Behzad Lucknowi was one of many Urdu poets who entered Hindi film industry in the 1930s. However, in my view, he was also one of the least visible poet-lyricists among those who had spent over a decade in the Hindi film industry in the 1930s and 1940s. Some of his high quality ghazals like zinda hoon iss tarah ki gham-e-zindagi nahin, tumhaare bulaane ko jee chaahta hai, rehne laga hai dil mein andhera tere baghair are still remembered today. Most listeners of these ghazals would identify these songs with Mukesh, Lata Mangeshkar and Begum Akhtar, respectively, as it so often happens in case of popular Hindi film songs.

Today (31 january 2017) is the 13th death anniversary of Suraiyya (15 June 1929 – 31 January 2004). Regulars of this blog are aware that almost all available songs of Suraiyya have already been discussed in the blog. We are now scraping the bottom of the barrel as far as remaining Suraiyya songs are concerned. The remaining Suraiyya songs are rare and obscure songs and we have decided to discuss them only on the occasions of Suraiyya’s anniversaries, at the rate on one song per anniversary. That way, we may still have songs to take care of next three or four years at least.

I used to get confused among singers where the name of the singer was mentioned as Kalyani or Miss Kalyani. Some songs were also accredited to Kalyani Das. Are they all the same or are they different singers? It was only after reading the interview of Kalyani Bai (Real name: Zarina) which appeared in Shishir Krishna Sharma’s Blog ‘beetehuedin’ some time in 2012 that I could differentiate between songs accredited as ‘Kalyani’ or ‘Miss Kalyani’ between Kalyani Bai and Kalyani Das. In our Blog, the songs sung by Kalyani Bai has been tagged as ‘Kalyani’ whereas songs sung by Kalyani Das have been tagged as such. So there is no same name confusion in the Blog for both the singers.

I had never thought highly of producer-director Kishore Sahu until I read an article written in August 1942 issue of ‘Filmindia’ by Hyacinth (a pseudo name for Susheela Rani Patel) a few months back. Until then, I had come across his name as the director of ‘Dil Apna Aur Preet Paraayi’ (1960) which I had seen in the theatre. Then, I was also aware of him of his association with ‘Kaalighata’ (1951) and ‘Mayur Pankh’ (1954). But in all these films, Kishore Sahu was not in my radar as my attention was more on Shankar-Jaikishan for their melodious songs in these movies.

Today’s song is from the film Hatimtai-56.
Among older generations, reading books, novels etc, other than the school Text books, was considered a gateway to general knowledge and an aid to develop an impressive personality. As times changed, I think this habit has diminished with every new generation and today I find that students do not read anything ( not even Newspapers-except sports and films section) other than school or college syllabus and Guide books. Their general knowledge is below par in most cases. I do not blame them, because the education system in our country has been modelled on such lines that students will only read what brings them more marks. Nothing else. They have no time left for general reading due to college and classes. Additionally parents too encourage only this – not general reading…out of helplessness ! Of course their intelligence and skills have not diminished but have different openings suitable for today’s life-struggle.
