Hullo Atuldom

Like they say in some sponsored programs, I shall also say:- today’s song has been selected with the help of my daughter who is known as Peevesie to the followers of the blog. (I always feel we should acknowledge all those who help us). She is the one who pointed out that the director of the film (Paheli 2005) from which today’s song is, was someone who tried his hand at films which didn’t have the regular run-of-the-mill stories.

The director- Amol Palekar- was popular among the film viewers as someone who portrayed the guy-next-door type of characters with finesse, so much so that the audiences felt he was one of them. I am sure we can recall Ram Prasad (in minimum 2 films), Sanjay (also in 2 films of the ’70s), Vinod, at the mere mention of his name, I need not even spell out the names of the films. But, he was also known to play characters with negative shades in films like “Bhumika” (1977), “Khamosh” (1985) and “Teesra Kaun?” (1994). A look at his list of films released after 1980 shows that he was busy into making certain type of films which were diametrically opposite to ‘Naram Garam’ (1981), ‘Jeewan Dhara’ (1982), ‘Shriman Shrimati’ (1982), ‘Rang Birangi’ (1983), & many more such typical films of the ’80s. “Akriet” (1981) in Marathi, was his directorial debut, which was followed at regular intervals by ‘Ankahee’; ‘Thoda sa Roomani Ho Jaye’, and about 20 others, the last of them being the Marathi film ‘We are On! Houn Jau Dya’ which came in 2013 & which he had jointly directed with Sandhya Joglekar. Many of the films that he made are National Award winners. In addition to being an actor, producer, director he is also a trained painter, who has had a few one-man shows, being an alumnus of Mumbai’s J.J. School of Art. He was born in Bombay in 1944 & turns 79 today. Wishing Ramprasad Dashrathprasad Sharma (do I need to mention which film?) a very Happy Birthday.

Coming to “Paheli” (2005), it was produced by Shahrukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment & Gauri Khan has been credited as the producer. It had a huge cast of Rani Mukherjee, Juhi Chawla, Shahrukh Khan, Anupam Kher, Suniel Shetty, A.K. Hangal & Amitabh Bachchan in a cameo. Naseeruddin Shah & Ratna Pathak Shah’s voices were used for the puppets. M.M.Kreem was the music director & Gulzar was the lyricist. Shreya Ghoshal, Hariharan, Sukhwinder Singh, Sonu Nigam, Madhushree & Bela Shende (two new names for me) were the singers used.

Sadanandjii’s post of 15th February 2023 gives us a lot of information about the story, who wrote it originally and the way it was treated by Mani Kaul & later by Amol Palekar. I don’t think I can better that post. So let us get to the song directly.

Regulars of this blog meeting with one another on a one to one basis has been going on from 2010 onwards. It first happened in Nagpur, when Raja ( my long time online acquintance since 2004) decided to pay a visit to Nagpur to meet me as well as another Nagpur based fellow cricket and HFM enthusiast. Friday, 29 october 2010 became the first occasion when I met a blog contributor and it was Raja, who also happened to be the first visitor, first commentor, first guest contributor etc etc of the blog. This meeting that lasted some three hours was a memorable occasion for me. I had mentioned this meeting in a writeup that I posted the next day.

When I was pointed into the right direction, i.e. JK Rowling and Harry Potter, then the mystery dissolved away, and the nickname ‘Peevesie’ came out in a better light. And after spending maybe an hour with her, the significance of the nickname also eased itself into my mind. In the Harry Potter series, Peeves is a poltergeist at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, since c. 993. Fond of mischief and chaos, he is known as the spirit of chaos around the school. And so, picking up from her favorite series of teenage adventures, the daughter of Peevesie’s Mom selected this nickname for herself. Hmmm. . . is it that the daughter of Peevesie’s Mom selected this nickname for herself and was then known as Peevesie, or is it that she picked this nickname and then her mom came to be known as Peevesie’s Mom – it is getting a little mixed up in the order in which the things may have happened.

‘Parineeta’ (2005) is one of the aesthetically better movies of the last decade. I had seen this movie on cable TV, but had liked the movie and songs a lot. The movie, cinematography and the understated treatment of the adapted story from Saratchandra Chatterjee’s classic literary piece, were impressive. It is a glamorously packaged product with the subtle nuances. It is directed by Pradeep Sarkar and had Saif Ali Khan and Vidya Balan playing the lead roles, with supporting cast of Sanjay Dutt, Dia Mirza, Raima Sen etc. Its crisp editing is also a feature that I had noted back than, while watching the film.
