Tribute to Mohammad Rafi on 43rd death anniversary

We come to that day again, when the death anniversary of Rafi Sahab becomes the subject of talk, discussion, posts in the blog, awe-inspiring for learners and a deep-thinking day for die-hard fans like me.  As I grow older, the word ‘fan’ in this context sounds basic and amateur. Not that it is anything great for me to be a ‘fan’ per se, because I am but a speck on this mortal earth, whereas Rafi Sahab’s voice and songs have attained immortality.

From this new year 2023, we made a couple of new year resolutions. Unlike most new year resolutions, we have so far stuck to them. One resolution was, we will have a blog Century post every month. Second resolution was we will have 100 songs every month.

We are nearly halfway into the year 2023. When the year 2022 ended, we had exactly 17300 song posts in the blog. Today (27 May 2023), nearly five months later, we are onto post number 17800 !

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

For some obvious reasons, nowadays I am looking for the songs sung by Bhupinder Singh in his early career. There are many unforgettable songs sung by him in the later period which I hope would be bringing on the blog in the near future. In addition there are some lesser known songs sung by him in the early days of his career which are yet to be represented on the blog.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.85
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (22 April 2013), eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
7951 Pujaari morey mandir mein aao Jaageerdaar (1937) 4 songs covered out of 10 by now
7952 Arshon pe sitaara hai wo Beete Din (1947) 2 songs covered out of 9 by now
7953 Kaahe nainon mein naina daale re Jogan (1950) Movie YIPPEED by now
7954 O parwaane shama ko apni ruswa na karna Shama Parwaana (1954) Movie YIPPEED by now
7955 Aaj aayi bahaar le ke dil ka qaraar Baghdad Ka Jaadoo(1956) Movie YIPPEED by now
7956 Allah ke nek bande Sarfarosh(1964) 2 songs covered out of 6 by now

We observe that five movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (viz on 22 april 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with three unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (22 April 2023).

“Beete Din”(1947) is one of the three BTYC eligible movie today.

#Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Samaadhi-1972)
———————————————————————

In this post we are going to listen to a song from the movie ‘Samaadhi-1972’.

This song seems to be excluded from the movie after its release. One comment on the link of this song suggests ‘this song was there when the movie was released initially’. And this comment also mentions that this song is shown as the ‘naach-gaana’ or ‘party song’ at the ‘dacoits’ head quarters’ or at the ‘addaa of the daaku giroh’ 🙂

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 32
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 2 March 2013, four songs from four different movies (plus one NFS) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7585 Aseer e gham ka bhala phir kahaan thhikaana thha Kamla Jharia NFS(1934)
7586 O paagal premi Saudaamini (1950) 7 songs covered out of 9 by now
7587 Main hoon kali matwaali Panghat(1943) 6 songs covered out of 12 by now
7588 Mausam hai bada mastaana Tarzan aur Hercules(1966) One song covered out of 5 by now
7588 Ae chaand ki zebaayi Chhoti Si Mulaaqaat (1967) Movie YIPPEED by now

We can see that one NFS and four film songs (from four different movies) were covered on this date ten years ago (on 2 March 2013). One movie (out of four) whose songs were covered on that day has since been YIPPEED in the blog. So three of those movies are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (2 March 2023).

28 january 2023 saw song post number 17400 appearing on the blog. Today (25 february 2023) finds us reaching song post number 17500 on the blog.

Yes, this post is the 175th century post for the blog. It has come in 28 days, which equals the number of days taken for the previous century. So this year 2023 has seen two centuries, both clocked in 28 days apiece. It is a vast improvement over the average days taken for the blog centuries of last few years. We are still far off from the all time record of a century in 11 days (achieved in 2011) but things are looking up as far as Blog daily strike rate is concerned.

Today (28 January 2023) is the 16th remembrance day of O P Nayyar (16 January 1926 – 28 January 2007). He ruled the roost in HFM during 1950s and 1960s, and that too on his own terms. Imagine not using the voice of Lata Mangeshkar in his songs and still managing to create great songs. Curiously, he found his playback singer of choice in Lata Mangeshkar’s family itself, in the form of her younger sinter Asha Bhonsle. There is no doubt that it was O P Nayyar who offered Asha Bhonsle the opportunity to become a playback singer second only to her illustrious elder sister.
