#the Decade of Nineties – 1991 – 2000 #

(Rajesh Khanna’s 82nd Birth Anniversary)
———————————————–

Today 29th December 2024 is the eighty-second birth anniversary (29.12.2024-18.07.2012) of Rajesh Khanna(29.12.2024-18.07.2012). On this occasion, we are paying tribute to Rajesh Khanna by presenting a few songs picturised on him.

In this post I am presenting a song from the movie “Sautela Bhaai-1996”. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 04.01.1996. I was staying at Kota (Rajasthan) in those days and since the project I was working there was in winding up stage I think I must have been more occupied with the work related activities, since I do not remember to have watched this movie. Even in the later years I must have lost track of this movie, because it is only recently that I came across this movie’s songs while going through the filmography of music composer R.D. Burman. The music for this movie “Sautela Bhaai-1996” is composed by him.

Today’s song is from a Cult Film ” Har Har Mahadev”-1950.

I have mentioned several times here that our family was a Kattar Shiv Bhakt. So, it was no wonder that we all saw every film collectively, which had some connection to Lord Shiva. Film Har Har Mahadev-1950 was afterall a ‘Cult’ film, so there was no count how many times we saw this film. In the later years too, whenever this film came for the 2nd, 3rd or ‘N’th re run, I had seen it.

Vyas etc. playing supporting characters.

Today’s song is from a religious film Prabhu ki Maya (1955).

This film was made by the well known Filmistan studios. It was directed by Vithaldas Panchotiya and the Music Director was Ravi Shankar, for whom it was his only second movie as an independent composer. He went on to do 112 Hindi films composing 796 songs. He also sang 21 songs in 18 films and in addition wrote66 songs in 21 films as a Lyricist. So, what remained was Acting and Directing a film, which he never tried ! He also had a stint as an MD in Malayalam Films with the name ” Bombay Ravi “.

I count the minutes the days the hours. . .
I count the stars. . .

Days, then weeks, then months – on to years and decades. The march of time incessantly continues. Superimposed on this unremitting progression is a calendar that allows us to measure passages of time. The philosophers of yore had no tools other than observation and contemplation, by which they used to measure natural phenomena. And then this measurement and contemplation over long periods of time uncovered patterns of celestial movements which tied into the the design of changing climate on earth. And thus was born the concept of calendar and measures of years. Over a period of time it got refined into a detailed structure that we now see as twelve months and 365 days. Of course with further refinements of leap years and leap centuries to make accurate adjustments to synchronize the this framework with the precise movement of Sun in our skies.

So. Finally it is official.

We are teenagers now, the first step into the growing up years. The childhood years left behind and now the coming of age years are starting.

What started off as a ‘let’s-try-it’ hobby run with the simplest of the simple philosophical musings – “Miley Na Phool To Kaanton Se Dosti Kar Li“, has come of age today and has blossomed into a huge tree with thousands of branches spread out, with roots that are deep and strong, and are full of conviction. A tree that provides shade in terms of solace to the lovers of music, which in turn are spread out all over the globe. This is the world tree of music and songs. This is a tree that has a flavor for every palate, a tree that has fruits of everlasting tastes for the connoisseurs, a tree that conserves and perpetuates that enchanting phenomena that is the lovely Hindi Film Music – this is a tree that has many different meanings and many different treasures for the seekers of pleasure in music. There is a whole universe of music that has  settled itself around this tree. Although the desires abounded for flowers, but when none were forthcoming this direction, the protagonist settled for the proverbial thorns to start with. That humble gesture ensured that flowers of all shades and colors, and also, flower bearers of all tastes and wonders, kept on coming together one by one, till a complete orchestra of performers was formed, and the bandwagon got its name.

Thirteen years and counting. And if you talk of counting, here are some counts that will really make you happy with wonder.
