Today’s song is from a very old film- 92 years old, to be exact – Bala Joban-1934.

An obvious question comes to mind that when today’s readers do not know or even never heard about the old time actors, when the songs are absolutely old style which are not at all likeable and when the singers and the composers test our patience, why should we read about these films ?

These old film articles are not for entertainment purposes, but they are the records for the historical times, reminders of the artists who made the foundation of today’s film industry stronger and which give information on the bygone times, styles of music and singing etc. These matters are valuable and beyond any entertainment or monetary values !

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————

Today’s song is from yet another forgotten and obscure movie of its time i.e. ‘Yeh Khoon Rang Layega-1970’. This movie had made its debut on the blog on 12.10.2018 with its song ‘qayaamat hai teree nigaahon kaa jaadu’.

This first song from the movie was presented on the blog by our Respected Shree Sudhir jee. However, after this first song no song from this movie was posted thereafter, and that might be because of the rarity and non-availability of its songs. Now, couple of songs from this movie have been made available on internet by another good friend Shree D.S. Rathi jee. We music lovers thank him and are grateful for his generously in continuously making such rare songs available for public to listen to.
