Today 18 july 2024 is the remembrance day of Rajesh Khanna. I know (thanks to media coverage) that he passed away on this date, but it still comes as a huge surprise to me to realise that 12 years have gone by since that date. How time flies. It seems like yesterday when I was listening to Binaca geetmala final on the last wednesday of 1971, when almost every song that got played was picturised on Rajesh Khanna, including the number one song. Then I realise that 1971 was 53 years ago. More than half a century ago. The world has changed considerably from those days.

Three posts in three days! That’s the upside of being restricted to bed. Yes, you have heard it right – I have been restricted to being on bed or a recliner following a major reconstructive orthopaedic surgery to both my feet last week.

So, the current routine is to get up in the morning, and after having a cup of tea, sit down on the recliner with both my feet up in the air, and write a post on some of the rare hindi film songs which have made a place in my heart. These rare songs give me the maximum pleasure and help in alleviating my neuropathic pain to some extent.

It so happens that you have a song in your playlist which you enjoy for the fast pace at which it plays. You start an invisible dance to its beats and shake your legs to its amazing music.

One such song is today’s song which I present to you all. The song is from a 1973 movie Rickshawala, which is a remake of a Tamil movie “Rickshawkaran”, which starred the superstar of Tamil Cinema M G Ramachandran. Rickshawkaran was released on 29 May 1971. It was a major commercial success, with a theatrical run of over 100 days. MGR was awarded the National Film Award for Best Actor for this movie.

Today’s song is from a Muslim Social film ‘Paak Daman’ (1957).

Why I am specifying Muslim social is because it was a film depicting the Muslim social culture in India. India is a country where there are many religions living together for hundreds of years. The major 8 religions in India are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Judaism and Zoroastrianism (Parsee). There are hundreds of smaller religions thriving in India , apart from these.

Today’s song is from the costume film ‘Neelofar’ (1957).

Thousands of films are made as talkie films after 1931 and the tradition has been that just before its release and after it was censored, a booklet of 4-5 pages giving information about the film was published. Interested persons would buy them at throw away price of few Annas to get an idea and details about the said film at a glance. Footpath sellers outside the theaters were seen in earlier days. Later on such booklets of old films became difficult to procure and collectors of such items paid heavy prices for them.

Today’s song is from a social film Albeli-1955.

This is a very rare song and I spent more than a month searching for this song, but could not get it. Finally, on my request I got the audio MP3 format of this song from my friend Syed Zafar Shah ji. He has always been very helpful to me. I have few other well known song collectors like Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, Vishwas Nerurkar ji and Deepak Choudhari ji, who extend their help whenever I request them. I consider it my good luck to know them so well.
