Today’s song – it is a Bhajan – is from the film Patit Paawan-(1955).

The “Same Name Confusion” is applicable not only to artistes and others working in films, but it fully applies to Film Titles as well. In fact, film titles are more of a culprit than the people working in films, because the incidence of repetitions is several times more in film titles. A field where the Same Name film is made in 7 different years is more dangerous than the same names of artistes, which may not be more than 3 or 4 operating in the same period to cause confusion. That is the reason a film should not be mentioned without its year in which it is censored/ released to avoid confusion.

Today’s song is from the film Akash Pari (1958).

The film industry is a Gold mine for some people and it is a big crater of Mud for some people. It is not that a well established famous film company or a filmmaker does not suffer loss due to a flop film, but new entrants, who enter this field with a hope to make a lot of money, frequently end up with unforeseen obstacles which forces them to dump their filmmaking adventure midway.

(A tribute to Singer Mukesh on his Remembrance Day 27th Aug’2023)
——————————————-———————————

Readers of this blog are aware that this year is the ‘birth centenary year’ of the legendary singer Mukesh (22.07.1923 – 27.08.1976). Earlier we had a few posts on the blog for the birth centenary celebrations. When our respected Sudhir ji and Mahesh ji started presenting posts with Mukesh songs I was under the impression that there will be post on every day starting from 22nd July to 27th August (which is Mukesh’s Remembrance Day) since many Mukesh songs are yet to be posted here. That did not happen. But there were some Mukesh related posts till his birth anniversary …

As per Hindu mythology, the Sun god is travelling in the sky on a chariot pulled by seven horses. After pulling the chariot for a long time, the six horses are tired. It is the seventh horse who remains and continues to pull the chariot signifying it to be the horse of dreams and aspirations for the future. In 1952, Dr Dharamvir Bharati published his novella, ‘Suraj Ka Saatvan Ghoda’. I read the novella in full which is available online. The novella is written in narration style in which the protagonist, Manik Mulla narrates to his three friends, three separate romance stories relating to three girls. What is of interest is that Manik Mulla is not only the narrator of the stories, but he is also the characters in all the three stories who loves these three girls at different points of time in his life. As Agyeya said in his foreword to the novella, ‘Suraj Ka Saatvan Ghoda’ is not the one story comprising three stories, but three stories constituting one story. The author, in his introduction, has revealed that during his early period of writing, he was influenced by Marxist objectives rather than hardcore Marxism. In this novella, some indications of that objectives can be inferred.  The full novella in Hindi can be read here.

15th August, 2023 – Independence Day

“2023 15 August

As we know, India is going to celebrate 77th Independence Day on 15th August 2023 and this day marks the memory of the end of 200 Year British Rule. On this day, all the religious leaders, political leaders, prominent personalities and Students deliver Independence Day Speech 2023 and pay tribute to freedom fighters.”

This is the result Google showed on searching 15th August, 2023. Fair enough. I thought it to be this way and the sitting diety of the World Wide Web is also correct and succinct. This diety has almost run its course and is in the final leg of its life circle “as a diety”. We have relied on it long enough and it served us best as it could.

So we commemorate India’s 77th Independence Day and pay tribute to freedom fighters, with this song from the film “Minister” (1959). As the title suggests, the movie must have been on politicians.

Today’s song is from the stunt film Miss Good Night-(1960).

C grade stunt and action films were popular in a section of society, all over India, right from the Silent film era. This type of ” Maar-Dhaad ” films reached the Popularity peak during the 40s and the 50s, but by the beginning of 1961 onwards such films were less popular and within a few years the C grade stunt/action films were a thing of the past.

Hullo Atuldom

13th August is a day when a few beautiful Bollywood ladies have their birthdays.
If Sridevi had been among us, her fans & the various channels would have gone crazy showing her films, songs, dances etc. on her 60th birthday. But that is not to be as she is lost to us her fans and we can only think of her, enjoy her songs etc.
