Today’s song is from a Mythological film – Shiv Kanya-1954.

The decade of the 1950 was known for 2 things. As we all know, the first thing was that it was the peak of “The Golden Era” of Hindi film music. Secondly, it was also the peak of Mythological and Religious films (124 films in 10 years). So, there was atleast 1 such new film every month continuously for the next 120 months !

When so many Mythological films are made, naturally many stories are repeated in some way or the other. Usually stories from the 18 Puranas, 18 Up-Puranas and 2 Epics- Ramayana and Mahabharat are used for films. Fed up with the usual stories, some filmmakers tried to find unused new stories from the puranas,while some tried to cook up own stories by using the Mythological names and mixing several stories.

———————————————————————

‘AANKHIN DEKHI-1978’ seems to be an obscure movie of its time as I could not find any video of this movie or its songs on internet. Not much information is avilable about the story of this movie or its trivia, except the details given in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980). Rajinder Singh Bedi ji was the director of this movie. It was a ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’ presentation and it was passed by Censor Board on 18.12.1978.

Mukesh and his NFS – 05

Sometime back, I had written about Mukesh’s collaboration with composer Lachhiram Tomar. Here is the said post.

As detailed in the post a 33 second couplet as a background rendition on a female character was all that Mukesh sang for the composer in films. The rendition remains uncredited in the film.

I have already covered the composer and his works with Mukesh in the abovementioned post. As such, this post is being continued in my other series on NFS. Needless to say, the post has to be read in conjunction with my earlier post on Lachhiram.

Mukesh and his Composers – 43

I return with a second consecutive post on an artist who never scored for a full film as a music director.
But, unlike Vipin Mehra of the previous post, the composer in this post is very well known and continues to perform to this day.

I am using the terms music director, composer quite freely and for artists who never scored for full-fledged films. But then as we read this post, things will be clearer.

Today, we shall discuss composer/musician Kishore Desai’s association with Mukesh. I am spared the exercise of researching on Kishore Desai as Sadanand ji has not only written a well-researched and detailed post on his life and works but also met him in person.
