The year 2025 is ending soon, and a quarter of the 21st century is over. This year has gone by very fast for me, with so much travel. Too much travel in fact that I have lost count. 6 weddings in close family and only one of them in greater Mumbai, which is a record.Mullah ki daud masjid tak, so we travel to Belgaum every time. Add to that visit to UK, plus a visit to Nanded. Another visit to Nanded is due before the end of the year. A 2 day trip to the good old Bangalore. See I forgot the Pune visit for yet another wedding in this melee. Throw in a combining of holiday/relaxation stops to Lonavla and Mahabaleshwar, here you have a full calender.

Today, November 6th is the 40th Remembrance Day of Sanjeev Kaumar, (09/07/1938 – 06/11/1985), one of the most versatile actors of Hindi films and the two-time National Award winner. He was popularly known as Haribhai among his close friends which was derived from his real name, Harihar Jariwala. He was the first one from his family to step into the films on the basis of his talents, eventually becoming an icon of Hindi cinema. I have watched his performances in films for the first time in ‘Shikaar’ (1968) in the role of a calm and calculated police inspector followed by ‘Jyoti’ (1969) in a lead role. I was impressed with his performances in these two films which appeared different from his other contemporary actors.

“Maano Na Maano”(1955) alternatively titled “Believe it or not” and “Andhkaar” was produced by Pranlal K Doshi and directed by B K Adarsh for Movie Entertainers, Bombay. HFGK, in its footnote describes this movoie as Indian’s first psychological drama. The movie failed at the box office so spectacularly that information about its star cast too is not known. The music director Hansraj Bahl provided HFGK the names of some actors as Satish, Chitra, Baldev Mehta and Naaz. That is all the information that is available about this movie.

Today’s song is from an 85 year old film- Paak Daman-1940.
The year 1940 was the end of the first decade of Talkie films. From 1931 to 1939 most of the film music was made and sung by people who were experts in Classical Music. Classical music has never been the area of common people. It was born in Temples and nurtured in the Darbars of Kings and Nawabs. When film music relied heavily on classical mode, it became an imposition on the masses. Luckily, from the last 2 years of the 30’s, film music started changing and the emphasis shifted to traditional and Folk tunes over the classical.
