‘Gul Sanobar’ (1953) was produced and directed by Aspi Irani under his banner, Super Pictures. The cast included Shammi Kapoor, Shayma, Agha, Zilloobai, Rajni, P Kailash, Jagdish Kanwal, Nazir Kashmiri, Agha Shapur, Habib, Alka, Ruhi etc.

The story of Gul Sanobar is an ancient Persian folklore which spread to the middle east Arab region and became a part of the bigger ‘One Thousand And One Nights’ of the Arabian Night traditions. I was expecting that the story of Gul Sanobar may have been first staged by the Parsi Theatres knowing their interest in staging many Arabian Night stories. But I could not find any mention of Gul Sanobar being staged by any theatre group. Even Kathryn Hansen, in her book, ‘Stages of Life‘ is silent on staging ‘Gul Sanobar’. Finally, I got a clue from Internet Archive which has posted in its website Parsi Theatre’s booklet of 75 songs in Gujarati ‘Gul Sanobar No Gaayano’ (Songs of Gul Sanobar) which indicates that the Parsi Theatre had staged the play in Gujarati.

#the Decade of Nineties 1991-2000#
———————————————————————
Music Composer R.D. Burman’s Remembrance Anniversary
——————————————————————

Today 4th January 2026 is the 33rd Remembrance Anniversary of Rahul Dev Burman whom we fondly know by his nickname ‘Pancham’.

Rahul Dev Burman was born on 27th June 1939 and he passed away on 4thJanuary 1994 at the age of only 54.

Today, on this occasion, we will listen to a few songs composed by him.

The song in this post is from the decade of nineties. This was a period when Pancham was passing through a lean patch of his career till he bounced back in 1994 with the musical blockbuster ‘1942-A Love Story’.

This song is from the movie ‘Siyasat-1992’. It was directed by Sukhwant Dhadda for ‘Schell International’. Shashi Ranjan and Vinod Thakkar were the producers of this movie. This movie had Kumar Gaurav, Kimi Katkar, Shashi Ranjan, Shakti Kapoor, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Deepa Sahi, Kunika, Gulshan Grover, Alok Nath, A.K. Hangal, Rajesh Puri, Rajhans and others. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 14.01.1992.

‘Siyasat-1992’ has three songs written by Hasan Kamal and composed by Rahul Dev Burman. The playback singers for this movie include Asha Bhonsle, Shailendra Singh, Amit Kumar, and Anuradha Paudwal.

Today I am presenting the first song from this movie which is sung by Asha Bhonsle. I could not locate the video of this song.

A poor quality print of this movie seems to be available on internet, however I have not watched it. I had not watched this movie when it was released.

This is a nice ‘joie-de-vivre’ type of song. Listening to this song reminds us of another composition from Pancham from the movie ‘Paanch Dushman-1973 (later released as ‘Daulat Ke Dushman-1983’). This song ‘samjhaa main kismat khul gayi’ from ‘Paanch Dushman’ was covered on the blog on 21.01.2022.

let us savour this lesser known composition of R D Burman….

Hullo Atuldom

We are on the last weekend for the year 2025. The world has just celebrated Christmas. We will be welcoming 2026 in 4 days. I am sure many educational institutions are closed for Christmas Holidays and (working) parents would have also taken the opportunity to take their wards out for vacations. Here is wishing everyone A Happy Yuletide.

There was a period in the history of Hindi films when three actors viz. DEV ANAND- DILIP KUMAR- RAJ KAPOOR ruled over the film- viewing sensibilities of the Hindi film audiences. There were fans who copied the style of either one or other of these three. Then after a brief period it was Rajesh Khanna who influenced audiences, which was followed by the Amitabh Bachchan wave. Post that we have not seen audiences going crazy about one or other actor, though the entertainment world has had great looking, dancing, emoting, charismatic actors. But none of these could rake up the frenzy as seen in the DEV-DILIP- RAJ period or the KAKA (as Rajesh Khanna was called) or the Big B (as Amitabh Bachchan was called) wave.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 80

Sometime early this year I had posted a peppy number from the movie “Bada Kabootar” (1973). That rare song was the 15th in this series.

Today I present to you another rare and beautiful song “Raaz Ki Ek Baat Hai” again sung by the inimitable Asha Tai. This song is written by Yogesh Gaud and composed by Rahul Dev Burman.

We normally have a feeling of nostalgia towards the films we watched in our youth. We always love their music, their artists and the general experience we watched while seeing those films in the cinema halls of yore. Sometimes, in newer films, we see tributes being paid to them. Occasionally, we find the tributes a bit insipid leaving us uninspired. However, once in a while, a song makes you really feel good and enjoy it while giving you a feeling of nostalgia. Today’s song is one such song.
