In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1950’ movie ‘Dushmani’. This movie had made its debut on the blog on 05.08.2016 with its song ‘aahon mein basaa hai koi ik baar to aajaa’. This song was presented by our Shri Sadanand Kamath jee. The song presented by him is a nice song to listen to and I had quite listened to it then many times. However none of the other songs from this movie have been posted later so far.

Today’s song is from the film Laxmi Narayan-1951.

In the Hindi Film Geet Kosh (HFGK), you find mention of the Genre of every film like Social, Mystery, Family, Historical etc etc. During the 50’s decade 2 types of films were common, which were categorised as भक्ति प्रधान (Religious) and पौराणिक (Mythological). Most people do not know what the difference is between these 2 categories. Films made on stories from the Holy Scriptures like Ramayan, Mahabharat, Puranas and Vedas are called पौराणिक (Mythological) e.g. Ram Rajya, Bharat Milan, Ghatotkach, Shri Ganesh Vivah etc. Films made on the events connected with or the life of Saints or Bhakts are categorised as भक्ति प्रधान (Religious) e.g. Bhakta Dhruv, Mahatma kabir, Sant Tukaram, Bhakta Pundalik etc etc. One has to remember that Bhakti Pradhan or Religious films are not from Mythology, but Pouranik or Mythological films are religious films as they are connected with the principles of Religion.Laxmi Narayan is considered as the most ideal couple wherein Beauty and Wealth are combined with the Supreme Power. In our day to day life, a couple with very good looks and matching to each other is called a “Laxmi- Narayan” joda.

(12th Remembrance Anniversary Day of Rajesh Khanna – 18th July’2024)

Today on the occasion of actor Rajesh Khanna’s 12th Remembrance Anniversary we pay our tributes to him by posting songs from the movies he acted in.

In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1990’ movie ‘Swarg’. Trying to recollect now, I think this was the last movie of Rajesh Khanna which I watched in the theatres. I was staying at Kota (Rajasthan), and we had watched this movie on a holiday with colleagues from the company I was working in. Later on, as I progressed in my professional career, I had to shift to Bareilly (UP) where I stayed from 1999 to 2004. During this period the movie ‘Aa Ab Laut Chalen 1999’ was released, but I do not remember why I failed to watched it at that time. Subsequently I watched some movies of Rajesh Khanna on TV or on various channels. The latest Rajesh Khanna movies (for me) that I watched a few months ago were ‘Ajnabi-1974’ and ‘Amar Prem-1971’.

Today’s song is from the film Mahasati Tulsi Vrinda-1947.

1947 was a landmark year for India. We got our Independence on 15th August 1947. It was a matter of joy and sorrow, because on one hand we threw off the British rule, but before leaving, the British divided our country on religious line, creating Pakistan for Muslims. This not only affected the lives of Muslims who left India to settle in and develop their own country, it also disturbed almost all forms of business in India, wherever Muslims were involved.

Today’s song is from the stunt film – Hunterwali ki Beti-1943.

This is perhaps the only film in a Hindi cinema,so far, where the same actress has done the role of a young woman in a film and again did the role of her daughter in the same film. There are some Hindi films which double roles have been done by a few actresses, of mother and daughter in the same film. What makes today’s film different is its Title.
