Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 14
———————————————————-
Remembering Mohammed Rafi Sahab on his 39th death anniversary :
No need to keep a reminder in the mobile. I come across Rafi Sahab’s name or reference to or one of his songs every day. The figure is at 2955/4845 on the blog’s stats page. The excel sheet of Rafi Sahab’s songs that I have says total 5373 songs. The difference between the two figures is more than 500 songs.

Songs Repeated in Hindi Films – 8
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
The previous post in this series was delayed by about a week or so. And today’s post, I have been saving this medley song to write about this person, but not sure about which date to bring it on. A chance reminder three days ago, brought up this song and this post, almost immediately. But then, other priorities intervened as usual, and this post is late by three days. 🙂
The person I write about, in this post, is Ravi Baswani. Yes, the sidekick companion of Naseeruddin Shah in the cult classic ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro’ of the year 1983. Coincidental that the posts for these two friends are coming up one after the other. And both are in the same series, and both posts are a medley of songs from the earlier years. One difference is the nature and the composition of the medley of songs – I will come to this point again a little later in the write up. And the second difference – for Naseer we celebrated a birthday anniversary, but for Ravi, the occasion is his remembrance day. Yes – 27th July in the year 2010, he suffered a massive cardiac arrest, quite unexpectedly, and was no more. He was in Haldwani, on the way back to Delhi from Nainital, where he had gone for location scouting for his first full length feature film, as a director. In the prime of his health, and on the top with his career in cinema and theatre – leaves a regret in the mind, that it was not a time to go.

[Ed Note: With sincere apologies to the author and the readers. This write up was delivered to the editors much in advance of the blog anniversary date. It is our oversight that we missed posting it on 19th July. The lapse is regretted.]
As the blog turns 11 today, we can celebrate the first step in the double digit age milestone. Numerilogically, 11 means 1+1=2 . Does this mean second stage of second phase ? Or 11 simply means gyarah number ki bus. Mumbaikar’s know that gyarah number bus means ‘to walk on two feet’. Walking walking we have reached the 15000 plus figuratively.
So. . . its “Chalte Chalte Mere Ye Geet Yaad Rrakhna. . . Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. . . Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. . .“

21st July, 1969 – a tiny me was waiting for the arrival of the school bus, around 6.40 am in the morning, at the end of the lane where we lived, in Karol Bagh area of Delhi. Three, maybe four other friends, going to the same school – executing the normal morning routine, with strap bags on shoulders, waiting to espy the school bus that we all recognized oh so well, to take a turn from a crossing about 200 metres away – to come, and to gobble us up, and to carry us to yet another day at the school. I think, it was too early in life to philosophize about the love-hate relationship with education, school and school teachers. It was still kind of an eager fun to travel in the bus and get to a classroom, and spend time watching teachers do their things on the blackboard, for us. Ah yes, the blackboards back then were actually black, and white chalks were then the standard instrument of communication between the teacher and us.

It is the 8th year of my association with our Blog. I do not remember the date but it was in the month of July 2011 when I found this musical Blog. I began my formal association with the Blog by posting my first comment sometime in the last week of July 2011. It was much later I came to know that the Blog had then just completed its third birth anniversary.
Congratulation to Atul ji and his bandwagon for completing today the 11th year of the Blog. Over a period of time, our Blog has transformed into a cooperative movement to propagate Hindi film and non-film music especially of the vintage and the golden periods.

Two signature melodies, one sweet voice,
“Do Panchhi, Do Tinke, Kaho Le Ke Chale Hain Kahaan”
And the voice – Aarti Mukherjee.
Celebrating Aarti ji’s birthday today – she turns 76 today. Greetings and best wishes to her for good health, and many more such celebrations to follow.
