Mukesh and his Composers – 41

Today, 22 July is Mukesh’s birthday (22 July 1923 – 27 August 1976).

Much has been written on him in my various posts.

Hence, coming to the next part of this series, we take up the case of composer duo Sapan Sengupta and Jagmohan Bakshi known popularly as Sapan Jagmohan. They are so popular by this name that every time, one is compelled to ponder whether they are one or two people.

Today’s song is a duet from the film Aage Kadam-1943.

The greatest problem with the old films is that many times information on some films is not available at all. Even the film booklet is not available. All that is known about them is what is given in the HFGK. Some of the actors and actresses are not familiar and to get their information is almost impossible. While writing about their songs, this becomes a challenge. We have to then discuss whatever is available at hand.

Hello everyone!

It has been SUCH a long time since my last post here that I’ve forgotten how to even write posts.
