So we are at it again. For the 161st time in the blog ! We arrive at post number 16100 in the blog with this writeup !

I have mentioned it in the past that we no longer look forward to these century posts with the same eagerness as in the past. This applies not only to blog centuries but also to the centuries of artists. At this moment, a good number of artists are into their ninetees. I propose to take them all up to their respective centuries after we are done with this blog century.

This post too takes up one such case. The artists in questions are Shankar Jaikishan. If some artists are in their 90s, then there is one set of artists who are in their 990s- 999 to be precise. This post sees them break into the four figure mark. We have had singers (four) and lyricists (three) who are in four figures in the blog. Shankar Jaikishan music director duo join them today and become the first music directors to reach 1000 songs in the blog.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 99
———————————————————————————–

This day ten years ago (viz 15 December 2010) was a wednesday, viz middle of the week. I was based at Nagpur. After initial struggle early in the year for settling down, I began to post songs at an average of 5 songs a day from
July 2010 onwards. Then there was a temporary slowdown in November 2010. I picked up pace again in december 2010. I notice that I had covered as many as seven songs on 15 december 2010. This was one of the seven occasions in the month when I posted as many as seven articles in a day. The first post appeared at 7:13 AM and the seventh at 9:27 AM. That is the kind of productivity I was capable of ten years ago. ! 🙂

Here is the list of the songs covered that day:-

Blog post number Song Movie Year Remarks
3346 Balam mohe chhedo naa Daasi 1944 6 songs covered out of 11
3347 Gaaye jaa geet milan ke tu apni lagan ke Melaa 1948 YIPPEED by now
3348 Dharak dharak tere bin mera jiyaraa Singaar 1949 YIPPEED by now
3349 dil ki duniyaa ujad gayi Shair 1949 YIPPEED by now
3350 Taaraa toote duniyaa dekhe Malhaar 1951 YIPPEED by now
3351 O chaand jahaan wo jaayen Shaarda 1957 YIPPEED by now
3352 Jalti huyi jawaaniyaan Bambai Raat Ki Baahon Mein 1967 One song out of 5 covered

One can notice that five out of 7 movies whose songs were covered ten years ago have since been YIPPEED.

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 116 #
——————————————

Regulars on the blog must have noticed that nowadays I ’am focusing on ‘one-song movie’ viz movies that are represented in the blog by just one song.
When I took this mission I mainly wanted to focus on movies from the ‘Melodious Decade’ or ‘the golden era’ years i.e. 1951-1960, and I will continue with it in the future as well.

However, the song I am going to present today is not from a movie of fifties (1951-1960), but it is from one of the movies of ‘seventies. This movie made its debut in the blog twelve years ago in 2008. After that there has been no activity in the blog as far as this movie is concerned.

Today, December 13th 2020 is the 34th Remembrance Day of Smita Patil who today would have been 65 years of age, perhaps donning the hat of a director.

What an incredible filmy journey Smita Patil had in a short span of about 12 years! She acted in 70 Hindi films of which 18 films were new wave films. In addition, she acted in about a dozen non-Hindi new wave films. At the age of 23, she got her first National Award for the Best Actress for her role in ‘Bhumika’ (1977). After 3 years, she was bestowed with another National Award for the Best Actress in ‘Chakra’ (1980). At the age of 29, she was one of the juries in the Montreal International Film Festival (1984). At the age of 30, She got Padma Shri Award.

Sometime in September 2019, there was an article written by Khalid Mohammed in ‘Mumbai Mirror’ which highlighted the plight of 92 years old music director and musicologist, Vanraj Bhatia. He was penniless and was struggling to meet his daily requirements including his medical expenses. He was mostly bedridden. He had not done his medical check-up for a long time due to paucity of money. To meet his daily expenses, he had started selling his old antique utensils which he had collected over a period of time.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 96
———————————————————————————–

25 November 2010, the date exactly ten years ago was a day when six songs were covered in the blog. But unlike earlier months of the year when all six or seven songs got covered before 10 AM, this day was a struggle. The first article (post number 3251) was posted at 8:39 AM. The sixth and final post of the day appeared in the evening at 7:44 PM. So it was a struggle, rather than a breeze, to publish the day’s quota of songs on this day ten years ago.

Here is the list of six songs that were posted on 25 November 2010:-

Post number Song Movie (Year) Status of songs of the movie
3251 O pardesiyaa pyaar ki bahaar leke Bahaar (1951) Movie YIPPEED
3252 Tod ke do nainon ka taalaa Daakaa (1959) 4 songs covered out of 6
3253 Dil apna aur preet paraayi Dil apna aur preet paraayi (1960) Movie YIPPEED
3254 Jai Raghunandan Jai Siyaram Gharaana(1961) Movie YIPPEED
3255 Neend ud jaaye teri chain se sone waale Juaari(1968) Movie YIPPEED
3256 Tum se bichhad ke chain kahaan ham paayenge Maharaja(1970) 2 songs covered out of 5

We can see that four movies out of six whose songs were discussed have already been YIPPEED by now. So songs of only two movies, viz “Daaka”(1959) and “Maharaja”(1970) are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (25 November 2020).

“Rampur Ka Laxman”(1972) was one movie that had caught my imagination thanks to its songs played on Radio Ceylon. I did not get to see this movie during its time. I would have dearly loved to watch this movie during its time but that did not happen.
