Today (1 october 2016) is the 110th birth anniversary of S D Burman (1 october 1906- 31 october 1975). He made his debut as a music director in Hindi movies in 1946 (some half a decade prior to the beginning of golden era of HFM) and bowed out in 1975 (some half a decade before the end of the golden era of HFM). So it can be said that S D Burman was one of those music directors who was in the thick of action for much of the golden era of HFM.

Today’s song is from film ‘Samaaj ko badal dalo’-47- a relatively unknown film. The song is a chorus song, sung by Rafi, Arunkumar Mukherjee and Manna Dey. HFGK does not mention the names of singers, but I got these names from the Rafi songs Excel sheet, corroborated by Muvyz.com and Wikipedia also. The song is composed by Khemchand Prakash. The film is produced by Prakash Pictures of the Bhatt brothers, who had become famous due to their epic films on Mythology like Bharat milap and Ramrajya etc.

September 28th is the date which the connoisseurs of Hindi film music would definitely remember for being the birthday of Lata Mangeshkar, one of the greatest singers born in the 20th century. We are fortunate that she is in the midst of us hale and hearty and continues to sing songs for Hindi films. As per http://www.myswar.com, the last song she recorded was ‘jeena kya hai jaana maine’ for the film ‘Dunno Y2 Life Is A Moment’ (2015). With a singing carrier of over 7 decades with a vast treasure of her songs as well as numerous articles and books on her life, Lata Mangeshkar does not need introduction. In fact, her introduction in a nutshell is ‘meri aawaaz hi pehchaan hai’ (My voice is the identity).
