Greetings to Vinod Khanna on his 68th birthday. (6 october)

A commanding personality to contend with on screen. In whatever role he appears, he has the capacity to be the center of gravity in every scene. In the last scenes of ‘Mere Gaon Mera Desh’ (1971), appearing as the sardaar (leader) of a gang of dacoits, he is down and beaten, by Dharmendra. Even in that scene, he exudes strength, and gives the perception of being the stronger.

SONGS FROM ARTISTE NAME FILMS…..Song No. 9
———————————————-

Today’s selected song is from film KAMLA-1946.

Now, one may start wondering who is Kamla ? This is because the actress KAMLA KOTNIS was not a very prolific or well known actress and her career in Hindi films was also very short. However, she has the unique distinction of being the FIRST ever Heroine of DEV ANAND in his Debut film- Hum Ek Hain-1946. So, as long as Dev Anand will be remembered, Kamala Kotnis’s name will also be remembered.

Continuing on my series of articles on some of the offbeat films (also called parallel or middle cinemas), I have taken up for discussion an NDFC promoted film ‘Thhoda Saa Roomaani Ho Jaaye’ (1990). The film was produced and directed by Amol Palekar. The main roles were played by Nana Patekar, Anita Kanwar and Vikram Gokhale with actors like Banwari Taneja, Dilip Kulkarni, Riju Bajaj, Arun Joglekar and Deepa Lagoo donning the supporting roles. The film was extensively shot in and around Pachmadi in Madhya Pradesh. The film was critically acclaimed but flopped miserably on the box office. I get an impression from the films clips in two parts available on YT that the it was later released on Doordarshan.

Sandhya Mukherjee – a voice that is comparatively heard less frequently on the Hindi film screen, is a big name in the world of Bangla music and Bangla film music. In fact her association with Hemant Kumar as a duet singer, is almost as legendary as the on screen pair of Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen. Majority of the duets of these two actors in Bangla cinema, have been playback sung by these two singers.

Greetings to Sandhya ji on her 83rd birthday (4th october).

During my recent communication with Pradeep ji when we were appreciating each other for our ‘love for music’ and I mentioned about how I feel fortunate to have a company of people like ‘Team Atul members’, I wrote to him that “I always thank god for getting me connected to people like you and others in our team ,

It is all by destiny 🙂 and our “musical karmas’”

In reply to this Pradeep ji wrote to me;

“I like the term “musical karma” :). One of a very well known HR trainers that I know here (he also has a filmi connection, he acted as Manisha Koirala’s father in the movie Bombay), once told me that I would describe you and me as “Rasikas of life”, I liked that term too.. So we are all Rasikas of life and music :)”
