for their rich country etc. So, what is India’s speciality ?

Remembering Mukesh on his birthday, today 22 July.

As most of my posts feature Mukesh, many of my views on his songs could sound cliches. But then there is so much to write on his voice as words fail every time an attempt is made. There are songs on various aspects, emotions and circumstances one faces in life. I could stick my neck out and say that even many of his sad songs bring joyful solace to the heart. For, the voice sans the music and even the literal meaning of the lyrics feels as if a divine entity is trying to convey the many facets of life.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
———————————————————————
(Lyricist – Naqsh Lyallpuri-2)
———————————————————

Today’s song is from the ‘1964’ movie ‘Sarfarosh’. It is a ‘Qawwali Song’ which is my favorite genre of songs. For me listening to ‘Qawwali’ is always exciting and highly enjoyable as they generally have ‘high quality poetry’ in them along with the singing and the music accompanying it.

“Sarfarosh-1964” was a ‘costume drama’ movie directed by Dharam Kumar for ‘United Movies Art, Bombay’. It had Jairaj, Nishi, Jeevan, Jagirdar, Shery, Maruti, Pratima Devi and others. This movie has six songs which were all written by Naqsh Lyallpuri. Music for this movie was composed by S. Mohinder. Asha Bhonsle, Suman Kalyanpur, and Mohd Rafi had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Today’s special post marks the 18400th song to be posted on the blog. It is being posted on 20th July 2024 which marks 52 years since the honey voiced Geeta Dutt left for her heavenly abode, too early at the age of just 41 years old leaving behind three children and a legacy that can never be forgotten by music lovers.

This post also marks her 1001st song to be posted on the group. We normally combine artists century songs with the blog’s century songs but we had erred in counting Geeta Dutt songs in the blog and She was already on 1000 songs. So this song is 1001st song of hers (sort of like a shagun) to mark the 18400th song on the blog.

Geeta Dutt is the fifth playback singer and 10th artist to complete 1000 songs in the blog. Lata, Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar are the other playback singers with 1000 plus songs in the blog. Two music directors duos (Shankar Jaikishan, Laxmikant Pyarelal) and three lyricists (Rajinder Krishan, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Anand Bakshi) are the other artists with 1000 plus songs in the blog.
