According to some surveys, about 90 percent of the Indian marriages are still the outcome of arranged alliances. While the parents/elders are involved in the process of the selection of alliances, the ultimate decision are supposed to be left to boys/girls. But in reality, in most cases, under the pressure from the parents/elders, the boys/girls will not go against the selection of alliance by their parents/elders.  In such cases, some newly married couples may soon realize that they are not in love with their spouses after the marriage for variety of reasons. But they continue to live together as the divorce is not a pleasant option. In some cases, over a period of time, a feeling of mutual care and trust set in the married couples.  This is broadly the main theme of the film ‘Dam Laga Ke Haisha’ (2015).

The life lived in this finite world with infinite possibilities is nothing if not the memories collected in the heart and mind. The audio-visual medium, overdose or not, is the ultimate. Some of those lasting memorable visuals are of the silver screen and black & white television screen. I may forget some of the names of those characters and actors, but the emotions conveyed and invoked in those scenes stay with me and have survived the test of time.

Today, I learnt the importance of checking things on the blog before starting to write. I wrote a whole post with full detail. Very Happy, I sent it to Amma for proofreading. She replied – “I think I have already written about this song” and what do you know, “Dil Mein Jaagi Dhadkan” was already on this blog. But I had, already, written a post extolling how the song made me feel and why I loved it. The song was full of love & joy and always made me stop and give it attention. I had heard the song again because it was part of today’s polls in the bracket I mentioned in the “Ande ka Funda” song. And it inspired me to write.

I have had the link and lyrics of this song saved in my files for some months now.  The month of July 2023 was a month of heavy rains and floods in many parts of India.  We had incessant rains in Mumbai also, where it was raining day and night, with a few breathers in between.

How do you judge a song? Especially when you are comparing songs of different genres. Is “My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves” a better or worse song than “John Jaani Janardan” is an answer one can at least attempt.

As per Hindu mythology, the Sun god is travelling in the sky on a chariot pulled by seven horses. After pulling the chariot for a long time, the six horses are tired. It is the seventh horse who remains and continues to pull the chariot signifying it to be the horse of dreams and aspirations for the future. In 1952, Dr Dharamvir Bharati published his novella, ‘Suraj Ka Saatvan Ghoda’. I read the novella in full which is available online. The novella is written in narration style in which the protagonist, Manik Mulla narrates to his three friends, three separate romance stories relating to three girls. What is of interest is that Manik Mulla is not only the narrator of the stories, but he is also the characters in all the three stories who loves these three girls at different points of time in his life. As Agyeya said in his foreword to the novella, ‘Suraj Ka Saatvan Ghoda’ is not the one story comprising three stories, but three stories constituting one story. The author, in his introduction, has revealed that during his early period of writing, he was influenced by Marxist objectives rather than hardcore Marxism. In this novella, some indications of that objectives can be inferred.  The full novella in Hindi can be read here.

Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 12

maiñ akelā hī chalā thā jānib-e-manzil magar
log saath aate ga.e aur kārvāñ bantā gayā
मैं अकेला ही चला था जानिब ए मंज़िल मगर
लोग साथ आते गए और कारवां बनता गया
