“Kaajal”(1965) was a movie that I knew little about when I was growing up. I watched this movie in 1978 when my went to college and my movie watching spree began with a vengeance. Those days, I only liked “new” movies and songs and scoffed at “old” movies and songs. But I had heard about old movies, so I would go and watch them when no “new” movie was there for me to watch. The old movies tended to run to empty house and so buying tickets for these movies was not a problem. I wondered if a day will come in future when one would be able to watch “new” movies with the same ease, without needing to queue up and black marketeers having a field day. Believe it or not, today we are actually in that situation where one can buy tickets of even brand new movies without needing to form a queue in the movie hall.

Today’s song is from the film “Uljhan” (1942). This was the first of the three same title films. The second came in 1975 and the third was in year 2000. This was the second film by Acharya Art Productions, floated by director N R Acharya. This was after he left Bombay Talkies, to chart out his own path, without either following the splinter group led by S Mukherjee or remaining with the rest of Bombay Talkies staff.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 36
—————————————————————————
This day ten years ago (viz 11 june 2010) saw as many as five songs being covered. Discussing as many as five songs in a day was quite rare those day. This feat was achieved only four times in previous seven months !
Following five songs were overed on 11 june 2010:-
| Song | Movie title-Year | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Jeena kyaa aji pyaar binaa | Dhan Daulat – 1980 | 01 song posted (of 5) |
| Gayaa bachpan jo aayi jawaani | Aankhon Aankhon Mein – 1972 | All songs covered |
| Mere man ke diye | Parakh-1960 | All songs covered |
| Magar ae haseenaa e bekhabar | Dholak-1951 | All songs covered |
| Ham aankh michauli khelenge | Khandaan-1942 | All songs covered |
It is interesting to note that four films (out of five) covered that day are already YIPPEED. “Dhan Daulat”(1980) was on the other end of the spectrum. No other song from this movie has been discussed in last ten years !

Hullo Atuldom
“Amardeep” (1958) had 12 songs 9 of which are on the blog. Le lo le lo gubbaare was the last song posted from this movie exactly two years ago on this date.
Here is the next song in the voice of Asha Bhonsle which is a dance by Vyjayanthimala. It is the opening scene of the movie and comes immediately after the titles are over. It gives the background of the character played by Vyjayanthimala who plays Aruna and her grandfather wants her to marry Pran. But this is an Indian movie where the lady will find someone better (according to her) than the person selected by the family. It is a different matter that since time immemorial, Indian marriages have mostly been arranged marriages where the girl and the boy would hardly know each other till they got married and started family life. And since they began making movies in India, we have had love stories where there is lot of action in the form of family opposition, two people in love with the same person or any other possible obstacles that will help build a movie to close to 180 minutes of running time.
So we can safely say that movies are all make believe. But we still feel that movies reflect real life.

Today’s song is from the film Jwar Bhata-44. It is an important film of the 40’s, because it was the Debut film of Dilip Kumar.
In Hindi film industry, the “Trimurti”of Raj, Dev and Dilip dominated the decades of late 40s, 50s and the 60s- a period of about 25 years in the Golden Age of Hindi films.These three were the most popular, most talked about and the most ‘ín demand’ actors when they were in full form. Each one had a dedicated fixed audience for their films.There were others equally,if not better, actors in this period like, Ashok Kumar, Motilal,Balraj Saqhni, Sanjeev Kumar etc, but these three were different.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 35
—————————————————————————
This date ten year ago, viz 8 June 2010 was a relatively prolific day by the then prevailing standards of the blog. As many as four songs were covered that day. Here are their details:
| Song | Movie title-Year | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Nadi kinaare baithke aao | Jaageerdaar (1937) | 3 songs covered out of 10. The movie made its debut on this date. |
| Bhar bhar aayen ankhiyaan | Samrat Chandragupta (1958) | The movie has been YIPPEED by now |
| Aapne yoon hi dillagi ki thi | Mehndi Lagi Mere Haath (1962) | The movie has been YIPPEED by now |
| Aao jhoome gaayen | Paraaya Dhan(1971) | The movie has been YIPPEED by now |
One can see that four songs from four different decades were covered on 8 june 2010. It was my standard practice in the past to cover around six songs in a day, all belonging to different decades. This practice had become difficult to follow during the last months of 2009 and initial months of 2010 because of disruption due to my transfer. By June 2010, I was finally settled in Nagpur and I was trying to regain the glory days of the blog. And this date was the one when I perhaps decided to shift gears and press the accelerator.
