The name Neetu Singh conjures up an image of a very bright and charming and ever smiling beauty. She started her life in Bollywood at a very young age – she was only 8 when we see her name appear as a child actor, in two 1966 films – ‘Suraj’ and ‘Dus Lakh’.  However, the lasting memories are of her double role of twin sisters, separated on account of their parents’ discord, as Baby Sonia, in “Do Kaliyan” (1968). The image of a small child girl with double plaited hair [‘do choti’ sounds better, no? ;)] is still retained in our mind’s eye singing “Bachche Mann Ke Sachche” in Lata Mangeshkar’s voice.

Fabulous Foot Tappers – 5
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Sometimes it so happens that some song is so well ingrained in memory that it appears as if, oh well, everyone must remember this song.  And further, it simply cannot be so that this song is not yet on the blog.  But then, surprises never cease, right?

This wonderful song is a keen memory from the childhood radio listening days.  As I am browsing through my collection of the 1960s, I come across the 1965 film ‘Sindbad, Alibaba, Alladin’.  The list of songs rang a few bells I just happened to check the list on the blog. Two songs from this film are absolute foot tappers.  One of them is already posted – “Mera Naam Jinny, Soney Ki Ginni”.  But this song, is still waiting to be showcased.  Well, here it is.

Here is a song from the film ABHIMAN-57. The name Abhiman ( Pride ) will remind people of another film of the same name , made in 1973-featuring Amitabh and Jaya. It was on the life of two singers who get married because of music and later get separated also because of music and Pride of one partner. This 1957 film was also about Pride but not about Music. It was a family drama depicting false pride of a girl-destroying her family.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

‘Bandhe Haath-1973’ is a movie that I had watched in a ‘touring talkies’ in a ‘village fair’, 10/12 kms away from the colony-place where we were living at that time in 1974-75.

Since then, two things related with this movie have become embedded in my mind- one – the title song of the film ‘dekho ye mere bandhe haath’ sung by Kishore Kumar, and second is the name and face of O.P.Ralhan.

This song is a special search request from a dear friend Arvinder ji Sharma.  Regular team members would have noticed this name being appended to the email ‘To’ list in recent email exchanges.  I got introduced to him, at first through our mutual friend Zafar Bhai, and then once again the threads met thanks to AK ji (of SOY) when he invited us for a get together.

There is an email from Avinash ji today morning wherein he has commented about the pace of posting in the current couple of weeks.  I quote – “. . . and this is where all my daily routine is getting affected, because the blog and the posts is my biggest motivation and new posts are not coming at earlier pace (leave alone my contributions 🙂 even others’ are very less, no doubt, as you had said our BOSSES must be having some other priorities#”.  So not exactly taken by any surprises, still it is heartening to note that the daily routine of our fellow travelers is entwined with the set of daily posts that appear on this blog. I know there have been similar discussions and comments in the past.  And the spirit continues. 🙂
