Today’s song is from the film ‘Baghdad Ki Raaten’ (1962).
The film is labelled as ‘kalpanik‘, (काल्पनिक) meaning based on an imaginary story. I would have loved to meet the writer of this story, who had such fantastic imagination, but the film mentioned that the story was by the ‘Story Department ‘ of the banner/studio. That explains ! It is not possible to imagine such stories by one single person. The Arabian Night stories were supposed to be told by Scheherazade-wife of the King Shehriar of Persia- to her husband at the rate of one story a night for continuously 1001 nights, to avoid her death. I am sure even she would gladly embrace death after hearing the ‘Arabian Stories’ made by the imaginative story departments of Indian films ! In this one department, we easily defeat the rest of the world’s filmmakers !!

Today’s song is a comedy duet from the film Alibaba and 40 Thieves-1954.
Stories of Arabian Nights or 1001 Nights are so interesting that for many generations they have been a source of entertainment.Alibaba,Allauddin and Sindbad are the evergreen stories. Arabian Night stories evolved through a story which took place in Persia. King Shahriyar became a woman hater after he found that his wife was unfaithful to him. He not only killed her,but he started marrying a new girl every time and on the second day of Marriage the wife would be killed to avoid unfaithfulness.

Today’s song is from a dubbed film Jeevan Nauka-1952.
A cursory look at the Film Index book tells us that that the word JEEVAN is a favourite with film makers.As many as 36 Talkie films were made till 2012 with the word Jeevan at the Title’s beginning. Surprisingly I did not find a single Silent movie title with this word. This of course is not an indication in any way, because silent films used to have several titles in different states for the same film. (Just for the records, the word most used in the Hindi film titles happens to be ” Ek”, which is used in 206 film titles from 1931 to 2012 ! ).

#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #

Today 10th April is the ‘Remembrance Anniversary’ of writer and lyricist Fauq Jami.
Not much information is available about this lyricist and I think he was a forgotten lyricist of his time.
As per information available on some sources on internet Fauq Jami has written songs for three movies i.e. ‘Guzaaraa-1954’, ‘Saawan Ko Aane Do-1979’ and one unreleased movie from the seventies (which we are going to introduced today).

Today (8 march 2023) is Holi, the festival of colour. The mythology and history behind the festival are well known and need not be repeated.
Still there were some facts about Holi that I was not aware of. For example, I was not aware that Holi festival falls on Poornima (full moon day), which is the last day of the month of falgun (also called Phagun). This is in fact the last day of the Vikram Samwat Calender. The next day, viz first day of The month of Chaitra starts is the first day of the new year of Vikram Samwat.

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.
