Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 13
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
The more one searches and sifts through the immense ocean that is the Hindi film song, the more are the gems that come back into memory. And the magic of Chitragupt is seemingly unending. A career spanning a little over four decades, and the number of films he created music for numbering close to two hundred, it is little wonder that hidden gems from this unsung composer will continue to appear and amaze us.
Remembering Chitragupt on the anniversary of his passing away (14th January).

Chilly winter greetings to all from a cold, cold Delhi. As I sit and write this post, the minimum temperature that continues to be maintained is in the range of 2 – 4 degrees C. Add to that the fog that keeps the warm sun away from the view. And top it up with rain that has been visiting us off and on. When I woke up today morning, it was drizzling. And the leaves of the trees waving in a brisk breeze told the story that it is going to be another chilly day. And so it has been for the past couple of weeks. Although I enjoy such weather, but there have been other circumstances, associated with the weather, that have kept me occupied and away from the blog activities. But today, we must celebrate.

Silence. . . Silence on the sets

Breakfast. . .
On Sunday (21 Dec), when the gangout happened in Bombay, many things converged together, including a lot of birds of the same feather. And with it also came the ideas around another new series (this one). But more about the series later.

Genius of Jaidev – 20
================
Radio Ceylon gave me a jolt early today morning, to remind me of Jaidev ji’s ‘Punya-Tithi’. How could I, a diehard fan of Jaidev ji’s (rather an air conditioner) fail to present his song on our Blog, on this day, in my series ‘Genius of Jaidev? I have many of his songs partially ready for posting, so I selected this one and hurriedly gave finishing touches for presentation.

phoolon ke rang se

tujhko likhi roz paati. . .
A promise that was made in 1970, I am sure, continues to be pursued. In Aligarh. As the poet turns a graceful ninety today. Yes, it is the ninetieth birthday of Gopaldas Saxena, a litterateur par excellence. A poet that we are more familiar with by his pen name – Neeraj.

It is just past midnight. It continues to be chillingly cold here in Delhi. The standoff is ongoing in the struggle with the beckoning blankets, as the mind is trying its best to continue staying at the keyboard and thwart all the enticements of a cozy quilt. So far so good.

Time to take a breather. Ah, well, not on Atul-Song-a-Day blog. For the celebrations are afoot, and the special songs have to be processed and posted, in time for deadlines.
Talking about deadlines, in the past week to ten days, we have been missing quite a few of them. I was in email communication with Atul ji earlier today. You see, he had informed us well in advance that his family will be with him during the closing weeks of the year, and he would have very little time to devote to the blog activities. Ah yes, when the boss is around, . . . . 🙂

Everywhere we see people are doing a recap or recount of all the things that occurred in the last year. There are people who are doing count down of the songs that released in the year. There are others who are posting photos of the year that was, on the friendly social networking sites. (In this we are aided by the site itself in choosing random photos that was published by us through the year). So I thought let me also see how the year was for me.

Chaandni raaten – Song No. 17
————————————–
chandni raaten
ho. . oo. .
chaandni raaten
sab jag soye
ham jaagen
taaron se karen baaten
ho. . oo. .
chaandni raaten
ho. . oo. .
chaandni raaten
This song has over the years been heard here and there. I was aware this is some remix song of an old song, just like the remix of the song ‘Kitni Akeli Kitni Tanhaa Si Lagi‘ from film ‘Talaash’ (1969). I used to think that ‘Kitni Akeli. . . ‘ song was a Kishore Kumar song and remixed. It was many years later that I heard the original Lata Mangeshkar song composed by SD Burman.
