Archive for the ‘Rafi-Asha Bhonsle duet’ Category
I was unable to discuss any songs whatsoever in the last few days. As a result, I have fallen short of the usual daily targets that I have set for the blog. From today onwards, things will hopefully limp back to normal.

Dara Singh needs no introductions. The name, the face and the physique is very familiar to more than six generation of Hindi film audience, and especially the fans of Indian free style wrestling. Born on the 19th November, 1928, Dara Singh belongs to a Jaat Sikh family of Amritsar. As a teen ager, he grew into a gangling and muscular young man measured in at 6 feet and 2 inches, and the move for becoming a wrestler was almost natural. Trained in the traditional akhaaras of rural Punjab, he was very active in the wrestling circuit in the 40s and 50s, in India, as well as outside India. He is one wrestler who caught the fancy of the general public, and has been a popular figure in professional wrestling till 1983, when he retired from it.

Yesterday this blog reached 5000 songs. Today is 14th november, which is celebrated as the children’s day in India. The day is over and it is night time, and not a single song has been discussed on this occasion !
No, I have neither run out of steam nor I have forgotten about this day. In fact I ensured that the 5000 th song was discussed one day advance so as to keep 14th november free for children’s songs. It is just that I was neglecting several important tasks which I completed in the day time. Now I have time to discuss songs for today. It may be too late for the real children, but those who are young at heart (which includes lots of readers of this blog), the day is not yet over. So I will try and discuss a few songs on the occasion as long as it is still 14th november in India. so I still have more than four hours at my disposal. 🙂
