Today’s song is from the film Aaj ka Hindustan-1940.
The second world war had already begun in 1939 and the British Government had promulgated many restrictions on the Indian people like rationing of food items. rationing of petrol and other essential items. As far as the Film industry was concerned, the Raw Film used to be imported as it was not yet made in India. The Government started a quota system for the filmmakers, based on a formula of films made in an year on average and many related parameters. This created problems for individual filmmakers who made films at random and had no studio of their own.

Today’s song is a comedy duet from the film Alibaba and 40 Thieves-1954.
Stories of Arabian Nights or 1001 Nights are so interesting that for many generations they have been a source of entertainment.Alibaba,Allauddin and Sindbad are the evergreen stories. Arabian Night stories evolved through a story which took place in Persia. King Shahriyar became a woman hater after he found that his wife was unfaithful to him. He not only killed her,but he started marrying a new girl every time and on the second day of Marriage the wife would be killed to avoid unfaithfulness.

Hullo Atuldom
Wishing a very very happy birthday to a singer who has a career of almost 70 or 80 years. I am not sure about the last recorded song by this artist who has been in the public eye from the time she sang her first song, with her older sister, when she was barely 10. But, during the pandemic, in 2020, she came together with many noted artists like S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, Udit Narayan, Kailash Kher, Usha Uthup, Shaan, Alka Yagnik, Sonu Nigam and other 200 artists of India, made a song named ‘Jayatu Jayatu Bharatam’ to make the country unite to beat the pandemic.
Here we are wishing Asha Bhosle on turning 90.

Today’s song is from the Mythological film Laxmi Narayan (1951).
Are you a believer in God ? Well I am. I am a confirmed Theist. I am also a religious person. It is surely not because I have become an old man now, but right from my childhood, I have been a religious person. The atmosphere in our joint family was very conducive to follow the religious path and ways, because of my grandfather and father. Both were experts in Sanskrit. My father had worked as a practicing PANDA (पंडा ) in Kashi (Banares), when he went underground after the Gandhi killing, in 1948-49. So, it is not the case that old age made me Religious like in the proverb ” सौ चूहे खा कर बिल्ली चली हज को ” !
