Today, January 5, 2025, is the 44th Remembrance Day of Ramchandra Narhar Chitalkar, popularly known as C Ramchandra as a music director and Chitalkar as a playback singer. He regaled the connoisseurs of Hindi film music with his melodious musical compositions in the 1950s and 1960s. He was the pioneer of introducing popular foot-tapping songs with western musical influence and western musical instruments like saxophone and guitar in his compositions as early as in the 1940s. At the same time, he was composing classical raag-based as well as folk-based songs. He was trained in Hindustani classical music for six years first under Vinayakbua Patwardhan and later Shankarrao Sapre.
Despite producing many melodious songs especially in the 1950s, it is unfortunate that C Ramchandra did not get any award – whether National Film Award or Filmfare Award as a music director. The first Filmfare Awards were announced in April 1954 for films released in 1953. But his film, ‘Anarkali (1953) was not in the reckoning for the best music director’s award. His film, ‘Aazaad’ (1955) and ‘Paighaam’ (1959) were nominated for the Filmfare Award in best music director category but did not win. But the fact remains that many of his melodious and rhythmic songs of 1950s are still popular among the current generation which itself is a great award to a creative genius.

Today, December 10, 2025, is the 24th Remembrance Day of Kumudlal Ganguly, well-known by his screen name, Ashok Kumar (13/10/1911 – 10/12/2001), the first super star and the Bhishma Pitamah of Hindi films. He was conferred the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 1988 for his contributions to Indian Cinema and Padma Bhushan Award in 1999.
Ashok Kumar was the eldest among four siblings and his father, a practicing lawyer in Khandwa wanted him to follow his profession. He was admitted to a law college in Kolkata where he may have been influenced by New Theatres films thus creating his interest in cinema. But his interest was confined to the technical side of the film making. He joined The Bombay Talkies as a laboratory technician where his brother-in-law (sister’s husband), Sashadhar Mukerji was a sound engineer and production manager in 1934.

#The Decade of Eightees – 1981 – 1990 #

Today 8th September 2025 is 93rd birthday of legendary singer Asha Bhonsle(born on 08.09.1933). We are all aware of the accomplishments of this voice/ One cannot imagine our HFM (for me Marathi film music too) without her voice. She has been ruling the hearts of music lovers for over seven decades.

Today, August 19, 2025, is the 6th Remembrance Day of a ‘ruhaani‘ music director, Mohammed Zahoor Khayyam Hashmi (18/02/1927 – 19/08/2019), better known as Khayyam. His musical career can be divided into three parts. The first part (1948-67) was his struggling years during which he mostly got low budget films. In the second part (1967-74), he took sabbatical from the Hindi film industry and concentrated in composing non-film Hindi songs. In the last part of his musical career, (1974-2013) he rejoined his musical career in Hindi films during which he had a successful stint both financially and career-wise.
Khayyam was born in Rahon in Nawanshahr district (now Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar) of Punjab in a Muslim scholar’s family who loved poetry and music. There used to be a regular gathering in his father’s large library room to discuss poetry and music which included films as well as classical music. All the family members were highly educated. His father expected Khayyam to follow suit. But he was glued more to the gramophone record player listening to film songs than to his schoolbooks (akin to the addiction to smartphone among today’s school going children) as he wished to become an actor-singer like K L Saigal, his idol.

YouTube is an American social media and online video sharing platform owned by Google. It is an amazing tool that helps us in our blogging expedition. Based on our previous search history, it keeps suggesting links to videos.
That means, for followers of ATULSONGADAY, YouTube will keep suggesting videos of Hindi Fillum Sangeet. The suggestions may also be based on any particular actor, movie or artist, specially if we have looked up for songs of the concerned artist.
So, as I was browsing through YouTube yesterday, I came across a song which had Sunny Deol trying to shake a leg in tandem with Sridevi for a song that was playbacked (I am sure there is no such word in the English dictionary) by Suresh Wadkar and Asha Bhosle. It had Meenakshi Seshadri & Anil Kapoor, standing among the people who were watching the proceedings. On looking up for details, on our blog of course, I found that it has found its place on the blog in 2022 with this post by Avinashji.
